How To Change Your Wix Domain Name

Important: Before you can connect a domain, your Wix site must be upgraded to a Premium Plan.

There are three ways how you can point your domain registered with us to your website created with Wix - you can do it with the help of nameservers, using an IP address or our Wix DNS template.

PLEASE NOTE: By default, Wix recommends choosing nameservers setup.
