Customize Your Site’s Member Experience with Velo.png

If you already have a Wix membership site and want to enhance it, or if you want to build a custom membership site from scratch, this course is for you. Membership sites allow users to create and subsequently sign in with their accounts, like many online stores and social platforms, and are a great way to build community. We will use Velo to customize the Members Area so you can get the most out of membership for your visitors and business. We will then learn how to efficiently manage members and communicate with members, using code. To conclude, your skills will be put to test with a final project.
