I registered a domain in Wix some years ago and host in their site, kinda regretted because their hosting is very expensive.

Now I have a different plan. I owned another blog in blogger.com. Now I want to make my blogger blog to have the domain name in my Wix site, then change the Wix site domain as a sub domain.

So what I wish to achieve is something like this.

Current Situation:

Wix -> www.myawesomesite.com
Blogger -> myawesomesite.blogger.com

Expected Result:

Blogger -> www.myawesomesite.com
Wix -> sub.myawesomesite.com

I will cancel the subscription plan in Wix. But how do I achieve the above? Do I copy-paste this request to any hosting provider and they will do the work for me? Or I need to follow some steps to do some work before approaching a new hosting provider?

Please provide me some guidance and reference or link to follow. Thanks

You just need to point the A record to new destination IP address only.

There are 2 possible ways:-

1. Point your wix domain to blogger
2. Transfer your wix domain to another registrar such as Namecheap.com

Here's more detailed instruction on how to point your wix domain:

I'm not sure about blogger, if number 1 doesn't work, you might want to transfer your wix domain to another register.
