How Do I Autoplay Music in Wix?

Last updated on January 9, 2023 @ 12:18 pm

There are a few different ways that you can autoplay music on your Wix website. One way is to use the HTML5 <audio> tag.

This tag allows you to embed audio files directly into your HTML code. You can then use the autoplay attribute to automatically play the audio file when the page loads.

Another way to autoplay music in Wix is to use an audio player widget. There are a number of different widgets available, but we recommend using the Music Player widget from Wix Music.

This widget allows you to upload your own music files and play them back on your website. You can also set it to autoplay when the page loads.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to autoplay music on your Wix website, be aware that there are potential risks associated with doing so. One risk is that your website could be flagged as spam by search engines, which could result in your website being penalized or removed from search engine results entirely. Another risk is that visitors to your website could find the autoplay music annoying or disruptive, which could lead to them leaving your site without taking any desired action.

Finally, you can also use a third-party audio player like SoundCloud or Spotify. These players allow you to stream music from their servers and embed the player onto your Wix site. You can then set the player to autoplay when the page loads.

Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages. The HTML5 <audio> tag is the most basic method and will work in all browsers, but it doesn’t offer any features beyond playing the audio file.

The audio player widgets are more user-friendly and offer features like volume control and playlist management, but they may not work in all browsers. Third-party audio players like SoundCloud and Spotify are feature-rich but may require users to create an account before they can listen to the music.
