Escaping Squarespace & Wix: Migration to WordPress
Leave a closed builder for a database you own.
Migrations
Leave Your Platform, Keep Your Rankings
Every migration we run follows the same guaranteed process: URL inventory, one-to-one 301 mapping, staged cutover, and 90 days of rank monitoring, priced fixed after a short assessment.
TL;DR
Migrations start with a $495 Migration Risk Assessment that inventories your URLs and extractable content, then a fixed quote from $1,500. The old site stays live and trading until cutover is verified; rankings are monitored for 90 days after.
The process, every time
Full URL inventory, a hand-built one-to-one 301 map (platform URL patterns rarely match, so this is never a wildcard rule), staged cutover with the old platform still trading, and 90 days of post-migration rank monitoring, on the Migrations service page.
What moves the quote
Page and product count, the platform pair, custom functionality that must be rebuilt, and integrations. The $495 assessment turns those variables into a fixed number before anything moves.
Three lines from a real 301 redirect map
Every migration produces a file like this covering every URL on the old site:
apache
# .htaccess excerpt - one entry per legacy URL, no wildcards for money pages
Redirect 301 /shop/blue-widget https://example.com/products/blue-widget/
Redirect 301 /about-us https://example.com/about/
Redirect 301 /blog/2023/05/big-news https://example.com/blog/big-news/The unglamorous truth of SEO-safe migration is a spreadsheet with hundreds of rows like these, each one verified after cutover.

Migration questions
Will I lose SEO if I migrate?
Not with a complete 301 map and unchanged content. Expect brief fluctuation in the first weeks, which the 90-day monitoring window exists to distinguish from an actual problem.
Do I need to keep paying my old platform during the migration?
Yes, until cutover is verified. The live site is both your revenue and your rollback; one extra month of platform fees is cheap insurance.
How is the price determined?
The $495 assessment produces a fixed quote from $1,500. Page and product count, platform pair, and integrations are the drivers, and the quote itemizes them.
Who maintains the site afterward?
Predictable monthly retainers that keep your website updated, secure, backed up, and monitored, on any platform, including custom PHP/CodeIgniter applications.
