Hyperlinking in Wix allows you to create clickable links that direct users to other pages, external websites, or specific sections within your own site.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to hyperlink in Wix:
1. Log in to your Wix Account:
– Enter your Wix account credentials to log in.
– Select the website you want to edit from your dashboard.
2. Enter the Editor:
– Click on the “Edit Site” or “Edit Website” button to enter the Wix Editor.
– This will open the editing interface where you can make changes to your site.
3. Select the Text or Element to Hyperlink:
– Identify the text or element (such as an image or button) that you want to turn into a hyperlink.
– Click on the element to select it and activate the options menu.
4. Access the Link Settings:
– With the text or element selected, an options menu or toolbar should appear.

5. Choose the Link Destination:
– In the link settings, you’ll have various options for choosing the destination of the hyperlink.
– To link to an internal page on your Wix site, select “Page” and choose the desired page from the dropdown menu.

6. Customise Link Behavior (Optional):
– Depending on the destination you chose, you may have additional options to customize the link behavior.
– For internal page links, you can enable smooth scrolling or specify a specific transition animation.
– For external links, you can choose whether to open the link in a new tab or in the same tab.
7. Apply and Test the Hyperlink:
– After specifying the link destination and any customizations, click on the “Apply” or “Save” button.
– The selected text or element should now be turned into a hyperlink.
– Preview your website to ensure the hyperlink functions as expected.
– Test the hyperlink by clicking on it and verifying that it correctly directs to the intended destination.
By following these steps, you can easily create hyperlinks in Wix to connect your website’s content and improve navigation for your visitors.
Please note that the specific options and appearances of the link settings may vary depending on the version of Wix you are using and the type of element you’re working with. Additionally, different Wix templates may have slightly different layouts and options for hyperlinking.
It is also worth noting that while Wix offers a fun platform to play with and easily make your own website on, website’s built on the Wix platform often do not look professional. In our opinion, if you are looking to build a website for a business or to represent a company you might be better considering a more professional option.
