This post has just a simple purpose, helping non-developers understand what a service like Wix truly gives you.
I am a web developer, so I can see that a website made with Wix, 1and1 etc. is everything but professional and why.
If I am looking for a business on the web and I land on that type of website, the message I get is “we don’t really care about quality and professionality”, so I go over.
But I am aware that not everybody can see what I see and understand what exactly is wrong with those websites.

Here’s what I found on the internet and not only there, concerning the reasons which are easier to understand for non-developers as well.
Wix is one of the most famous, so I focused on it.
This is an attempt to make this topic clearer, in a easy way, for everybody and also for those who were maybe thinking to buy a service like that. Buy? Is it not for free?.. No! Ok, we can go straight to the first point I guess.

TEDx Talks: The Remote Work Revolution

Another very interesting talk contributes to share this new methodology of living work, so improve the way we live our life and evolve in something better.

“The idea here is that rather then us designing our lives around work, we’re now designing work into our lives.”
“So it’s clear we need a new approach to work, our dependence on location is not necessarily the best way to think about work.
It works for a long time after the post-industrial period but now it’s time to re-think it as we kind of transition into a more digital and service-based economy.”

Another interesting experience on remote/smart working in a fully distributed enterprise. This time not from a digital technician, but by a project manager.

In a remote company how successful you are depends on your results. Nobody cares where you are and how you work, as long as things happen when expected and as promised.
