WordPress Migration Service That Preserves Rankings

Move your WordPress site to better hosting, consolidate sites, or migrate from Wix / Squarespace / Shopify — without losing SEO, content, or sleep. Done by someone who has migrated hundreds of sites.

Why Choose My WordPress Migration Service?

A WordPress migration is one of the most failure-prone projects in the WordPress lifecycle. Done wrong, you lose rankings (sometimes permanently), break SEO redirects, corrupt the database, or wake up to a white screen on launch day. Done right, the migration is invisible to users — they never notice. My WordPress migration service covers host-to-host moves, platform-to-WordPress consolidations (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, custom CMS), and WordPress-to-WordPress consolidation. Every migration includes proper redirect mapping, content verification, SEO preservation, and post-cutover monitoring.

WordPress Migration Service — FAQs

Will I lose rankings during the migration?

A properly executed WordPress migration retains 90-95% of rankings. The other 5-10% is normal short-term volatility that recovers within 2-6 weeks. The “horror stories” of migrations losing 50%+ of rankings come from skipped redirect maps, incorrect 301 implementations, or missing Search Console transitions. My process prevents all three.

How long does a WordPress migration take?

Host-to-host: 1-3 days for a typical site. Platform-to-WordPress (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify): 2-6 weeks depending on content volume + complexity. WooCommerce migrations: 4-10 weeks. Multi-site consolidations: 6-12 weeks. The actual cutover (DNS flip) is minutes; preparation + verification is the bulk of the timeline.

Will my site go down during migration?

Properly planned migrations have zero or minutes of downtime. The new site is built on staging, fully tested, then cutover via DNS during a low-traffic window. Old site stays live until the new site is verified working. Worst case: 1-5 minutes of “DNS propagation” where some users see old, some see new — but neither is broken.

Can you migrate from Shopify to WooCommerce?

Yes — Shopify-to-WooCommerce is a frequent migration. Products + customers + orders migrate via API export. Stripe migration team coordinates payment method handover for active subscriptions. Custom checkout flow rebuilt in WooCommerce. Cart abandonment data, reviews, loyalty programs migrated where possible. Typical timeline: 6-12 weeks.

What about WordPress.com to WordPress.org?

Common migration when sites outgrow WordPress.com’s plugin restrictions. Content + media exports easily via WordPress.com export tool. Custom code (CSS, JavaScript) needs to be rebuilt as theme/plugin code. URL structure usually preserved (saves redirect work). Total timeline: 2-4 weeks for typical sites.

How do you handle WooCommerce subscriptions during migration?

Active subscriptions are the most fragile part of a WooCommerce migration. The pattern: pause new sign-ups 30 days before migration, coordinate with Stripe migration team to move customer payment methods to new processor account, migrate subscription metadata to new WooCommerce, resume sign-ups on new platform. Done correctly, customers see no disruption.

Will my SEO be affected during the migration?

Short-term ranking volatility (normal for any major site change) lasts 2-6 weeks. Long-term, properly migrated sites maintain or improve rankings (faster hosting often improves Core Web Vitals). The migration itself is not the SEO risk; skipped redirect mapping or missing Search Console transition is. Both are core deliverables of the migration service.

Do you keep my old site as a backup?

Yes — the old site stays live on its original hosting for 30 days post-cutover as fallback. After that period, the old site is shut down or kept as cold backup based on your preference. This 30-day window is your safety net if any unexpected issues surface that need rollback.
