A friend had a someone set up a website in Wix for a small community group. After six months, the site still didn’t show up in Google so I offered to take a look. In two minutes with a Google search I figured out he had never checked the ‘allow Google to index your website’ box. Was there a menu and a photo, a few pages and headlines? Yes. But they had never set up meta descriptions, keywords, style sheets, color palette, featured images, and so much more. They had obviously never tested it for mobile either. It was a hot mess, and made me realize that just because you can set up a website in Wix doesn’t mean it will work. My experience working in multiple Content management systems meant I could fix all the stuff he didn’t even know needed to be done. I was kind of shocked that someone could launch a site without first completing a run-through list.
