Migration guide · Updated July 2026
Move from Wix without losing the parts that make your site work.
Wix sites cannot be downloaded and installed on another web host. We use the live site, your original files, and your requirements to rebuild it in WordPress.

- Planning level
- Some manual work
- Old site stays live
- Until final checks pass
What the export really gives us
A website export is rarely the whole website.
Wix says its SaaS architecture must run on Wix servers. Your words and media belong to you, but the Wix layout and platform features do not transfer as a working website.
What we can carry over
- Page text
- Original media you can download
- Blog and store data that Wix allows you to export
- Domain ownership and existing email service
What we recreate or reconnect
- Page layouts and responsive styling
- Wix forms and automations
- Bookings, member areas, and app features
- Menus, SEO settings, redirects, and tracking connections
The replacement does not have to be WordPress
A Wix site whose job is explaining services can be rebuilt as a custom static site instead.
How we choose between WordPress and staticPrepare the handoff
Gather this before we start.
You do not need to understand all of it. Tell us what you can access and where you get stuck.
- The email address used for the Wix owner account
- A list of every domain connected to the site
- Original logo, photos, videos, PDFs, and brand fonts if you have them
- A list of forms, automations, bookings, memberships, store features, and third-party apps
- Recent form notifications or lead emails so we can trace where inquiries go
Instructions for Wix
What to do in your current account.
Open the published site and list every page in the main menu, footer, and any members-only area.
In the Wix dashboard, open Media Manager and download the original files you want to keep. Put logos, photos, documents, and videos into clearly named folders.
Export contacts, form submissions, products, orders, blog posts, or bookings from the related Wix dashboard areas when those features are in use.
Open Domains in Wix and note whether Wix is the registrar or whether the domain only points to Wix. Do not transfer or disconnect it yet.
Take screenshots of desktop and mobile pages, popups, forms, confirmation messages, and any behavior that is not visible to the public.
Invite 330 Hosting as a collaborator after we confirm the correct role. Never send a password through the intake form.
How 330 Hosting handles the move
We rebuild first. We point the domain last.
- 01
Inventory first
We crawl the public site, list its URLs, record forms and integrations, and separate the domain, DNS, website, and email services.
- 02
Build away from the live domain
We create the replacement without changing the website visitors currently see. Your old site stays available during the work.
- 03
Review the jobs that matter
You check the words, photos, navigation, forms, calls, bookings, store behavior, and mobile layout. We correct issues before launch.
- 04
Copy DNS and launch
We preserve mail and verification records, point only the needed website records, enable SSL, and test both the old and new paths.
- 05
Watch and verify
We check forms, analytics, redirects, indexing controls, error pages, and email delivery after the change. Only then should the old website plan be canceled.
Three things to check twice.
- Do not cancel Wix before the new site passes review.
- Changing Wix nameservers can also remove email records. We copy DNS records before cutover.
- A domain transfer and a website move are separate jobs. The domain can stay registered at Wix if that is safer.
Migration help
Tell us what the site needs to do for your business.
The live pages are only part of the job. We need to know where leads go, what customers can do, what advertising depends on the site, and what cannot break.
Hosting is $15 per month.
There is no migration fee.
Questions that are the same for every builder
Whether the site goes offline, what happens to email and the domain, and how the $0 migration fee works are answered once, on the migration overview.
