Domain Name and SEO
Connecting your own domain name to your site is a great way to improve your site's SEO. Note:To connect a domain to your site, you must upgrade it. If you have already upgraded, you can connect a domain purchased from Wix or connect a domain that was purchased from another domain host.Consider the following before you select a domain name:
Unless your company name is an acronym, avoid using them: For instance, if your company name is Best's Sushi Tokyo, don't abbreviate it to bst.com when BestsSushiTokyo.com is both:
    
Easy to remember for your users. Includes the entire business name, which optimizes it for search engines.   Be wary of using hyphens: Contrary to what you might think, hyphens between keywords in your domain do not make them easier for search engine bots to read. In fact, too many hyphens can damage the credibility of your domain, not to mention make it difficult for your visitors to type.Avoid Copyright Infringement: Sounds obvious enough, but you would be  surprised how often this mistake is made. Check that the domain name you wish to use isn't going to lead you straight to court. Visit the relevant copyright office (for example, copyright.gov in the US) before you register your domain.Add keywords: Your domain name is a great place for a keyword or two, but don't make the domain name too long. If your company name is slightly abstract and doesn't provide an idea about what you do, consider adding one of your keywords i.e. company name is Big Corp, the domain name could be BigCorpBuilders.com.Tip:Remember, your domain should appeal not just to your site visitors, but also to search engines. Check out this video about choosing the best domain name on the SEO Learning Hub. Note:Once you choose your domain name, you cannot change it. If you have already made the purchase, the only way to change the domain name is to register a new domain.
Free Wix Sites Intermittently Accessible in Saudi Arabia

Importing or Exporting URL Redirects with a CSV File
A URL (301) redirect updates search engines with a working page URL if the page's URL has changed. Upload a CSV file to import up to 500 URL redirects at a time. You can upload your own CSV file or download the provided template to create a new CSV file for the import. Importing your redirects with a CSV fileImport a CSV file to update several of your site's 301 redirects at once. First, ensure that your CSV file is correctly formatted: the first row should contain column headers, each row should list only one redirect, and the file should include just two columns. The first column lists the old URL, and the second column lists the new URL to redirect to. To make changes to your existing redirects, export the current redirects to a CSV file, edit as needed, and then import the updated file to apply the changes. Note that each file can include a maximum of 500 redirects; any redirects listed beyond this limit will not be imported.To import a file for redirects:
Go to your SEO Dashboard. Select Go to URL Redirect Manager under Tools and settings. Click More Actions at the top and select Import redirects.  Click Upload CSV File.
Tip: Click Download Template if you need a template to create your file.  Select the CSV file you want to import from your computer and click Open.  Select the type of redirect to import:
    
New: When the URL has no prior redirects. Existing: When the URL already has a redirect setup. You can choose to override the existing redirect or not. By default, it will not be overridden. To override, switch the toggle on.   Click Import Redirects
Tip: Alternatively, click Replace File to upload a different CSV file. Then select the file and click Open. Fixing CSV file import errorsIf you get an error when importing your redirects, you can download the CSV report to see the status of each redirect. The report will look like your CSV file, but with additional columns listing the status of each redirect.Download the report to make changes to your original CSV file by re-importing the file to overwrite the original file's content. This can be done to fix issues one-by-one or all at once. Common errors: the file is empty or in the wrong format, a redirect already exists for a URL, or the site is not connected to a domain.Exporting redirectsYou can export a CSV file of your entire list of redirects that have been uploaded to your site. If you need to make any changes to your redirects, you can edit this file, save, then re-upload. To export a list of redirects:
Go to your SEO Dashboard. Select Go to URL Redirect Manager under Tools and settings. (When exporting specific redirects only) Select the redirects you want to export. Click More Actions at the top and select Export redirects.Tip:The file automatically starts downloading to your computer.

Creating a Secure Password and Keeping Your Wix Account Secure
We highly recommend taking any and all actions in order to improve the safety of your Wix account and personal information.In this article, learn more about: 
Creating a secure Wix password Keeping your Wix account secureTips for creating a secure Wix passwordWe recommend the following tips for creating the most secure password for your Wix account:
Choose a password that contains at least 8-12 characters.  Do not include any parts of your name (first and last) in your password, or anything related to your personal info. Make sure to include at least 3 out of the 4 character types:
    
Lowercase letters Uppercase letters  Numbers Symbols   Use a unique password for Wix. Do not use a password that is used for other applications, such as your regular email account. Consider using a password manager and an automatic password generator to create safe and secure passwords. Make your password a passphrase of at least 12 characters. We recommend using an easy-to-remember sentence that includes numbers and special characters. For example, you could use the first 2 letters of each word of a sentence to create an even stronger password.  Use the Wix Password Strength Indicator to measure the safety of your password. The indicator prompts you to create a tough-to-break password that has extra characters and symbols. The colored bar at the top of the indicator updates you on the strength of your password as you create it.Tips for keeping your Wix account secureWe recommend the following tips for keeping your Wix account secure:
Keep your login information private. Share your login information with trusted sources only. Enable 2-Step verification to add an extra layer of security to your account. If multiple people are working on your Wix site, consider adding them as site collaborators, rather than sharing your password. Make sure to lock and password protect your computer. We suggest enabling automatic locking of your computer if it’s unattended for 5 minutes (e.g. lock on screensaver). Sign out of your Wix and email accounts if you are using a shared browser. Do not allow your browser to save your password if you are using a shared browser.  Add a Recovery Phone Number to help you recover your account in the event you have forgotten, or lost access to your email.Next:Learn how to change the password of your Wix account.

Site Performance: Seeing a Flash of Color As Elements Load
As your site loads, it first loads the background color and then loads the background image. This also applies to elements that have background colors, such as strips and slideshows.  In most cases, the background image loads fast enough that you do not see the background color at all.  In some cases, if you are using a slower internet connection or if your background image/video is very large, it might take a second for the background to load and, therefore, you see the background color flash before the image or video loads.Changing the background color of your page, strip or slideshow will stop you seeing a color flash as your page loads. We recommend choosing a background color as similar as possible to the color of your background, strip or slideshow image. Depending on which element has a flash of color, change the background of your:
