Move to WordPress.com FAQ
Will I lose my Google rankings?
Protect your rankings with redirects: if any page addresses change, redirects send old links and search results to the right page, and our step-by-step guide shows you how to set them up. It also helps to keep the same domain name. Expect some movement in your rankings for a few weeks while search engines catch up.
Will my email keep working?
Moving your site doesn’t move or change your email. Before you connect your domain name, write down your email settings. If you switch name servers, add them on WordPress.com so your email keeps working. Don’t cancel your old plan until your new site and your email both work. Our team can check your settings with you.
What happens to my domain name?
You keep it. After your move, you connect your domain name to your new site, and we’ll guide you through it. Your old site stays as it is until you switch, so nothing goes offline while you check your new site.
Can I transfer my Wix site to WordPress?
Yes. Paste your Wix site’s address and we’ll bring over your pages, images, and design as a WordPress site you own. If your domain name is with Wix, you’ll add a few DNS records to connect it, and we’ll show you how.
Can I move my Squarespace site and keep my design?
Yes. Your layout, colors, and fonts come with you. Give your new site a quick check after your move.
Can I move a site built with Lovable or Base44?
Yes. The pages people see come over as a WordPress site you can edit and grow. App features like logins and databases stay behind.
Do I need to export anything first?
No. Just paste your site’s address and we take it from there. No files, no exports.
My domain name is with Wix. Can I still use it?
Yes. Wix doesn’t let you change name servers, so you’ll add a few DNS records instead. These are settings that point your domain name to your new site. We’ll show you which ones, and you leave your email settings as they are.
How much does it cost?
Moving your site is included with every paid plan. Plans start at a month, billed yearly.
What if my move doesn’t work?
If your move stops, we’ll tell you on screen and by email, and our team helps you finish it. If it still doesn’t work, you get a full refund. Yearly plans come with a 14-day money-back guarantee, and monthly plans with a 7-day one.
Will my contact form work?
Your form comes over with your design and works as a Jetpack form in most cases. Send yourself a test message to make sure it reaches you.
Can I edit my site after it moves?
Yes. It’s a WordPress site you own. Most of your moved site is editable right in the WordPress editor, and our team is here if anything feels tricky.
Can I keep building my site with AI tools?
Yes. WordPress Agent is built in to help you edit pages and write new content. You can also connect AI tools you already use, like Claude or ChatGPT, to your site through MCP, a secure connection that lets them work on your site for you.
Can I move my online store or bookings?
Our team moves stores for you, and you’ll see what comes over before you decide. For bookings, you can move the rest of your site yourself and add your booking link, like Calendly, after.
How long does a move take?
It depends on the size of your site. You don’t need to wait: close the tab and we’ll email you when your new site is ready. If it seems stuck, get in touch and our Happiness Engineers will take a look.
What’s the difference between migrating and importing?
Migrating moves your whole site: pages, images, design, and settings. Importing brings over just your content, like posts or pages. Paste your address and we’ll pick the right option for your site.
Do I need any technical knowledge?
No. Paste your site’s address and we take it from there. Moving a WordPress site? Our free plugin walks you through it, and our team can help or do it for you.
My site is already on WordPress. Can I use this?
Yes. Paste your address and we’ll take you to our WordPress migration.
