What Is A Website Migration

A website migration is the process of moving your website. This could be from an old domain to a new one, changing hosting providers or making large-scale changes to a website. Around 80% of all website migrations result in a drop in traffic, so its our job to mitigate this loss as much as possible.

We conduct an SEO audit before and after the migration ensures that all pages, content, links, tags and mobile functionalities are in place and working correctly. This includes checking for broken pages, redirects and missing meta tags. We then compare the data to see if any new issues have arisen.

The Dangers of Migrating a Website Incorrectly

1. Loss of Organic Search Traffic

If you don't implement proper redirects or preserve SEO-critical elements, search engines may no longer recognise your content. This can result in a sharp decline in organic traffic, which can take months to recover.

2. Broken Links and 404 Errors

Failing to map and redirect URLs correctly creates broken internal and external links. This frustrates users, harms your site’s reputation, and tells Google your site isn't trustworthy which then leads to lower rankings.

3. Decline in Keyword Rankings

Search engines rely on consistency. If your URL structures, metadata, content, or internal links are changed without consideration for SEO, your site may lose keyword rankings you’ve spent years building.

4. Improper Redirects and Lost Authority

If your site doesn't use 301 redirects correctly, you could lose valuable link equity from backlinks pointing to your old URLs. This means you're essentially starting from scratch with search engines.

5. Technical Errors and Indexing Issues

From forgetting to update your sitemap or robots.txt file, to launching a live site with no-index tags still in place. This can prevent your new site from being crawled or indexed by Google at all.

6. Data Loss and Incomplete Content Transfer

Without a thorough audit and backup process, you risk losing valuable content, media files, or user data which then impacts both SEO performance and the user experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

An SEO website migration involves significant changes to a website’s domain, structure, platform, design, or content that could affect its visibility in search engines.

The goal is to preserve or improve organic performance while making technical or structural changes.

To migrate SEO effectively:

  1. Create a full crawl and backup of your existing site.
  2. Map old URLs to their new versions using 301 redirects.
  3. Retain on-page SEO elements like meta titles, descriptions, headings, and alt text.
  4. Update internal links.
  5. Submit a new XML sitemap to Google Search Console.
  6. Monitor traffic, rankings, and crawl errors after launch.

Yes, it can. A website migration will minimise negative SEO impacts and improve performance over time if done correctly.

A poorly executed migration can lead to broken links, lost rankings, and traffic drops. Which is why planning and SEO expertise are essential.

Yes, fluctuations are common. Even in well-managed migrations. Search engines need time to recrawl and index your new setup. Rankings usually stabilise within a few weeks to a few months, depending on site size and complexity.

It can. If your new site improves speed, usability, mobile-friendliness, structure, or content quality, you may see a positive impact on SEO after migration.

Ideally, consult an SEO or a migration expert before starting any migration. Early involvement helps avoid costly mistakes and ensures your strategy is built with search performance in mind.

Absolutely—when there’s a valid reason (like rebranding, platform upgrades, or improving site performance). The key is strategic planning and risk management to ensure the benefits outweigh the short-term disruptions.

 

Changing domains alone doesn’t guarantee more traffic. SEO traffic can grow over time, especially if the new domain is more authoritative or brand-friendly.

If your site is small and you have technical SEO knowledge, it’s possible. But for larger or more complex websites, it’s best to work with professionals to avoid errors that could severely damage your rankings.

A 301 redirect permanently points an old URL to a new one. They’re crucial during migrations to:

  • Preserve SEO equity
  • Guide users and search engines to updated pages
  • Prevent 404 errors
  • Use them when you change URLs, move pages, or change domains.

Key performance indicators include:

  • Organic traffic levels
  • Keyword rankings
  • Indexed pages in Google
  • Bounce rate and time on site
  • Conversion rate
  • Crawl errors and broken links
  • Core Web Vitals
  • Track before and after for a true comparison.

Pre-launch SEO audits should include:

  • A full crawl of old and new sites
  • Redirect mapping
  • Keyword performance review
  • Core Web Vitals testing
  • Canonical tag and metadata checks
  • Internal link testing
  • These steps help you predict and prevent SEO losses.
On average, 4 to 12 weeks—assuming everything has been completed. Complex sites may take longer. Monitoring and proactive fixes can accelerate recovery.

Yes, it’s common to see a temporary decline in search visibility as Google would need to re-index your new setup. It’s important to set stakeholder expectations accordingly and show trends from similar past projects.

It depends. A full migration is more efficient, but staged migrations can reduce risk for very large or complex sites. An SEO professional can help choose the best strategy based on your goals and structure.

 

Only after reviewing each page’s SEO value:

  • Check for backlinks, keyword rankings, and conversions.
  • If it provides little value, redirect it to a relevant page or consolidate it.
  • Use tools like Google Analytics, Search Console, and backlink checkers to decide.
  • Never delete without evaluating its contribution to your SEO.

If redirects are fixed quickly and content is intact, recovery can begin within weeks, but full restoration may take 1–3 months or longer. Fixing all technical issues and submitting updated sitemaps is essential.
