Migrations — Wix → Claude Code

Wix to Claude Code migration.

Wix makes it easy to launch and hard to leave: your content, your design and your SEO all live inside a platform you don't control. We rebuild your site as plain, fast code on Claude Code that you own outright - keeping your content and rankings - so performance, search and integrations are finally yours to control.

What actually changes.

The same site, the same content, a completely different foundation. Everything on the left disappears; everything it did is either built into the code or no longer needed.

Why move

Three things you stop paying for.

You own the code

Plain code in a repository in your name. No platform subscription holding your site hostage, no export wall, no lock-in.

Speed Wix can't reach

Wix's editor adds weight you can't strip out. Rebuilt as code, your site loads instantly and meets Core Web Vitals thresholds, which helps rankings and conversion alike.

SEO done properly

Full control of URLs, metadata, structured data and redirects - the technical SEO levers Wix keeps behind its own walls.

How rankings survive the move.

The SEO-safe migration, in one glance

Redesigns lose rankings through skipped redirects, so we never skip them. Every migration runs the same four checks, in order, and the last one happens after launch, not before.

Step 1

URL inventory

Every URL on the old site crawled and recorded, with its rankings, backlinks and traffic noted. Nothing moves until the full map exists.

the complete map
Step 2

Rebuild, mirrored

Content, titles, metadata and structured data carried over one to one. The design can be kept faithful or sharpened; the crawlable structure stays deliberate.

staging site, verified
Step 3

Redirects, one to one

Every old URL 301-redirects to its exact successor. No wildcard shortcuts, no redirect chains, no orphaned pages.

Crawl re-test

The live site is re-crawled against the inventory: every redirect checked, every page indexed, Search Console watched through the handover weeks.

How editing works after Wix
Can we add the new case study to the homepage and update the team page with two new starters?
Done. Both changes are live, and the case study is linked from the services page too.

Editing, after Wix

Change the site by asking.

You describe the change and we ship it, usually the same day. No admin panel to learn, no update that takes the site down on a Friday, no waiting for a developer to be found.

Honest caveat: if hands-on, drag-and-drop editing is essential for your team, we’ll tell you on the call and recommend Duda instead. We build on both lanes daily and recommend on fit.

The honest comparison

Wix vs plain code, plainly.

WixPlain code on Claude Code
OwnershipEverything lives inside Wix and there is no full export - leave, and you start againPlain code in a repository in your name, hosted wherever you choose
SpeedThe editor ships heavy markup and scripts you can't remove, and apps add more on topNo runtime bloat to fight; built to Core Web Vitals thresholds and held there
SecurityHandled by the platform, along with everything else you don't controlNo platform to depend on. Static-first pages with a minimal, monitored footprint
MaintenanceLight day to day, but apps change, prices rise and the platform sets your roadmapNothing to update. Changes are made to the code deliberately, when you ask
EditingDrag-and-drop anywhere, with the layout drift that comes with itDescribe the change, it ships same day. Structured content keeps edits safe
Cost over timePlan plus apps, renewing monthly and creeping upward year on yearHosting measured in pounds, no plan, no apps

Where Wix genuinely fits, we’ll say so on the first call. The migration makes sense when ownership, speed and the end of maintenance matter more.

Asked before every migration.

Not when it's planned. We map every URL, redirect old to new and preserve titles, metadata and structured data, so rankings carry over rather than reset.
