Wix Helps Teach Online Users How to Make a Website with Quick Video Tutorials

New York, NY, July 15, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Those with no technical background or programming knowledge are able to create high quality, professional-looking Flash websites. The man behind the curtain is website builder Wix.com, a start-up company who designed online software that is changing the way the web works. With a series of quick, fun video clips, Wix is effectively granting users not only the tools to create their own websites, but the confidence to do so.

In a “How To” section of Wix’ website, a series of articles outline the steps involved in building a website. The articles are divided by niche, with articles relating to photography websites in one section, business websites in another, fashion and style-related sites in another, and so on.

In addition to the text-based articles, Wix is stocking up the How To section with video clips, demonstrating various aspects of website construction. Every facet of building a website is shown from How to Add Videos to Your Website, to How to Create a Website with Menus, to How to Track Site Traffic with Google Analytics. The average video length is about 2 minutes, making it a snap for busy professionals on the go to quickly figure out how to make a website exactly the way they want, without sifting through sections of text.

Founder and CEO of Wix, Avishai Abrahami explained: “The idea behind Wix is to provide every single online user with the ability to design a unique, personalized website. The videos make it easy for people to visualize exactly what to do, every step of the way.”

The videos are also available in French, Spanish, Italian and German, for Wix’ foreign community of free website creators. With the smooth rollover effects, Flash animation and bold design of Wix, the videos are a pleasure to browse through. The result is a series of highly effective glimpses at Wix in action.
Additionally, as of next week the company is providing a series of free online Webinars. Users will be able to log-in to watch live demos on building a website and a large variety of sub-topics.

Avrahami says, “Wix is effectively granting users not only the tools to create their own websites, but the confidence to do so.”

Wix is located in New York, with offices in Tel-Aviv. The company is backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, Mangrove Capital Partners and Benchmark Capital. Wix.com was created in 2006. The open beta version of the free website builder was released in June of 2008. Every Flash website built with Wix is fully search engine compatible.
