Squarespace to WordPress migration agency

WordPress may suit requirements your current setup cannot comfortably meet. Before moving, compare the added flexibility with the hosting, maintenance and rebuilding work it involves.

Move beyond Squarespace with a WordPress rebuild that accounts for the whole website

Everything else is logistics. What decides whether you keep your traffic is whether every old Squarespace URL arrives somewhere sensible on the day the switch happens.

Moving From Squarespace To WordPress

The standard migration process, plus the things specific to this pair.

  • Greater choice in the build

    WordPress gives you different options for hosting, editing and extending the site. Those choices bring their own costs and upkeep.

  • Content that needs separate attention

    The supported export covers only certain content. Layouts and unsupported features need reviewing individually rather than assuming the export completes the move.

  • Changed page addresses

    Compare the intended WordPress URLs with existing addresses. Retain suitable URLs where practical and plan relevant redirects for those that change.

  • A baseline first

    Rankings, traffic and conversions recorded before anything moves, so afterwards there is something honest to compare against.

  • Redirects live at cutover

    Not the day after. The redirect table ships with the site and the important URLs are checked by hand within the hour.

  • Watched for eight weeks

    Crawl errors, ranking movement and 404s monitored after launch, because migration problems surface over weeks rather than on the day.

Planning the Squarespace content transfer

Squarespace exports certain content in a format WordPress can import. That is a useful starting point, but it does not transfer every feature or recreate the finished design. Check the specific pages, blocks and collections in use.

Compare the imported content with the original and review media, formatting and URLs. Keep the old site available until the necessary checks and records are complete.

Squarespace To WordPress Questions

  • Does the Squarespace export work?

    It can transfer supported content, but it is not a complete website migration. Verify the current export rules and check the imported result against the source.

  • Can we keep the design?

    A similar visual direction may be achievable through a new WordPress build. Exact matches and changes need agreeing in the design scope, including any third-party assets or features.

  • What happens to our Squarespace subscription?

    Plan cancellation only after the content, domain and any related services have been accounted for.
