The problem

Most migrations quietly wreck your SEO

Replatforming, redesigning, or moving domains should be a step forward. Too often, it's a disaster you don't notice until it's too late. Weeks after launch, traffic craters — URLs changed without redirects, metadata got lost, structured data disappeared, internal links broke, and the rankings you spent years building evaporated overnight. The new site looks great and gets a fraction of the visitors. It's one of the most common and most expensive SEO mistakes a business can make.

The frustrating part is that it's entirely avoidable. Migrations fail because SEO is treated as an afterthought — something to check after the shiny new design ships. But preserving rankings through a migration takes deliberate, careful work done before launch: mapping every old URL to its new home, preserving titles and metadata, carrying over structured data, and testing everything before you flip the switch. Done right, a migration is invisible to Google and your users. Done wrong, it can set you back a year.

We handle website migrations the careful way — whether you're changing platforms, redesigning, moving to a new domain, or consolidating sites — so you get the better website you want without sacrificing the traffic and rankings you've already earned.

What we protect

What a safe migration protects

A migration touches everything search engines rely on. We protect each of these so nothing is lost in the move.

Redirect Mapping

Every old URL mapped to its new home with proper 301s — the single most important migration step.

Metadata & Content

Titles, descriptions, headings, and content preserved so pages keep their ranking signals.

Structured Data

Schema carried over and validated so you don't lose rich results and AI visibility.

Internal Links

Internal linking rebuilt so authority keeps flowing to your important pages.

Sitemaps & Crawling

Updated sitemaps and crawl signals so Google discovers the new site quickly and correctly.

Pre-Launch Testing

Everything tested on staging before launch, so problems are caught before they cost you.

Who it's for

For anyone about to change or move their site

If you're redesigning your website, switching platforms (say, to WordPress, Shopify, or a custom build), moving to a new domain, consolidating multiple sites, or restructuring your URLs, you're about to put your rankings at risk — whether you realize it or not. The bigger and older your site, the more there is to lose, and the more careful the migration has to be.

We handle migrations for businesses of every size, on every platform. Whether you're moving because your current site is holding you back or because you've outgrown it, we make sure the move is a step up and not a setback. And if a past migration already cost you traffic, we can diagnose what broke and recover what's recoverable.

Our edge

Migrations from people who've done hundreds

We've migrated and rebuilt hundreds of websites — from dated WordPress sites to fast, modern, custom-coded platforms — while preserving their rankings and traffic. That experience is the difference between a migration that goes smoothly and one that goes sideways. We know exactly where migrations break, because we've seen every failure mode and built our process specifically to prevent them.

Being both SEO experts and developers is what makes a safe migration possible. The developer building your new site and the SEO protecting your rankings are the same team, working from the same plan — no hand-off gap where redirects get forgotten or metadata gets dropped. We map every URL, preserve every signal, test everything on staging, and monitor closely through launch and beyond.

And we treat the migration as an opportunity, not just a risk to manage. A well-planned migration is the perfect moment to fix technical debt, improve site architecture, speed up your pages, and strengthen your structured data — so you don't just preserve your rankings, you come out the other side with a foundation that ranks better than before.

The process

How we do it

A methodical, staged process designed to make the migration invisible to Google and your users.

1

Audit & Baseline

We crawl your current site, inventory every URL, and record your rankings and traffic as a baseline.

2

Mapping & Planning

We map every old URL to its new destination and plan redirects, metadata, and schema preservation.

3

Build & Preserve

We build or configure the new site with SEO baked in — content, metadata, structure, and schema intact.

4

Test on Staging

We test redirects, links, and SEO signals on staging and fix every issue before launch.

5

Launch & Monitor

We launch carefully and monitor crawling, rankings, and traffic closely to catch anything early.

What clients say

Businesses grow with eSEOspace

★★★★★

“Since beginning work with Irina and her staff at eSEOspace our internet activity has really begun to lift off. We had lots of issues with our site and the site was built several years ago. Irina found the problems, created a plan to fix them, and has since been implementing the plan to drive traffic to our site. Give them a call — they are a great company to work with!”

“After quickly exiting a previous marketing contract and needing to hit the ground running, the swift and capable onboarding with eSEOspace was exactly what we needed. Six months in, it's been a completely different experience. Irina and her team bring a level of attention to detail and consistency that you rarely find. As someone with over 15 years of marketing experience, I'm not easy to impress — what sets them apart is that they genuinely listen. It feels like a partnership, not a vendor relationship. eSEOspa…”

I would absolutely work with them again and highly recommend eSEOspace.”

FAQ

Common questions

Will I lose rankings when I migrate?
Not if it's done right. Ranking loss comes from broken redirects, lost metadata, and dropped signals — all preventable with careful planning. Our whole process exists to preserve your rankings through the move, and we monitor closely to catch anything early.
What kinds of migrations do you handle?
Platform changes (to WordPress, Shopify, or custom builds), redesigns, domain moves, site consolidations, and URL restructures. Any change that affects your URLs or site structure is a migration, and we handle all of them.
How important are redirects?
Critically important — it's the number-one reason migrations fail. Every old URL that has rankings or links needs a proper 301 redirect to its new home. We map and implement every one, and test them all before launch.
Can you fix a migration that already hurt my traffic?
Often, yes. If a past migration caused a traffic drop, we can audit what broke — missing redirects, lost metadata, orphaned pages — and recover what's recoverable. The sooner we look, the more we can save.
Will the migration disrupt my live site?
No. We build and test everything on staging first, then execute the migration carefully with monitoring in place. Downtime is minimized and the switch is planned, not improvised.
Is a migration a good time to improve the site?
Absolutely. We treat migrations as a chance to fix technical debt, improve architecture and speed, and strengthen structured data — so you preserve your rankings and come out with a better-performing site than before.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on the size and complexity of the site, but the key point is that we never rush the SEO-critical steps. Proper mapping, preservation, and testing take the time they take — because that's exactly where rushed migrations go wrong.
