When every update is a riskWordPress Migration

MOVE BEYONDWORDPRESS

Plugin conflicts, security vulnerabilities, load times over four seconds. We migrate your content to a system that stays fast and needs no ongoing plugin maintenance.

Starting point

Your WordPress siteis slowing your business

Sporadic content updates, postponed plugin updates, a theme that is no longer current. Every change feels risky. Sound familiar?

Load time is over 4 seconds. Mobile visitors bounce, Google ranks faster competitors higher.

Relaunching on WordPress might offer temporary relief, but rarely solves the underlying issues. The smarter alternative: a fresh start on an architecture designed for zero maintenance headaches.

The problem

Why WordPressis no longer enough

Slow

Load time over 4 seconds. More than half of mobile visitors leave before the page has loaded.

Insecure

Outdated plugins with known security vulnerabilities. Every update carries the risk of breaking the site.

Inflexible

Every change needs a developer. The CMS is cumbersome, the design barely customizable.

Maintenance-heavy

Plugin updates, PHP updates, server maintenance. Monthly costs for a system that still causes problems.

Common questions

Questions beforethe migration

What does a WordPress relaunch cost?

CHF 8,000 to 25,000. A straightforward company website with CMS starts at CHF 8,000. A website with multiple languages, forms and system integrations ranges from CHF 15,000 to 25,000.

Will I lose my SEO rankings?

No. We set up 301 redirects for every old URL. Google recognizes the redirect and transfers ranking signals to the new page. In the first 2 to 4 weeks there may be minimal fluctuations.

How long does the migration take?

6 to 10 weeks. During this time your old WordPress site continues running normally. The new site is developed and tested in parallel.

Can I still manage content myself?

Yes. With Sanity CMS you manage texts, images and pages yourself. The interface is more modern and easier than WordPress. No plugin updates, no compatibility issues.

What happens to my existing forms?

All forms are migrated and continue working as before. Contact requests, newsletter signups and contact forms are preserved.

Is the new site faster?

Yes. Typical: from over four seconds load time to under one second. Astro generates static pages, Cloudflare delivers them globally. Typical Lighthouse score above 90.

Why not modernize WordPress instead?

Modernizing WordPress means: new theme, plugin review, PHP upgrade, server migration. That costs roughly the same as a rebuild and often delivers the same problems again a few years later. In certain cases a WordPress relaunch makes sense, though.
