Wix or a managed website? Decide who will do the work.

Start with the work you already have

Write down the last three changes your med spa needed online. For example: an approved service description changed; a team member's public information needed replacing; the booking provider supplied a new link. These are illustrations, not a claim about every practice.

For each task, record who noticed it, who supplied the correct information, who changed the website and who checked the result. Add the time spent following up. If the same owner keeps doing every step, the management question is concrete. If a capable team member completes the work easily, another monthly service may solve very little.

Compare responsibilities, not feature lists

Use this worksheet before comparing prices:

A builder plus a retained professional can cover some or all of these jobs. A managed provider may also exclude many of them. The answer belongs in the scope, not in assumptions about the category.

• Design and launch: who turns the brief into the finished approved pages?
• Business facts: who checks services, staff names and contact information?
• Regular changes: who actually edits the site, and what allowance applies?
• Contact paths: who checks the website links and responds when a supported path fails?
• External tools: who owns the booking subscription and its separate support?
• Leaving: who controls the domain, supplied content and available exports?

Use a cost comparison you can inspect

Compare the same period and the same work. Include the platform or service subscription, required setup, third-party tools, separately charged changes and any help you expect to buy. You can also add your own time as a personal decision input. Do not treat that input as money a provider has already saved you.

Example only: imagine Option A costs $40 a month and requires two hours of your time, while Option B costs $240 and covers the same tasks. The fee difference is $200. At a value you choose of $100 per hour, the time difference would balance it. If Option A takes fifteen minutes, or Option B still leaves the editing to you, the conclusion changes. These are hypothetical numbers, not Wix or Konify price quotes.

Ask about the ordinary month

An excellent first design can make the launch fee worthwhile. It does not automatically justify a large recurring fee forever. Ask what useful work is covered once the site is stable. A clear change allowance and actual responsibility are more informative than a promise of “continuous improvement” without examples.

Choose the arrangement you will use

Choose a builder when you want control of editing, your needs fit its features and someone can maintain the site. Choose a builder with a professional when you want that platform and a separate person doing the work. Consider a managed service when you want the build and defined ongoing tasks handled together, and the agreed scope matches your actual requests.

Konify's intended fit is the third situation—not persuading every DIY owner to spend more. Read the managed-service scope and inspect the change workflow before deciding.
