help setting up a site and moving domain
-
I am interested in using WordPress and switching from Wix. I just started Wix yesterday so I don’t have much to transfer. Is there a contact person I could speak with?

Hi there,
You can migrate your site from Wix to WordPress.com. Please note… wix themes cannot be imported and hence you have to choose a new wordpress theme. Please see this guide how to transfer your site content:
For instructions on how to transfer your domain away from Wix and to WordPress.com, please visit Wix support page:
https://support.wix.com/en/article/transferring-your-wix-domain-away-from-wix-2477749
Please see this support page for domain transfers:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/
So, if you want your domain hosted at wix and use wordpress, you have an option to map or transfer your domain to wordpress.
https://wordpress.com/support/domain-mapping-vs-domain-transfer/First, whether you map or transfer your existing domain, you will need to purchase a WordPress.com plan.
https://wordpress.com/pricing/If you transfer the domain to WordPress.com, we’ll manage the domain. You’ll pay for the mapping and the plan here (domain is included within the plan price for the first year).

But, if you keep the domain with wix and map the domain to WordPress.com, wix will continue to manage the domain and you’ll have to pay wix for hosting your domain.
