Wow, after reading this thread I don't really get what he was trying to achieve? Was it purely for to increase rep and thanks?
To be honest I had never thought about using wix for clients! Hunwarrior, nice share thanks.
damn he got banned, he rip anyone off?
He was probably banned for selling out-with the BST section through P.M. etc. etc. without the necessary permission. That would be my guess if he was indeed trying to sell it for $150
HOmER
Ardley,
Would you send me the script and thanks for the twist on the wix method. I read Hunn's first and your today and I like your better because it does not make me pay for premium and hides the ads prior to me doing all the work. Wix is a great site.
Thanks
If someone can't afford to pay wix a few dollars then they obviously are not that well off...
why OP is banned? any idea?
It's in the thread, about 10-15 posts back. Assumed he was banned for selling a script without paying the dues.
I have a few questions I hope you can verify.
I've read yours and Hunwarriors threads respetively, and this, this thread IS more thorough with it's collective and indepth information, but I have a few queries.
1. In Hunwarriors thread, he suggests you purchase premium in order to remove the Ads, which is understandable, but do you suggest it also? I mean, I can always charge them the hosting fee in order for them to cover it, and in return I lose nothing. Also, this allows them to use their own domain.
2. When you present your portfolios, or when you present them their website, how do you do it? I mean, won't they see the Ads upon presentation?
3. What payment types do you tend to accept?
4. And lastly, how exactly do you have them sign a contract if you CANNOT meet them in person?
cmon guys stop fighting, peace n love![]()
How exactly does YOUR method incorporate Wix and allowing the client to still use thier emails?
I don't think you got what I meant exactly dude, kinda missing the point, I'll explain it another way.
Say a customer has a website, awesomeplumber/com.
He also has an existing email address, info AT awesomeplumber/com.
I create a site for him. I make the sale, and I turn it premium.
I change the DNS settings for awesomeplumber/com to point to Wix's nameservers instead of his existing host.
Wix does not host emails for a domain - you can look this up on their support. This means that the email address will no longer function.
What Wix let you do is update the MX record to point to an email host.
Email hosts costs money - so you'll have to pay for another service to handle his email address - e.g. GoDaddy, GoogleApps, YahooBizmail
The only thing the contact form does is send a message to any email address you choose, in the same way you can of course write any email address you choose on the site. The problem is that the email address, after changing the DNS servers to Wix, will cease to function.
I think a solution for me is to set up my cheap hosting (which lets me have unlimited domains) to host his email address. (i.e. After changing the DNS to point to Wix, I will have to change the MX records inside Wix to point to my hosting, and I will have to set up the mailbox on my hosting... MX = mail exchange).
If you're not convinced, then remember to come back to this post to follow these instructions when your first customer calls you up complaining his email address AT hisdomain is no longer working. Or search Wix support for "connect domain email"
Hope this helps
I am just re-editing my script to make it fully seamless and undetectable, I will release a website I made used with this script that uses a free wix account hiding all the ads in the very near future.
