We are using Wix for a new business website and I would now like to transfer over my older companies to Wix - These are on Wordpress or which many plug-ins are failing. They are quite content heavy websites especially with articles / blogs, but also on pages.
My question is, can a wordpress website be moved across easily to Wix?
If my website is on Wix, can I be sure that all the content is safe / saved (I usually have a back up done of my Wordpress websites for security).
Is there a service on Wix that helps those not to affluent on website building to transfer old websites to Wix?
Websites are:
Yes and No. All the blogs can be imported, but the actual design will need to be rebuilt. There is no automatic click and transfer of everything.
Any plugins will not transfer. You will need to either use Wix apps or custom codeding.
Yes, but it works differently to Wordpress backups.
With Wix:
Hosting + infrastructure is fully managed by Wix
Your site is:
- Automatically saved (no need for manual backups)
- Stored in secure cloud infrastructure
- You also get:
- Site History (restore points) — you can roll back your site if needed
That said, if you’re cautious (which is smart), you can still export CMS collections and keep local copies of blog content/images
Yes, you can hire experts from the Marketplace to do all the work. Or import the content yourself and hire a developer to help with structure, dynamic pages, SEO setup and any advanced functionality you require.
