If I'm going to be using Wix for my website design layout

But why not use SQUARESPACE?

Squarespace makes it super simple to build it beautiful, build your website however you want so that it looks great on any device, and for a limited time only you can use offer code LINUS at the link in the video description to get $10 off if you purchase a domain for one year! Squarespace: You Should!

 

/s jk use whatever you want :P

Well you could just get a cheap domain,get a host from like 000webhost and then just upload your HTML,CSS etc to the database,but you will need to create your own website by coding and not from a Website Builder

Well I know there was a coupon for $1 domain for a year via godaddy but I'm not aware of it's location

Their website got a database password leak that was all in plain text. 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

Also a word of advice that will save you a lot of headache down the road: NEVER get a domain through your web hosting provider. Always buy your domain from a reputable (ICANN accredited) registrar and never transfer it to a hosting company. If you get a "free" domain, transfer it out as soon as possible.

Even if I told you you've never heard of them, but just hold on for a second. Are you interested in buying only a domain or domain+hosting? This thread has me a little confused about that, but based on the pricing I think you're interested in a domain+hosting?

The ability to google properly is a skill of its own.

Domain, hosting and website builder :). I've had some experience with Square space but it wasn't exactly the best experience ever.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.

Oh, a website builder as well. Sadly I've no idea about that except Square Space, I've only used WP.
