WIX? is it any good for SEO

[Giorgio68]

Thanks for your reply.

I have problems with Google Analytics not working properly. Maybe we can setup a mutually convenient time to talk me through what I maybe doing wrong?

I will write though, having a URL such as http://www.bellagiolimousines.com.au/#!weddings/c23du is not conducive to assisting the rankings nor our customers.

Can it be edited without the special characters?

In regards to the 301 redirects; when is it anticipated that a fix will be available, and how far away is the new blog solution?

[WixSeoTeam]

Blog - already in production but it is still tested with small amount of users

Hashbang in urls (#!) - this sign has no problem with ranking. This is the agreed sign for search engine that the site is based on Ajax technology.

301 redirect - no time estimation for now. This feature is relevant only for users who transfer existing site to Wix.

Google Analytics - send us a private message with more details and we will continue from there.

Will a backlink from my wix page to one of my sites be a useful link seo-wise?

[WixSeoTeam]

David,

A backlink from a Wix site is no different from any other backlink.

Please note that links from free wix sites are set as rel="nofollow". All the links from premium sites are set as follow

All WIX people says they are champ and they says SEO for them work better than anyother.

But actually WIX is not so compability with SEO terms. As SEO grow much day by which need all customize code in page is not supported by WIX.

Many codes are call from cloud server which again sense of disaster.

Wix can be best for small website with less competitive keyword but won't recommended for high competitive keyword focus website.

Think again about WIX and than only go for it.

kiranseo1,

From our extensive tests it seems like SE are reading all content and index it properly.

Can you share with us the issues you found on Wix with more details?

Thanks.

You really have to hand it to Wix SEO team for being all over this thread. I recently joined Wix just because I saw they were onto questions in here. If you're still there guys, I have another question >  can you please look into fixing the Google + share button on blog posts? It can't seem to pull up a thumbnail of from the post rob towner

Hi Rob,

Thanks for pointing out a problem. We forward your request to the relevant teams at Wix and they will try to take care of it as soon as possible.

Best.

It seems that Wix can't fix this problem and others:

Optimal Use of Keywords in H1 Tags

Although using targeted keywords in H1 tags on your page does not directly correlate to high rankings, it does appear to provide some slight value. It's also considered a best practice for accessibility and helps potential visitors determine your page's content, so we recommend it. Over-using keywords, however, can be perceived as keyword stuffing (a form of search engine spam) and can negatively impact rankings, so use keywords in H1 tags 2 or fewer times. To adhere to best practices in Google News and Bing News, headlines should contain the relevant keyword target and be treated with the same importance as title tags.

This is important for SEO and Content Management, I'll love to see Wix answer because I found this problem in your page and many others.

Bye.

I've been following this question for a while now, and still - when compared to other options - would not recommend Wix... HOWEVER, that said, I came across a site the other day where the site own made mention on Facebook that 'they' had a Wix site and it was ranking well. So I went looking....

The name of their business is "Crayon Rocks", and yes, when searching for the business name you find them easily (it's the <cite class="_Rm">crayonrocks.com.au</cite> site that I'm talking about). But what about something more generic....?

So I searched 'just' Crayons. And yep, there they are - still one page 1 for my search (I'm also in Australia). Position #7.

And it's a Wix site.

Here's the thing folks; whether or not you use Wix or Wordpress or Majento or Business Catalyst - or whatever - the most important thing is your competitive keyword metrics and keyword choice, NOT the CMS of choice.

The type of content you prepare for your customers and the overall UX are far more important then H1's and H2's and whatever technical code you want to add to the conversation. Yes - the technical IS important, VERY important... but if the quality of your content in relation to the needs of your target market sucks, then it doesn't mater how damn good your site is technically, it ain't gonna help -

But... can we conclude summarily that Wix site's don't rank? No. I've seen a few now that do. But for people who don't have the money to develop a site on a (in my opinion only) a better platform, then Wix is a good starter solution.

[WixSeoTeam]

trimse,

The text editor allows full control on heading tags. It is up to you how many H1 tags will be on each page and what will be the text. You can check out this support page for more details https://www.wix.com/support/html5/article/adding-a-heading-tag

Let us know if this doesn't solve the issue.

I have been using WIX for my website www.siimajackets.com.

Some of my keywords are currently ranking in top 5 in UK. I am an SEO my self.

You will eventually rank but it will take time just like with any other platform.

When i did the website i didnt know much about SEO. Now i know but i am still with wix since i invested a lot on their platform. I can't say i am dissappointed. The website is good. Speed is very good both on mobile and desktop. Rankings are getting higher.

There are so many things to consider in order for your page to rank high. The platform is one of them but it will not restrict you from ranking in page one of google.

Let me know if you need any help.
