Free Website Advertising on Facebook
Website Builder Wix
A Free Website Template
NEW YORK, NY, July 01, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- High-tech start-up Wix.com is changing the face of web design. Formed in 2006, the company released the open beta version of its
free website builder in 2008 and grown dramatically since then. Over 4 million Flash websites have been created with Wix's software, and the company is constantly cooking up new ways to enhance and promote its offering. This week marked the launch of a new advertising opportunity for Wix users, in which they can create and post free ads for their sites on Facebook with a $50 voucher presented by Wix.
To gain instant access to the free website builder and immediately start to
make your own website, simply sign up at Wix.com. Select a
free website template or start building a blank website from scratch. An enormous library of free design elements are found inside Wix, but users can also upload their own content and media files. The customization process is astonishingly simple even for non-techies. All it takes to transform a blank site or a web template into a fully functional, personalized web creation is an Internet connection, and a few clicks of your mouse.
Wix users wishing to take their online success one step further can upgrade to one of Wix's premium packages, to gain full control over their site's domain free of the Wix URL. Upgrading also grants access to site statistics via Google Analytics, so users can track their site's online success. There are many different premium packages to choose from, each offering a unique set of features. For instance, the eCommerce package enables users to turn their sites into online shops, with a shopping cart widget in the
website builder.
The company has released a campaign this week, in which all users are granted free $50 vouchers toward Facebook advertising when upgrading to premium packages eCommerce, Unlimited or Combo, on a yearly-based subscription. Current owners of these Wix accounts are also finding $50 Facebook vouchers right inside their Wix account homepages.
Facebook advertising is a highly lucrative approach to gaining traffic to one's website. The social network hosts over 400,000,000 active members who have needs and interests that are demonstrated through user profiles and online activity. This enables Facebook ads to target users in a highly-efficient manner.
Founder & CEO of Wix, Avishai Abrahami, comments: "The Facebook promotion allows Wix users to tap into their online audiences...We're giving site owners a strong push toward customers who are already looking for them."
The Facebook promotion coincides with a similar ongoing deal Wix has with Google, offering users free $75 coupons toward Google AdWords. The offer applies to the same chunk of Wix' premium userbase, as well as all free website owners who upgrade. Essentially this translates into free advertising worth $125 offered to qualified users.
Wix was created in 2006 and is backed by Mangrove Capital Partners, Bessemer Venture Partners and Benchmark Capital. The company is headquartered in NY and has offices in Tel-Aviv.
