Source: https://gr8rstudio.com/migrations/wordpress-to-framer Migrations # WordPress to Framer Migration: How to Move Without Losing SEO A WordPress to Framer migration means rebuilding your pages as editable Framer components, moving posts into Framer CMS collections, and recreating forms and integrations. To protect rankings, you map every existing URL, set 301 redirects for any that change, carry over titles, descriptions and alt text, and watch Search Console after launch.

Our team makes the decisions and stands behind the work. - hyperAI Why move ## Why teams move from WordPress to Framer. - 01 ### Your team edits visually Marketing can change pages, launch landing pages and publish posts without waiting on a developer or a theme. - 02 ### Less to maintain No plugin updates, PHP versions or security patches to manage. Hosting and SSL come with Framer. - 03 ### Design and motion in one place Layout, responsive breakpoints and animation live in the same tool, so the site matches the design you approved. - 04 ### A simpler stack For a marketing site, you trade a theme plus many plugins for one tool that covers pages, CMS, forms and SEO settings. What moves ## What carries over, and how. | Pages | Rebuilt in Framer as reusable components, so your team can edit text and images and assemble new pages from the same sections. | | -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Blog posts and CMS content | Exported from WordPress and imported into Framer CMS collections, with authors, categories and dates mapped to fields. | | Images and media | Downloaded from the media library, optimised and re-uploaded, keeping file names and alt text where they are useful. | | URLs and redirects | Every URL is inventoried. Slugs are kept where Framer allows, and anything that changes gets a 301 redirect in Framer's settings. | | Forms | Rebuilt with Framer forms or connected to your existing tool, such as HubSpot, so submissions still reach the right inbox or CRM. | | SEO metadata | Page titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph images and canonical settings carried over from your SEO plugin, page by page. | | Analytics and integrations | Analytics, tag manager, cookie consent and chat tools reinstalled through Framer's custom code settings and checked after launch. | How it runs ## Six steps, in order. Each step ends with a check you can see, so nothing reaches launch unverified. 1. 01 ### Audit and URL inventory We crawl the current site, list every indexed URL, and note which pages bring traffic and links so nothing important gets lost. 2. 02 ### Content model We plan Framer CMS collections for posts and other repeating content, and decide which plugins need a replacement or can go. 3. 03 ### Design and build We build the site in Framer as editable components, either matching your current design or moving to a new one. 4. 04 ### Content migration Posts, pages and media are imported and checked for formatting, embeds, links and images. 5. 05 ### Redirects and QA We set 301 redirects from the URL map, test them, and check metadata, forms, mobile layouts and page speed before launch. 6. 06 ### Launch and monitoring We switch the domain, submit the new sitemap, and watch Search Console for crawl errors and 404s in the weeks after launch. SEO protection ## The checklist that protects your rankings. - A 301 redirect map from every old URL to its new one - Keep existing slugs wherever Framer allows - Carry over page titles and meta descriptions - Set canonical URLs on every page - Publish an up-to-date sitemap and check robots settings - Add structured data for articles, FAQs and the organisation - Update internal links to point at final URLs, not redirects - Keep image alt text and descriptive file names - Monitor Search Console for coverage and ranking changes - Track and fix 404s after launch ### Risks we plan for - Some WordPress plugins have no Framer equivalent. Memberships, complex search or e-commerce may need a third-party tool or a different platform. - WordPress date-based or nested URL patterns may not map one to one onto Framer CMS paths, so more URLs may need redirects. - Rankings can fluctuate for a short time while search engines recrawl the new site, even with redirects in place. - Content usually needs a short freeze near the end, so posts published on WordPress during the move are not missed. FAQ ## Questions Ask anything else Reading our answers… - How much does a WordPress to Framer migration cost? Gr8r projects start from $8,000\. The final price depends on page count, CMS content and integrations, and is agreed after scoping, before work starts. - How long does it take? It depends on how many pages you have and how complex the content is. We agree the timeline with you before work starts. - Will we lose our Google rankings? Redirects, preserved metadata and post-launch checks protect your rankings. Some short-term fluctuation can happen while search engines recrawl, which is why we monitor after launch. - Can we keep our blog? Yes. Posts move into Framer CMS collections with their content, images and metadata, and your team publishes new posts from there. ## Related. - [ vs Framer vs WordPressChoose Framer if you want a design-led marketing site your team can edit visually, with hosting included and no plugins to maintain.
