Wix offers its service at a certain price and also has a free option. You can take a test drive and get acquainted with design tools. The website builder on WordPress.org is free, but you need a hosting company to give your website a place to “live”. Depending on how long you commit to the host, you can sometimes find one starting at INR 160 per month. In the Forbes Advisor analysis of the best WordPress hosting services, we found that DreamHost and HostGator are two of the best options.
Both Wix and WordPress have drag-and-drop functionality, so you don’t need any special coding to get the look and feel of your website. However, if you want more customization, WordPress.org is your best option as HTML allows you to code freely. While Wix allows you to paste HTML, it’s pretty clunky.
With Wix you get between 3 GB and 50 GB of storage space. The storage space available at WordPress.org depends on your underlying hosting company, but 50GB is typical. Both companies also have free themes or templates and plugins. Wix refers to plugins as apps. A paid plan with Wix gives you a free Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate and custom domain, while WordPress.org depends on your host, but hosts usually provide this for free.
