Why Can’ti Find My Wix Website?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:05 am

As someone who has used Wix for a while, I know that it can be frustrating when you can’t find your Wix website. There are a few possible reasons for this:

1) You didn’t publish your site: When you create a new site on Wix, it is only saved on their servers. In order to make it live and viewable by others, you need to publish it. This is a simple process that just requires you to click the “Publish” button on the top bar.

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.

2) You didn’t connect your domain: If you want to use your own domain (like www.example.com), you need to connect it to Wix. This is a paid feature, but it’s worth it if you want people to be able to find your site easily. To do this, go to the “Domains” tab and follow the instructions.

3) Your site is not searchable: By default, Wix sites are not indexed by search engines like Google and Bing. This means that people will not be able to find your site unless you share the direct link with them. If you want your site to be searchable, you need to upgrade to a premium plan and enable SEO features.

4) You’re using an unsupported browser: Wix supports the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. If you’re using an older browser or one that is not listed here, some features of your site may not work properly. To fix this, simply update your browser or switch to a supported one.

5) You cleared your browser’s cache: When you make changes to your Wix site, they are not automatically reflected in your browser. This is because browsers save certain files (called “cache”) locally in order to load websites faster.

To see the latest version of your site, you need to clear your browser’s cache. This can be done by going into the settings/preferences and finding the option to clear the cache.

PRO TIP: If you are having difficulty finding your Wix website, it is likely because you have not published it yet. In order to make your site visible to the public, you will need to publish it from your Wix account. Once you have published your site, it should be accessible from any web browser. If you are still having difficulty finding your site, please contact Wix customer support for further assistance.
