Platforms: Moving from Wix
Outgrown Wix? We move the site to WordPress, free, and look after it from there.
Wix got you online fast. Then the site got slow, the subscription kept climbing, SEO hit a ceiling and every change was still on you. SpeedSolid rebuilds the site on WordPress, keeps your rankings with proper redirects, and takes over hosting, updates, security and support.
Why people leave Wix
The six reasons businesses outgrow Wix.
Wix is a fine place to start. These are the moments owners tell us it stopped fitting.
Slow pages, especially on a phone
Wix pages carry a heavy script load you cannot remove. Core Web Vitals scores stay low no matter how you optimize images, and Google notices.
SEO ceiling
Limited control over URL structure, schema and technical SEO. Competitors on WordPress with the same content outrank you.
Subscription creep
The business plan, the booking app, the forms app, the email, the extra storage. The monthly bill keeps growing and still no one to call.
Apps that stop working
Third-party Wix apps change pricing, lose features or disappear, taking your booking or store with them.
Still doing it all yourself
Wix support answers Wix questions. Nobody is watching your site, testing your forms or updating anything for you.
Locked in
You cannot export a Wix site. Leaving means rebuilding, which is why people stay longer than they should. We do the rebuild for free.
How the move works
Your Wix site, rebuilt on WordPress and looked after by a team.
- Every page, image, blog post and product copied from Wix into WordPress, with a faithful design or an upgrade
- Permanent redirects from every old Wix URL so rankings and inbound links carry over
- Booking, forms, galleries and store rebuilt with maintained WordPress tools, tested daily
- Domain pointed to SpeedSolid with no downtime; email kept exactly as it is
- Google Search Console and Business Profile updated and watched for 30 days
- Monthly updates, backups, security and uptime monitoring from day one
- Accessibility menu, statement and cookie consent included on Core Plus and Core Pro
- One team that knows your site, a phone number and tickets monitored 24/7/365
What you keep, and what you gain
You keep: your domain, your email, your content, your Google rankings and your design if you like it.
You gain: a site that loads in a second or two on a phone, full control of SEO, no app subscriptions, and a human team doing updates, backups, security and fixes every month.
Cost: the migration is free on every plan. Core Plus at $149.99 per month is the usual landing spot for a former Wix Business site and often costs less than the Wix plan plus apps.

How we compare
Why not stay on Wix, hire a freelancer or do nothing?
Builders are built for people who want to do it themselves. The question is whether you still want to.
| What matters | SpeedSolid | A freelancer | Big-box host | Doing nothing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Who answers when the site is down | One team that knows your site, phone and tickets 24/7/365, site-down handled first | Whoever built it, if they still reply | A chat queue that does not know your website | Nobody, until a customer tells you |
| Updates and security patches | Monthly updates, urgent fixes right away, malware monitoring and cleanup | When you remember to ask | Server only. Your WordPress, plugins and forms are on you | Never, until the site is hacked |
| Contact form delivery | Authenticated email, a test submission every day | Set up once, never checked again | Not their problem | Leads silently go to spam |
| Backups | Monthly full backup plus a copy before every update round, restore for $50 | Maybe | Often a paid add-on, restore on you | None |
| Accessibility and cookie tools | Included on Core Plus and Core Pro, with a statement page and consent banner | Extra project | Not offered | Exposed to demand letters |
| Price | From $99.99 a month, no contract | $75 to $150 an hour, unpredictable | $30 to $60 a month plus every fix at your cost | Free, until it is not |
Your first 30 days
What happens in the first 30 days.
You keep running the business. We rebuild, you review, we switch. Headquartered in California with teams and clients in Texas, New York, Florida and Hawaii, servers in multiple US regions, support in US business hours.
Days 1 to 5: copy and plan
We export every page, image, product and blog post from Wix, map the URLs and agree the design: a faithful rebuild or an upgrade.
Days 6 to 20: rebuild and review
The site is rebuilt on WordPress on a private test address. You click through it on your phone and send changes. Forms, booking and ordering are tested.
Days 21 to 30: switch and watch
Domain pointed, redirects live, sitemap submitted, email untouched. We watch Search Console and uptime for 30 days and start the monthly routine.
What your site runs on
Enterprise infrastructure, with a human team in front of it.
SpeedSolid runs on enterprise cloud infrastructure that is audited and monitored around the clock, and we pass those commitments down to your website. What that infrastructure does not include is someone who knows your site and answers the phone. That part is us.
Audited data centers
Independently audited for SOC 1, SOC 2 and SOC 3, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS Level 1, with HIPAA-eligible infrastructure available on Core Pro private servers.
Published uptime commitments
Core Pro private cloud and managed WordPress servers carry a 99.99% commitment, shared hosting 99.9%, with a 24/7/365 network operations center behind all three.
East and West Coast servers
Northern California, Los Angeles and Ashburn, Virginia, with an Amsterdam option for European traffic. Your site sits closest to your customers.
Uptime commitments and certifications apply to the underlying infrastructure. SpeedSolid plan commitments are listed on the pricing page.
FAQ
Questions we get asked
Can you export my Wix site?
Wix does not allow exporting a site, so we rebuild it page by page on WordPress using your content and images, with the design matched or improved. You review the new site before anything switches.
What about my Wix bookings or store?
Bookings move to a maintained WordPress scheduling tool or your preferred service embedded, and products move to WooCommerce. Both are tested after every update round.
Will I lose my Google rankings when I move?
Not if the move is done properly. We map every old URL to its new address with permanent redirects, keep titles and descriptions, submit the new sitemap and watch Search Console for 30 days. Most sites hold or improve.
How long does a migration take?
A typical 10 to 30 page site is rebuilt, reviewed by you and switched over in two to three weeks. The switch itself takes minutes and the old site stays live until you approve the new one.
Do I still need the old subscription?
Only until the new site is live. Then you cancel it. Many clients find the SpeedSolid plan costs about the same as the builder’s business tier and includes a human team.
Do you work with businesses outside California?
Yes. SpeedSolid is headquartered in California with teams and clients in Texas, New York, Florida and Hawaii. Servers sit in multiple US regions and support runs in US business hours.
What does it cost?
The migration is free. Hosting and support plans are $99.99, $149.99 and from $299.99 per month, month to month, with 10 percent off for annual payment. If the site needs a redesign rather than a straight move, we quote that separately at $150 per hour or a fixed price.
