Migration risk check

Question 1 of 3

What are you moving from?

The starting point sets what usually breaks and how careful the redirect map has to be.

The short answer

A WordPress migration service moves your site to a new host, a new domain, or from another CMS without downtime and without losing search rankings. Every URL gets mapped, every redirect is a single clean 301, and every job ships with a written SEO preservation plan. Straight host moves start at $499. CMS migrations start at $1,499. Complex ecommerce starts at $2,999. All fixed quotes, no hourly surprises.

SEO safety, in six locked steps

Ranking loss is the fear owners bring up first. Every migration we run passes through these six checkpoints before it goes live. This is what a migration service should actually mean.

1

Full URL map before we touch anything

We crawl the live site, export every indexed URL, and match it to its final destination on the new stack. Nothing is missed because nothing is guessed.

2

One clean 301 per URL, no chains

Every old URL gets a single permanent redirect to its new address. No 302s, no daisy chains, no redirect loops that quietly bleed rankings.

3

Canonicals, sitemaps, and robots re-checked

Canonical tags, sitemap.xml, robots.txt, and hreflang are re-audited on the destination so Google sees a consistent signal from day one.

4

Search Console + Bing warmed on the new host

We resubmit sitemaps, request indexing on top pages, and monitor coverage for 30 days. If a URL drops, we know before you do.

5

Ranking baseline, then a 30 day comparison

We snapshot your top 100 keywords the day before cutover and compare weekly for a month. Written report, not a promise.

6

No ranking loss guarantee

If organic traffic falls more than 10 percent inside 30 days from causes we control, we roll back or refund. In writing, in the quote.

Migration paths

Which move are you making?

Every source has its own quirks: Shopify export gaps, Wix locked HTML, Squarespace image paths. Pick your starting point.

By source CMS

By source host

How we move it

  1. 1

    Discovery and URL crawl

    We walk your site, list every URL, plugin, integration, and dependency. You get a written scope before anyone touches the site.

  2. 2

    Stage on the new host

    We build the new site privately on the destination host. Visitors keep hitting the live site while we work.

  3. 3

    Fix, test, verify

    Links, forms, email, checkout, and performance are tested on staging. Nothing goes live until it passes.

  4. 4

    SEO safety pass

    Redirect map, canonicals, sitemaps, robots, and Search Console all re-audited on staging before cutover.

  5. 5

    Cutover with rollback ready

    DNS switch during your quietest hour. Old server stays hot for 72 hours so a rollback is one click away.

  6. 6

    30 day watch

    We monitor coverage, rankings, and errors for a month after cutover. Written report at day 30.

Fixed prices, written quotes

Migration is a scoped project, not an hourly guess. You get a fixed quote, a written scope, and a go-live date before we start.

Common questions

Will my site go down during the move?+

No. We stage the new site first and only switch DNS after everything is verified. Visitors keep hitting the live site until the new one is ready, then transition seamlessly.

Will I lose my Google rankings?+

No. We build a full URL map before cutover, use one clean 301 per URL, re-audit canonicals and sitemaps, and monitor Search Console for 30 days. If organic traffic falls more than 10 percent from causes we control, we roll back or refund.

How long does a WordPress migration take?+

A straight host move usually takes 3 to 5 days. A domain change or CMS migration usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. Complex ecommerce or membership sites take 2 to 4 weeks. Timeline is agreed in writing before we start.

How much does a WordPress migration cost?+

Straight host moves start at $499. Domain change or CMS migration starts at $1,499. Complex ecommerce migration starts at $2,999. Every job gets a fixed written quote, no hourly billing surprises.

Can you migrate from Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, or Webflow?+

Yes. We move content, products, customers, orders, and 301 every old URL to its new WordPress home. See our dedicated pages for each source platform.

What if the old developer is gone?+

Common situation. We take over inherited sites, document what is there, and migrate what should move. If credentials are missing we can usually recover access through the domain registrar or host.
