Wix Members Area
What is Wix Members Area?
Wix Members Area is a fundamental Wix application that allows you to create a private space on your website, accessible only to registered users. In essence, it is a user management system that adds registration, login, and personal account functionalities to the site. Each registered member gets their own profile page, which they can customize, and access to exclusive sections of the site. This is the foundation for building online communities, membership sites, online learning platforms, and any business that involves personalized interaction with clients.
How to use Wix Members Area in your work?
Activating the Members Area is a one-click process in the Wix editor. After that, you can choose which pages of your site to make available only to members. You can customize the registration and login forms, as well as the fields that will be in the user's personal account. Business owners use this to provide exclusive content (articles, videos). Creators build private communities with forums and groups. Coaches and consultants provide clients with a personal account where they can see their appointments, purchase history, and manage their subscriptions.
What advantages does it provide and what problems does it solve?
The main advantage of Wix Members Area is the ability to turn anonymous visitors into registered community members. The service solves the problem of collecting data about your audience, as each member leaves their contact information, which goes into Wix CRM. It allows for the creation of a personalized experience for each user, showing them relevant information in their personal account. It is the basis for monetizing content and creating recurring revenue models. Ultimately, the Members Area helps to increase audience loyalty and engagement, transforming your website from a one-way broadcast channel into an interactive platform.
How to integrate Wix Members Area with other services?
Wix Members Area is the hub that connects the user to all other Wix services. It is a prerequisite for Wix Pricing Plans to work, as it provides the access restriction mechanism that users pay for. In their personal account, a member can see their upcoming appointments from Wix Bookings, manage their orders from Wix Stores, track their progress in Wix Online Programs, and view their purchased tickets from Wix Events. All member information is centrally stored in Wix CRM. In essence, the Members Area is the glue that creates a single, personalized user profile across the entire Wix ecosystem.
