Lokal360 vs Wix.
A static site versus a SaaS builder.
The verdict in 1 sentence
Wix is enough for a hobby business, a micro-firm on a 0 PLN budget, a freelancer with 1 page. A Lokal360 static site wins for any business that wants: better SEO, a lower 5-year TCO, no vendor lock-in, ownership of the code.
- Wix: 80-280 PLN/month, a perpetual subscription, PageSpeed 30-60, export impossible, vendor lock-in
- Lokal360 static: 1 299-2 499 PLN one-time, PageSpeed 99/100, the code is yours, hosting from 250 PLN/year with a domain
- 5-year cost (small biz): Wix 4 800-16 800 PLN / Lokal360 1 299-2 799 PLN, a difference of 4 000-15 000 PLN
- The key: with Wix the owner pays for hosting forever and CANNOT export their site, it is a lifelong subscription

A real bill for a typical small business
Option A: Wix Business plan (typical for businesses)
- DIY setup: 0 PLN (your time, typically 20-40 hours)
- Wix Business plan: 80 PLN / month × 60 = 4 800 PLN / 5 years
- Wix Custom domain: 90 PLN × 5 = 450 PLN
- Wix Stores Pro (if a shop): +120 PLN / month × 60 = +7 200 PLN
- Apps from the Wix App Market (usually 5-15 USD/month each): typically 1 500-5 000 PLN / 5 years
- Total without a shop: 5 250 PLN / 5 years
- Total with Wix Stores: 12 450 PLN / 5 years
Option B: a Lokal360 static company site
- Setup: 2 499 PLN (one-time)
- Hosting (dhosting): ~190 PLN / year × 5 = 950 PLN
- .pl domain: 60 PLN × 5 = 300 PLN
- Optional care: 0-8 940 PLN / 5 years
- Total without care: 3 749 PLN / 5 years
- Total with Standard care: 12 689 PLN / 5 years
Difference: 3 000-10 000 PLN / 5 years in favor of static
Plus a 30-50 % higher PageSpeed = better SEO = more free traffic. Plus ownership of the code (you can change the contractor / hosting at any time).
The worst fact about Wix: you cannot export it
This is a real dealbreaker. After 5 years on Wix you want to switch, to what? The site you built over hundreds of hours is trapped. Wix does not let you export the site as HTML/CSS. You can only:
- Export the content as PDF / Word (you lose all the links, the design, the structure)
- Cancel the subscription, the site disappears from the internet
- Start from scratch with a new contractor
It is a lifelong subscription, not ownership. A static HTML site is your folder of files, you can copy it to any host in 2 minutes.
When Wix is the better choice
- A hobby business with no budget for a 999+ PLN setup
- A freelancer with 1 portfolio page, editing it daily
- No budget for maintenance. Wix is zero-touch
- A shop with 5-20 products. Wix Stores is enough, a shorter time-to-launch
When a static site wins
- Any service business (restaurant, hotel, salon, clinic)
- A 3+ year plan in a given industry
- Local SEO as an acquisition channel (Wix is weak, static PageSpeed 99 = a ranking factor)
- Custom design / branding. Wix templates are for everyone
- Technological independence, you do not want to depend on a single provider
FAQ
I have a site on Wix, how do I migrate?
Migration from Wix → HTML is a manual rewrite (Wix does not export). Full process: WordPress / Wix migration → HTML. Price 899 PLN, 5-7 days. Content, structure, SEO preserved through 301 redirects.
Does Wix Stores replace Shopify?
For 5-20 products, it is enough. Above 50 products / 50 orders per month. Shopify is better (better checkout, more integrations, a lower total cost with transactions). Wix Stores = good enough for a micro-firm.
Does Wix Velo (code) save the situation?
Partly. Wix Velo gives you a JavaScript backend, but the frontend (HTML/CSS) is still trapped in the Wix format. Export is still impossible. Velo is a patch, not a solution.
What if I have already paid for Wix for a year?
Finish the year, and in the meantime start building the static site. The migration is ready before Wix expires, the switch happens in a single day. Wix usually does not refund the money pro rata.
Time to escape Wix?
Migration in 5-7 days, content preserved, SEO with no loss of rankings.
