Common Migration Questions

  • What is website migration?

    Website migration is a process that involves significant changes to a website’s structure, content, location, UX, or design that could potentially impact search engine visibility. It includes switching your CMS, changing your domain, updating your site structure, or moving to a new server or host.

  • How long will the migration process take?

    It depends on the complexity of your website and the specific elements of migration required. It’s a good idea to start the process at least one month before your migration. This will give you time to test your new site, troubleshoot any issues that come up, and get everything ready for the big switch.

  • Is it hard to migrate a website?

    Website migration can indeed be complex, as it involves moving critical data from one system to another, and the process can have numerous components, depending on your specific scenario. This might include transferring the site structure, content, databases, images, and other elements.

    Navigating these steps can be challenging without the right technical knowledge. A misstep during the migration process might lead to broken links, lost data, or reduced site functionality, so it’s strongly recommended that a competent team of professionals carry out a website migration.

  • What are the risks of website migration?

    There are several potential risks you should be aware of when migrating a website:

    • Data Loss: This is one of the most significant risks associated with website migration. During the migration process, it’s possible for essential data to be accidentally lost or corrupted.
    • Broken Links: The URL structures of the pages might change during migration, leading to broken links. These can harm the user experience and negatively impact SEO efforts.
    • Downtime: There can be periods of downtime during the migration process. This can be mitigated by careful planning and executing the process during low-traffic periods.
    • SEO Impact: If incorrectly done, a website migration can temporarily or permanently harm a site’s SEO rankings.
  • Does website migration affect SEO?

    Without careful planning and the application of SEO best practices, website migration can potentially impact your SEO negatively. Factors such as changes in website structure, URL structure, or content can cause a fluctuation in rankings. However, when executed correctly, the impact on SEO can be mitigated and even improved over time.

    You want to ensure that your website retains its SEO value during migration. This involves things like setting up 301 redirects for changed URLs, preserving meta tags and keywords, and transferring all relevant content. SEO should be a prime consideration in every stage of the migration process to retain existing search engine rankings and website traffic.

  • What is a domain migration?

    Domain migration refers to the process of moving your website from one domain to another. It involves changing the website’s URL and redirects from the old domain to the new one. Domain migration can be done for various reasons, like rebranding, acquiring a more relevant domain name, or switching to a domain with a different extension.

    It’s crucial to ensure that all relevant SEO measures are taken during a domain migration. This includes setting up proper 301 redirects, updating internal links, informing Google about your new domain via Google Search Console, and updating your domain details in all your online marketing efforts.

  • Why do I need a professional service for website migration?

    Website migration is a complex process that requires careful planning and execution to ensure your site’s functionality, SEO, and overall performance remain unaffected. Professional service ensures this process is handled with the required expertise and meticulous attention, thereby minimizing the potential for errors or data loss.

  • What kind of businesses can use the website migration services?

    Our website migration services cater to a wide range of businesses, from small start-ups to enterprise-level organizations operating across various industries. Regardless of whether you manage a blog, a local business website, a portfolio site, or a large eCommerce platform, our skilled team is equipped with the knowledge, expertise, and experience to address your unique migration needs. We tailor our services to ensure seamless integration with your existing systems, and we work closely with you to guarantee that the migration process aligns with your specific goals and requirements.

  • Can you migrate my e-Commerce store without losing any data or customer history?

    Absolutely. Our top priority during an eCommerce store migration is to ensure all your valuable data remains intact, maintaining trust between your business and your customers. This includes vital information such as customer records, product listings, orders, blog posts, and meta-data. Our experienced team relies on industry-leading tools coupled with tried-and-tested methodologies to minimize any possibility of data loss.

    In addition, we employ robust backup practices and redundancies to protect your website data during the transfer, providing an extra layer of security and peace of mind throughout the migration process.

  • Do I need to provide anything during the website migration process?

    As we start with the migration process, you’ll need to provide a few essential details. First, we require access credentials to your existing website (for both the source and destination environments), such as hosting and domain details, as well as database and content management system details. Our team will securely manage this sensitive information and use it solely for the purpose of the migration.

    Furthermore, if you have any specific requests, functional requirements, or instructions, it’s crucial that you share them with us early on, so we can incorporate them into the overall migration plan. We believe in maintaining open and transparent communication throughout the process. We’ll keep you informed of our progress, and we’ll always be available to address any questions or concerns that may arise during the migration.

  • What is 'Post-Migration Support and Monitoring'?

    Our Post-Migration Support and Monitoring is an ongoing service we provide after the migration process is complete, ensuring that your website continues to operate smoothly and efficiently. During this period, our team will closely monitor your site’s performance, proactively identifying and resolving any issues that may arise after migration, such as broken links, website errors, or changes in SEO rankings.

    We take pride in our commitment to customer satisfaction – which is why our post-migration support covers not just the initial troubleshooting but also ongoing refinements to address any evolving needs or challenges that your website may face.

    We want to ensure that your new website not only functions optimally, but also contributes to the long-term success of your business. By partnering with you after the migration, we become an extension of your team, providing the expertise needed to drive continuous growth and achieve your business goals.
