How to make your Wix website load faster

Slow sites lose visitors. These simple changes make most Wix pages faster.

You can make your Wix website load faster with a few simple changes. Start with these.

People leave pages that load slowly, and Google considers speed on mobile. Most Wix speed problems come from the content you add, not from Wix itself.

1. Shrink your images

Large photos are the biggest cause of slow pages. Resize them to the size you need and compress them before uploading.

2. Limit video and animation

Autoplaying background videos and heavy animations slow the first view. Use them sparingly, or not on mobile.

3. Remove apps you do not use

Each app can add code. Delete the ones that are not helping.

4. Keep pages focused

Very long pages with dozens of sections load more content. Split them into separate pages.

5. Choose fewer fonts

Two font styles are enough.

6. Test on a phone

Open the site on mobile data, not only on fast home internet. Use Google’s PageSpeed Insights to see problems and suggestions.

Do not chase a perfect score

A reasonable score with a clear message beats a perfect score on an empty page. Speed optimisation is included in every package we build. See the pricing page.
