How to export your Wix website
You cannot export the site itself. You can take your data, one piece at a time.
The short answer
Wix says a site has to run on Wix's servers and does not support hosting anywhere else. Wix explains it here. What you can do is export your data and recreate the site somewhere else.
What you can export, and how
- 1
Contacts
In your dashboard, open Contacts, then Import / Export, then Export. Choose the contacts and a format. Wix allows up to 50,000 at once, and only the site owner can do it.
- 2
Store products
In your dashboard, open Products, select or filter, then More Actions, then Export. Files hold up to 5,000 rows, and digital products are not supported.
- 3
Form submissions
Open Forms & Submissions, choose More Actions next to the form, then View submissions. Select them and export. Dates come out in UTC.
- 4
CMS collections
Open the CMS, choose the collection, then More Actions, then Export to CSV. Choose what to include and download the file.
- 5
Media files
Open the Media Manager and download the files you uploaded.
What does not come with you
The design and layout stay on Wix. Wix says blog posts cannot be exported to other platforms today, and lists that as a feature request. See the request. Free Wix and Shutterstock media from its library cannot be downloaded.
Before you cancel anything
Set page redirects in the URL Redirect Manager, under the SEO tools, if you want them on Wix for now. It needs a custom domain and cannot redirect the homepage. A domain bought through Wix can be transferred away, which usually takes up to 7 days and disconnects it from your site. See the Wix steps.
Our advice, on any platform: keep the old site live until the new one is tested, and put the page redirects on the new host. A redirect set on the old platform only runs while your domain still points there.
Exporting from Wix
Is there any way to export the whole site?
We found no whole-site export in Wix's own documents, and Wix says the site cannot be hosted elsewhere.
How do I get my blog posts out?
Wix says there is no export. Developers can read posts through the Wix Blog API. Otherwise they are copied by hand.
