Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:52 am

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably decided to switch from Wix to Squarespace. Maybe you’re not happy with Wix’s designs, or maybe you just want to try something new.

Whatever the reason, we’re here to help you make the transition as smooth as possible.

The first thing you need to do is transfer your domain. This can be a little tricky, but we’ll walk you through the process step-by-step.

First, go to your Wix account and click on the “Domains” tab. From there, find the domain you want to transfer and click on the “Manage” button. On the next page, scroll down to the “Transfer Domain” section and click on the “Begin Transfer” button.

Once you’ve started the transfer process, you’ll need to enter some information about your Squarespace account. The most important piece of information is your Site ID.

You can find this by logging into your Squarespace account and going to the “Settings” page. On that page, scroll down to the “Transfer Domain” section and copy your Site ID. Once you’ve entered that information, just follow the prompts to complete the transfer.

PRO TIP: If you are considering transferring your domain from Wix to Squarespace, be aware that there are potential risks involved.

Your Wix website will be taken offline during the transfer process, which could result in lost traffic and revenue. In addition, your DNS settings will be changed, which could cause disruptions with your email service.

Before proceeding with the transfer, be sure to backup your Wix website and contact your domain registrar to confirm that the transfer will not result in any unexpected charges.

And that’s it! Once the transfer is complete, your domain will be pointing to your Squarespace site. If you have any questions about this process or run into any trouble, our support team is always here to help.

Conclusion:

Transferring your domain from Wix to Squarespace is a fairly simple process, but there are a few things you need to keep in mind. First, make sure you have your Site ID handy.

Second, follow the prompts carefully during the transfer process. And third, if you have any questions or run into any problems, our support team is always here to help.
