Switch CMS without losing content or traffic.
We move your website from WordPress, Optimizely, Sitevision or another CMS. Your content comes along, old addresses lead to the right place and your editors get a tool that is easy to use.
When do companies switch CMS?
You are rebuilding anyway
A new design or structure is a good time to replace the tool underneath as well.
Your site runs on PHP
After PHP2Shell, many want to move away from PHP. Old plugins that never get updated are also a common way in.
The licence costs too much
Optimizely and Sitevision charge a licence every year. The CMS we build with has no licence fee.
Editors avoid the tool
Publishing takes too long, so content gets stale. We build the editing around how you work.
What a CMS switch includes
Your content moves
We move your content automatically and check that everything came along.
- Pages, articles, images and files
- Authors, categories and tags
- A check of every template after the move
- The old site stays up until launch
Search traffic stays
Every old address leads to the right page, so links and search results keep working.
- Redirects for every old address
- Titles and descriptions come along
- Technical SEO and faster pages
- Traffic follow-up after launch
Editors get going
Content is structured around how you publish, and your editors get a walkthrough before launch.
- Templates for your page types
- Preview before you publish
- Roles and permissions
- Training for your editors
Sites we have moved
Academic Work
A new site and a new CMS for more than six countries. Each country writes its own content, and the most important pages show up far more in search.
Affärsvärlden
From WordPress to a new CMS and a new design. Millions of articles, newswires and press releases moved without the site going down.
Placera
A new site and a new CMS for news, analysis and funds. The whole archive moved with no downtime.
PHP2Shell affected nearly 70% of all websites.
In October 2026 two critical security flaws in PHP, known as PHP2Shell, were patched. They let an attacker run their own code on the server without logging in, and were present in every PHP version from the past ten years. WordPress, Drupal and Joomla run on PHP. Government agencies in several countries took their sites offline until they had updated.
The CMS we build with doesn't use PHP and wasn't affected. No technology is free of security flaws, so with a maintenance plan we keep your new site up to date for you.
