Where Is DNS on Wix?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 8:44 am

DNS, or Domain Name System, is the system that converts human-readable website names (like www.wix.com) into machine-readable IP addresses (like 216.3.128.12). When you enter a website name into your browser, DNS is what looks up and finds the corresponding IP address for that website.

Every device connected to the Internet has a unique IP address which is a series of numbers. DNS converts easy-to-remember domain names into the numerical IP addresses that computers use to connect to each other.

PRO TIP: If you are looking for DNS on Wix, be warned that it is not an easy task. There is no specific DNS section on Wix, which can make it difficult to find. However, there are a few ways to access DNS on Wix. One way is to use the Wix DNS Manager. Another way is to use the Wix Code Editor.

For example, when you type www.com into your browser, a DNS server translates it into 216.12 and connects you to the Wix website.

DNS is an essential part of how the Internet works, and Wix relies on DNS servers to direct traffic to your Wix site.
