How Wix Site Search works

The Wix Site Search app is made up of two elements: the search bar and the results page. These two elements are automatically added to your site when you install the app.
The search bar lets your visitors enter the word or phrase that they want to search for. You can customize the parts of your site that are searchable, how many results are displayed, the layout and design of your search bar, and the placeholder text that's displayed in the bar.

The results page displays a list of results that are related to the term your visitor is searching for. The results page is hidden by default, meaning that it isn't displayed on your site menu. Your visitors can only see this page when they search for a term in your search bar.  Learn more about the results page

Wix also automatically adds Sitelinks search box structured data markup to your site's pages when you add the Wix Site Search app to your site. Google uses this markup to add a search box when your pages appear as search results. People can search your site directly using this search box without having to visit your site.  Learn more about structured data markup

You can use this information to improve your site and grow your business.
