Will feeding a blog through a widget onto a wix site help rankings?

[Quill_Quotient]

I have a client I am writing blog content for, however his site was recently redesigned on wix html5. They offer no native blog. I have used a widget to embed blog from another site, however does this help seo in any way? When people share on social media, etc., it is linking the embedded page, not the clients site, right? So it would not be giving any link juice to site. It also doesn't help for organic search of content if it is embedded, is that right?

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to overcome this issue. Would creating a "faux" blog on the Wix site work  (as in multiple pages that I would then categorize and link to each other to navigate like a blog myself)? Wix looks like it has page length maximums too, so I'm not sure how I would get around that. It is also clunky to share on social media without a "share" button for viewer, but perhaps I am mistaken.

Is that a ridiculous solution? What have other people done to deal with this issue and get better rankings with Wix platform?

Thanks in advance for any input! I'm feeling a little frustrated with what to do.

Why would you stick with the platform?

You seem to already clearly understand it is not future proof for your client. Cut bait now and move to a better platform that will give you all the SEO advantages. IMHO that would be Wordpress.

Best,
