Wix

Wix is a popular DIY website builder with drag-and-drop templates and a monthly subscription. You build, design and maintain the site yourself.

Wix is a great tool if you have the time and skills to build your own site. But most Kiwi business owners don't want to become part-time web designers. Here's an honest comparison so you can choose what fits.

If you want a website that just works — built, hosted, optimised and maintained by a real team — Found wins. Wix only wins if you genuinely enjoy building and running it yourself.

Found vs Wix FAQ

On paper Wix's base plan can look cheaper, but you're doing all the design, SEO, updates and maintenance yourself. Found bundles that work into one monthly fee, so your time stays free for your business.
