New website, different CMS, another domain name or structure? With a well-thought-out migration plan your site moves β and your rankings stay put.
FREE MIGRATION CHECKLeave the move to chance and Google loses the trail. Your rankings slip away.

"A migration is the most nerve-racking moment in SEO. Do it with a plan β a complete redirect map and a tight go-live β and everything moves with you β your authority, your rankings and your traffic."
In short
The short answer
SEO migration
An SEO migration is moving a website to a new design, a different CMS, a different domain name or URL structure while keeping your existing visibility.
Because Google has to rediscover and reconnect every URL, a migration left to chance can cost rankings, traffic and authority, temporarily or for good.
In 2026 this counts double β the same signals that make you rank in Google determine whether AI engines such as ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews keep recognising your new site as a trustworthy source.
Sound familiar?
A redesign or a new platform, for example a move to Webflow or Shopify. Your content changes shape β and your rankings stay intact.
A new domain name, a brand name that changes, or merging and reordering URLs. The biggest leap β and exactly where a tight plan counts.

Run the numbers
Enter your own figures and see what better visibility delivers. Every assumption is listed below, with its source.
With a plan, that risk is small. As long as every old URL points via a 301 redirect to the correct new page, the authority you have built moves with it. A brief, temporary fluctuation can occur and your rankings usually return quickly.
You often see within a few weeks that Google has processed the new URLs. With a clean redirect map and a controlled go-live, rankings usually hold steady and indexing recovers quickly.
The best moment is before the move β you make the plan and the redirect map in advance. Bring us in as soon as you are considering a redesign, platform switch, domain change or restructure, so everything moves across correctly in one go.
Quick and direct - you get the specialist on the line straight away.
