Today, I want to discuss the process of website conversion, which involves moving an existing website to a new backend or platform. This is a common approach for clients with high-quality designs who experience issues with their content management system, functionality, performance, or security. In such cases, we often recommend converting the site to a newer version of WordPress, our recommended platform.
One of the major benefits of website conversion is that it can save costs compared to starting from scratch, especially if the site already has a nice design and the issues are platform-related. However, if the goal is to upgrade the design, we recommend a website redesign project with UX strategy and new design mockups instead.
Converting to WordPress can resolve most platform-related issues while preserving the quality and aesthetics of the original design. This is especially true with newer versions of WordPress, which offer numerous advantages over other platforms like Joomla and Drupal.
Occasionally, a project may involve a WordPress to WordPress conversion with the goal of rebuilding the site with more user-friendly tools. This may be necessary if the original site was not built correctly or securely, or if it is difficult to manage or maintain.
If you are experiencing issues with your website, it may be worth considering a website conversion to WordPress. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about this process. We are here to help.
