Move critical websites and applications without losing what already works.
We plan and execute platform, hosting, domain and data migrations with clear inventories, test environments, redirect mapping and controlled release procedures.
Website migration services and WordPress to React migration
Choose Platform Migrations & Modernisation when an existing website, application, domain, host or database must move with a controlled cutover. Choose Cloud Architecture for the target environment and DevOps for the ongoing release workflow.

Understand the current system first
A migration begins with an inventory of content, data, integrations, URLs, scheduled processes, user roles and infrastructure. This reveals what must move unchanged, what needs rebuilding and what can be retired instead of carrying avoidable complexity forward.
WordPress-to-modern-stack transitions
We can separate a business from an ageing theme or plugin-heavy implementation while preserving its design language, content and essential behaviour. The destination may be React, a headless architecture, a cleaner WordPress build or another maintainable platform.
Hosting, server and domain migrations
Moving an application involves databases, environment configuration, mail dependencies, DNS, TLS, storage, scheduled jobs, redirects, third-party callbacks and rollback procedures. Cutover timing and ownership are agreed before live changes begin.
Data, integrations and SEO continuity
We map source and destination structures, validate representative records and test CRM, payment, authentication and operational integrations. URL mapping, canonical tags, sitemaps, internal links and one-hop redirects help search engines understand a domain or platform move.
Modernise selectively
Migration is an opportunity to remove unsupported dependencies, improve deployment and simplify maintenance, but a complete rewrite is not always justified. We prioritise changes that reduce risk or create clear operational value.
How we work
We document the current system, map destination requirements, build the target environment, rehearse critical transfers, perform the controlled cutover and validate URLs, data, integrations and monitoring after launch.

Frequently asked questions
Will a migration affect SEO?
Any major domain, URL or platform change carries risk. A complete URL inventory, direct redirects, preserved metadata and post-launch monitoring help search engines process the transition.
Can you migrate email as part of a domain move?
Email requirements are identified separately from the website. We can coordinate relevant DNS records and migration steps, but the process depends on the mail provider and account scope.
Do we need to rebuild everything?
Not necessarily. We assess which components remain sound and which create risk or block future development. A phased modernisation may be more appropriate than a complete rewrite.
How is downtime handled?
We prepare and validate the destination in advance, define a cutover window and plan how data changes during the transition will be handled.
Can you migrate a database between different technologies?
Yes, when source and destination structures can be mapped reliably. Transformation, validation and application compatibility are planned as part of the migration.
