Moving from Wix to Next.js

Wix blog posts cannot be exported to other platforms, so posts and pages are copied across and checked one by one. CMS collections export to CSV. On Next.js, old addresses are mapped to the new pages with permanent redirects.

What comes out of Wix

Wix blog posts cannot be exported to other platforms, so posts and pages are copied across and checked one by one. CMS collections export to CSV.

Wix Stores exports products and their data to a CSV file, up to 5,000 rows per file. Digital products cannot be exported.

How we run the move

List every page, product, form and integration on the old site, including the ones nobody has opened in a while.

Map each old address to its new page before anything is switched over.

Build and check the new Next.js site on a private link, then switch over with redirects in place.

Check Search Console and the busiest pages in the weeks after the switch.

Running the site on Next.js

Deploys to a Node.js server, a Docker container, static hosting or a supported platform adapter.

Features come from libraries and services chosen for the project, such as authentication libraries.

Pages and blog postsWix blog posts cannot be exported to other platforms, so posts and pages are copied across and checked one by one. CMS collections export to CSV. Content moves into the content source chosen for the build, then pages are generated from it.
ProductsWix Stores exports products and their data to a CSV file, up to 5,000 rows per file. Digital products cannot be exported. Products live in the commerce service connected to the new site.
Images and filesDownloaded from the old site, uploaded again and relinked in the content.
Page addressesOld addresses are mapped to the new pages with permanent redirects.
Page titles and descriptionsCarried across page by page so search results keep showing accurate titles and summaries.
Forms and integrationsRebuilt on the new platform and tested end to end, including where each submission is delivered.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Will we lose our Google rankings moving from Wix to Next.js?

Some movement is normal after any site move. Google's site move guidance centres on mapping every old address to its new page with permanent redirects, which is the main safeguard.[1]

What can we take out of Wix?

Wix blog posts cannot be exported to other platforms, so posts and pages are copied across and checked one by one. CMS collections export to CSV.[2][3]

Do you handle Wix to Next.js moves?

Yes. Next.js is one of the platforms we build on, and we recommend it when it suits the jobs your site has to do. If another platform fits better, we say so. We plan the move from Wix and say plainly if anything cannot be carried across.
