Frequently Asked Questions About WordPress Site Migration
How long does a WordPress site migration take?
The migration time depends on the size of the site, the size of the database and the access speed of the old server. After a preliminary review, we share a clear timeline specific to your site and complete the migration according to this plan without affecting the live site.
Will my SEO rankings drop when migrating the site?
A properly executed migration causes no ranking loss. We keep the URL structure exactly the same; if the domain changes, we link all old addresses to the new ones with 301 redirects, submit a change of address notice in Google Search Console and resubmit the sitemap.
Will my site go down during the migration?
No. We first set up and test the site on the new server; the live site keeps running during this process. In the final step, only the DNS records are updated. During DNS propagation, visitors may land on either the old or the new server, but since both servers are running, there is no downtime.
How long does DNS propagation take?
Worldwide propagation of DNS changes is usually completed within a few hours and can take up to 24–48 hours at most. We shorten this time by lowering the TTL value before the migration.
Will my emails be affected by the migration?
If your emails are on your current hosting, we also migrate the MX records and mailboxes in a planned way. If you use Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, we don't touch the MX records; only the website is moved and the email flow isn't interrupted.
Can you migrate my WooCommerce site without losing orders?
Yes. We perform WooCommerce migrations during low-traffic hours and apply a brief maintenance mode during the final database sync. This way, no order, customer or stock data received during the migration is lost.
How is the price of a WordPress site migration determined?
The migration fee is determined by quote. The price depends on the site's size, WooCommerce usage, the need for email migration and whether there is a domain change. After reviewing your site, we provide a quote with the scope and a firm price. Site migration is free for clients who move to BCU Digital's WordPress hosting service.
What happens if a problem occurs after the migration?
We take a full backup of the site before the migration, so we can quickly restore the site to its previous state if any problem occurs. We continue to provide support after the migration and fix any errors caused by the migration at no extra charge.
