Wix puts all its SEO tools under one roof. Think of this dashboard as mission control for your site’s visibility.

SEO Setup Checklist: A step-by-step list to verify your domain, submit to search engines, and fine-tune basic settings.
Learning Hub: Curated articles and tutorials to help you master best practices.
Site Performance: Visualise how many clicks and impressions your pages earn over 7, 30 or 90 days.
Tools & Settings: Direct access to your site’s SEO Settings, URL Redirect Manager, Site Inspection, Site Verification, Sitemaps and Robots.txt Editor.

Every tool in this panel works in harmony. Start with the checklist, then dive into settings and performance. As you progress, you’ll spot gaps you can fill with community-tested techniques.

Understanding and Using the SEO Setup Checklist

The SEO Setup Checklist is your launch pad. It breaks down essential tasks into manageable items:

  1. Verify your site with Google Search Console
  2. Connect your domain (Wix-purchased or third party)
  3. Fill in site title and meta description
  4. Submit your sitemap automatically
  5. Check for broken links and mobile friendliness

Follow each item. The checklist tracks your progress. It even auto-verifies with Google if you let Wix handle it. Missed an item? The list highlights incomplete steps so you never lose sight of what’s left. A simple, visual roadmap.

Tracking Clicks and Impressions: Making Sense of Data

Data without context is noise. Wix splits site performance into two metrics:

Clicks: Real visits from Google Search or Google Discover. One visitor, one click—even if they return multiple times.
Impressions: Every time your link appears in results, whether it’s on the All tab or under Images.

Why does it matter? You might see high impressions but low clicks—your title or snippet needs work. Or strong clicks with fewer impressions, which tells you your pages rank well but need more exposure. Use these charts to:

  • Spot trending pages
  • Identify low-performing keywords
  • Measure the impact of recent changes

Pair this with CMO.SO’s AI-driven content suggestions to refine pages that lag behind. Small tweaks to headings or descriptions can boost clicks significantly.

Customising Your Site’s SEO Settings

Once you know what’s happening, it’s time to take control of on-page signals. Under SEO Settings you can:

  • Edit your site’s global title and description
  • Set default image alt text patterns
  • Configure custom page titles, meta descriptions and URL slugs
  • Enable structured data for events, local businesses or products

Pro tip: Keep page titles under 60 characters and meta descriptions under 160 to avoid truncation in search results. Make them readable and compelling. Try inserting primary keywords near the start. For example, if you run a bakery in Bristol, “Artisan Sourdough Loaf | Bristol Bakery” works better than a generic title.

Advanced Techniques: Redirects, Sitemaps and Robots.txt

After on-page work comes the finer control:

URL Redirect Manager: Fix broken links or point old URLs to new pages. Prevent 404 errors and preserve link equity.
Sitemaps: Wix auto-generates your sitemap.xml but you can submit it manually in Search Console too.
Robots.txt Editor: Disallow unwanted crawlers or hide staging pages from bots.

These tools ensure search engines discover your pages in the right order and avoid indexing duplicates or private content. Think of them as traffic lights on your site—guiding crawlers where they should go.
