We migrate sites the way we migrated our own, rankings intact.
What a Webflow migration includes, and what it protects
A WordPress to Webflow migration moves your content, design, and (the part most people get wrong) your search rankings. Google has years of trust built into your current URLs. Migrate carelessly and that trust evaporates; traffic drops 30–60% and takes months to recover. Our process treats your rankings as the asset being moved: full URL inventory, one-to-one redirect map, and monitoring after launch. The design gets better. The traffic doesn’t flinch.
The five ways migrations lose traffic
Missing redirects: old URLs die unredirected and take their rankings with them; the classic. Changed URLs nobody mapped: “we cleaned up the slugs” is how six-figure traffic gets cleaned up too. Lost metadata: titles and descriptions rebuilt from memory instead of migrated, resetting years of optimization. Slower after: a beautiful rebuild that loads worse than the site it replaced, on the platform switch that was supposed to fix speed. Nobody watching afterward: the drop starts small in week two and becomes a crisis in week eight because no one was reading Search Console. Every step in our process exists to kill one of these. That’s not marketing structure, it’s the actual origin of the checklist.
What’s in a migration
Full site + SEO audit
Every URL, its rankings, its backlinks, benchmarked before anything moves.
Content migration
Pages, posts, images, metadata into a clean Webflow CMS.
Design rebuild or refresh
Pixel-faithful rebuild, or an upgrade while we’re in there.
One-to-one redirect map
Every old URL 301s to its exact new home, live in the same deploy.
SEO preservation
Metas, schema, internal links, sitemap carried over and verified.
60-day Search Console watch
We monitor rankings and indexing after launch and fix anything that moves.
What moves the price: page count, CMS collections, custom functionality, scoped and fixed before we start. What’s not included: net-new content, ongoing SEO (SEO Services).
The timeline, week by week
Week 1: benchmark and architecture. Rankings exported, URL map drafted, thin pages flagged for consolidation while we’re moving anyway. Weeks 2–3: Webflow build and content transfer. Automated export where it’s safe, manual QA on every page that matters, your team still publishing on the old site without freeze. Launch week: redirects ship in the same deploy as the new site, never after; sitemap resubmitted, Search Console inspected same day. Days 1–60: the watch. Rankings and indexing tracked against the benchmark, regressions fixed at no charge. Most sites: 2–4 weeks to launch. Large CMS builds run longer, and the proposal says so up front.
The migration process, step by step
Benchmark
Export rankings, traffic, and backlinks so “no loss” is provable, not promised.
Architecture
Map old URLs to new; flag thin pages worth consolidating while we’re moving.
Build
Webflow structure, CMS collections, templates.
Content transfer
Automated export + manual QA on every important page.
Redirects
The full 301 map ships in the same deploy as the new site. Never after. This step is where DIY migrations die.
Launch + verify
Sitemap resubmitted, Search Console inspected, rankings tracked for 60 days.
From WordPress
(Still deciding? The honest Webflow vs WordPress comparison.) Say goodbye to plugin updates, security patches, and PHP errors at 2am. Blogs with hundreds of posts move cleanly into Webflow CMS: categories, authors, metadata intact.
From Squarespace
(Undecided? The honest Webflow vs Squarespace comparison.) Squarespace’s clean URLs make it our simplest migration; its template limits are usually why you’re leaving. You keep the simplicity, lose the ceiling.
From Wix
Wix URLs are messy, which makes the redirect map matter more; read the comparison first if you’re still deciding.
From HubSpot CMS
Keep HubSpot for CRM and forms (we wire them into Webflow) and stop paying CMS Hub prices for a website builder.
Migration is an SEO job wearing a design costume
Most Webflow shops treat migration as a rebuild with a moving day. We’re an SEO agency that builds in Webflow: the redirect map, the schema, the Search Console watch aren’t add-ons, they’re the point. That’s the difference between “new site!” and “new site, same traffic, better conversion.” At enterprise scale, redirect discipline is the whole game.
Proof, not promises.

Migration questions, answered straight
Will I lose my Google rankings?
Not if every URL is mapped and redirected at launch. That’s the core of our process, benchmarked before and monitored 60 days after so it’s verified, not assumed.
Do rankings dip at all, honestly?
Small, temporary fluctuation in the first weeks is normal as Google recrawls. That’s different from loss, and it’s exactly what the 60-day watch distinguishes. What you avoid is the 30–60% cliff of a careless migration.
How long does a migration take?
2–4 weeks for most sites; large CMS builds run longer. Fixed timeline with the quote.
How much does it cost?
Fixed-price per migration, driven by page count and CMS complexity. Tell us about your site on the start form and you’ll have a written number within 24 hours.
Can we keep publishing during the migration?
Yes, no content freeze. New posts published during the build get picked up in a final sync before launch.
Can you redesign at the same time?
Yes, most clients do. Rebuild-as-is or upgrade the design; the redirect discipline is identical either way.
What about our forms and integrations?
Mapped in the architecture week and rewired at build: CRM forms, analytics, chat, the lot. Anything without a Webflow-native path gets an honest workaround or an honest “this one changes.”
What does Webflow hosting cost after?
A modest monthly platform fee that replaces hosting, plugins, and maintenance bills, usually cheaper than the WordPress stack it retires. Exact tiers are on Webflow’s site.
What if something breaks after launch?
That’s the 60-day watch: we monitor Search Console and fix regressions at no charge. After that, Maintenance & Support has you covered.
