Safely transitioning to your new domain
Domain migrations
Moving to a different domain carries risk, as it usually involves changes in design, content, and URL structure. Unless well implemented, this may lead to loss of traffic, broken links, or lowered rankings.
Domain migration can also affect how search engines crawl and index your site, which means a well-thought-out strategy is a must to prevent a dip in visibility. Here’s how our experts approach this:
- Back up your current website data and create a detailed migration map
- Set up URL redirects to guide search engines and users to the new web addresses
- Accurately transfer your content, like text, images, and meta tags
Upgrading your CMS with zero downtime
CMS migrations
The process of transitioning to an entirely new management system is complex. Most of that complication arises from the mere fact that all your data has to be transferred accurately.
With us, you will not have to worry about losing data during the CMS migration process. We’ll help you:
- Analyze your current CMS and plan a migration roadmap
- Identify potential risks to make sure nothing is left behind
- Migrate all media, metadata, and URLs to maintain SEO integrity
If you’re migrating to or taking over a WordPress SEO setup, we can help you keep rankings and optimize your site for even better visibility during the transition.
Seamlessly moving your site to a new server or host
Server and hosting migrations
Moving from one web hosting company to another is a common SEO migration service. But as with everything that involves technology, there is a risk your SEO will get hurt. That is why careful planning is crucial to protect performance.
Here at SeoProfy, we handle every step to ensure a successful migration:
- We make a full backup of your website to protect your data
- We coordinate with your hosting provider for a seamless transition of your server
- We ensure that security certificates are appropriately set up
After migration, we perform a technical SEO audit to make sure everything stays as it should, including accessibility.
Retaining your SEO impact even after a redesign
Redesign migrations
A website redesign comes with a great amount of changes to the website code, structure, visuals, and content. All these can contribute to shifts in SEO, so it’s important to deal with updates strategically to avoid any pitfalls that could negatively affect your rankings or traffic.
Our SEO website migration consultant helps to keep this process seamless and smooth. Here are some steps we take in moving your site:
- Conduct a comprehensive audit of the current site’s content and structure
- Identify high-performing pages and essential keywords to preserve
- Retain internal linking to maintain user navigation and link equity
- Monitor site speed and mobile responsiveness throughout the process
Updating your URLs to keep your search rankings strong
URL structure migrations
Changing your domain often means updating your URLs, which is a critical aspect when it comes to SEO. This is because your current pages already rank for certain keywords and contain many valuable backlinks that contribute to your organic visibility.
So changing such web addresses without proper redirection often results in the loss of rankings. To avoid this, our SEO consultant will:
- Catalog your existing URLs and their performance
- Map old web addresses to their new equivalents on the new website
- Create a redirect map for your web development team
Overall, your web addresses are very important for SEO, so be sure this process is done under an expert’s eye.
Our top SEO experts can manage your website migration
Our SEO website migration process
Initial set-up and recommendations
Our SEO experts make recommendations on creating backups, mapping already existing URLs, and transferring the content, meta tags, and internal links. We also establish key site elements that include language versions, robots.txt, and sitemaps. During this step, our team gathers semantic data on key pages and queries, usually 2-5 important queries for 20-40 priority pages to monitor SEO performance.
Migration implementation
Once the plan is ready, we migrate to a test site or subdomain to carefully check the data in order to make the process seamless. We accurately transfer all content, URLs, and HTML tags and update the site structure as a part of our site migration services.
Pre-migration check-up
After implementation, we perform a thorough technical audit to check the accuracy of URL changes, redirects, GSC and GA settings, content transfers, and other critical elements to ensure everything is functioning correctly. This stage helps verify whether something important was missed in the process of moving.
Fixing errors
After testing, we fix any errors that turn up and get your website ready to go live. When all errors are fixed, we release the updated site.
Production launch
Last but not least, we do the final check when the site goes live. We monitor metrics like keyword rankings and traffic to check if the performance of your website remains the same.
