Site Migration & Upgrades

Migrate and upgrade without losing traffic, content, or sleep.

Overview

We move sites between platforms, hosts, and major versions — preserving content, SEO, and performance through a tested, reversible process. The goal is simple: get to the better platform without losing what you've already built.

This is migrations, replatforms, and major version upgrades, planned and executed to minimize downtime and risk. It's for teams on aging platforms, end-of-life software, or hosting that no longer fits — and for anyone dreading a "big bang" cutover.

A careful migration protects the rankings, content, and trust you've spent years earning. Done right, the move is the boring part — and that's exactly how we like it.

Plan your migration — or read on to see how we de-risk it.

Our Services

Whether you're changing platforms, hosts, or major versions, the work is the same in spirit: move everything that matters, lose nothing, and keep a way back. Each service stands on its own, but they're strongest as one coordinated migration.

  • Platform & Host Migration

    Moving to the platform and host that fit where you're headed.

    • Move between CMSs, hosts, or to Pantheon
    • Content and media migration with integrity checks
    • DNS, SSL, and zero- or low-downtime cutover

  • Major Version Upgrades

    Getting current — and staying secure — without breaking what works.

    • Drupal and WordPress major-version upgrades
    • Dependency, module, and plugin compatibility
    • End-of-life remediation and security patching

  • SEO & Content Preservation

    Carrying your rankings and content across intact.

    • URL mapping and redirect strategy
    • Metadata, structured data, and ranking protection
    • Post-launch crawl and traffic monitoring

  • Migration Planning & Risk Assessment

    Knowing exactly what happens before anything moves.

    • Content audit and inventory
    • Rollback plan and staging rehearsal
    • Cutover runbook and go-live support

Our Approach

The riskiest migration is the one nobody rehearsed. We treat go-live as the last step of a process we've already run start to finish in staging — so by the time we cut over, there are no surprises left.

  • Understand the current site first

    We audit content, integrations, and traffic so nothing important is lost or overlooked.

  • Rehearse before you commit

    We run the migration in staging and validate with interactive previews before any cutover.

  • Close collaboration with you

    Clear checkpoints and a shared go-live plan, so your team knows exactly what happens and when.

  • Tight handoff with developers

    Documented redirect maps, configuration, and a rollback path, so engineering stays in control post-launch.

Our Values

A migration done right is one nobody notices. These are the standards that get us there — the difference between a clean move and a week of firefighting.

  • Accessibility preserved

    We carry WCAG standards through the move — and fix the gaps we find along the way.

  • Validated before and after cutover

    Real testing and crawls, not assumptions, confirm nothing broke in the move.

  • Documented for the future

    Redirect maps, runbooks, and configuration documented so the next change is easier.

The best measure of a migration is what the team can do once it's done. Here's a selection of recent work where the move set the site up for what's next.
