WordPress builder for newbies vs. using Wix?

[ad_1]

TLDR; is leaving the Adobe Portfolio/Wix builder world for WordPress worth it if you don’t have coding skills?

Hi y’all, I manage a small nonprofit and we currently use Adobe Portfolio for our website…which blows. We have no options for adding pop-ups, embedding things, etc. so adobe is very limited as I’m sure some of you know! I’m hoping to move us to another format and have been recommended Wix. I’ve started building on Wix and it’s easy, but I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot in terms of SEO or content ownership.

As someone who is tech-savvy but does not have WordPress experience, is it possible to make a nice website in not a huge amount of time? I’m particularly looking at the Oxygen builder add-on or Elementor builder but have heard not great customer service reviews for the latter. We really just need a basic but way more capable website in terms of embedding/blogging/editing and customization. Our donation page is run through our CRM and wouldn’t be embedded anyway, I don’t think. I’m also pretty picky about aesthetics which is why I’m nervous about WordPress. Wix makes it very easy (purposefully) to make things look nice, even if it’s pretty generic.

Thanks very much for your thoughts!

Edited to add I’m also looking at the Bricks builder too! Seems a bit more visual-oriented in terms of the design process.
