Wix is a closed website builder, so moving to Disoh means rebuilding your site on WordPress (or another platform) rather than transferring files directly. It is very doable, and it is a chance to improve your site. This guide explains how.
Why Wix is different #
Wix does not let you export a ready-to-run website, so you cannot simply copy files across. Instead, you recreate your site on Disoh, usually with WordPress, and bring your content over manually.
Step 1: Gather your content #
- Copy your text from each page.
- Download your images.
- Note your page structure and menus.
Step 2: Build your new site on Disoh #
- Install WordPress with one click.
- Choose a theme and recreate your pages.
- Add your text and upload your images.
- Set up your menus and forms, and enable SSL.
Step 3: Keep your SEO #
Match your new page URLs to the old ones where possible, or set up redirects, so you keep your search rankings. Keep your page titles and descriptions consistent.
Step 4: Point your domain #
Once the new site is ready and tested, point your domain to Disoh. If your domain is with Wix, you can transfer it or update its settings to point here.
