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.
