Hello, I'm Paul from SiteBuilders.PROFAQ
Q: How long does it take to transfer a website to Wix?
A: The average time to replicate all the website design, text and graphic content takes up to 5-7 business days. However, the final time estimate depends on a website size and its design complexity.
For instance, a website up to 10 pages could be transferred in a 5-day term, while a site with 20-30 pages – in 10 days.

Q: Is Wix better than WordPress and what’s the key difference?
A: In order not to start a holy war between Wix and WordPress fans we can say that each platform is created to solve user’s tasks. If these tasks are not solved or the user’s skills aren’t enough, a website building platform should be changed.
Both Wix and WordPress have lots of pros – you may see that from our comparison. Eventually, it’s all up to you to decide whether to switch or not. We are here just to make a transfer process smoother.

Q: Will my old website be online during the transfer process?
A: Yes, your old website will be constantly online. Transfer process is the way of replicating a website. It means that I create a copy of your existing website on a Wix account.
Your old website will be accessible over the internet until the domain name is connected to the new website

Q: Can I edit my new Wix website on my own when your job is done?
A: Yes, you can edit your new Wix website as you wish. Wix is a very user-friendly website builder, so you won’t require even a slight learning curve to cope with that.
Moreover, don’t worry about breaking your website. If you do something during the editing process, you may easily restore your project from a backup as Wix creates them automatically after each editing action.

Q: Will my domain name remain the same after my site is transferred?
A: Yes, your domain name remains the same on a new Wix website. There are two ways of connecting your domain name: either by changing name servers in your domain name registrar dashboard or by completing the domain name transfer to Wix.
I recommend implementing the second option only after you are definitely sure that you stay with Wix for years.

Q: Will my new Wix website be an exact copy of the old WordPress one?
A: As a rule I try to replicate a website with 100% match to the original. However, there are several cases which cannot be replicated using standard Wix features.
