Will we lose SEO rankings during migration?+
Rankings can fluctuate after a migration, and no migration can guarantee unchanged traffic. We reduce avoidable risk with a URL inventory, redirect mapping, metadata and internal-link checks, a staging crawl, and post-launch Search Console monitoring. The launch plan includes rollback criteria and a clear owner for any issues.
Can we keep WordPress for content editing?+
Yes. We can keep WordPress as a headless CMS or move to another editor-friendly CMS depending on your team workflow.
How do you handle old blog posts and dynamic URLs?+
We inventory the existing URLs, identify pages to retain or consolidate, and test permanent redirects to relevant destinations. We also check canonical URLs, internal links, sitemaps, and important landing pages before and after launch.
Do we need Next.js, or should we improve our WordPress site?+
A migration is appropriate when the product, frontend, or integration requirements justify the added operational work. If the problem is a slow theme, plugin debt, or a small number of weak pages, improving WordPress may be the better investment. We assess that decision before committing to a rebuild.
