What worries owners about website migration, and what we do
A move goes wrong in quiet ways: a missing redirect, a dead form, a vanished page. Here are the fears we plan around, and the work that answers each.
- 01
“I'm terrified we'll disappear from Google the week the new site goes live.”
WHAT WE DOWe crawl the old site to list every address, map each one to its new home, set permanent redirects, carry over titles and descriptions, and watch Search Console for errors after launch.WHAT CHANGESSearch visitors and bookmarked links land on the right page instead of an error. - 02
“I don't trust that every page, image and blog post will make it across.”
WHAT WE DOWe export content with scripts or the platform's tools, rebuild templates on the new CMS, import in batches, and compare old and new pages side by side, with a checklist covering images, files and forms.WHAT CHANGESYou get a signed-off checklist, so you know what moved and what was retired on purpose. - 03
“We can't afford the site or the online shop being down on a busy day.”
WHAT WE DOWe build and test the new site on a private staging copy, freeze content changes briefly, choose a quiet moment to repoint the domain, and keep the old site intact as a fallback until the new one is confirmed.WHAT CHANGESThe switch happens on your schedule, and there is a clear way back if something looks wrong. - 04
“Last time we moved, the contact form quietly stopped sending enquiries.”
WHAT WE DOWe list every form, tracking tag, email link and connected tool before the move, rebuild each on the new platform, send test submissions end to end, and confirm analytics are recording again after launch.WHAT CHANGESEnquiries keep arriving, and your reports keep a continuous record.
Changing platforms should not change how people find you.
Businesses switch platforms for good reasons: a site that has grown slow, a CMS the team finds hard to use, hosting that costs too much, or a developer who has moved on. The risk lies in what travels with the move. Every page address that Google, customers and other websites already know is an asset, and a careless switch turns many of them into dead ends.
Our migration work treats the move as a project with a plan. We inventory the old site, map each address to its new home, rebuild templates, import content and test on a private copy before the public ever sees it. For a seasonal business in the valley, we can schedule the switch away from the busy weeks.
- The current CMS no longer fits your team
- Hosting or licence costs keep climbing
- Nobody can fix the site if it breaks
Benefits of a planned website migration
How things look once the marketing is done right.
- 01
Search value carried over
Redirects, preserved titles and a post-launch check help the search visibility you have built carry over to the new platform.
- 02
Nothing forgotten
An inventory of pages, files, forms and integrations is written before anything moves, so surprises show up on paper rather than on launch day.
- 03
A calm launch day
Rehearsing the move on a copy and keeping the old site as a fallback means the switch is a routine step, not a gamble.
- 04
A platform that fits
Moving gives you the chance to leave behind limits, fees or maintenance burdens, and to land on a CMS your team finds easier to run.

Each review is quoted as the client wrote it. Results depend on your market, your budget and where you start.
It depends on how much content and how many integrations you have, so there is no honest one-size answer. A small brochure site moves much faster than a large store with a long product list and years of orders. Planning, content mapping and testing take more time than the final switch, which itself is brief. The proposal sets a dated schedule, and the biggest variable is how quickly approvals come back.
It can if redirects and page structure are ignored, so we plan them first and aim to keep your search visibility steady. We crawl the old site, map every address to its new location with permanent redirects, keep titles, headings and descriptions, and check Search Console after launch. A short dip can still happen while search engines reprocess the new site, and we tell you what to expect.
Projects start from $1,000 and hourly work is $50 to $99, and the quote reflects how much content, how many custom features and how complicated the old structure is. Moving a simple site is far smaller than moving a store with customer accounts and order history. Before we quote, a free marketing audit and a content inventory show what really needs to travel.
Yes, we can move a site from most platforms to WordPress, Shopify, Webflow or a headless CMS, once we have checked what can be exported. Some builders let you export content cleanly; others need us to copy pages by hand or with scripts, which affects the quote. We tell you early what will transfer, what must be rebuilt and what is better left behind.
