Wix looked good in the demo.
Reality is different.

Wix built its brand on simplicity. But once you're inside, the frustrations add up fast — and switching feels expensive.

Wix ads on your free site

Wix plasters its own branding across your website on the free plan. You're essentially running unpaid ads for Wix — and it looks unprofessional to every visitor.

Painfully slow load times

Wix sites are notorious for poor Core Web Vitals. Heavy JavaScript, bloated rendering pipelines, and slow servers make visitors bounce before your page even loads.

Locked into the Wix ecosystem

You can't export your Wix site. Ever. All the time you invest is held hostage. If Wix raises prices or discontinues a feature, you have no escape route.

Premium plans are expensive

Wix Core starts at £144/year. Want analytics, email marketing, or priority support? You're looking at £216–588/year. The price creep is relentless.

Not AI-native

Wix bolted on an AI assistant as an afterthought. It's a thin layer over the same drag-and-drop editor you already hate. ChilledSites was built AI-first from day one.

AI-built. Faster. Cheaper. Cleaner.

ChilledSites was designed from scratch for a world where AI does the heavy lifting — so you don't have to.

AI builds your full site in 60 seconds

Describe your business in plain English. ChilledSites AI generates a complete, professional, multi-page website — design, copy, navigation, and layout — in under a minute. No templates, no drag-and-drop.

Genuinely fast load times

ChilledSites outputs clean, lightweight HTML — no bloated JavaScript framework, no visual editor overhead. Your site loads fast, scores well on Core Web Vitals, and keeps visitors engaged.

Edit anything by typing

Want to change your hero headline, add a new section, or restyle the whole colour scheme? Just type what you want. The AI makes it happen instantly — no clicking around menus.

80% cheaper than Wix

ChilledSites Pro is £29/year. Wix Core is £144/year — and that's before you add the features you actually need. Everything is bundled at ChilledSites with no upsells or surprise renewals.

Custom domain + hosting included

Connect your own domain and your site is live. Hosting, SSL, and global CDN delivery are all included in the annual price. No separate hosting bills, no Wix subdomain embarrassment.

Forms and analytics built in

Contact forms with email notifications and a full visitor analytics dashboard are included as standard — not locked behind a £216/year plan upgrade like Wix.

A fair comparison.

Side by side, feature by feature. See exactly what you're getting — and what you're leaving behind.

Feature Wix Core (£144/yr) ChilledSites Pro (£29/yr)
AI website generation Basic ADI only Full AI generation in 60s
AI editing (type to change) No Yes — type any change
Wix branding / ads removed Yes (paid plans only) Never branded
Custom domain Yes Yes
Analytics dashboard Business plan (£216/yr) Included
Contact forms Yes (basic) Yes + email notifications
Site export / data portability No — locked in forever Clean HTML — yours to keep
Page speed / Core Web Vitals Often poor Lightweight, fast
Annual price £144/year £29/year

Switching takes minutes, not months.

You don't need to migrate anything. Just start fresh — the AI does it faster than you could copy your old site anyway.

1

Describe your business

Type a short description of what you do, who you serve, and what you want your site to achieve. One or two sentences is enough — the AI fills in the rest.

2

Review your AI-generated site

In 60 seconds, ChilledSites builds you a complete multi-page site with professional copy, layout, and design. Review it, request changes by typing, or publish as-is.

3

Connect your custom domain

Point your domain to ChilledSites in a few clicks. We handle SSL and CDN automatically. Your site is live at your own URL — no Wix subdomain, no branding, no fuss.

4

Cancel Wix — save £115+ per year

Once you're live on ChilledSites, cancel your Wix subscription. You'll save at least £115/year compared to Wix Core, and you're no longer locked into their ecosystem.

Wix charges £144/year.

Everything you need to know

What is the best alternative to Wix in 2026?
ChilledSites is the best Wix alternative for small businesses and freelancers in 2026. Unlike Wix's slow drag-and-drop builder, ChilledSites uses AI to build a complete professional website in 60 seconds — no ads, no lock-in, custom domain and hosting included from just £29/year.
Why is Wix so expensive?
Wix's pricing starts at £144/year for their Core plan, which doesn't even include analytics. To get analytics, email marketing, and priority support you'll need the Business plan at £216/year or higher. ChilledSites includes everything in one flat price of £29/year — AI generation, hosting, analytics, forms, custom domain, and AI editing with no upsells.
Does Wix show ads on your website?
Yes. Wix shows its own branding and ads on all free plan websites. You have to upgrade to a paid plan to remove them. ChilledSites never shows third-party ads or platform branding on your site — your site looks clean and professional from day one, at every price point.
Is ChilledSites significantly cheaper than Wix?
Yes — significantly. Wix Core is £144/year. ChilledSites Pro is £29/year. That's a saving of £115/year, or over 80% less. And ChilledSites includes AI generation, AI editing, full analytics, and forms as standard — features that would push your Wix bill to £216/year or more.
Can I move my Wix website to ChilledSites?
The fastest way is to generate a new site from scratch with ChilledSites AI. Describe your business in a sentence, and the AI builds a complete website in 60 seconds that will typically look and perform better than your Wix site. Wix doesn't allow you to export your site, so generating fresh is almost always quicker than trying to recreate it manually.
