1. Choose a Clean and Cohesive Colour Scheme


A professional website maintains a consistent colour palette that aligns with branding. Tip: Stick to three primary colours - one dominant, one accent, and one neutral.

2. Use High-Quality, Consistent Fonts


Avoid using multiple fonts that clash. Choose two complementary fonts - one for headings and one for body text. Wix provides numerous font pairings that enhance readability.


3. Keep Your Layout Simple and Intuitive


Too many elements can make a site look cluttered. Follow a Z-pattern layout, guiding users naturally across the page.

4. Optimise Images for Speed and Aesthetics


Large images slow down load time, affecting user experience. Compress images and use Wix’s built-in image optimisation tools to ensure clarity without sacrificing speed.


5. Ensure Mobile-Friendliness


With over 50% of web traffic coming from mobile devices, ensure your site adapts seamlessly. Use Wix’s mobile editorto preview and tweak the mobile experience.

6. Utilise White Space Effectively


White space (or negative space) improves readability and makes your content stand out. Avoid cramming too much information on one page.


7. Enhance Call-to-Actions (CTAs)


A good CTA should be clear and action-driven (e.g., "Get Your Free Consultation"). Use bold colours that contrast with your background to grab attention.


8. Improve Navigation and Menus


Ensure your navigation is straightforward. Limit menu items to 5–7 and use dropdowns wisely.

9. Maintain Consistency Across Pages


Professional sites follow a cohesive structure in spacing, headings, and design elements across all pages. Use Wix’s Theme Manager to apply styles site-wide.


10. Leverage Wix Features for a Professional Look


Take advantage of Wix’s Professional Templates, Wix ADI, and Advanced Design Features to refine your site’s appearance without extra effort.


Conclusion


A polished website isn’t about complex coding - it’s about strategic design choices. By implementing these simple tweaks, your Wix site will appear more professional, ensuring visitors trust your brand.
