Getting a new website can be a daunting process whether you have previously invested in SEO or not. However, extra care must be taken when migrating over to a new website in order to preserve any of the hard work previously completed and maintain existing performance.
Our SEO Setup services are all about laying the foundations for achieving ranking success with your new website as well as taking care to maintain all the good stuff from your current website.
It is not as simple as just turning on the new website and switching off the old one – the structure and the build must be right, link mapping needs to be undertaken, content needs to be migrated and your backlink profile may need attention.
Whether you have a website ready to go live and want some guidance and migration support, or whether you are right at the start of your journey to a new website, we can help.
This service is completely bespoke to you so the tasks that we complete varies on a site by site basis depending on your situation. Below is a breakdown of what will typically be included.
Any changes to structure could mean changes to your URLs. To avoid this creating ‘dead-ends’ for your users, any changing links or links which will no longer exist need attention.
We will crawl your website and create a full plan of action to ensure you don’t lose any visitors or SEO value of your pages.
Even if you have an SEO strategy in place, it is still worth conducting some fresh keyword research to identify the ideal focus topic for each of your pages – which is in turn what you hope it will rank for.
This is typically undertaken using a number of advanced keyword exploration tools.
Whether you have created fresh content or are migrating content from your old site – we can work to optimise your content to ensure it effectively covers the keywords and topics you are targeting.
Great content is fundamental to high ranking pages.
Maintaining your page and conversion tracking from your old site to new is essential for ensuring no down time in monitoring results.
Using Google Tag Manager we will migrate your tracking and set up more detailed tracking if required.
Once the website has been designed and built, but before go live, we can support with all of the technical optimisations which need implementing across the site.
For example – meta information, sitemap, robots.txt, alt & header tags.
The proof is in the pudding – once the site is live we will run through a tried and tested post go live check to ensure everything is working as it should be.
We’ll also review any crawling and indexing behaviour as required.
