Site builders are fine to get started. But once you need performance, accessibility, flexibility, or a site that feels genuinely “yours”, the cracks show fast.
Signs it’s time to move on
- Your site is slow and you can’t meaningfully fix it.
- You’re fighting templates instead of editing content.
- Accessibility is difficult to control properly.
- SEO basics are fine, but structure and performance are holding you back.
- You want more control without becoming a part-time website mechanic.
How migrations work
This is usually a rebuild, but it doesn’t have to be stressful. We keep what’s good, restructure what isn’t, and handle redirects so you don’t lose pages or confuse search engines.
- Content and page plan.
- Build on proper foundations.
- Redirects where needed.
- Launch and tidy handover.

FAQs
Can I keep my existing content?
Yes. We can reuse, refine, and restructure it so it reads better and works harder.
Will my rankings drop?
Handled properly with stable URLs and redirects where necessary, you can migrate without wrecking SEO.
Will I still be able to update the site?
Yes. The goal is a site that’s easy to look after, not a museum piece.
