Export Make Money on Wix to HTML

Wix is just a platform. Making money happens when you put something valuable on it. Here are the main ways people monetize Wix sites, ranked roughly by how achievable they are.

Selling services (easiest for most people)

Consulting. Coaching. Design. Writing. Photography. Whatever you're good at. Wix Bookings lets clients schedule and pay online. You show up, do the work, get paid. No inventory, no shipping, no product development.

The math works quickly. Charge $100/hour for consulting? Five hours pays for your entire year of Wix. That's why service businesses love website builders.

Selling physical products

Wix Stores handles ecommerce. List products, connect payment processing, ship orders. Works for everything from handmade crafts to dropshipped goods to established retail businesses.

Profit margins vary wildly. Handmade items can hit 60%+ margins. Dropshipping might be 10-20%. Make sure your math works before committing to inventory.

Selling digital products

Ebooks. Templates. Courses. Stock photos. Music. Software. No inventory, instant delivery, infinite scale. Create once, sell forever.

Digital products are increasingly competitive but still viable. The key is specificity, "Lightroom presets for wedding photographers" beats "photography presets."

Memberships and subscriptions

Wix lets you create paid member areas. Charge monthly for exclusive content, community access, or ongoing resources. Subscription revenue is beautiful, predictable, recurring, compounds over time.

Examples: paid newsletters, premium tutorials, member-only downloads, private communities.

Affiliate marketing

Promote other people's products. Earn commission on sales. Works well if you have content that attracts buyers, review sites, comparison guides, tutorials featuring paid tools.

Amazon Associates pays 1-10% depending on category. Software affiliates often pay 20-30%. Some pay recurring commissions on subscriptions you refer.

Display advertising

Add Google AdSense or other ad networks. Earn money when visitors see or click ads. Sounds passive but requires massive traffic.

Realistic numbers: $2-10 RPM (revenue per 1,000 views) for most niches. Need 50,000 monthly pageviews to make $100-500/month. Not worth it for small sites.

Lead generation

Build sites that capture leads for businesses. Sell the leads or take a cut of closed deals. Common in real estate, legal, home services.

More complex to set up but can be very profitable. One quality lead might be worth $50-500 to the right business.

Combining strategies

Most succesful Wix sites use multiple monetization methods. A photographer might sell services (shoots), products (prints), and digital products (presets). A consultant might combine hourly work with courses and affiliate recommendations.

Start with one method. Get it working. Add another. Don't try everything at once.
