SEO for website redesign and migration works by planning ahead of the changes, keeping search engines in the know about what you’re doing.
● Site Audit: We analyze current and future content, mapping, coding, backlink profile and keyword density so that we can flag all potential issues and strengths. This helps us create a suite of SEO tactics and also helps you avoid fatal errors in design. We continue auditing through the process, always fine-tuning your migration.
● Google Search Console: We use every tool available to prepare search engines for the coming changes and to even improve how well they recognize your site.
● 404 Redirecting: We protect all of your content, making sure that your new site map doesn’t drop any legacy content.
● Internal Link Management: Just as 404 redirects protect links that appear in search engine results, internal links need to lead to the right content. We scour your site and maintain the integrity of its internal links.
