What Happens When You Unpublish Wix Site?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:58 am

There are a number of reasons why you might want to unpublish your Wix site. Maybe you’re not ready for the world to see it just yet, or maybe you’re making some changes that you don’t want live until they’re finished. Whatever the reason, unpublishing your site is easy to do and only takes a few seconds.

When you unpublish your Wix site, it will no longer be visible to anyone on the internet. Your domain will still be active, but anyone who tries to visit your site will see a ‘Site Not Found’ error message. All of your content will still be safe and sound, and you can republish your site at any time with just a few clicks.

PRO TIP: When you unpublish your Wix site, it will no longer be visible to the public. Your site will be taken offline and you will need to republish it if you want it to be live again.

So, what happens when you unpublish a Wix site? Essentially, it just becomes hidden from view until you’re ready to make it live again.

Your content is still there and can be edited at any time, so there’s no need to worry about losing anything. If you need to take your site down for a little while, unpublishing is the way to go.
