Wix was easy to start with. It's only hard to leave.
A site put together in an afternoon, then years of paying to keep it online. I move your pages, content and Google rankings to a custom website that is yours, with the code and every access detail.
Where it starts to cost. Not on day one, but as the business grows.
- Export
The site only exists inside Wix
Wix has no full-site export. Products and contacts can come out as CSV, but pages, design and most of the content stay inside. You are paying rent, not owning.
- Speed
A lot of code for a simple page
Every page carries the platform's scripts, including those for features you don't use. You can compress your images, but not what Wix loads underneath them.
- Limits
The template decides what's possible
Bookings with your own rules, an enquiry that works out a price, a trade catalogue. When you need something Wix doesn't have, the choice is an app from the marketplace or giving up.
- Cost
Small charges you pay forever
A plan without Wix ads, a plan for the store, apps for what the plan can't do. Each item is small, but you pay it for as long as the site exists.
How the site moves when there is no export.
- Content
Content is taken from the published site
Because there is no full export, I take pages and posts from the published site, and products and contacts from Wix's CSV exports. Every text, image and document is listed and checked, so nothing gets left behind.
- URLs
Wix URLs lead to new ones
Page, blog post (/post/) and product (/product-page/) URLs get 301 redirects, with meta titles and descriptions. The rankings the site built on Google come with it.
- Switchover
The domain stays, its destination changes
I build the new site alongside, on a preview address. The domain stays registered where it is and only its DNS records change, so the switch takes minutes. You cancel Wix once everything is checked.
Send me your website. You'll get advice and two time slots.
Enter your address and a few details. An email with advice for your platform and two open slots for a call arrives straight away, and I'll look at your site personally and get back to you.
- Advice for your platform you can act on right now, without me
- A personal look at your website and an idea for your business
- Two open slots for a 30-minute call, one click to book
Frequently asked questions
Not in full, Wix doesn't offer it. That's why I migrate from the published site and the exports that do exist (products, contacts), and check every page by hand.
No. The domain can stay where it is, and only the records that say where it points change. If you want to move it to another registrar, you do that yourself, in your own name, and it's the one step that can take a few days.
Yes, and it's usually the biggest gain of the move. Bookings and the store become part of the site, with your business's rules instead of an app's.
Not if the migration is done properly. Every old URL gets a 301 redirect, meta titles and descriptions move with it, and after the switch I watch Search Console until the index settles. A drop in traffic after a migration is a sign nobody did that work, not a consequence of the migration.
It depends on the scope and on whether a redesign comes with it. Roughly the same as a build: a website 3–6 weeks, a web shop 6–12 weeks. The exact timeline is in the proposal, before work starts.
No. You cancel the old platform only once the new site is live and we've checked that content, redirects and, for a shop, orders are all in place. Until then the old site runs as it always has.
Because migrating a five-page website and a shop with thousands of products are not the same job. After a call and a look at your site you get a fixed proposal, and that figure holds until the end of the project.
The site comes with maintenance: updates, security monitoring, daily backups and uptime monitoring. Alongside it comes SEO + AEO, so after the move the site doesn't stand still but gets found by search engines and AI models.
