Move a Flash Site (4 posts)

  • I have a client that I am also partners  with and we did a site at WIX but because it is shared hosting it is slower than molasses. I am not a programer or a code expert my friend was but then he got too busy to help me last year. So taking the initiative with my wife’s help we build  the site. Now I want to move it and still be able to make changes to it using an easy system. I have seen weebley but they can”t move it. I still need the simple interface… any suggestions would be most helpful.


  • @prestonodenbrett As I understand it, WIX is a hosted solution which means that your site is integrated with their technology. You cannot use the site without the technology and you cannot move the technology so they ‘have you’. With that said, there are a lot of reason to view this as your first learning experience and to leave it behind you . Go to a new host and build your site in WordPress. Flash has no SEO and diminishing credibility.

  • @abigailgorton Yes, the way we put this site  together looks good, but the book format only will show up as one page, even though it is filled with 30-40 pages… wish my tech guy was not so busy with other projects in his regular job… Oh man I am not looking forward to this job at all… I think this was one of those all nighter ones because the contract had to be completed. Thanks for the news even though it was not what i really wanted to hear :(

  • Preston, Abigail is giving you some great advice, unfortunately. Now, you can share all this valuable information with others starting out. Learn and grow…painful though it is. Aren’t you glad you got that over with, now you can move on??!!! @abigailgorton @prestonodenbrett
