In a nutshell the difference between the Wix and WordPress
Before we can explain the main difference, we need to clarify one thing: here we compare Wix with its own version of WordPress, which is available through WordPress.org. .Org is different from WordPress.com. If you feel that you need more information about this, here is a good explanation of what both WordPress bring to the table.
Of course, the biggest difference between Wix and WordPress is that WordPress is a standalone software that needs to be installed (or installed by a third-party developer) on a web server. Only then can you use it as software for your site.
Wix, on the other hand, is the tool / service you are subscribing to. Once you sign up, Wix lets you create and manage your website on Wix.com. He takes care of the hosting and does all the technical hard work.
