Customizable Galleries
Whether you are a graphic designer, illustrator, photographer, painter, or all of the above, you'll want a gallery to show off your portfolio. Wix provides the option to display high-quality images and video in a completely customizable gallery. In fact, there are over 30 galleries to select from, ensuring that you'll be able to find the perfect match for your creative vision.
Beautiful Blogs
Regardless of your profession, a blog is a perfect tool to build your brand. Not only does it let you connect with your audience and put you in charge of telling your own story, it can also help your work go viral. Wix can help you find a beautiful layout for your blog and ensure that it looks great on any device. Best of all, with Wix SEO you'll be on track to get your work at the top of search results and in front of the people who can take your career to the next level.
Online Store and Bookings Integration
You can create an online storefront that’s not only beautiful, but also easy to manage. Wix places all the power in your hands, allowing you to highlight your products while maintaining inventory, taking payments, offering discounts, and customizing your shipping.
But don’t limit yourself to just selling products. Thanks to Wix’s booking system, you can allow your clients to book classes, workshops, and appointments via your website. A mobile app makes it easy to directly take and manage bookings directly from your phone, and combined with Google Calendar, syncing and automatic client reminder emails means no one will miss their booking.
So if you’re a photographer, you can not only sell your prints, but also start teaching photography workshops or book out photo sessions. Artists and crafters may want to do demonstrations as an extra revenue stream, in addition to selling their own art. With Wix, there’s no limit to how high you can soar.
Events Feature
Want to make sure your fans know about your next exhibition or book signing? Wix has the ability to create, customize, and share email invites that will look spectacular on desktop, mobile, and tablets. Not only can you track RSVPs, but you can even sell tickets directly from your own website.
Video and Music Players
With Wix, you can showcase any creative talent and take charge of your earnings. In particular, musicians and videographers can use Wix’s features to not only show off their work but profit from it. Their customizable music player lets fans listen, share, and buy music directly from your site—with no commission. You’ll even gain access to analytics showing which tracks people are listening to and downloading the most.
For videographers, you’ll enjoy your own branded video channel where you can sell, rent, or offer monthly subscriptions to your fans. Again—commission free.
Special Access for Web Designers
If your creative business is designing websites for others, Wix has that covered as well. They can help you grow your freelance career by letting you deliver professional websites to your clients. Creative freelancers can enjoy access to professional resources, gain priority support from Wix, and be first in line to test out new projects and features. Additionally, joining Wix can help you network through a community of like-minded designers, both in-person and at Wix events around the world.
