WordPress Migration

Zero-downtime moves

We'll move your site over. You won't notice.

Moving hosts is the thing everyone puts off because it sounds risky. Our migration team does it for free, tests everything before your domain changes, and keeps you covered if anything looks off after the switch.

The problem

What we're actually fixing

Most hosting problems don't show up until they're expensive. Here's what we see most often before a site moves to us.

Fear of breaking something

A botched migration can mean lost orders, broken links, or a site that's down for hours. Most site owners would rather stay on bad hosting than risk it.

No technical time to do it properly

A proper migration means checking DNS, SSL, redirects, forms, and email, one at a time. Few teams have a spare day for that.

Losing SEO rankings in the move

Get redirects or canonical tags wrong during a move and rankings built over years can drop within weeks.

Being locked in by the current host

Some hosts make exporting a full site deliberately awkward, hoping you'll give up and stay.

What's included

Everything that comes with it

01

Free migration, any source

WordPress.com, shared hosting, another managed host, or a server you manage yourself, we've migrated from all of them.

02

Full pre-launch checklist

Every page, form, redirect, and integration gets tested on a staging URL before we touch your live DNS.

03

SEO-safe by default

Redirects, canonical URLs, and sitemap settings are checked against the original site so rankings carry over cleanly.

04

Email and DNS handled carefully

We map every existing DNS record before changing anything, so mail and any connected services keep working.

05

Scheduled cutover window

You choose the time. We do the DNS switch outside business hours if that's what suits your traffic pattern.

06

30 days of migration support

If something surfaces after the move that traces back to the migration, we fix it at no charge.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need to cancel my old hosting first?

No, and you shouldn't. Keep the old host active until the new site is live, tested, and you're confident in it. We'll tell you exactly when it's safe to cancel.

How long does a migration actually take?

A standard single site takes one working day from handover to a tested staging copy. Larger sites, multisite networks, or stores with a lot of custom code can take three to five days.

What if my site has custom code or an unusual setup?

We ask for access up front specifically to catch this. If your site needs something outside a standard migration, we'll tell you before starting, not after.

Do you migrate email too?

We migrate the website. If your email runs through a separate provider, we'll map the existing DNS records so it keeps working through the switch, and flag anything that needs your provider's attention.
