Wix SEO Setup Assistant: using AI-powered recommendations at launch

The Wix SEO Setup Assistant generates a personalised checklist of priority SEO tasks based on your business type, target location and site structure. Used correctly at launch, it eliminates the most common initial configuration errors and gives you a clear, prioritised action plan from day one.

Accessing the Wix SEO Setup Assistant

Access the Setup Assistant from your Wix Dashboard by navigating to Marketing & SEO > Get Found on Google. The assistant asks you a series of questions about your business type, main keyword focus and location before generating your personalised checklist. Spend time on these answers — the quality of your inputs directly affects the quality of the recommendations.

How the AI Tailors Recommendations

• Business type determines schema recommendations (LocalBusiness, Organization, Service, etc.)
• Location inputs drive local SEO task prioritisation
• Page count affects the crawlability and sitemap tasks surfaced
• Industry category influences specific keyword and content suggestions
• Connected tools (GSC, Analytics) determine verification tasks shown

Priority Order: What to Complete First

Recommended implementation sequence

• Domain connection and HTTPS verification (always first)
• Google Search Console connection and sitemap submission
• Google Analytics 4 connection
• Title tag and meta description completion for all main pages
• Business schema markup installation
• Image alt text completion across the site
• Blog and content-specific setup tasks (if applicable)

Tracking Setup Assistant Progress

The Setup Assistant tracks completed tasks and shows a percentage completion score. Aim for 100% on technical tasks before moving to content creation. Return to the assistant monthly — Wix updates the recommendations as your site grows and as new SEO features are released.
