When i test some of my sites in google it says speed not available. that means it too slow for testing or something else?

Can I ask are you using Wix by any chance? mine's also very slow on the load time, don't quote me on it but more Wordpress sites load super quick compared to Wix ones from what I've checked.

Actually wonderpunter, I think you are incorrect. I believe that the OP is referring to Google's Page Speed Insights. And if so, he's seeing a screen like this:




Now, as you can see, the page in question is green on both mobile and desktop (95/100 rating on both actually). However, the speed is listed as unavailable.

This is not because the site is too slow for testing. I believe it is because there isn't enough data for their reporting process.

I am not sure what the threshold is for reporting data, but you can put in some of your more popular pages and get this result. However, if you put in less popular pages, you are unlikely (very unlikely in my experience) to get any result under speed.

If you look closely in the screenshot or on the web page results itself, there is a hyperlink for "unavailable" which, if you click it, tells you:

Why am I not seeing any speed data for a URL?
PSI uses data from the Chrome User Experience Report, which provides speed data for popular URLs that are known by Google's web crawlers. If the speed data for the queried URL is not available in the CrUX dataset, we recommend using Lighthouse to run a synthetic performance audit to estimate page speed, and investigate page optimization recommendations provided by PSI and Lighthouse.

Now, the part worth noting is in the first sentence: "Which provides speed data for popular URLs"

I believe the popular ULRs part backs up my theory rather nicely.

Wix is garbage. Stop developing on it NOW and save yourself a lot of regret down the line. WIX is not very scalable, nor is it transferable to other website CMS. You are stuck on a ****** platform... forever!

I made the same recommendation to this affiliate. Sadly, you can lead a horse to water, but can't force it to drink
Maybe with other peers providing the same feedback, Richard will see the light!

I know Dave, I'm just so deep down the rabbit hole with it now (133 pages deep to be precise)
Looks like I'm gonna have to migrate.
Which do you recommend?

Agree with wonderpunter, use Wordpress.
With regard to all 133 pages... While there's no way to transfer from Wix to WP, you could copy ALL the text and promo stuff, from each page.

The things is, as others have commented, the longer you use Wix, you'll still be in the situation you are now. Slow load times, and poor SEO. In addition to not having access to, or being able to save your database. Far better to just bite-the-bullet, and make the change now.

I can assure you Wix is not your answer to being a successful casino/gambling affiliate

Wix is fine for some stuff, but not affiliate marketing!


Edit:

I'd also recommend that you get a decent shared hosting account. Don't go with cheap, oversold shared-hosting. I can highly recommend https://www.siteground.com/wordpress-hosting.htm, (although I have a VPS), I've use them for a single site before, and they are excellent.

Ok Sold!! I'm gonna migrate over but wow this is complex lol as much as Wix is hated, it's easy to see the appeal

[Former Member 14]

It's not that it's "hated" per se. Instead, Wix is somewhat misleading, and certainly not in the least bit suitable, for a % of website uses.
If one had a bakery, and only wanted a site for a web presence, then Wix would probably be fine

[luckyga]

Have to agree with the others on here, Wix is terrible for so many reasons, if you are looking at a basic web presence that can be referred to then it does plug the gap, however it is certainly not for suited for affiliate marketing, best make the change now or you will only dig yourself a deeper hole.

just gone premium Wordpress business plan... replicating my Wix page is VERY tricky, I think once I find the best template and do one or 2 pages, I'll get the hang of it.
@AussieDave, you led the horse to the water... he's now drinking... slowly and painfully :P

you need to do the standalone wordpress it's free... just pay for the hosting, these shortcuts will end up in frustration ultimately
