Website Redesign Without Losing SEO: A Migration Checklist

A migration checklist covering URLs, redirects, metadata, internal links, sitemaps and Search Console.

The principle

Content and engineering should serve a clear commercial intent. Start by understanding the search need, then build a fast, crawlable page and measure it through Search Console and Analytics.

What to review

• Page structure and headings
• Mobile performance and Core Web Vitals
• Internal linking and canonicals
• Schema and structured data
• Original value compared with competing pages

Improving these foundations consistently is more valuable than publishing large volumes of generic content.
