Move your website to a new host, domain or platform carefully, protecting your pages, rankings and enquiries.
Why Migrations Go Wrong
Moving a website seems simple, but small mistakes can cause real damage: pages that disappear, broken forms, missing email, lost redirects or a site that search engines can no longer crawl. Businesses often find out only after enquiries drop.
We plan a migration so that the move is safe and reversible. We copy the site, test it before switching, set up redirects where addresses change and check indexing afterwards. It is part of our website designing services and works hand in hand with a redesign when both happen together.
Common Reasons to Migrate
- Moving to faster or more reliable hosting
- Changing to a new domain name or brand
- Moving from another platform to WordPress
- Switching from HTTP to HTTPS
- Merging two websites into one
- Moving to a new agency or developer
How We Protect Your Site
- Full backup before anything changes
- Test copy checked before switching
- Page-by-page address map and 301 redirects
- Checks on forms, email, tracking and SSL
- Sitemap and robots settings reviewed
- Monitoring of indexing and traffic afterwards
Frequently Asked Questions
We aim for little or no downtime by preparing a copy and switching only when it is tested. Some short interruptions can be unavoidable, and we plan them with you.
Careful planning and redirects reduce the risk, but we cannot guarantee rankings will not move during a change.
Email depends on your hosting setup. We can advise and help you avoid losing mail during the move.
