Website Migration

Migrating a live website is a systems task, not just copying files. Whether moving from a custom stack to WordPress, changing hosting providers, or upgrading servers, the migration is executed with zero downtime, verified data integrity, and SEO preserved throughout. Every URL, redirect, and record is mapped before DNS is touched.

What we deliver

  • Zero-downtime transfers with staged cutover and rollback plan
  • Full SEO and URL redirection maps to preserve rankings
  • Database integrity checks, media and content verification
  • Custom stack to WordPress re-platforming

Tooling follows the source and target stacks. A WordPress target, a Node.js target, and a static headless target each have a different migration path — the plan is written to that reality, not a one-size script.

Process

  1. 01

    Discover

    Goals, users, constraints, and what “done” means for the business.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Scope, stack, timeline, and the order of work — written down before build starts.

  3. 03

    Design

    Interface, structure, and the path a visitor or user actually takes.

  4. 04

    Develop

    Build, integrate, and review against the scope. No surprise rewrite at the end.

  5. 05

    Launch

    Deployment, analytics, Search Console, and a checklist for going live.

  6. 06

    Grow

    Search, local presence, campaigns, and maintenance after the launch week.

Deliverables

  • Migration plan with downtime and risk assessment
  • Staging environment and verified content parity
  • 301 redirect map and SEO checklist
  • DNS cutover and SSL provisioning
  • Post-launch verification report

Timeline

A straightforward host-to-host move can be days; a stack re-platform or large catalog migration is estimated after a content and infrastructure audit.

FAQ

Will my site go down during migration?

No. Migrations run on staging first and cut over via DNS with verification and a rollback plan. Visitors see no downtime.

Will I lose SEO rankings?

Rankings are protected via complete URL mapping, 301 redirects, sitemap and Search Console updates, and post-launch monitoring. A ranking guarantee is never offered.
