      Can you do a video on ugly websites so we know what you mean

  • @oziozar
    @oziozar Před 3 lety +1

    Thanks for the tips! One thing, the example of your viewers using CZcams was not clever at all. A many people use youtube as a social media and not for a service you individually give. I barely check websites on my phone if I'm not home, and if I'm using my phone, I'm mostly using apps and not their website. Another point is that, I use youtube many times as podcast because I don't need the screen, or as of right now I'm drifting away doing other things on my laptop and just listening to you and when I hear something that I find interesting I'm coming back to this tab to see if you are demonstrating something. Just had to mention them, thanks for the informative video tho. :)

    Someone mentioned "slowing down a bit". I agree. For beginners like me who don't immediately understand the terminology used by those of you who are proficient in this field, its difficult to grab the concept unless we know the specificity of a word. For example, I'm not a veterinarian so I wouldn't understand all the medical terms they use. The same holds true here. So, I'm constantly stopping and starting (and sometimes backing up) the video to recognize what you mean. Regardless, I truly appreciate your thoroughness and knowledge of WIX. "Build your own website", they said. "It'll be fun!" lol I am enjoying it but it'll probably be more 'fun' when I have it published. lol

    Your video was very instructive, thanks for sharing all this knowledge. I just started on Wix this weekend and I am quite happy with the results. I have one issue thought that I cannot figure out :( I used a blanc template and I am stocked with navigation arrows on my home page (left and right) of the screen that I cannot remove. I do not want these arrows as I have a very simple top menu. Do you think it is something that I cannot change because I started from a template ? Thanks in advance

  • @iuriisemeniuk6067

    Great useful video, I like your tips, thanks.
    Would you be able to help me to figure out how to integrate my logo to the menu bar instead of "Home"?
    I saw this on some websites and I really like it, having logo in the centre of the menu bar.
    I was playing around with wix, but couldn't find this feature. Thanks

  • @_-.Victoria.-_
    @_-.Victoria.-_ Před 2 lety +2

    Thanks. Re. no 13, if you always work within margins then viewers on larger screens will see your content as a centralised column with a vast amount of empty space either side, which looks terrible if you ask me. It's not so bad on a laptop but try viewing your site on a 24" monitor ! STRIPS AND COLUMNS are the answer apparently; they spread content beyond the margins in a way that's responsive, ie won't get "cut off" ,regardless of the device they are on. You can't use them on shop pages but you can use them on "normal" pages

    • @Gabistruwwelliese
      @Gabistruwwelliese Před 2 lety +1

      YES, I had the same problem and I did a whole website within the margins and it looked awful until I learned what you are mentioning about.

    is there a way to inspect the padding between elements? I'm not talking about alignment in layouts. I just want to see the pixels between different items on the page.

    Could you please show me how to assign a sub-menu page to a specific product? I need my client to so right to a product page when S/He clicks on my sub-menu.
    Here is what I need:
    My Menu: Menu Item (Standard Page)-----> Sub-Menu (an actual product page)
    Example: Business cards ------------------------> Cotton Business Card (This is an actual product where my client can choose all the variants I entered in.)

    You spoke about anchors and making sure they are located properly.

Although my buttons go to the correct strip (by using the anchors), the menu buttons highlight incorrectly the current location. Is there anyway to fix this?

  • @readyfreddie3463
    @readyfreddie3463 Před 2 lety

    I'm interested in adding nofollow to external affiliate links on my WIX pages (not my WIX blog posts, which have a nofollow command that I will conveniently use).
    Unfortunately, WIX PAGES (not blog posts, rather, regular pages) do not have a nofollow command to apply to an external link on a page.
    BUT, I am told by WIX support that if I can provide the JavaScript code to nofollow, they can tell me how to add it to the code to a page's links to make it happen.
    Does anyone know what the JavaScript code is that causes a nofollow? I can't find it anywhere.
    And how frustrating is it that WIX hasn't added that feature when people have been requesting it for years?
    Also, does the slower site speed on a WIX site pretty much make it a bad idea for an affiliate site?
    Is WIX just a bad idea overall if someone wants to have a fully developed/fully optimized affiliate site?

    @UnchainedEruption Před 2 lety +1

    How about the mistake of ridiculously fucking massive pictures and other empty whitespace that take up the entire screen (or more than the entire screen), add nothing of significance, yet force the user to scroll down when the same information could easily have fit on one page, no scrolling required? Why is it that nearly every website today looks fucking atrocious on my PC, on my tablet, and on my phone? In an age where every device has had 16 : 9 or wider displays for over a decade, how is it that web designers think our displays are something like 1 : 10 billion? Use the goddamned horizontal space, and stop making your fonts/pictures/buttons needlessly large. Scrolling is a sin to be avoided whenever possible and only needed as a last resort if fitting everything in one screen becomes too crowded.

    • @StonedViper101
      @StonedViper101 Před rokem

      My housemate has been noticing the same thing. Nowadays, businesses are becoming slack with marketing. We have witnessed so many grammatical errors in websites (some really up there companies, ie, Creality 3D Printer websites) as if the websites was designed by someone with no knowledge at all about building websites.
      So many companies are resorting to using slang and abbreviated words, instead of actually explaining things.
      Many companies are looking real "dumbed down" the last few years.... anyone else notice this?
      Nowadays it's all about being "with the times" doing thinks the way the new generation is, but that's the problem right there, it has thrown professionalism out the window....
