Migrate to WordPress with confidence.

Seamless, low-risk replatforming for modern teams

Replatform to a flexible, future-ready WordPress stack—without losing content integrity, SEO equity or accessibility.

Whether you’re moving from a legacy CMS, a custom build, or an all-in-one website platform, our Melbourne team delivers end-to-end migrations to WordPress. We plan the information architecture, content model and redirects up-front, then execute with scripted migration, rigorous QA and a clear go-live plan. Choose classic WordPress with ACF Blocks, Gutenberg, or go headless with a Next.js front end.
