How Do You Fit a Background Image in Wix?

Last updated on January 5, 2023 @ 1:18 pm

Whether you’re a Wix user or not, you’ve probably seen a Wix site before. They’re characterized by their use of background images. The images are large, often filling the entire screen, and they usually have some text overlaid on top.

If you’re a Wix user, you may be wondering how to add a background image to your own site. It’s actually quite easy. In this article, we’ll show you how to do it.

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.

First, log in to your Wix account and go to the editor. Then, click on the “Add” button and select “Image.”

Next, select the image you want to use as your background. You can either upload an image from your computer or choose one from Wix’s library of free stock photos.

Once you’ve selected an image, click on the “Settings” button and make sure that the “Fit to Page” option is selected. This will ensure that your background image is properly sized for different screen sizes.

Now that your background image is all set up, you can add some text on top of it. To do this, click on the “Text” button and then select the “Heading 1” option.

Enter your heading text and then format it however you want using the options in the toolbar. You can make it bold, italicized, or underlined. You can also change the color or size of the text.

When you’re happy with your heading, click on the “Done” button. Your heading will now appear on top of your background image!

That’s all there is to it! Adding a background image to your Wix site is a great way to make it stand out from other sites.

PRO TIP: If you are using the Wix platform to create a website, be aware that you may have difficulty fitting a background image onto your page. While Wix does offer a background image feature, it may not work perfectly with all images. In some cases, the image may be too large or too small for the page, or it may not align correctly. If you are having trouble fitting a background image onto your Wix page, consider using a different image or cropping the image to fit the page better.
