Export What Is Better Than Wix to HTML

"Better" depends on what's frustrating you about Wix.

If it's the price, you have options. WordPress on budget hosting runs $5-10/month. Carrd is $19/year. Static HTML on Netlify costs nothing. Compare that to Wix's $17-159 monthly and the savings add up fast.

If it's the speed, almost anything is an improvement. Wix loads 2-4MB of JavaScript before your content appears. Page speed tests regularly show Wix sites scoring 30-45 out of 100. WordPress sites average 50-60. Static HTML hits 90+.

If it's lock-in, WordPress gives you full ownership. You control the hosting, you have the files, you can move anytime. Webflow exports code on paid plans. Static HTML is yours by definition.

If it's design quality, Squarespace wins. Their templates are consistently professional, clean typography, proper spacing, modern aesthetics. Wix templates vary wildly in quality.

Let me break down the main contenders:

Squarespace. Pros: beautiful templates, cohesive design system, all-in-one pricing. Cons: limited flexibility, no real export, same subscription model as Wix.

WordPress. Pros: complete ownership, massive plugin ecosystem, runs anywhere. Cons: security maintenance, steeper learning curve, hosting is your problem.

Webflow. Pros: designer-grade control, clean code output, real export option. Cons: complex pricing, workspace fees add up, learning curve.

Framer. Pros: modern interface, beautiful animations, intuitive. Cons: no export at all, limited feature set.

Ghost. Pros: clean blogging experience, built-in newsletters, modern. Cons: blog-focused, limited as general website builder.

Static HTML. Pros: fastest performance, most secure, free hosting, total control. Cons: no visual editor, requires some technical knowledge.

Here's the thing though, all these builders share a fundamental problem. Monthly fees that never end. Your site sits unchanged for months but the bill keeps coming.

The question isn't really "what's better than Wix?" It's "do I need to rent a website forever?"

For content that rarely changes, portfolios, restaurants, small businesses, static HTML makes more sense. Build your site however you want, export to HTML, host for free. Done. No more monthly payments for pages that just sit there.

Our tool exports any live website to static HTML. Your current Wix site, a Squarespace page, whatever. You get files you actually own. Upload to Netlify in 30 seconds, connect your domain, walk away.

Better than Wix isn't necessarily another builder. It's breaking the subscription cycle.
