Food Blogs on Wix

Wix is a great choice for pretty much all types of website, including of course food blogs. A drag and drop editor, beautiful designs and plenty of customization options mean it is easy to create clean, modern and elegant websites for many purposes, including food blogs.

Standard food blog features like high quality photography, cooking tips, personal anecdotes, travel advice and more are all easily achieved with Wix 'out the box'. The ability to publish recipes instantly and to make changes to your website on the go are also very handy indeed.

With the help of the Recipe Maker Wix plugin, we're going to show you how you can also solve a few of the more thorny issues that you might find, which are unique to food blogs on Wix.

There can be certain challenges unique to food blogs, particularly around displaying recipes on the blog. Food bloggers are likely to run into at least one of the following problems:

• The need to add attractive and responsive recipe card designs
• The need to allow users to print a recipe for later use
• Users should be able to convert measurement units (e.g. US customary to metric conversions)
• The importance of SEO for these recipe cards

Without advanced coding skills, these challenges would be very hard to overcome. Luckily, Recipe Maker has been designed to help with all these tasks and more! Let's see how we can help you create your food blog on Wix:

Stunning designs

Recipe Maker allows you to easily add recipe cards to your Wix food blog. The app contains a number of template designs, all of which are responsive and this work perfectly on a PC, tablet or phone. Each design has sections with useful features, for example headers, image galleries, cooking times and so on. Best of all, you retain the full power of the Wix editor, so you are free to add new sections and content to all Recipe Maker templates easily.

Users can print recipes

Recipe Maker allows users to print recipes by clicking the 'print recipe' button available on every template (and note that this can be toggled on or off, if you prefer to not use this feature). The user can then print the recipe in full color or black or white. The printed recipe only contains the most important details of the recipe, to saves on printing costs for the user.

Conversion of measurement units

Recipe Maker makes gives site visitors the ability to convert measurement units on any recipes you create. We allow you to convert from US customary to metric, and metric to US customary. This ensures that you can input the recipe in whatever format you are most comfortable with, and site visitors can convert the ingredients as needed.

SEO for recipe cards

Without a plugin like Recipe Maker, SEO for your recipe cards would be exceptionally challenging. After providing Recipe Maker with a few quick details, you are able to automatically add structured data to all your recipes.
