Why Use Neon Text in Wix Studio?

Your website is the first impression visitors get of your business. With so many competitors online, you need something that grabs attention fast. That’s where neon text comes in:

• Eye-catching headlines – Draw attention to your hero section or product launch.

• Modern web design trend – Neon, glassmorphism, and bold effects are dominating web design right now.

• Boost engagement – Unique visuals keep visitors scrolling longer and clicking more.

At Wix Ideas, we’ve tested dozens of design enhancements across Wix and Wix Studio, and glowing text is one of the easiest to implement with the biggest payoff.

Step 1: Add a Text Element in Wix Studio

Open your Wix Studio editor and add a text element to your page. This could be a headline, a call-to-action, or even a product name.

Assign a custom class to the text. For example:

.neonText

Step 2: Add the CSS

Now, switch on Dev Mode in Wix Studio and open your CSS panel. Paste the following code:

.neonText {
  font-weight: 900;
  font-size: clamp(2rem, 6vw, 6rem);
  color: #fff;
  text-shadow: 
    0 0 5px #00d4ff,
    0 0 10px #00d4ff,
    0 0 20px #00d4ff,
    0 0 40px #00d4ff,
    0 0 80px #00d4ff;
  animation: glow 1s infinite alternate;
}

@keyframes glow {
  0% {
    text-shadow: 
      0 0 5px #00d4ff,
      0 0 10px #00d4ff,
      0 0 20px #00d4ff,
      0 0 40px #00d4ff,
      0 0 80px #00d4ff;
  }
  100% {
    text-shadow: 
      0 0 10px #00d4ff,
      0 0 20px #00d4ff,
      0 0 40px #00d4ff,
      0 0 80px #00d4ff,
      0 0 160px #00d4ff;
  }
}

👉 You can swap out #00d4ff for any color you like—hot pink, neon green, or even brand-specific colors.

Step 3: Preview and Optimize

• Neon text looks best on dark backgrounds.

• Keep it for important text only so it doesn’t overwhelm your design.

• Thanks to clamp(), your neon text will automatically resize across devices for mobile optimization.
