WordPress Migration Services

WordPress rewards good hygiene and punishes neglect. Most sites we inherit have years of plugin sprawl, a page builder the original developer chose and left behind, and a hosting setup that was never right-sized for the traffic it gets today. Our WordPress Migration Services ensure your marketing team gets improved workflows, and your IT team has a trusted partner.

    Alliance Interactive has spent more than twenty years building and migrating WordPress sites for organizations that cannot afford a broken launch. That work goes beyond migration itself. Our WordPress Development team picks up every migration once it lands, so the site you get on day one keeps improving instead of quietly decaying the way most WordPress installs do.

    WordPress migration services
    we offer

    A WordPress migration is rarely a straight lift and shift. It is an opportunity to remove what has been slowing the site down for years. We start with a full audit of your plugins, theme, content types, and hosting environment, then build a migration plan around what should move as-is, what should be rebuilt clean, and what should be retired.

    B2B Website Design

    Discovery and Migration Strategy

    We inventory every plugin, custom field, content type, and integration before writing a single line of the migration plan. Marketing gets a clear picture of what changes for editors. IT gets a plan for hosting, security, and rollback that holds up under scrutiny.

    Social Marketing

    Plugin, Theme and Page Builder Audit

    Page builders like Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery create output that is difficult to maintain and often difficult to move. We assess whether existing page templates can migrate cleanly or need to be rebuilt in native Gutenberg blocks or a custom theme, and we flag any plugin that is abandoned, insecure, or simply redundant.

    SEO Optimization

    Content, Media and Database Migration

    Posts, pages, custom post types, ACF fields, media libraries, and user accounts move with their relationships intact, not just their raw text. We validate the migrated database against the original before anything goes live, so nothing quietly drops during the move.

    Landing Page Design

    Hosting and Security Hardening

    Many WordPress migrations start with a hosting problem: shared hosting that cannot handle traffic, or a server nobody has patched in years. We move sites onto managed WordPress hosting suited to their scale, harden the install against the vulnerabilities that make WordPress a common target, and set up a real backup and staging workflow going forward.

    Multisite Consolidation

    Organizations running several WordPress installs for different departments or properties often end up with duplicated infrastructure and inconsistent security. We consolidate these into a well-structured multisite network, or split an overloaded multisite apart, depending on which structure actually fits how your teams work.

    Email Marketing

    SEO, URL and Redirect Architecture

    Every existing URL is mapped to its new address, metadata and schema are preserved, and XML sitemaps are rebuilt against the new structure. This is the step that protects the organic traffic you have already earned.

    End-to-end WordPress migration capabilities

    Content and Database Migration

    Posts, pages, custom post types, taxonomies, and media move with full fidelity, validated against the original site before launch.

    URL Mapping and 301 Redirect Strategy

    Every legacy URL is mapped to its new destination and tested at scale, protecting search rankings through the cutover.

    Plugin and Page Builder Cleanup

    Abandoned, insecure, or redundant plugins are removed. Page builder output is rebuilt in Gutenberg or a custom theme where it improves long-term maintainability.

    Custom Post Type and ACF Field Migration

    Structured content built with ACF or custom post types is mapped field by field, so editorial workflows do not break on day one.

    Managed Hosting Migration and Setup

    Sites move onto hosting sized correctly for their traffic and content, with staging environments and backups configured from the start.

    WooCommerce Data and Payment Continuity

    Product catalogs, customer records, and order history migrate intact, with payment gateway configurations validated before the store goes live.

    Multisite Consolidation

    Multiple WordPress installs are consolidated into a single, well-governed multisite network, or separated where a shared structure no longer fits.

    Post-Launch QA and Monitoring

    Structured QA runs against the original site after cutover, with crawl and indexing monitored in Search Console during the weeks that follow.

    Who we move

    Our WordPress migration work spans nonprofits, associations, higher education institutions, and faith-based organizations, many running content-heavy sites with editorial teams who cannot afford downtime or a confusing new backend. We plan around those constraints from the start.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can you migrate our site to WordPress from any platform?

    Yes. We regularly move sites from Drupal, Shopify, Wix, and Squarespace onto WordPress, along with WordPress-to-WordPress migrations for organizations moving off outdated hosting or a page builder that has become unmanageable.

    Will there be downtime during the migration?

    Most migrations run in a parallel environment while your current site stays live. Content is synced and validated repeatedly before cutover, so the final switch happens during a brief, planned window rather than an extended outage.

    What happens to our existing plugins and page builder content?

    We assess each plugin individually. Some migrate cleanly. Others are abandoned or insecure and get replaced. Page builder content is either migrated as-is or rebuilt natively in Gutenberg, depending on what serves long-term maintainability.

    Will our search rankings survive the move?

    Every existing URL is mapped to its new destination, metadata and schema are preserved, and we monitor Search Console closely after launch to catch anything that needs adjustment.

    Can you migrate a WooCommerce store?

    Yes. Product catalogs, customer records, order history, and payment gateway configurations move with full fidelity, and we validate the checkout flow before the store goes live.

    Do you help with hosting?

    Yes. We recommend and coordinate managed WordPress hosting sized to your traffic and content, and set up staging and backup workflows as part of the migration.

    How long does a typical WordPress migration take?

    A straightforward site with a clean content model can move in a few weeks. A larger multisite network or a heavily customized build with a page builder rebuild runs longer. We scope this precisely during discovery.

    Do you provide support after the migration is complete?

    Yes. Post-launch QA, Search Console monitoring, and performance tuning are part of every engagement, and our website maintenance team continues core, plugin, and security updates once you are live.

    Can you consolidate multiple WordPress sites into one multisite network?

    Yes. We assess whether a shared multisite structure or separate installs better fit how your teams manage content and permissions, then build accordingly.

    Will our SEO plugin data carry over?

    Yes. Metadata, focus keywords, and structured data configured in Yoast or Rank Math are mapped into the new site’s SEO fields as part of the content migration, so the optimization work you have already done is not lost.

    Do we get a staging environment to review the site before launch?

    Yes. Every migration is built and reviewed in a staging environment first. Your team gets a chance to test content, workflows, and functionality before we schedule the cutover.

    How is pricing structured for a WordPress migration?

    We provide fixed-scope pricing once discovery is complete, or phased pricing when the scope includes real unknowns, such as extensive custom development. No change orders proceed without your approval.
