A polished site you never get boxed into.
- Pick a template and you're locked in - no switching later
- A free plan that shows Wix ads and a wix.com address
- Core features gated behind paid apps and upsells
- Design quality swings with the template you chose
- Accessibility is left for you to retrofit
- Swap section designs anytime, never boxed into one look
- Build free with no ads, on your own custom domain
- One flat price per site, no app store to shop through
- Every section professionally designed and consistent
- WCAG-AA accessibility built into every section
The real difference
Wix locks the template. Promino keeps you flexible.
Wix gets you started quickly, but the moment you publish you are married to your template. Want a different layout later? You rebuild from scratch. And the low headline price rarely lasts - a lot of what makes a site work sits behind paid apps and upgrades.
Promino is built around a curated library of sections you can rearrange and restyle whenever you like. One flat price covers it, nothing is gated behind an app store, and every section is professionally designed and accessible out of the box. See sites built this way.

An honest take
Who should choose Wix, and who should choose Promino
Choose Wix if you want the largest app marketplace, plan to lean on lots of third-party add-ons, and do not mind committing to a single template.
Choose Promino if you want consistently professional design, the freedom to restyle sections whenever you like, and one predictable flat price with hosting and a domain included. See everything Promino includes or how it works.
FAQ
Promino vs Wix, answered
- Yes. If you like how fast Wix gets you started but want higher, more consistent design quality and the freedom to change your layout later, Promino is a strong alternative. You assemble professionally designed sections at one flat price.
- Not after you publish. Wix locks you into the template you chose, so changing your layout later means rebuilding. Promino lets you swap and restyle sections anytime without starting over.
- Wix starts cheap or free, but the free plan carries ads and many features sit behind paid apps and upgrades. Promino is one flat price per site from €29/mo with no upsells, and you can build for free and only pay when you publish.
- No. Promino never places ads on your site, even while you are building for free. Wix's free plan shows Wix branding and a wix.com address until you upgrade.
- Both can rank, but Promino keeps things fast and clean with edge-cached delivery, automatic SEO and social metadata, OG images, a sitemap and robots file, plus WCAG-AA accessibility on every section.
- Yes, on every plan, with automatic SSL. There is no lock-in - your content and domain are yours.
