Hi there,
That is not an issue – what you could do is create a site with a free WordPress.com blog address. You are assigned a
.wordpress.comor a.home.blogsubdomain whenever you create a site with WordPress.com, so you can just use that as the domain as you build the site and determine whether or not this is the platform you want to use. You should not have to take down your Wix site during this process. Once you are done developing the site, you can make the decision to transfer the domain over:https://en.support.wordpress.com/incoming-domain-transfer/
map and existing domain:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/
Or even creating a new one:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/register-domain/
Hope this helps. Thanks!

Hi there sorry about the spammer reply.
If you have a custom domain and want to use it here on your WPcom website, your Wix site would go down if you transferred or mapped your domain here.
All new WPcom sites are Private by default and you can set up and customize your WPcom site and keep it that way until you are ready to go live and use your custom domain.
WPcom has a Portfolio feature that is available to everyone and you can learn more about that here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/portfolios/ However if you want to use plugins on a WPcom site you would need to upgrade to the Business plan. More about our plans here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/
Come back to us here if you have other questions about this.
