Planning and monitoring that protects rankings through redesigns, replatforms and domain moves. Website migration SEO protects your rankings and traffic when you change domain, platform, URL structure, design or hosting, through careful planning, redirect mapping, pre-launch testing and post-launch monitoring.
Migrations are where years of SEO equity can be lost in a day. Most traffic losses after a relaunch come from missing redirects, blocked staging settings or changed content that nobody checked.

Frequently asked questions
How long does traffic take to recover after a migration?
A well-run migration often sees only a small dip that recovers within weeks. Poorly planned ones can take months.
Can you fix a migration that already went wrong?
Often yes. Restoring redirects and fixing technical errors quickly recovers much of the lost traffic.
Do redirects pass full value?
Permanent redirects pass ranking signals well when they point to the closest equivalent page.
Should I change URLs during a redesign?
Only when there is a clear benefit. Every URL change adds risk.
When should SEO be involved?
At the planning stage, before URLs and templates are fixed.
