Entry plan price rise
Wix raised its Light plan from $17 to $19 a month, billed annually, in August 2026. Its other plans stayed the same.

Wix to WordPress, with every ranking page redirected.
Wix has no export that WordPress can read, so the site has to be rebuilt by hand. We rebuild your pages and blog on WordPress, redirect every page that ranks or has links, and watch your Google traffic for 90 days after launch.
Who this Wix to WordPress migration is for
A good fit
- Small businesses and service companies that need SEO or layout control Wix doesn’t offer
- Blogs and content sites that want full control of their content and hosting
- Owners who want a site they can hand to any WordPress developer later
- Sites with existing Google traffic that can’t afford to start over
Probably not a fit
- Sites with no search traffic and no plans to grow it, where staying on Wix is simpler
- Owners who don’t want to think about hosting, updates, or plugins at all
- Wix stores with complex product catalogs, which need an ecommerce-specific migration
Why Wix sites move to WordPress
Most owners leave Wix when they need more say over their URLs, their SEO, and who can work on the site. A price rise is often what starts the conversation.
A cap on redirects
Wix allows a maximum of 5,000 redirects per site, which can get tight for sites with a long blog history or many product pages.

Control over SEO and code
On WordPress you control URL structure, templates, structured data (the code that tells Google what a page is about), and hosting, and any developer can work on the site.
Is moving off Wix worth it?
Good WordPress hosting costs roughly what a Wix plan does, so expect similar running costs. What you gain is ownership of your URLs, SEO settings, and design, plus the freedom to hire any developer.
Ask us about your siteWhat moves from Wix to WordPress
Wix has no WordPress export, so we copy blog posts across separately, export any Wix CMS content as spreadsheets, and move the rest by hand. The design is rebuilt in WordPress.
| Item | What happens | How we handle it |
|---|---|---|
| Pages and their text | Rebuilt | Rebuilt in WordPress with the same content and structure, matching your current design unless you choose a refresh. |
| Blog posts | Moves unchanged | Moved with their dates and categories, then compared with the live site post by post. |
| Images and files | Moves unchanged | Downloaded from Wix and re-hosted, so nothing depends on your Wix account. |
| SEO titles and descriptions | Moves, with changes | Re-entered page by page in your WordPress SEO plugin. |
| Forms | Rebuilt | Rebuilt with a WordPress form plugin sending to the same inbox. |
| Wix apps (bookings, members, chat) | Moves, with changes | Replaced with a WordPress plugin or a third-party tool. Each one is flagged before you commit. |
| Store products and orders | Moves, with changes | Products can be moved to WooCommerce; order history usually stays as an export for your records. |
Redirects and URLs
The Wix URLs that get missed
Wix creates URL patterns that WordPress doesn’t use. Each pattern needs a rule, or visitors and Google land on “page not found” errors.
Blog posts under /post/
By default Wix puts blog posts at /post/slug, though some sites rename that prefix. We check yours, then keep the same path in WordPress or redirect each post.
Blog archives
Category, tag, and “page 2, 3…” links under /blog/ need matching pages or redirects.
Store and CMS pages
Product pages (under /product-page/ by default) and pages Wix builds from its CMS, like team or listing pages, each need a matching page on the new site.
Image links
Images stored on Wix stop loading when you cancel your plan. We move every image to your new hosting before launch.
Domain and email
If you bought your domain through Wix, we plan the transfer and the switch of its settings so your email and site stay up.

“From” is the starting price for the kind of site described. Prices depend on your site’s size and setup. You get a quote before any work starts, and we don’t bill by the hour.
Our SEO migration guarantee
Nobody can promise rankings after a migration, and we don’t. We commit in writing to the process that protects them.
Every known page is mapped
Every address we find in your sitemap, Search Console, analytics, and backlinks gets a destination: a matching page, the closest match, or a planned removal. You see the full list before launch.
Nothing breaks by accident
Pages you choose to retire are removed on purpose. If any other old link stops working after launch, we fix it.
90 days of monitoring
We watch which pages Google indexes, any errors it reports, and traffic to your moved pages for 90 days, with a report at 30, 60, and 90 days.
We fix our mistakes for free
If something we missed or broke causes a problem in those 90 days, we fix it at no cost.
The guarantee covers our work. It doesn’t cover Google algorithm updates, content you change after launch, pages removed at your request, or problems caused by your host, third-party plugins, or other vendors.
When you should stay on Wix
If your site is a few pages, gets little search traffic, and you’re happy editing it, Wix is a reasonable home. A migration costs more than you’d gain. If you just need better SEO basics, check Wix’s own SEO settings first. Move when you need control Wix doesn’t offer.

Common questions about moving from Wix to WordPress.
Can Wix export my site to WordPress?+
Not directly. Wix has no WordPress export for your pages or design, so we rebuild the pages and copy blog content across separately.
Will I lose my Google rankings?+
A short dip is common after any move. On Wix sites, the links that break most often are blog posts under /post/ and product pages, so we redirect those along with every page we find in your sitemap, Search Console, analytics, and backlinks, then track rankings for 90 days.
Will my site look the same?+
By default, yes. We rebuild it to match your current design. A design refresh during the move is available as an add-on.
What about my domain and email?+
We plan the switch so your domain, email, and site keep working. If the domain is registered with Wix, we help transfer it.
How long does it take?+
Most Wix sites with up to 15 pages and a blog take about two to four weeks.
Who hosts the new site?+
You do, on hosting you own. We recommend a managed WordPress host and set everything up in your account.
