Moving is the easy part.

Copying files takes an afternoon. Keeping content, URLs and editors working takes a plan.

What's included

Every post, every URL.

We treat a WordPress migration as a content project first and a technical move second.

Inventory the content

Every page, post, media file and author listed with traffic data, then marked to keep, merge or retire before anything moves.

Convert to blocks

Shortcodes, page builder layouts and legacy HTML converted into Gutenberg blocks, so migrated posts stay editable in the new theme.

Map every redirect

A 301 map for every changed URL, set at server or plugin level, covering old categories, tags, feeds and media paths.

Check after launch

Crawls, Search Console coverage and broken link reports in the weeks after the move, with fixes shipped as issues appear.

Security, by consideration.

Trust is part of the build.

For your WordPress project, we consider editor access, plugins, form submissions and ongoing updates as part of one connected build.

WordPress migration questions.

A few things worth discussing before your WordPress migration takes shape.

How do you migrate a website to WordPress from another CMS?

Migrating a website to WordPress from another CMS starts with a full export of content, media and URLs. We map each content type to WordPress post types and fields, import with scripts rather than copy and paste, and set 301 redirects so old links and rankings carry over.

How do we move WordPress to a new host without downtime?

Moving WordPress to a new host without downtime means copying the site in advance and switching DNS only once the copy is tested. We sync files and database, lower DNS TTLs beforehand, freeze content briefly for the final sync and check the new host before sending traffic to it.

Can old WordPress posts be converted to Gutenberg blocks?

Old WordPress posts can be converted to Gutenberg blocks, automatically for simple content or with scripts for shortcodes and page builder markup. We test conversions on a sample first, because heavy page builder layouts are sometimes faster to rebuild by hand than by script.

How long does a WordPress migration take?

A host-to-host move is the quickest. A move from another CMS, with content restructured into new post types and blocks, takes longest. Editors keep publishing until the short final freeze.
