If you're an entrepreneur or small business owner without an office, sometimes you need to find a place outside of your kitchen or home office to work. Sometimes you crave a little real human interaction - beyond Facebook, Twitter and the like. We all probably have our favorite little spots - the Panera Breads, the Prets that offer free WiFi with purchase, but sometimes you need something that's quieter, and a little more business oriented.
Well if you're in NYC, you're in luck because Wix (creator of gorgeous and free DIY flash website templates) has opened the Wix Lounge down at 10 West 18th street.
Located steps from Union Square, the Wix Lounge is a completely free co-working and event space for creative professionals. Grab your laptop, pop into the Lounge and enjoy a productive workday five days a week. Workers enjoy free wireless internet, printing, and tea and coffee. Creatives can also organize free events at the Lounge that have ranged from classes to fashion shows to art exhibitions. They're even hosting the Tin Shingle Holiday Mix N' Mingle!
Active since 2010, the Wix Lounge is the New York branch of Wix.com, a free website platform providing user friendly tools for building beautiful, easy-to-make desktop, mobile, and Facebook websites. Wix.com offers cutting-edge web technology that enables online users to customize websites regardless of technical skill or previous knowledge. The product itself is an online tool that allows users to make sites without having to code. Users can drag & drop design elements to create a website from scratch. Wix also supplies an extensive gallery of free templates, all of which are fully customizable through the same easy process. Wix is a popular tool for small business owners, photographers and artists, entrepreneurs and other professionals who make or need high-quality websites. Wix gives users the freedom and the ability to customize and update their sites whenever they like, rather than hiring an expensive pro designer or learning how to do manual coding. Built on a freemium business model, Wix earns its profit through premium upgrades that allow users to connect their sites to their own domains, eCommerce capabilities, and more advanced features.
The Wix Lounge provides free support to Wix.com users, giving them help and advice for making the ideal website. Visit www.wix.com to check out excellent Wix sites and try the super simple Wix website editor.
