PRO TIP: If you are considering using a GoDaddy domain on Wix, be aware that there are some risks involved. Wix is a website builder and hosting platform, and while it is possible to use a GoDaddy domain on Wix, it is not recommended.

The main reason for this is that GoDaddy is not a web hosting provider, and as such, their domains are not set up to work with Wix. This can lead to problems with your website, including slow loading times, email deliverability issues, and more.

In addition, using a GoDaddy domain on Wix can also result in your website being blacklisted by Google. This is because Google does not allow sites that use third-party domains to be indexed in their search results.

If you still want to use a GoDaddy domain on Wix, be sure to research the risks involved before proceeding. It is also important to note that you will need to use a custom DNS service in order for your website to work properly.

  • ns1.wixdns.net
  • ns2.net

Once you’ve saved the changes, it can take up to 48 hours for the DNS changes to propagate. After that, your domain will work with Wix!
