Independent Research Task : Familiarisation With Wix

The purpose of this task is to ensure that you know how to use Wix in readiness for producing the website for your film magazine.

Wix is a cloud-based website builder. Its user-friendly drag-and-drop tools and over will help you build your website without the need for any specialist knowledge of web design.

However, you need to learn how to use it.

There are a selection of links below that you can access in order to develop your knowledge and understanding of Wix.

My advice would be to sign up and create a website for yourself or for something that you are interested in. Use this to gain knowledge and understanding of how Wix works.

Do not start to try to produce your film magazine website as you will do this later.
