If you have a Wix site, there is a chance your site may not be fully visible to AI bots like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude.
This often happens because many Wix sites rely heavily on JavaScript-rendered content. If important content on your site is loaded through JavaScript, some AI crawlers may struggle to read, understand, and index it properly. As a result, your products, collections, blogs, and key site content may not be fully consumed or cited by large language models.
This can negatively affect your performance across AEO, GEO, SEO, and AI visibility.
Alli AI has developed an AI Visibility Engine that helps solve this problem by prerendering your website and serving an HTML version of your site to AI bots when they crawl it. This makes your content easier for LLM crawlers to access, understand, and cite.
By providing a clean, crawlable HTML version of your Wix site, the AI Visibility Engine can also help speed up the crawling process, allowing AI bots to discover and consume more pages across your site.
To integrate your Wix site with Alli AI’s AI Visibility Engine, we recommend using the Edge integration method. This setup uses Cloudflare or AWS CloudFront service workers to deliver the prerendered HTML version of your site to AI crawlers.
The final step usually involves switching your nameservers to Cloudflare to complete the integration.
Here is an Article on how to complete the AI Visibility Edge Integration:
Once the Cloudflare setup is complete, the nameservers need to be updated.
Updating Nameservers for a Wix Site When the Domain Was Purchased Outside Wix
If your website is built on Wix but your domain was purchased from another provider, such as GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger, or Porkbun, the nameservers must be updated through that domain provider.
Step 1: Add the Domain to Cloudflare
Log in to Cloudflare and add the domain.
Cloudflare will scan your existing DNS records. Before continuing, make sure important records are copied over, including:
Email records
TXT verification records
Existing subdomains
Wix records
Step 2: Add the Wix DNS Records in Cloudflare
In Cloudflare, go to:
DNS → Records
Add or confirm these Wix records:
Type | Name | Value | Proxy Status |
A | @ | 185.230.63.107 | DNS Only |
CNAME | www | pointing.wixdns.net | DNS Only |
For normal Wix connections, keep these records set to DNS Only unless your Edge integration provider gives different instructions.
Step 3: Update Nameservers at the Domain Registrar
Log in to the account where the domain was purchased.
Go to:
Domain Settings → Nameservers
Then:
Choose Custom Nameservers
Remove the current nameservers
Add the two Cloudflare nameservers
Save the changes
Cloudflare will provide the exact nameservers to use.
Step 4: Wait for Propagation
Nameserver changes can take a few hours, but in some cases may take up to 48 hours.
Once complete, test both:
yourdomain.com
Both should load the Wix site.
Step 5: Verify Everything Works
After the switch, check:
Website loads correctly
SSL/HTTPS works
Email still works
Google Search Console or other verification records are still active
Any third-party tools or subdomains still work
Summary
For a Wix site using a domain purchased outside Wix, update the nameservers at the domain registrar, point them to Cloudflare, and manage the Wix DNS records inside Cloudflare.
