Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions you need answered?
Or still wondering whether an SEO migration is right for you?

Migrating a website involves plenty of complexity, and we know how important it is to protect your current rankings, traffic, and revenue along the way. To keep disruption to a minimum, we follow a systematic approach:

  • Pre-Migration Analysis and Planning: Our team runs a detailed pre-migration analysis to map your current site’s structure, content, and SEO strengths. That lets us plan a migration strategy that preserves those elements and maintains continuity.
  • Redirect Implementation: A core part of the work is putting proper redirects in place. This is essential for preserving link equity and the traffic flowing to your new site from existing external links. We make sure every important page on your old site has a matching redirect on the new one.
  • Testing and Quality Assurance: We run rigorous testing and quality assurance throughout the migration. This lets us spot potential problems, such as broken links or loading errors, and fix them quickly so the user experience stays seamless.
  • Post-Migration Monitoring: Once the migration is live, we keep a close eye on your rankings, traffic, and revenue. Any meaningful shifts are addressed right away to head off negative impacts.
  • Communication and Collaboration: Throughout the project, we keep communication open with your team. We share regular updates and stay ready to address any concern or challenge promptly.

The aim of this careful approach is to make sure your migration doesn’t set your SEO back, but instead lays the groundwork for stronger results down the road.

Yes. We provide ongoing support and monitoring after the migration so your site’s SEO performance keeps moving in the right direction. Our services include:

  • Regular monitoring of rankings, traffic, and conversions.
  • Resolving any technical issues that come up.
  • Running periodic SEO audits and optimisations.
  • Recommending content updates and improvements.
  • Working with your team to align SEO efforts with your business goals.

The cost of an SEO migration depends on the size and complexity of the site, the scope of work involved, and your specific goals and requirements. We build customised solutions around your needs. Get in touch for a detailed quote and to talk through your project.

The timeline for an SEO migration depends on how complex and large your website is. That said, we generally follow a structured process with several key milestones and deliverables:

  • Initial Consultation and Analysis: The first step is understanding the current state of your website. We hold an initial consultation and run a thorough analysis of your existing SEO performance and site structure.
  • Migration Strategy and Plan: Based on that analysis, we develop a customised migration strategy for your site. The strategy includes an implementation plan that lays out the key tasks and timelines.
  • On-Page SEO Optimisations: We carry out on-page SEO optimisations, including keyword research, content optimisation, and meta tag updates. This work makes sure your new site is fully optimised for search engines and users.
  • Technical SEO Changes: We implement the necessary technical SEO changes, such as URL structure updates and redirects. These changes help preserve link equity and keep your site visible in search results.
  • Monitoring and Testing: After the new site launches, we monitor and test it carefully for any issues or errors so problems are caught and fixed quickly.
  • Progress Tracking and Reporting: We track key metrics like rankings, traffic, and conversions after migration. Regular reports keep you updated on how the new site is performing.
  • Ongoing Optimisation: Finally, we keep refining and adjusting the strategy based on the performance data. This keeps your site improving and on track to hit your SEO goals.

Every step here matters to a successful SEO migration. Our team works closely with you through each stage, keeping you informed and involved.

Yes, we have deep experience handling SEO migrations for international and multilingual websites. Our expertise includes:

  • Implementing hreflang tags to signal language and regional targeting.
  • Managing country-specific domains or subdomains.
  • Conducting keyword research and optimisation across multiple languages.
  • Handling content translation and localisation.
  • Ensuring proper international redirects and canonicalization.
