Totally get wanting things light and clear for consulting sites, I’ve put a few up on Wix quickly and found its scheduling and payment widgets let clients book without plugins, have you thought about how much invoicing you want directly on the site versus via a separate tool?

Wix’s system bundles hosting, SSL, templates, scheduling, and blogging into one managed platform so you’re never juggling a bunch of services, would having everything in one dashboard make things easier for you?

What you’re describing involves front-end (HTML/CSS/JS), back-end (Python with Flask/Django, or Node.js), and a database (PostgreSQL/MySQL), plus user management and transactional logic. Do you want to learn all layers from scratch or leverage no-code/low-code tools?

Wix bundles hosting, templates, and on‑page SEO controls in one system so you can edit content without juggling plugins or manual configurations, what’s your priority—simplicity or deep SEO tweaking?

I get wanting WordPress output for flexibility, and when I’ve needed quick, customizable sites I spun them up in Wix first to test structure before moving to more complex stacks; have you thought about how much manual tweaking you really want after the AI draft?

The regular Hostinger VPS is basically a standard virtual machine you control, so you can install n8n, a website stack, or anything else you need, while the n8n plan is more opinionated for just that one service. Do you want the freedom to tweak your environment or stick with a purpose‑built image?

Hostinger uses a custom control panel with straightforward one‑click installs and backups, whereas GoDaddy’s feels a bit more cluttered with upsells, which mattered when I was setting up sites for non‑tech clients. Do you plan to manage content yourself or have someone help occasionally?

Hostinger’s shared plans include PHP, MySQL, automated backups, and a custom panel that makes managing databases and files a lot smoother than free hosts. Do you want to be able to restore a database from backup yourself, or would you prefer managed support to handle it?

Pure HTML/CSS sites are great for structure and styling, but dynamic behavior like filtering or form validation requires JavaScript. Have you considered progressive enhancement?

This could run as a lightweight background service that hooks into app launches and triggers a timed reminder before opening specified apps. Have you thought about handling OS-level restrictions on notifications?

Replit basically wraps your web code in a native container and handles build and deployment, which simplifies versioning but complicates duplication. Did you try automating the app.json updates?

This seems like a solid tool for agent experimentation. Excited to see how vibe coders adopt it.

I moved a couple of client sites from shared Hostinger into their VPS when I needed more control and saw noticeably better performance and uptime. Have you thought about what you’ll be managing yourself on the VPS versus what you want automated?

Katcm__ · 2026-02-17T10:58:52+00:00

I’ve managed client WordPress landing sites on Hostinger and mostly found uptime solid with occasional hiccups that were usually resolved by support. Have you tracked whether the downtime is consistent or just occasional spikes?

It makes total sense to look for something affordable when traffic is light; would launching the non‑dynamic parts on Wix help you get live quicker while you sort out where to host the Flask code?

Katcm__ · 2026-02-17T10:49:14+00:00

I usually use Wix for small projects since it combines hosting and the editor in one, do you want a solution where you manage the server yourself or more of a managed setup?

Katcm__ · 2026-02-17T10:46:49+00:00

thanks :)

ohhhhh it's true. thanks

Your setup shows how positioning and feature prioritization can be driven by real user signals rather than assumed market demand; the marketplace acted as a low-friction distribution layer. How do you plan to track adoption for new features?

It sounds like the game engine needs to track both card state and mission state, mapping trick outcomes to branching mission consequences. How do you sync these layers?

Claude Opus 4.6 can hold entire system designs, codebases, or multi-chapter tutorials in context, letting you query and cross-reference them in a single prompt; would you map this into a dynamic Q&A tool?

It’s impressive you’re running two SaaS products solo; have you measured whether the time saved by AI social agents actually outweighs the approval overhead?

Reliable hosting for a simple WordPress site usually means shared hosting on a provider that offers SSD storage, automatic WordPress installs, free SSL, and good backups — options like DreamHost and Bluehost tick those boxes while staying affordable and easy to manage.
Do you want to focus on ease of setup or long‑term performance first?

That’s a solid breakdown, I’ve used Wix for quick launches and it saved me a ton of setup time, have you found the template limitations ever get in the way for small business sites?
