Kumail Hemani says, “A site migration takes place when a website is re-vamped from some reason. This could be a new design or adopting a new CMS.

It is sometimes more complicated than it looks depending on the size of the website.

Site migrations come with a lot of risks which can potentially cause your business to lose revenue while the problem is fixed.

Common problems include:

  • Loss of current traffic.
  • Page errors (404’s).
  • Drop in search rankings.

I’ve been involved in several critical site migrations of large scale websites.

We recently worked on a university website and as per their requirements we had to provide a month-on-month action plan that we would perform while they developed the website“.
