Migrate Wix to Cursor — without losing SEO
Sitejump audits the Wix site, preserves every URL, redirect and meta tag, then packages it for a modern React + Tailwind rebuild in Cursor.
What is a Wix migration?
A Wix migration means rebuilding the site Wix renders — pages, blog, store and dynamic pages — as standard React + Tailwind, without the Wix runtime, its heavy DOM or the premium plan. What is captured is the published page as visitors and crawlers see it, including content that Wix renders client-side. Nothing is deleted on the Wix side until you choose to cancel.
Why do Wix migrations lose SEO?
Wix rendered a lot of content through its own JavaScript runtime, so crawlers indexed URLs that a naive HTML fetch never sees, including dynamic-page routes built from a collection. Wix also manages its own 301 rules and SEO settings per page inside the editor, and none of that travels with an export.
Why teams leave Wix
Wix hosts the site, the DOM, and the editor. Migrating out later is a rewrite — do it once, into standard React you can hand to any developer or AI.
In our experience, Wix's script and CSS overhead limits how far Core Web Vitals can improve. AI-builder rebuilds typically move Lighthouse scores up materially.
Business, Business Elite, Enterprise — every feature is another tier. One-time migration plus flat hosting removes the subscription forever.
Why teams move Wix to Cursor
Cursor is a coding workspace, so the rebuilt Wix site is a repository you own from the first commit — reviewed in pull requests and deployed to the host you already use.
The rebuild happens in Git. Every page arrives as a reviewable change, which suits teams with an existing deployment pipeline.
The Sitejump connector gives Cursor the captured pages, redirects, metadata and assets, so the agent rebuilds from evidence instead of guessing.
Standard React and Tailwind, deployed anywhere: your own servers, a static host, or a managed platform.
Once the Wix site is rebuilt in the selected AI builder, the team can edit pages by describing changes in plain language.
The migration package is prepared for the selected AI builder, v0, Replit, Cursor or Claude, with instructions suited to the selected destination.
No more proprietary templating locking your site to Wix. The rebuild is standard React + Tailwind — any developer or any AI assistant can extend it, and no vendor can hold the codebase hostage.

Honest, one-line takes on the other paths a Wix team usually considers.
| Option | What actually happens |
|---|---|
| Stay on Wix | Keeps monthly bills and the vendor lock-in. Every edit still needs a developer or agency ticket, and the platform gets older, not smarter. |
| Rebuild in Next.js on Vercel | A capable route, but migration discovery, content capture, redirects and evidence still need to be assembled before the rebuild begins. |
| Move to Webflow or Framer | Trades one hosted builder for another. You still don't own the code, and you'll re-platform again the day you need real product surfaces (auth, dashboards, checkout). |
| Migrate with Sitejump | One free audit, one-time payment, SEO preserved, and marketing edits the site with the compatible web builder or coding workspace that fits your delivery flow. |

How the Wix → Cursor move actually works
- 1. Free audit. Paste your Wix URL. We crawl a sample, detect Wix, count pages, and give you a preview report.
- 2. One-time payment. Pay once (tiered by page count). The full audit runs and packages your site into a migration bundle.
- 3. Paste one MCP URL into your AI builder. Lovable, v0, Replit Agent or a compatible coding workspace reads the migration package and rebuilds it in prioritised page batches on your instruction.
Wix migration FAQ
Do I need to touch Wix during the migration?
No. Sitejump crawls your live site the same way search engines do — we only need the public URL. Your Wix install keeps running until you're ready to cut over.
What about SEO? Will rankings drop?
Every URL is preserved or 301-redirected to its new route, and every page's title, description, canonical and OG tags are carried forward. Search Console sees a clean move, not a rebuild.
Is this a subscription?
No. One free audit, then a one-time payment based on your site's page count. Lifetime access to your migration data through your account MCP connector.
How does the rebuild actually happen?
Paste one MCP URL into an AI builder, v0, Replit Agent or a compatible coding workspace. The builder reads the migration package and rebuilds pages on your instruction — you stay in control of design and structure.
Does paying for a migration replace my live website?
No. The current site keeps running as-is. Payment unlocks the migration package and connector for the saved destination. The switch happens only when the rebuilt site is published and the domain is moved.
Which AI builder should I use for a Wix migration?
Choose the selected AI builder, v0 or Replit for a hosted project, or Cursor or Claude for a portable repository deployed to a host you control. Sitejump saves the choice with the migration and adapts the instructions and package.
What would this cost with an agency instead?
A manual Wix rebuild is typically quoted at €1,000–€4,000 — most of that is the copying: pages, redirects, images and language versions carried over by hand. Sitejump automates that part for a one-time fee.
Can non-developers edit the site after migration?
Yes. The selected AI builder can apply plain-language changes after the rebuild. Complex product features and integrations may still need developer review.
