Choosing a Wix Template for your online business is more than just having a nice-looking website. There are several things you should consider when picking the right theme for your brand.
In this post, I tell you exactly what to look out for and I even suggest some amazing templates that I have or would use myself.
Finding a theme with the right layout for your business is so important. The needs of every industry is different regarding the elements and functionality needed to help a customer purchase a product online. A brand that sells sneakers will definitely have different needs than a brand that sells products for acne. Be sure the template you choose aligns with the needs of your business.

Animation
High-resolution images
Image galleries
Image rollover
Image zoom
Product videos
Slideshow
Editorial Content Layout
If you sell products that require a lot of education, an enhanced blog layout may be more important. You want to make sure your customer has access to all of the information that they need to make a purchase decision. Look out for features such as:

Appealing blog banners/ headers

Some products may require more information to be displayed on the product page than others. Make sure you are choosing a theme that best organizes and displays this information in a way that is digestible to the customer and not overwhelming. Things to consider:

Lastly, design everything with your customer in mind. Really think about what is needed to aid your customer in their shopping journey and choose a template that best compliments your customer's shopping behavior.
The BEST advice I can give you is to choose a template that covers the majority of your needs out of the box and requires little to no customization. That will make your life A LOT easier.
