FAQ

Will we lose existing SEO?

Not if we migrate properly: 301 redirections map, keep top‑performing content, verify in Search Console.

Can we migrate in phases?

Yes, with a “strangler” strategy (priority sections first), useful for large sites or business constraints.

Tight budget?

Launch a core (Home/Services/Contact), plan the next pages and prioritize what generates leads.

How long does a redesign take?

2–6 weeks depending on scope/content readiness. We set a realistic plan at kick‑off.

Keep the existing CMS?

Possible, but sometimes counter‑productive. We assess tech debt first.
