Wix migration to Next.js or AstroMove off Wix.

Next.js or Astro with a headless CMS. Your design, blog, CMS content, and URLs come with you.

  • Free assessment, fixed price in writing
  • Redirect map before any code
  • Search Console checks at launch, day 30, and day 60

How do you migrate from Wix without losing SEO?

Wix has no code export, so the design is rebuilt and the content moves on its own track. What search engines already know moves first, and Wix stays live until the cutover.

● Top 3 URLs bring 94% of clicks. They’re protected first.

Illustrative example

  1. Every indexed URL from Search Console, the sitemap, and a full crawl, ranked by clicks and backlinks. Content comes out through the Wix APIs, exports, or a structured crawl of the live site.

  2. Wix’s fixed patterns, like /post/ for blog posts, can stay 1:1 or move to a cleaner structure. Every changed URL gets a reviewed 301, and redirects already set in Wix are carried over and flattened.

  3. Titles, descriptions, canonicals, structured data, and alt text, compared page by page against the live Wix site on staging.

  4. On launch day we test every redirect and submit the new sitemap. Then we check Search Console for 404s and lost queries at launch, day 30, and day 60.

Easy to start. Hard to leave.

Four limits teams hit once the site matters.

  • 01

    The site can’t leave Wix

    There’s no code export. Your design, pages, and settings only run on Wix hosting, so moving means rebuilding.

  • 02

    Little control over what loads

    Markup, scripts, and much of the page weight come from the platform, which limits how far you can tune speed and Core Web Vitals.

  • 03

    Content structure stays simple

    Blog, CMS collections, and dynamic pages cover the basics. Deeper relations, reuse, and multi-channel content need workarounds.

  • 04

    Custom code lives inside Wix

    Velo code runs only on the platform. As product needs grow, logic ends up split between Wix and outside services.

SEO preserved.

Nobody can promise rankings. We guarantee the process: Search Console checks at launch, day 30, and day 60, and any redirect or indexing issue from the move fixed within the project price.

  • Crawl of every indexed URL, cross-checked with Search Console and analytics
  • 1:1 URL parity where possible; reviewed 301 map where not
  • Titles, descriptions, canonicals, and Open Graph carried over
  • Structured data preserved or improved
  • XML sitemap and robots.txt regenerated
  • Image alt text and file paths migrated
  • Pre-launch crawl on staging to catch broken links and redirect chains
  • Search Console checks for indexing, 404s, and lost queries at launch, day 30, and day 60

Six steps.

Wix stays live until the new site is ready.

Wix questions.

Anything else, ask on the call.

Can you export our site from Wix?

Wix doesn’t export site code, so we rebuild the design in components. Content moves through exports, the Wix APIs, or a structured crawl of the live site, depending on what each part allows. Nobody retypes anything by hand.

What happens to our blog?

Posts, authors, categories, tags, and images move into the new CMS. Old blog URLs either keep their paths or get reviewed 301 redirects to the new structure.

Can you keep our design?

Yes. We rebuild the current design closely, responsive layouts included. If you want a redesign, we plan it as a separate phase.

We have Velo code. What happens to it?

We review it in the assessment. Most of it becomes regular code in your repository, API routes, or a small serverless function.

Next.js or Astro?

Astro suits content-heavy marketing sites that should ship little JavaScript. Next.js fits when the site sits close to your product, with login, dynamic pricing, or app features. We recommend one in the assessment and explain why.

What would it take?

URLs, CMS, integrations, and risks, ending in a fixed scope and timeline.
