What Are Anchor Links?

Before we dive into the "how-to" part, let's clarify what anchor links are. Anchor links, also known as jump links or page links, are clickable links that take users to specific sections of a webpage. Instead of scrolling endlessly, visitors can click on an anchor link to jump directly to the content they're interested in.


Why Use Anchor Links in Your Wix Website?

Anchor links offer several benefits for your Wix website:

Improved User Experience

Visitors can navigate your long web pages with ease, enhancing their experience.

Faster Access

Users can access the information they want without scrolling, saving time.

Enhanced SEO

Well-structured pages with anchor links can have better SEO rankings, as search engines appreciate organized content.

Better Content Organization

Anchor links allow you to organize your content logically, making it more reader-friendly.


Now that you understand the advantages, let's get started on creating anchor links in your Wix website.


Step 1: Plan Your Anchor Points

Before you start creating anchor links, it's essential to plan where you want them. Identify the sections or content on your page that you'd like to link to. These will be your anchor points.

Step 2: Add Anchor Elements

In Wix, it's easy to add anchor elements. Here's how:

  • Click on the section of your page where you want to create an anchor link.

  • In the top menu, click on the "Add" button.

  • Choose "More" and then select "Anchor."

Step 3: Name Your Anchor

Give your anchor a clear and descriptive name. This name will be used in your links, so make it meaningful. For example, if it's an anchor for your "Contact Us" section, you could name it "contact."

Step 4: Create the Link

Now, it's time to create the link that will take visitors to your anchor point. Here's how:

  • Highlight the text or element that you want to turn into a link.

  • Click on the link icon in the text editor.

  • Select "Anchor" and choose the anchor you created earlier.

  • Save your changes.

Step 5: Test Your Anchor Links

Always test your anchor links to make sure they work as expected. Preview your site and click on the links to see if they smoothly scroll to the desired sections.


That's it! You've successfully added anchor links to your Wix website. These links can significantly improve the user experience and help you organize your content better. Use them wisely to make your website more engaging and user-friendly.
