    no problem... is just wix will get allot more people using wix if you provide a good FREE URL!

    i have currently converted to X10 hosting Free... at the moment but if you are able to provide a good Wix URL i will change back! as i know wix's tools are brilliant!

    I have noted all of your requests and added it to the Wish List here.

    You can then select Wishlist tab from the menu when you type in the quick search.

    This will also let you know if other users are making similar requests.

    All this will mark your request correctly and it will be added to the list.

    You wouldn't have to move the other sites URL's. Keep them as www.wix.com/Username/website-name, but give them the option of choosing www.wix.com/Username/website-name or www.website-name.wix.com.

    Having wix.com at the beggining is bad for showing purposes. Thank you for posting.

    Yes! Yes!  Please change the wix.com to the end of the URL for free sites.  I have made several websites here for myself and clients.  The various sites I have built for non-profits and clubs have been done on other sites because of the lame wix.com URL format of being at the beginning.  I will make more wix sites if you change the URL to have the wix.com at the end.

    Yes do you guys think you will actually make this change, and when is a maybe time you might do so if you do plan on changing it to the url.wix.com format?

    As more people requesting a certain feature, it becomes more and more prioritized. Demanded features will probably be met sooner.

    use domain forwarding with the company you purchased your domain from.  I do it with godaddy.  it actually uses and shows your domain name.
