To protect rankings, you map every URL, set 301 redirects where paths change, keep your metadata, and monitor Search Console after launch.

Our team makes the decisions and stands behind the work. - hyperAI Why move ## Why teams move from WordPress to Webflow. - 01 ### Structured content that scales Webflow CMS collections and references suit sites with many posts, case studies or resource pages. - 02 ### Visual editing with control Designers build with fine control of layout, and editors update content without touching the design. - 03 ### Fewer moving parts Hosting, SSL and security are handled by Webflow, so there are no plugin or core updates to keep up with. - 04 ### Roles for larger teams Several people can edit and publish with roles, which suits marketing teams that share the site. What moves ## What carries over, and how. | Pages | Rebuilt in Webflow on a documented class system, with reusable sections your team can assemble into new pages. | | -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Blog posts and custom post types | Exported and imported into Webflow CMS collections, with categories, tags and authors set up as reference fields. | | Images and media | Moved from the media library into Webflow's asset manager, optimised, with alt text carried over. | | URLs and redirects | Every URL is inventoried. Slugs are kept where possible, and changed paths get 301 redirects in Webflow's hosting settings. | | Forms | Rebuilt as Webflow forms or connected to your CRM, with notifications and spam protection tested. | | SEO metadata | Titles, descriptions and Open Graph settings carried over, with CMS templates generating metadata for posts. | | Analytics and integrations | Analytics, tag manager and other scripts added through Webflow's custom code settings and verified 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 site, list every indexed URL and post type, and note which pages bring traffic and links. 2. 02 ### Content model We design Webflow CMS collections and references around how you publish, and decide what each plugin's job becomes. 3. 03 ### Design and build We build the site in Webflow with a clean, documented class system so it stays tidy as it grows. 4. 04 ### Content migration Posts, pages and media are imported, then checked for formatting, embeds, internal links and images. 5. 05 ### Redirects and QA We load and test the 301 redirect map, and check metadata, forms, responsive layouts and page speed. 6. 06 ### Launch and monitoring We connect the domain, submit the sitemap, and watch Search Console for crawl errors and 404s 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 possible - Carry over page titles and meta descriptions - Check canonical URLs on pages and CMS templates - Publish the sitemap and review robots settings - Add structured data for articles, FAQs and the organisation - Update internal links to final URLs - Keep image alt text on every migrated image - Monitor Search Console for coverage and ranking changes - Track and fix 404s after launch ### Risks we plan for - Some plugins have no Webflow equivalent. Memberships, advanced search or complex e-commerce may need a third-party service or custom code. - Webflow CMS has collection and field limits, so very large or deeply nested WordPress sites need careful planning. - Rankings can fluctuate for a short time while search engines recrawl, even with redirects in place. - A short content freeze near launch keeps new WordPress posts from being missed during the move. FAQ ## Questions Ask anything else Reading our answers… - How much does a WordPress to Webflow migration cost? Gr8r projects start from $8,000\. The final price depends on page count, CMS structure 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. - Can our custom post types move to Webflow? Usually, yes. Each post type becomes a CMS collection, and relationships between them become reference fields. ## Related. - [ vs Webflow vs WordPressChoose Webflow if you want a visually built marketing site with a structured CMS, hosting included and far less plugin and update upkeep.
