Facebook Sell With Wix – This is a great option if you want to sell online, but aren’t looking to scale your business on a large scale just yet. You can sell through Facebook with Wix by using the app Ecwid. Ecwid is the number one e-commerce app on Facebook, powering over 40,000 stores. It can also link to other social media sites like Instagram and Pinterest.
Wix is most well known as a drag-and-drop website builder. Even though its core focus is not e-commerce (unlike Shopify and BigCommerce, which are solely focused on it), Wix does offer you some pretty functional tools for the job.
