PRO TIP: If you are considering using a purchased domain with Wix, be aware that there are some potential risks. Wix is a website builder and hosting service, and while it is possible to use a purchased domain with Wix, there are some potential risks involved. First, it is important to make sure that the domain you purchase is compatible with Wix. If the domain is not compatible, you may not be able to use it with Wix, or you may experience problems. Secondly, when using a purchased domain with Wix, you will need to configure the DNS settings for the domain. This can be complex and may require the assistance of a technical support person. Finally, be aware that if you ever want to move your website away from Wix, you may have difficulty transferring your purchased domain to another provider.
However, it’s important to note that if you’re using a domains.com, Hover.com, or any other registrar’s free DNS service, you won’t be able to connect your domain to Wix. This is because those providers don’t allow custom DNS records (which are required for connecting a domain to Wix). If you’re using one of those providers and want to use your own domain with Wix, you’ll need to switch to a paid DNS service.
Conclusion: You can use a purchased domain with Wix, as long as the registrar allows custom DNS records. If they don’t, you’ll need to switch to a paid DNS service in order to connect your domain to your Wix account.
