A word from Wix community managers
“Quality content is key and creating the right content takes time. But not all the content you share has to be original. You can curate interesting articles or studies, quotes from industry experts, guest posts from the community—you name it. Ask your members for their opinions and you’ll get a conversation rolling in no time.”—Noemi Levy, Wix Spanish Community Manager

Show off your expertise
