Connecting a domain

Purchasing a Domain vs. Purchasing a Site Plan

Site plans and domains are two of the premium subscriptions available from Wix. A Premium or Studio site plan allows you access to Wix's premium features. A domain provides your site with a personalized address to help people find you online.

Domains and site plans are two different subscription services

Domains: A domain is a unique, virtual address for your site (e.g., www.mystunningwebsite.com). In order to connect your own domain, you first need to purchase one, either from Wix or from another domain host. Learn more about buying a domain.
Premium or Studio site plan: A site plan is an upgrade for a Wix site. Purchasing a Premium or Studio plan allows you to connect your own domain (either purchased from Wix or from another domain host), remove the Wix ads, and much more.
