What do you mean? do people still watch in the original speed?
Brah I NEVER watch anything at 1x anymore!!
*Mistake number one: Don't use outdated link and use this link for FREE signup **acortar.link/WixSite** Number two will be that you should not go for free website despite it is completely free because it looks awful with wix logos and ads running on your website. Premium plan is cheap with only 8$ month, plus they have sales every week.*

Oh my gosh I thought this was a normal video and then BOOM! I got to #7 and I almost fell out of my chair I was so surprised. I don’t think I’ve heard something so shocking before in my life. I never would’ve thought about putting my name, address or telephone number on my business website before that’s just genius and so unique. Just WOW pure WOW!
Here's a quicklist for ease of reference:
01 - No mobile version
02 - Mobile header too big
03 - No call to action
04 - No information about you
05 - No map
06 - No email subscription
07 - No NAP (name, address, phone)
08 - Broken links
09 - Slow websites (reduce image quality)
10 - Poor navigation header
11 - Too many fonts
12 - No social networks
13 - No/mistitled logo png
14 - No blog
15 - No internal pages
16 - No google analytics
17 - Low quality pixelated pictures
18 - Having ads on your website
19 - Bad domain name
20 - Unreadable fonts
21 - No brand description
22 - Having music playing
23 - Not using exit-intent popups
24 - Not seo-ing your website
Some really good info in there. Particularly the blog and internal links. However, "Number 7 is going to surprise you" is a really cheap approach. Your content is better than that.
Thank you!
I almost didn't finish the video because of that line
THE 25th MISTAKE - "Wishing" you had a web site but NEVER acting upon your desire to build a site or your business..
THE 26th MISTAKE - Telling all your friends and acquaintances about you ingenious business idea but NEVER actually building or acting upon it.
The best way to kill your dreams is to start blabbing your ideas to anyone who will listen.
Feeding yourself dopamine through talking about false dreams can give you the same emotional enjoyment as actually pursuing your dreams thus, why you hear so many people talking about things they will never actually achieve. (great TED talks about this topic)
GREAT INFO. Thank You!
I have been watching UA-cam like others most of my life and this is the first time iv felt I wanted to comment on a UA-cam video you have really just helped me and my business, thanks for this ....... I'll go follow.
Just starting out with Wix and this has been super helpful. Thank you.
not having a mobile version of the website is a very critical mistake. i did it once. it's the easiest thing to overlook, assuming people surf more on PCs and tablets. thank you for expounding on this point.
I thought it was a great video and great list. I'm going to be starting my website soon, using WIX, so I'm glad I found you. I'll be checking out your others. Great job.👏👍
Did you really need to throw in the whole "Number 7 is going to surprise you" this isn't a clickbait facebook article...
I thought that as well. I already clicked on the video, what is that hoping to achieve?
I was about to click away purely because of that... but I thought I'd give him a chance.

You guy are some haters! Just watch and shut up. If you don't like it make your own video tutorial.
Great, straightfoward and it is better not to skip to 17:11 as Yves Lopez mentions below. Enjoyed the speed and info.
Great info, clearly communicated. Thanks!
I honestly can't believe you just breezed thru the mobile editor with sparkling praise. here in 2021 and we are stuck with some 2010 apple phone temp for the mobile editor. most of us have 1080p phones now. why hasn't Wix updated their mobile editor ? 3-4 standard types to choose from ? the mob editor brought me nothing but grief.
The video rocks, thanks. I hope to see more!
Much appreciated! I’ve been inactive for a while and watching this before I return is very helpful!
This is a comforting refresher, thank you!
Definitely agree with the no exit pop ups, Ive come across them and its super annoying being forced into subscribing to a mailing list to then go to my emails and unsub!!.. Thank you soo much for these tips!!!!!!
Loads of great advice, I thank you so much. This video is a distillation of real professional experience, that I don't have time to gain myself.
GREAT TIPS. THANK YOU CEDRIC
Great tips, I've done about half of them already. The others are so basic they're easy to be forgotten.
As a new user of wix I m very happy to come across those mistakes. I just put my page out.
So I have a few things to correct now! Thank you!!!!
Yeah, your first correction should be to get rid of wix, and get a real website.

🤓 Thank you! I'm starting a business/website and this is extremely helpful! I was thinking of adding music, damn lol.
Hi! We're glad you found this helpful. Everyone's website is different, but in our experience, we've found that unless your website is about selling music, it's better to go without!
I believe the SEO tip is essential. Thank you for this video.
Subscribed! Great advice!

Nice information...
Really fast and clear advice, thank you.
Very good actionable information. Thank you for the share.
very useful and nice
Stating that Wix mobile editor is
really great is laughable.
I love Wix - but mobile editor blows.
yea they really gotta overhaul it big time. creating things that aren't templates look so hilariously bad and out of place when you're previewing in mobile, and there's so little you can do about it. so i guess being creative and thinking outside the box comes at a cost lol
at least they let you turn it off so that mobile users will be running the desktop version of the site. still not maybe the best decision but it's a million times better than wix "trying" to make your site look even half decent on mobile
Wix's forthcoming Editor X system is miles better.
@@calvertphoto
Holy shit - you are a serious photographer! Not being snarky - after checking out your credentials I feel like I should address you with the term Sir.
Thanks for the heads-up about the new Wix editor on the horizon. I am running four Wix sites and the mobile editor is so bad I just redirect people to use a laptop or larger monitor. Just curious how did you find out about upgrade?
@@ColossalCereal
I have used the following work around. On the homepage of my regular site in the smallest possible type put a redirect at the bottom of the page. I actually try and hide it. Then on the mobile editor I delete just about everything else except one or two large images and enlarge the redirect so you can't miss it. The text in the redirect it's just a simple request that people use a laptop or larger monitor. hope that help! Hey I was snooping on your site and suspect you might be a street racer...
Keith D Maust thanks buddy i'll give her a shot later today!
haha as cool as that'd be i'm just an audio nerd. trying to capitalize on the use of sound effects, music and such. out of curiosity what industry are you into Keith? if you don't mind me asking
great video, thank you
Yeah Number 7 was a real Shocker. Hardly necessary
With font, it’s easier to read normal lowercase with title uppercase only. The shape of the word helps comprehension.
Very informative
very helpful thank you. ;-)
really great analysis
Great video man
Excellent video as I design my site. Shame the summary gave no. 12 as Too Many Social Networks when the advice had been NOT using them on your page.
Not doing SEO point..24 is most critical..followed by efftive internal pages
Thank you so much for this! It was concise and too the point!!
Thank you!
Thank you for making this video.
VERY helpful -
especially #14 you need a blog!
And with internal links back to your site.
So... You have to have a small Header on your computer??? That looks silly... and what you''re saying is that Whatever size is on your computer is also on your phone? It doesn't convert the size down to the phone???
If this is the case... then the computer version is going to look distorted... Heading (Title) too Small...
I am very confused.
great advise for a beginner thank you
These are some spicy tips. Very useful no BS video. Much appreciated!
Great! I have on one to talk to about achieving what I'm trying to do. Thanks
thank you for this video - i hear quality tips and real good advice thank you for your time and effort in making this video
thanks for a great video
How do you get around Wix's limited shipping settings? This is a big issue for me
This is pure gold! Quick question: In terms of premium plans to accept payments from clients (not eCommerce, but for an agency) do I need to have one of the business plans?
Thank You
How to make products comparison website with parallel companies & separate products search bar ?? Plz make video
Excellent Information!
great tutorial , I am a begginer planning to build my website
Very insightful! Thanks for the video!
Hi, how did you link the box - "Get Quotes Now"? I have form to request custom quote from clients. It is just a form. How do I link to the box? I don't see it in the hyperlink option
Thanks, I found this very useful as I am currently building my first website :)
Excellent tutorial. THANKS.
Thanks for the tips...very helpful
Thank u this vedio i show
How do you set it up for exit intent? I don't see the trigger setting to allow for this as opposed to popping up within a certain number of seconds. I don't want it popping up while they are reading the content of the page...only when they move the cursor to navigate off the page. If you can explain I would be really grateful. Thanks
thanks. It helped to know im mostly on track.
Hello you! Create one web Wix very good thanks you
what about the video sound?
I added a video to a strip and it muted
Great overview! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Very good info.
Thanks
The automatic mobile version of wix only works if your site has more of a standard wix preset, and minimalistic appearance, otherwise it becomes a pain in the ass to make your website a mobile version if it's a complex structure.
What microphone are you using for this video? Right now I use a headset, but I want to upgrade to a pro mic for screencasts. Thanks
The title of this video is also clickbait. This isn't about WIX at all. It's web design 101.
straight foward video and no bullshit. great content!
legit... made my way through the whole thing. Thanks!
Great summary, thanks for sharing.
NICE!
OK sir it is very usefull
Great advices! Many thanks
Thank you for the information very helpful. still learning.
Dude, NEVER throw in a opening comment like "Number 7 is going to surprise you" and when it's typical. It absolutely makes you a Click-bate monger and people see you as insincere marketer. Don't do it, ever.
Thanks! This was helpful.
Amazing tips thank you
How do you increase the size of the font on wix? My phone number is too small but don't see a way to increase it
This is a good informative video, thanks
How can I add page visitors number to Wix website visitors number
Helped alot Thank you!
Is there an autoscale function built into Wix that automatically scales the site to the size of monitor or device that a person is using?
Did you find the answer for this?
@@vd3205 ...no. I eventually had to pay someone to redo my site for me since wix had no guidance on this. You would think something as basic as this would be an option but it's not.
