WordPress to Astro Migration

Will I lose my SEO rankings migrating from WordPress to Astro?

No. I build a complete 301 redirect map from every old WordPress URL to its new Astro path, preserve titles, meta descriptions, canonical tags, and structured data, and ship a matching sitemap. Google sees the same content at the same (or faster) URLs. Rankings typically hold or improve as page speed and Core Web Vitals jump into the green.

What happens to my existing posts, pages, and media?

Everything is migrated. Posts and pages are exported and converted into Astro content collections (Markdown/MDX), and images and media are pulled in and optimized — no manual re-entry, no copy-paste. Categories, tags, dates, and author info are carried over so the site structure stays intact.

Can I still edit content without touching code?

Yes. You can keep editing in WordPress headless (Astro pulls content via the API), or move to a Git-based CMS like Decap, Keystatic, or TinaCMS, or just edit Markdown content collections directly. We pick the option that matches how non-technical your team is — you are never forced into code.

How long does a WordPress to Astro migration take?

A typical blog or brochure site (up to ~50 pages) takes 1–2 weeks. Larger sites with custom post types, hundreds of posts, or e-commerce take 3–6 weeks. You get a fixed timeline and milestones in the proposal before any work starts.

What about my contact forms, search, and plugins?

Each plugin-driven feature is replaced with a modern equivalent: forms via a serverless endpoint or form service, search via a static index (Pagefind) or hosted search, comments via a lightweight service — or kept by calling existing APIs. You lose the plugin bloat and PHP, not the functionality.
