Migrations are where rankings go to die โ€” unless they’re planned

Unmapped redirects. Lost internal links. Stripped metadata. Crawl chaos at launch. Most traffic losses after a replatform aren’t bad luck โ€” they’re the predictable result of migrating without an SEO plan.

The fear is real: sites regularly lose 30โ€“70% of organic traffic overnight when a migration ships without a redirect map and a staging audit. And most providers only sell you the redirect map โ€” nobody’s watching after launch, when the damage actually shows up.

Who this is for

๐Ÿข

Businesses

You’re replatforming, rebranding or merging domains and can’t afford to lose the traffic you’ve built. You want someone who owns the SEO side end-to-end while your developers build.

Frequently asked questions

How long before launch should we engage you?

Ideally 4โ€“8 weeks before launch, so the staging audit and redirect map are done before the pressure hits. We can work faster if your launch date is fixed.

Will we lose traffic?

Some short-term variance in the first weeks is normal. Our job is making sure it’s small and temporary โ€” that’s what the redirect mapping, staging audit and 8 weeks of monitoring are for.

Do you work with our developers directly?

Yes. We hand your dev team ticket-ready specs and stay available through launch. You don’t have to translate anything.

What platforms do you cover?

All major platforms โ€” WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, headless builds and custom stacks. The SEO fundamentals of replatforming are the same everywhere.

What happens if rankings drop after launch?

That’s exactly what the post-migration phase exists for: we identify the cause from crawl and index data, ship a prioritised fix list, and monitor until things recover.
