FAQs

Website migration: your questions answered

Will my website go offline during the move?

No. We build and test on the new platform first, then switch DNS. Visitors move across seamlessly as DNS updates.

Can you move my site off Wix or Squarespace?

Yes. These platforms don't export everything automatically, so we rebuild your pages on a faster platform, carry across your content and set up redirects.

What happens to my email?

Email often depends on the same domain settings as your website. We'll document your existing email setup and make sure it keeps working, or migrate it if you're moving provider too.
