FAQ
​
Do you only build on Wix
No. I design on Wix myself for speed and simplicity, and I also deliver WordPress sites. For commerce, courses, memberships or bookings I partner with my developer team on Shopify, Webflow, or WordPress + WooCommerce, with Stripe or PayPal integration.
​
What do you need from me
Your book cover art, author photo, page copy or bullet notes, any brand colors or fonts, newsletter platform access for the signup, and your preferred domain.
​
Who owns the site
You do. The site is built in your account, and you keep full access.
​
Can you migrate an existing site
Yes. I can redesign on Wix or rebuild on WordPress and keep your domain and key links intact where possible.
