  Hi there,

  Your website can be imported from Wix to WordPress.com using the Wix Importer.

  To do so, go to My Sites > Import and select Wix from the list.

  Enter the web address of your Wix website and begin the import.

  I hope this helps. Please let us know if have any additional questions around this.

  Hi there,

  You can find detailed information on how to use the Wix importer mentioned above here:

  https://wordpress.com/en/support/import/import-from-wix/

  Note that will only migrate your content (posts, pages, and any media files you’ve added to those). In terms of design, you can select any of the themes appearing under Appearance ->Themes in the dashboard. Your Wix theme isn’t compatible with WordPress, so you won’t be able to bring that over as well.

  To transfer or connect your domain to us as well, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan. In your other thread at https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/huge-question/?view=all#post-3781275 I’ve asked what you have in mind for your site – please reply there and include some details on what type of features you’re looking for, and we can help you figure out which of our plans will be the best fit for you.
