Platform Migration Guides

Every platform switch has blind spots. These guides show you what to verify before you launch - so you don't lose rankings, content, or functionality in the move.

Choose your migration path

Pick the guide that matches where you're coming from. Each one covers the specific pitfalls of that platform and what MigrateKit checks.

Wix to WordPress

Wix locks you into its ecosystem. When you move to WordPress, you lose Wix's SEO defaults and need to recreate them manually. The migration guide covers titles, meta descriptions, 301 redirects, and the image URL changes that break links across the site.

Squarespace to Next.js

Squarespace generates clean HTML but wraps it in its own structure. Moving to Next.js means rebuilding from scratch - and the content, structured data, and Open Graph tags rarely survive intact.

GoDaddy Builder to Webflow

GoDaddy's website builder is basic, so the SEO and structured data are often minimal or missing entirely. When you rebuild in Webflow, it is tempting to improve everything at once, and that is where tags and content get lost.

WordPress to Headless CMS

WordPress has years of accumulated SEO data - Yoast settings, custom fields, structured data. Moving to a headless setup (Next.js, Nuxt, Astro) means porting all of that manually, and anything you forget costs traffic.

Squarespace to WordPress

Squarespace uses its own URL structure. WordPress uses a different one. If you don't set up redirects, every link your existing visitors and search engines know breaks on day one.

What breaks in a platform migration

Every platform migration follows the same pattern: the new site goes live, the client is happy, and then traffic starts dropping because meta descriptions disappeared, structured data broke, or images lost their alt text. MigrateKit catches these issues before launch.
