Can I Restrict Access to My Wix Website?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:46 am

As the owner of a website, you may want to keep some areas of your site private, while still making other areas public. For example, you may want to create a members-only section where people can sign up to access exclusive content.

Or, you may want to create a private blog that only certain people can read. Whatever your reasons for wanting to restrict access to part of your site, Wix makes it easy to do.

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

There are two ways to restrict access to a Wix website: by password protecting pages or by making your entire site private.

PRO TIP: If you restrict access to your Wix website, only people with the link will be able to view it. This means that your website will not be visible to search engines and anyone who doesn’t have the link.

Password Protecting Pages: To password protect a page on your Wix site, go to that page in the Editor and click on the “Settings” icon (it looks like a little cog). Then, click on the “Password Protect This Page” option and enter a password. Once you’ve done that, anyone who tries to visit that page will be prompted to enter the password before they can view the content.

Making Your Entire Site Private: If you want to make your entire Wix website private, you can do that too. Just go to your site’s settings and click on the “Privacy” tab.

From there, you can choose to make your site completely private or just hide it from search engines. If you choose to make your site private, only people who have the link will be able to see it.

So, if you want to restrict access to part of your Wix website, you can easily do so by password protecting pages or making your entire site private.
