Move house without losing a single familiar address

Migration can involve a platform, host, or domain change. It puts indexed URLs, content, backlinks, data, and availability at risk. Our URL inventory, redirects, content transfer, and testing are limited to the items and access agreed in writing; completeness, traffic, and ranking are not guaranteed.

// why this matters

Context & rationale.

A 301 redirect helps send an old URL to a relevant new address. A written inventory and one-to-one mapping reduce the risk of missing content, broken links, database issues, downtime, and search disruption. They cannot guarantee unchanged traffic, ranking, speed, or user experience.

// what you get

Full deliverables.

An inventory of URLs, pages, content, and images within the written scope
Mapping old → new URLs, one by one (not a mass redirect)
301 redirects for changed URLs listed in the written inventory
Content migration with a written checklist and validation
Database migration if the old platform is CMS-based
Setup on the new platform/hosting with the correct configuration
Thorough testing on staging before go-live
A downtime target only when written into the migration plan; zero downtime is not guaranteed
Post-migration verification: check index, check links, check Search Console
Post-migration monitoring only for the written period and to report changes, not guarantee ranking stability
Re-submission of the sitemap & notifying Google of the changes

// our process

How we work.

01

Inventory & Mapping

We make a complete list of all indexed URLs, all pages & content of the old website. Then map them one by one to the new structure. This is the foundation that determines whether a migration succeeds or fails.

02

Build & Migrate on Staging

We prepare the new platform on staging and move content from the written inventory. The old site remains online where access and providers allow; availability is not guaranteed.

03

Test & Prepare Redirects

On staging we test everything: every page exists, every link works, every image appears. We prepare a 301 redirect for every URL that changes. Nothing is skipped.

04

Go-Live & Verify

Switch to the new website — downtime a matter of minutes. Then verify: redirects work, the new sitemap is submitted, Search Console is clean of errors.

05

Monitor Stability

Any Search Console and ranking monitoring period applies only when written. Issues follow the agreed priority and response target; completion uses a technical checklist, not a ranking guarantee.

// technical approach

How it works under the hood.

The old site is retained during staging where access and providers allow. URLs, pages, and media are inventoried within written limits, and changed URLs are mapped to relevant destinations rather than mass-redirected. The new sitemap can be submitted and Search Console monitored for the period in scope. Completion follows the agreed technical checklist; inventory completeness, availability, traffic, and ranking are not guaranteed.

// perfect for

Ideal if you...

  • Websites on an old platform that's slow & can no longer be fixed
  • Businesses whose hosting goes down often & who want to move to something more stable
  • A rebrand that needs a domain name change without losing SEO
  • Owners locked into an old system because the old developer went out of contact
  • Websites wanting to move from a limited builder to a freer foundation

// not a fit for

Maybe not you if...

  • ×A website that actually just needs speed optimization, not a platform move
  • ×A new website that doesn't have traffic yet — its migration is risk-free, an ordinary move works

// real example

Portal Info Wisata — Malang

This tourism information portal had 400+ articles built over years on a website builder that was getting slower and more expensive. Its organic traffic was good — that was its main asset. A previous vendor had once offered a migration but with a plan to mass-redirect to the homepage; luckily they hesitated and came to us. We mapped all four hundred URLs one by one, migrated all the articles along with their images, and tested thoroughly on staging. After go-live, traffic didn't drop — within 3 weeks it actually rose 12% because the new platform was far faster.

outcome

400+ URLs migrated without losing traffic, +12% organic within 3 weeks

Common questions.

Is my Google ranking safe during migration?

Risk can be reduced, but ranking and traffic cannot be guaranteed. Changed URLs in the written inventory are mapped to relevant destinations; mass redirects are avoided unless specifically approved.

Will my website be down during migration?

The old site is retained during staging where access and providers allow. Any cutover downtime target is binding only when written; zero downtime is not guaranteed.

I want to change my domain name, is that included in migration?

A domain change can be included in the written migration scope. Inventoried URLs are mapped, redirects prepared, and Google notified where access allows; indexing, traffic, and ranking are not guaranteed.

My old developer disappeared & I don't have access, can I migrate?

Content that remains accessible can be inventoried and reconstructed within scope. Completeness depends on source access and format, and domain or hosting access is still required for go-live.

How long does the migration process take?

The estimate depends on URL count, platform, database, access, and provider readiness. Timeline and monitoring are binding only when written; ranking and traffic stability are not guaranteed.

What's the difference between migration and redesign?

Migration = moving the website to a new platform/hosting/domain, the focus being continuity. Redesign = changing the look & UX. The two can be combined: switch platforms while also updating the look.
