If you're building an e-commerce website, a website with rich images and / or videos, or a website that simply needs to impress, you're probably already familiar with Flash technology from Adobe - its the leading rich media Web development technology which powers millions of sites from Youtube to Yahoo. You need Flash to handle things like video, rich graphics, and in-page animations. Unfortunately, Flash is an expensive technology to work with - purchasing Flash development software is expensive, and hiring Flash engineers and designers is even more expensive.

• Build a Flash website on Wix

Luckily, a new company called Wix has come out to address this problem. They have created a do-it-yourself platform based on Flash which allows you to customize your own Flash website based on a rich library of templates.

Wix has hundreds of templates designed for style / fashion, music / entertainment, corporate / branding, business / finance, ecommerce, and photography websites. 

Unlimited customizability

The amazing thing about Wix is the limitless customization and powerful plug-ins you get to create any type of website you want. You can add your own text, images, videos, products, slideshows, music, and structure your site any way you want. Wix even provides plug-ins for e-commerce, Paypal / payments, comments, social networking, maps, and media players.

Best of all - your website with Wix is 100% free. Not a bad deal for a Flash website these days.
