FAQs

Why shouldn't I just use automated migration tools?

Yes, there are automatic "AI" based website migrations to WordPress tools out there, but unfortunately, the results of the migration cause functional issues and SEO drops. Thoroughly planned, careful migration is the only way to move your website to a new CMS without compromising functionality and SEO.

Why is it risky to migrate your site?

There are a few reasons that can be divided into technical risks, SEO risks, and 3rd party integrations.

Technical issues include anything from the site being entirely down, to checkout or form submission issues or other functional errors.

SEO issues for sites with established rankings are very common and include anything from keyword ranking drops, to pages vanishing completely from search results.

3rd party integrations can have issues that affect communication between your site and external tools like marketing automation, tracking, CRM etc.

A site migration for an established business is very sensitive and should be planned and executed by a professional with good site migration experience.

What makes you so good at migrations?

  1. We know what's at stake, and we take your business extremely seriously
  2. We carefully follow every step in the book and other processes we learned over time.
  3. Our SEO agency migrated hundreds of established websites and eCommerce stores and dealt hands-on with every possible issue.
  4. We're fully dedicated to every migration and we stay up around the clock during and post-launch to ensure everything works smoothly.

Do you guys switch any CMS to any CMS?

For non-eComm sites and healthcare providers, we migrate from any CMS to WordPress or WP-based Gatsby.

For online shopping brands, we migrate from any CMS to either WP-based Woocommerce, Shopify, Shopify-Plus, or Magento 2.

How long does it take to migrate?

The time it takes to migrate depends on the complexity of the type of migration.

Things like CMS updates and server migration can take a couple of weeks. However, more complex migration types like CMS switching, site consolidation, re-coding a theme for improved SEO, and full redesign, take our web developers anywhere from 2-6 months as we follow the process described at the top of the page, and it varies by size and involved functionality of the site.

 

How much do you charge for migration?

Unlike basic website development and monthly SEO packages, website migrations are not a one size fits all and each migration must be delicately analyzed, planned, and executed.

You will get a better idea by letting us know your site address and situation in the form below. Based on your description, we will look at what we can and have a good idea of the time estimate before we even meet.

To give us a better understanding, please list the functionality and different page templates you'd like to be included in your new site after migration. If you want everything cloned as is, say so.
