# **🗺️ Overview**

OTTO SEO is tied to a single website at a time. If you have moved your site from WordPress to Wix, you will need to disconnect OTTO from the old WordPress property and then activate it on your new Wix site. This article walks you through both steps in the correct order.

# **⚠️ Before You Begin**

- **Complete your Wix site build first.** Make sure your Wix site is live and fully set up before starting the migration.
- **Note your current OTTO settings.** Take a screenshot or record any customisations (tone, focus keywords, activated features) you have applied on the WordPress site. You will need to re-apply these on Wix after migration.
- **OTTO actions are not transferred automatically.** Any on-page changes OTTO deployed to your WordPress site stay on WordPress. They will not carry over to Wix.

# **🛠️ Step 1 — Deactivate OTTO on Your WordPress Site**

1. In the left sidebar, click **OTTO SEO → All Sites (SEO Automation)** (URL: **/seo-automation-v3**).
2. At the top of the page, click the website selector dropdown and choose your **WordPress site**.
3. Locate the **OTTO Status** toggle or the **Deactivate OTTO** button on the dashboard.
4. Click **Deactivate** and confirm when prompted. OTTO will stop managing your WordPress site and your OTTO seat will be freed up.
5. If you added the OTTO tracking snippet manually to WordPress, log in to your WordPress admin, navigate to the plugin or theme where you inserted the code, and **remove the snippet**.

# **🌐 Step 2 — Add Your Wix Site to Search Atlas**

If your Wix site is not already listed as a property in Search Atlas, you need to add it before you can activate OTTO.

1. In the left sidebar, click **Site Metrics** (URL: **/site-explorer/list**).
2. Click **Add New Site** (or the **+** icon) and enter your Wix site URL.
3. Follow the on-screen verification steps to confirm ownership of the domain.
4. Wait for the initial site crawl to complete. This usually takes a few minutes.

# **🚀 Step 3 — Activate OTTO on Your Wix Site**

1. In the left sidebar, click **OTTO SEO → All Sites (SEO Automation)**.
2. Use the website selector dropdown at the top of the page to choose your **Wix site**.
3. Click **Activate OTTO**. Search Atlas will generate the OTTO tracking snippet for your Wix domain.
4. Copy the snippet provided and add it to your Wix site:

   - In your Wix dashboard, go to **Settings → Custom Code**.
   - Click **+ Add Custom Code**, paste the snippet, and set it to load on **All Pages** in the **<head>** section.
   - Click **Apply** and then **Publish** your Wix site to make the code live.
5. Return to Search Atlas, click **Verify Installation**, and confirm the snippet is detected correctly.
6. Re-apply any OTTO settings — such as preferred tone, target keywords, and feature toggles — that you previously used on WordPress.

# **✅ Confirming the Migration Is Complete**

Once OTTO is active on Wix, you should see the OTTO Status indicator turn **green** on the OTTO SEO page for your Wix site. Your WordPress site should show OTTO as **Inactive**. If either status looks incorrect after a few minutes, try refreshing the page.

# **❓ Frequently Asked Questions**

- **Will my OTTO subscription change?** No. OTTO is included with your Search Atlas plan. Moving it between sites does not affect your billing.
- **Can I run OTTO on both sites at the same time?** Only if your plan includes multiple OTTO seats. Check your plan limits in your account settings.
- **My Wix site is not showing in the site selector.** Make sure you completed Step 2 and that the domain is fully verified before trying to activate OTTO.
