Hi aeginastudio,
You can set up your new WordPress.com site and then have your domain, eventsbyaeginastudio.com, mapped to it.
Mapping usually only takes a few hours and then your domain will be pointed to your WordPress.com site instead of the wix one.
Here’s the support page “all about domains”
https://en.support.wordpress.com/all-about-domains/
I hope that helps. -
Two things that you should check out and keep in mind:
1. Make sure that if you have set up a site on WordPress.com that the old content on the Wix site is deleted before you do any domain mapping. Otherwise, the old content will also get transferred along with the name.
2. You may have to keep the domain registered through Wix and therefore pay for your yearly domain name renewal through them. WordPress.com only renews domains that are originally registered here.
The support documents that I gave you the link to will explain it all. -
So us i unterstand i can make the site and bring all the menu to wordpress and when the mounth ends and expire the host in wix i can by the name in the wordpress.
For the site that i have already in wordpress i will still have it because is for the part of the interior design and the other it will be for social events .When i make the secont site can i conect them or i will put a link to the old one so the visitors can visit the other?
