Where they differ
- Cheapest way in: Framer at $10/mo, against Wix at $14/mo. That is the entry price in this market on the dates shown, not a judgement about which suits you.
- Free plans: both publish one — a plan priced at zero, not a trial. What each caps differs.
- How far each ladder goes: Framer tops out at $200/mo, Wix at $79/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- Recently moved: Wix (2026-09-03). A change only counts once a second clean read agrees.
- Framer: It bills by country — entry £8/mo to a UK reader and €10/mo in the eurozone, from our same-day reads.

How to choose in this category
- First-term discounts are common here — the renewal figure is the one you will live with.
- Free plans usually carry the vendor’s branding and domain.
- A site is hard to move; weigh the exit cost before the entry price.
