One of the biggest problems with a site rebuild is the potential for broken links from external sites. Think about the other sites (associations, social media posts, and other businesses) that have linked to your content.
Not only do these links bring you visitors, but they also increase your authority with search engines. When they break, you lose both.
We take this into account with every site rebuild. And have extensive experience rebuilding broken sites.
With all our site rebuilds, we offer the following:
- All the above features (in a new site build)
- Output detailed sitemap of current URLs
- Recreate the same permalink structure for all URLs.
- Map all current URLs to URLs on the new site

Migration to WordPress
Closely related to a site rebuild is moving a site from one content management system (CMS) to WordPress.
WordPress is the most versatile CMS for site building. But many sites begin on other platforms. We can migrate your Wix, Joomla, Drupal, Squarespace, or any other platform to WordPress. Contact us for a quote, based on your specific site.
