  Hi there,

  You can transfer the content, i.e. the posts, from your Wix website to a WordPress.com site:

  Import from Wix

  But it is not possible to transfer any aspect of the site, like the design, as Wix and WordPress are two completely different systems, and they are not compatible with one another. This is true whether you transfer to WordPress.com or to a self-hosted WordPress installation.

  Hi there,

  I’m not familiar with that service but it looks like it can migrate your Wix site to a self-hosted WordPress site. Then you’ll have to migrate that WordPress site to WordPress.com. Still, the design of the site won’t be transferred but you could more easily replicate it.

  Just a note that WordPress.com and WordPress.org are different things and you can read more about them here:
