Switching from Wix to WordPress
As someone who manages a Wix store on a daily basis, you may have been won over by the “quick and easy” aspect—only to realize later just how limiting the platform is for those who truly want to grow their businesses. That’s what 85% of the clients we’ve helped migrate from Wix to WordPress told us.
While Wix may be a suitable platform for small businesses and small showcase websites, it lacks the flexibility and scalability that businesses need to grow. With WordPress, you can choose from thousands of themes and plugins to customize your site, and there are no limits to the customizations you can make or the amount of traffic your site can handle.
WordPress is widely considered the best platform for SEO. It offers a wide range of features and plugins that allow you to optimize your website for better visibility in search engines. Wix, on the other hand, does not offer as many SEO features. This means that if you want to attract more visitors from search engines, you should switch to WordPress.

How is the migration going?
- Together, we will draw up an initial set of specifications, and you will provide us with a list of the pages, articles, products, and other content you wish to migrate, as well as those you no longer wish to keep.
- It’s important to think ahead about the features or elements you want to keep or add (such as contact forms, social media integration, etc.). You should also decide whether there are any design elements or features from your current site that you want to keep for aesthetic reasons—or whether, on the contrary, you want to improve or adapt certain elements before migrating.
- By taking a step back and analyzing your existing site, we’ll get a sense of what needs to be done to ensure a smooth transition. We’ll start with a brief look back at the site’s history, reviewing all structural aspects—such as navigation menus and internal linking patterns—which will help us better understand where certain types of content are located on the site.
- The fourth step is to create a WordPress site configured to meet your current needs, as well as any needs you may have in the future. Unfortunately, no official automatic import solution has been created yet. After setting up the dashboard for your WordPress site, we’ll need to import posts, pages, media, and orders separately. Pages will even need to be recreated one by one using the new page builder you’ve chosen—usually Elementor.
- During a migration, it’s important to plan how old URLs will be redirected. Without this step, Google and other search engines may stop indexing the content, which could also cause visitors to receive a 404 error when they try to access those pages. To avoid these issues, we’ll create a straightforward redirect plan for your visitors so they don’t get lost trying to find their way around after the site has changed its URLs!
- The final step in the migration process is testing. This step is essential to ensure that the site is fully functional and that there are no issues with the redirected URLs. First, we will test the entire WordPress site to ensure that all content has been transferred correctly and that everything is working properly. Next, we’ll test each URL in the Wix format to ensure that it actually redirects to the equivalent page on WordPress. This testing step is essential to ensuring the success of the site migration .
Why Should You Switch from Wix to WordPress?
Wix has attracted quite a few beginners thanks to aggressive marketing and its efforts to make the field more accessible, but in reality, there are a plethora of reasons why WordPress is poised to take the throne over Wix.
Among all these reasons, here is a selection of the reasons why our customers decided to switch from Wix to WordPress:
- Wix is a proprietary platform, which means you’re limited to the tools and features it provides. WordPress , on the other hand, is open source, so you can expand your store’s functionality by installing plugins developed by a community of thousands of independent developers. This community creates plugins for everything from social media integration to payment processing and SEO.
- Wix sites are hosted on Wix’s own servers, which means you don’t have full control over your store’s infrastructure. If they decide to shut down the platform, your store will go down with it. With WordPress, you can host your store on the server of your choice, giving you full control over your store’s availability.
- Wix stores aren't easy to migrate to another platform. If you decide to switch to another CMS, you'll have to start from scratch and build your store from the ground up. With WordPress, you can export your products, customers, and orders with just a few clicks.
- Let’s be honest: WordPress is so popular that if you run into a problem, someone else has probably encountered it before you. This makes it easy to find solutions to any issues you face. However, that doesn’t mean you won’t run into any problems while using WordPress. Although the community is large and helpful, there are always issues that can be difficult to resolve. That’s where our team comes in. We have experienced developers who’ve seen it all!
