What it's about

Why companies switch from WordPress to Webflow.

Most migration inquiries start with the same sentence: the website has grown over the years, every update is a risk and small changes take too long. On top of that come slow loading times caused by themes, page builders and plugins.

Webflow solves exactly these issues. The platform takes care of hosting, security and performance, your team edits content in the editor and the design is no longer tied to a theme. What matters is that nothing built up over the years gets lost in the move: content, rankings and backlinks.

What gets carried over in the move

Pages, blog articles, categories, images, meta data, alt texts, forms and the URL structure. Where it makes sense, we clean up along the way and merge duplicate or outdated content.

Benefits

Process

How the migration works.

Five steps to make sure your move succeeds safely and without surprises.

Audit

We crawl your current website and record every URL, all content, rankings, backlinks and forms. That way we know exactly what needs to move and what can go.

Structure & concept

We reorganize content where it makes sense and plan the new page structure. Every old URL gets a clear destination.

Design & build

Your website is built in Webflow: custom design, CMS collections for blog, case studies or jobs, clean classes following Client-First.

Content transfer

Copy, images, meta data and alt texts are transferred in a structured way, blog articles and lists imported directly into the CMS.

Launch & SEO protection

301 redirects, sitemap, Search Console and tracking are live on launch day. After that, we keep a close eye on rankings and error pages.

Classification

When switching is worth it and when it isn't.

The move is worth it if

  • updates and maintenance regularly cost time and nerves
  • the site is slow and the design is hitting its limits
  • your marketing team wants to publish content faster on its own

Better stay with WordPress if

  • your business runs on a large WooCommerce store
  • you depend on plugins that have no solution in Webflow
  • your own hosting is strictly required

FAQs

Not if the migration is planned properly. We carry over content and meta data, redirect every old URL to the matching new page via 301 redirect and check Search Console and error pages after launch. Short fluctuations are normal, the foundation stays intact.

That mainly depends on the number of pages and the amount of content, and on whether we redesign. After the audit, you get a clear timeline with milestones.

The effort depends on scope, design and features. After a short initial consultation and a look at your current site, you get a transparent quote.

Yes. You edit copy, images and CMS content in the Webflow Editor right on the page. At handover, we walk you through everything in a short training session.

Yes. We import blog articles, categories and images into the Webflow CMS in a structured way. Then we check formatting and links.
