If every change to your site means a developer editing files, WordPress lets your team make those edits themselves, and the site still looks the same. We rebuild your pages in WordPress and move your images and files. Then we redirect every .html address and monitor search for 90 days after launch.
Most static sites still work. The problem is the old code underneath them and the time it takes to change anything.
Bootstrap 3 stopped getting support on July 24, 2019 and Bootstrap 4 on January 1, 2023. Neither receives updates or security fixes.
jQuery 1.x and 2.x are no longer supported. A flaw in versions before 3.5.0 was added to the US government’s list (CISA) of actively exploited vulnerabilities in January 2025.
About a third of websites (32.1%) use no content management system, so every change means editing code and uploading files.
Your design is rebuilt as an editable WordPress theme. Content, images, and files move across. Old code is replaced.
| Item | What happens | How we handle it |
|---|---|---|
| Pages | Rebuilt | Rebuilt as editable WordPress pages that match your current design on desktop, tablet, and phone. |
| Images and PDFs | Moves unchanged | Moved into the WordPress media library, with old file addresses kept working or redirected. |
| Contact forms | Rebuilt | Old form scripts and third-party form services are replaced with a WordPress form plugin sending to the same inbox. |
| Old JavaScript and Bootstrap | Rebuilt | Replaced with maintained code, so the site no longer depends on unsupported libraries. |
| SEO titles and descriptions | Moves unchanged | Copied from each page’s HTML into an SEO plugin, page by page. |
| Hosting | Moves, with changes | The site moves to WordPress hosting. We plan the switch with your domain and email so your site and email keep working. |
Redirects and URLs
Static sites use file names as addresses. WordPress doesn’t, so each one needs a matching redirect.
Pages like /about.html become /about/ in WordPress, so each one gets its own permanent (301) redirect.
Addresses like /services/index.html and /services/ both point to the same page. Both versions are redirected to one address.
Older static sites are often reachable with and without www, or over http. We pick one version and redirect the rest.
PDFs and images that other sites link to keep their addresses or get individual redirects.
Old pages still on the server but missing from the menus are found through Search Console, analytics, and backlinks, then kept or redirected.

“From” is the starting price for the kind of site described. Prices depend on your site’s size and setup. You get a quote before any work starts, and we don’t bill by the hour.
No one can promise how Google will rank your site after a move, including us. What we can promise is the work that protects your rankings, done carefully and put in writing.
Ask us about the guaranteeGoogle decides rankings, not us. Even a careful migration can cause some movement while Google recrawls the new site and works out what changed, and it can take a few weeks to settle.
Google also changes how it ranks sites throughout the year. If an update shifts your traffic, that isn’t something any migration team controls. Anyone who guarantees your rankings is promising something they can’t deliver.
We take every precaution we know of, and we stay accountable after launch.
Every page we can find gets a new home. We collect old addresses from your sitemap, Google Search Console, analytics, and links from other sites. Each one gets a destination: the matching page, the closest match, or a removal you’ve agreed to. You see the full list before launch.
Nothing is removed by accident. Pages you choose to retire are removed on purpose. If any other old link stops working after launch, we fix it.
We watch for 90 days. After launch we track which pages Google indexes, any errors it reports, and traffic to the pages we moved, and we send you a report at 30, 60, and 90 days.
If it’s our mistake, we fix it for free. If something we missed or broke causes a problem in those 90 days, we fix it at no cost.
The guarantee covers our work. It doesn’t cover Google algorithm updates, content you change after launch, pages removed at your request, or problems caused by your host, third-party plugins, or other vendors.
If the site rarely changes, loads fast, and runs on current, supported code, there may be no reason to move. If outdated code (like old Bootstrap or jQuery) is the only problem, updating it may cost less than a move, and we’ll say so.

Get a migration quoteYes, as closely as we can. We rebuild your current design as a WordPress theme, so visitors see the same site and your team gets an editor.
Yes, because WordPress doesn’t use .html addresses. Every old address gets its own redirect before launch.
No. We set up the editor so you can change text, images, and pages without touching code, and walk you through it at launch.
It’s rebuilt with a WordPress form plugin and sends to the same inbox. We test it before launch.
Lasting losses usually come from missed .html pages and files, which we map before launch. Expect some movement while Google recrawls. We monitor search for 90 days and fix anything our work caused at no charge. No one can promise rankings, but our guarantee covers our work.
