Upgrades & migrations

On WordPress or Wix?
We'll make it fly.

If your current site is slow, clunky or a pain to update, we rebuild it in Next.js with a migration plan tailored to your current content and URLs. The goal is a leaner site that is easier to maintain, faster to use and structured cleanly for search.

  • We plan around the content, URLs and search visibility you already have
  • Built for fast delivery and strong Core Web Vitals
  • SEO built in: clean markup, schema, sitemaps and metadata
  • No plugins to break and no security patches to chase
  • You own it outright — no locked-in page builder or monthly fees
