The Problem

Why WordPress is holding you back

Seven years of WordPress maintenance adds up. Security updates, plugin conflicts, database bloat, and developer dependency compound every day.

Endless Security Vulnerabilities

97% of WordPress breaches target plugins. Every plugin is an attack surface you're responsible for patching.

Poor Core Web Vitals

Theme bloat, render-blocking scripts, and unoptimised databases tank your PageSpeed scores and hurt organic rankings.

Constant Developer Dependency

Marketing teams can't ship landing pages without involving dev. Every content tweak becomes a ticket in a backlog.

Hidden Maintenance Costs

Hosting, security monitoring, plugin licences, developer time. Forrester puts average savings at $850K per organisation after switching.

Tech Debt That Compounds

Years of theme child-files, abandoned plugins, and manual tweaks create fragile infrastructure that breaks on every major update.

Invisible to AI Search

WordPress's bloated code makes it hard for AI systems to crawl and cite your content costing you traffic before a single visitor lands on your site.
The Solution

The Webflow advantage

No plugins. No vulnerabilities. No developer dependency for content updates. Clean HTML5, global CDN, and a CMS your team actually wants to use.

Built-in Performance

Clean HTML5, global CDN, automatic optimisation. Core Web Vitals improve without configuration.

Zero Plugin Attack Surface

No plugins, no vulnerabilities. Enterprise SSL, 2FA, and DDoS protection included.

Design Without Limits

Pixel-perfect control. Animations and layouts that would require custom dev on WordPress are visual in Webflow.

Team Autonomy

Marketing and content teams publish pages independently. No dev tickets, no broken templates.

Managed Infrastructure

Hosting, CDN, SSL, and updates handled by Webflow. Your team focuses on growth, not maintenance.

SEO-Safe Migration No Rankings Lost

Proper heading hierarchy, automatic sitemaps, fast load times, and editable metadata out of the box.

Discovery & Audit

Full site inventory, SEO baseline from Google Search Console, content mapping, and redirect plan before a single line is built.

04

SEO Preservation

Every 301 redirect mapped and implemented. Metadata audited page by page. Structured data, canonical tags, and sitemap verified.

05

Launch & Monitor

Staged go-live with crawl validation. 90-day monitoring of Core Web Vitals, rankings, and 404 errors post-launch.

Case Study

MapCosmos: WordPress sales site migrated to Webflow

MapCosmos is an interactive mapping SaaS product. Their marketing and sales website was running on WordPress, slow load times hurting conversions, Core Web Vitals failing, and the team couldn't update a page without going through a developer.
The goal was clear: migrate the WordPress marketing site to Webflow, keep every organic ranking intact, and hand the team a CMS they could actually use independently.tex
Every page was rebuilt in Webflow using Client-First methodology. Complete redirect map implemented before DNS cutover. Rankings monitored for 90 days post-launch.

Common questions

Migration raises real concerns. Here are the honest answers

Will my SEO rankings drop after migration?

No, if the migration is handled correctly. A ranking drop is always caused by missed redirects, lost metadata, or changed URL structures. My process includes a full pre-migration SEO audit, a complete 301 redirect map for every URL, metadata migration for every page, and 90 days of post-launch monitoring.

How long does a migration take?

Timelines depend on site size and complexity. Smaller sites (up to 8 pages) are typically 2–3 weeks. Larger sites with CMS content are 4–6 weeks. Enterprise projects are scoped individually. Timeline is agreed and fixed before work begins.

What happens to functionality that depends on WordPress plugins?

This is covered in the discovery audit before quoting. Most common plugin functionality has a direct Webflow-native equivalent. More complex requirements are documented before the project starts and either handled via custom code or flagged as out of scope.

Do I need to buy a Webflow subscription separately?

Yes. The project fee covers the build and migration work. You will need a Webflow site plan to host the site. I recommend the right plan based on your requirements.

Can my team edit the site after migration?

Yes. That is one of the primary benefits. Every project includes CMS setup structured around your content workflow so your team can publish without touching code.

Do you offer ongoing support after launch?

Yes. In addition to the 90-day monitoring, I offer monthly retainers for ongoing development, new sections, and CMS support.

How much does a WordPress to Webflow migration cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your site, the complexity of your content, and what needs to be rebuilt in Webflow. Most migrations include a full Client-First build, CMS setup, and content transfer, so the investment reflects a complete, production-ready website, not just a visual copy.
