WordPress Migration

Move your website to a new host or domain with zero data loss and no downtime.

Stress-free WordPress migration

Moving a website can go wrong in many ways: broken images, lost emails, mixed-content SSL errors or a sudden drop in Google traffic. My WordPress migration service moves everything carefully and tests it before your visitors ever notice.

Migrations I handle

  • New hosting — shared, cPanel, VPS or cloud servers, including moves to faster Kenyan or international hosts.
  • New domain — rebrands with full 301 redirects so you keep your rankings.
  • HTTP to HTTPS — SSL installed and all links updated.
  • Staging to live — launching a new build without breaking the existing site.
  • Platform changes — Wix, Squarespace or Blogger to WordPress, or WordPress to a custom system.

What’s included

Full backup, files and database transfer, URL and serialized-data replacement, email account and DNS guidance, SSL setup, redirect mapping, a full site test (forms, checkout, logins) and a final check in Google Search Console. I schedule the DNS switch for a quiet time so there is effectively no downtime.

Need hosting too? See web hosting in Kenya and domain registration. Or send me your current and new host details for a quote.

Frequently asked questions

No. I copy and test the site on the new server first, then switch DNS. Visitors keep seeing the old site until the new one is ready.
I check where your email is hosted and make sure MX records and accounts are recreated or kept, so you don’t lose messages.
A domain change always needs care. With page-to-page 301 redirects and Search Console’s change-of-address tool, rankings usually recover within weeks.
Yes. Products, orders, customers, subscriptions and settings all move with the database, and I test checkout and payments after the move.
