Blacksmith vs Wix
Wix hands you the editor. We hand you the finished site.
Wix is a capable DIY builder if you have the time and the eye. Blacksmith is for business owners who do not: we read your existing site and rebuild it into a modern homepage you simply review and approve.
Sound familiar?
DIY means your nights and weekends
Template picking, dragging blocks, resizing photos — a DIY builder makes you the web designer. Most owners never finish the site they started.
Templates start generic
A template knows nothing about your business. You do all the work of making it yours — copy, structure, photos, mobile checks.
You are also the maintenance crew
Every update, fix, and tweak is on you. The editor is always waiting.
Blacksmith vs Wix
Wix is do-it-yourself; Blacksmith is done-for-you. Both can produce a good small-business website — the difference is whose time it takes.
