How to get Wix pages indexed on Google (2026 guide)
Modern Wix is genuinely SEO-capable — it generates sitemaps and lets you control meta tags — but it won't proactively tell Google about new pages, and a few settings can silently block indexing. Get Wix pages indexed by verifying Search Console, checking each page isn't hidden from search, submitting your sitemap, and pushing new URLs through the Indexing API.
Wix used to deserve its reputation as SEO-hostile. Modern Wix is genuinely capable — it generates sitemaps, lets you control meta tags, and renders content crawlers can read. But like every site builder, it won't proactively tell Google about new pages, and a few Wix-specific settings can quietly block indexing.
Turn on and check the essentials
- Make sure your site is published and connected to a custom domain — not just a preview or a free wixsite.com URL.
- In the Wix SEO settings, confirm "Let search engines index this site" is enabled (it can be off during development).
- Connect Wix to Google Search Console via the built-in SEO tools, then submit your sitemap (yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml).
- Set unique SEO titles and descriptions per page using Wix's SEO panel.
Wix-specific things that block indexing
- Per-page index toggles: Wix lets you set individual pages to noindex — check that important pages aren't switched off.
- Hidden pages and pages not in the menu can become orphans with no internal links pointing to them.
- Wix Stores product and collection pages sometimes need their own SEO attention; don't assume the defaults are optimal.
- Heavy animations and large media can drag Core Web Vitals; Wix sites are prone to slow LCP if media isn't optimized.
Wix's sitemap updates when you publish, but Google still crawls on its own clock. Push new or updated Wix page URLs through the Indexing API to get them crawled quickly — especially for time-sensitive pages like event or promotion pages.
Verify it worked
Run a status check on each new page after a day. If a page is stuck on "Discovered — not indexed," make sure it's linked from your navigation or another indexed page, then re-push. If it's "Excluded by noindex," check that per-page Wix toggle.

Why aren't my Wix pages showing up on Google?
The usual causes: the page's SEO setting “Show this page in search results” is off, the page is set to noindex, the site is brand new and not yet crawled, or Google simply hasn't discovered the URL. Verify Search Console, turn search visibility on per page, submit your sitemap, then push the URL through the Indexing API.
Does Wix automatically submit my pages to Google?
No. Wix generates a sitemap at /sitemap.xml and you can connect Google Search Console from the Wix SEO dashboard, but Wix does not proactively notify Google when you add or update a page — that's the gap IndexerNow fills.
Where is my Wix sitemap?
Wix auto-generates it at https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml. Submit that URL in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, and point IndexerNow at it to push individual URLs.
How do I make a hidden Wix page indexable?
In the Wix editor open the page's SEO (Basics) panel and enable “Show this page in search results,” make sure it isn't set to noindex, then republish. Once it's crawlable, submit it through the Indexing API to speed up indexing.
Can free Wix sites be indexed by Google?
Free Wix sites use a wixsite.com subdomain and can be indexed, but a connected custom domain ranks and indexes far more reliably. Either way, verify Search Console and submit your URLs.
