Website, database and cloud migrations

Website, database and cloud migrations without the risk

Website, database and cloud migrations: questions and answers

Will I lose my Google rankings when I move my website?

Not if the move is planned properly. We redirect every old URL to its new page and check indexing in Search Console afterwards.

Can you migrate email as well?

Yes. We can move domains and help move email to providers such as Google Workspace.

Have you migrated live systems before?

Yes. We have moved our own live websites and applications between servers and onto shared cloud infrastructure, cutting hosting costs while keeping them online.
