Just make sure Google doesn\u2019t lose your new address.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A properly planned SEO migration is essential to maintain search visibility throughout the transition. Whether you switch <a href=\"https:\/\/accuwebhosting.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">hosting providers<\/a>, change your domain name, move to a different CMS or platform, or redesign your website, every type of <b>website migration<\/b> carries potential risks for SEO.<\/p>\n<p>Our team recently spoke with a business that relaunched its site with a fresh design but failed to update internal links and saw a noticeable traffic drop. From missing redirects to broken pages, even small mistakes can have long-term effects. This blog covers similar SEO errors that are common during various website migrations and how to avoid them to protect your visibility.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cb-h2\" id=\"What-Website-Migration\">What is Website Migration?<\/h2>\n<p>Website migration may involve:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"cb-ul\">\n<li>Moving the website to a <b>new hosting provider<\/b><\/li>\n<li>Switching to a <b>new domain name<\/b><\/li>\n<li>Changing the <b>website platform<\/b> or <b>CMS<\/b> (e.g., from Wix to WordPress)<\/li>\n<li>Implementing <b>HTTPS<\/b> (from HTTP)<\/li>\n<li>Updating the<b> site structure or URLs<\/b><\/li>\n<li>Performing a complete <b>website redesign<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These actions contribute to the overall website migration process and must be managed carefully to avoid negative SEO effects.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cb-h2\" id=\"Critical-SEO\">Critical SEO Mistakes to Avoid During a Website Migration<\/h2>\n<p>Many sites lose rankings after a migration, not because they moved, but because they forgot to take SEO with them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"one_line_tips\">Before we dive in, here\u2019s a crucial reminder: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/how-to-take-full-backup-of-your-hosting-space\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">back up your entire website<\/a><b>.<\/b> This includes your database, content files, redirects, SEO settings, and platform-specific configurations. Having a full backup is your safety net if anything goes wrong during migration.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cb-h3\" id=\"Hosting-Related\">Hosting-Related SEO Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. Downtime or DNS issues<\/b>: Many wonder, <b>\u201cdoes changing hosting affect SEO?\u201d<\/b> The answer is yes\u2014if your site goes offline during the move, Google may consider it <b>unreliable<\/b> and <b>lower<\/b> your rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Always plan the migration during<b> low-traffic hours<\/b>, <b>double-check DN<\/b><strong>S<\/strong> and <b>nameserver<\/b> settings, and keep the old host active until the new site is fully tested. This way, you\u2019ll minimize downtime, preserve your search visibility, and ensure your SEO website migration stays on track.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Slow server speed or distant location<\/b>: A host with slow response times or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/impact-of-server-location-on-website-performance-and-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">servers far from your primary audience<\/a> can hurt<a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/website-speed-affect-seo-rankings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"> page load speed<\/a>, which Google treats as a ranking factor.

Also, update any hard-coded URLs (in sitemaps, analytics, or social profiles) to the new domain.<\/p>\n<p>If you skip this step, Google may keep indexing the old domain or lose track of your site\u2019s authority, hurting your SEO.<\/p>\n<p><b>3. Using relative instead of absolute redirects<\/b>: Some tools only create relative redirects (like \u201c\/new-page\u201d instead of \u201chttps:\/\/newsite.com\/new-page\u201d), which won\u2019t work for a domain change. Always use absolute URLs for your redirects.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, this means the redirect plugin or code must point from http:\/\/oldsite.com\/page directly to https:\/\/newsite.com\/page. This way, all of your old pages correctly <b>land<\/b> on the new site without error.<\/p>\n<p><b>4. Neglecting external links and renewals<\/b>: Remember that links from other sites and profiles still point to your old domain. You can\u2019t update all of them, but do update <b>key places <\/b>(like your Google Business Profile, social accounts, email footer, etc.) with the new domain.<\/p>\n<p>Also, don\u2019t let the old domain expire during migration \u2013 it can reset your SEO gains. Keep the old domain active (with redirects) at least until Google reindexes the new one.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cb-h3\" id=\"Website-Platform\">Website Platform or CMS-Related SEO Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. Losing metadata and SEO settings<\/b>: When moving to a new CMS (e.g., Shopify \u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/web-hosting\/wordpress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">WordPress<\/a>), it\u2019s easy to forget SEO details. Search engines lose critical context if title tags, meta descriptions, image alt text, or schema markup don\u2019t carry over.<\/p>\n<p>Always export or copy these elements from the old site and ensure the new site has them in place. For example, install any SEO plugin (like Yoast or RankMath) on the latest CMS and re-enter your old metadata so you keep your search rankings intact.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Ignoring URL structure changes:<\/b> CMS platforms often use different URL formats (for example, WordPress uses <b>\/category\/ <\/b>or<b> \/tag\/<\/b> in blog URLs). If you switch platforms without planning, your page URLs may change, leading to broken links.<\/p>\n<p><b>3. Skipping backups and testing:<\/b> Always export your <b>metadata<\/b> and <b>plugin<\/b> settings before switching CMS platforms. Mistakes like faulty scripts or plugin conflicts can wipe out content.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Test the new site thoroughly on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/top-4-ways-to-setup-a-wordpress-staging-environment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">staging environment<\/a>\u2014broken links, forms, or missing SEO elements can hurt both user experience and rankings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Take your time: migrate content carefully and QA everything before going live.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"cb-ol\">\n<li><b> Overlooking mobile and performance:<\/b> Check your site\u2019s speed and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/google-will-expand-use-of-mobile-friendliness-as-a-ranking-signal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">mobile-friendliness <\/a>after switching your CMS. Google uses mobile-first indexing, so a slow or non-responsive site can hurt rankings.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><b> Overlooking key configurations:<\/b> If you forget to copy over important files like <b>.htaccess <\/b>or<b> robots.txt, <\/b>the new site may block crawlers or break redirects.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Use tools like Google PageSpeed to test performance. Ensure the design works well on phones before going live.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cb-h3\" id=\"HTTPS-Migration-Related\">HTTPS Migration-Related SEO Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. No or wrong redirects:<\/b> Simply turning on HTTPS isn\u2019t enough\u2014you must redirect every HTTP URL to its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/blog\/https-secure-websites-gain-visitors-confidence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">HTTPS<\/a> version. Google will treat HTTP and HTTPS pages as duplicates if you don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Mixed content issues:<\/b> After enabling HTTPS, ensure all elements on your pages (images, scripts, CSS) use HTTPS links. If some files still load over HTTP, browsers may block them or mark the page as insecure.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>3. Not updating site settings:<\/b> Treat the HTTPS site like a new property. Add the HTTPS version of your site to Google Search Console and submit a fresh sitemap with HTTPS URLs. Update your canonical URLs to HTTPS as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b>4. Forgetting SSL maintenance:<\/b> Remember that SSL certificates expire. If your certificate lapses after migration, browsers and Google will see your site as insecure and may degrade its ranking.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After the migration, ensure your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accuwebhosting.com\/web-services\/ssl-certificates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">SSL certificate <\/a>(for HTTPS) works properly. Also, check that your<b> SEO tools<\/b> or plugins (like those handling alt text, meta descriptions, or sitemaps) are still active. Don\u2019t forget to confirm that your Google Analytics or other tracking codes are in place.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Choose a host like <a href=\"https:\/\/accuwebhosting.com\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><b>AccuWeb<\/b><\/a> with automatic SSL renewal or monitor the expiration date so your secure setup never breaks. Keeping HTTPS running smoothly is key to maintaining your SEO.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cb-h3\" id=\"Website-Redesign-Related\">Website Redesign-Related SEO Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. Revamping Content Too Much: <\/b>It\u2019s tempting to rewrite text or remove pages during a website redesign. However, significant content changes can confuse Google, which has already indexed your previous content.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This could <b>temporarily<\/b> lower rankings, as Google needs time to <b>reassess<\/b> and re-index the new content.<\/p>\n<p>The rule of thumb is to only update content necessary and retain core keywords. If your redesign changes how the site looks, avoid rewriting <b>headlines<\/b> or <b>keyword-rich paragraphs <\/b>simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Dropping meta tags or headers:<\/b> Don\u2019t lose SEO tags when redesigning. Ensure each page keeps its original title tag, meta description, and H1. Compare old and new versions before launch to maintain rankings and search visibility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"one_line_tips\"><b>Note: During a website redesign, it\u2019s important to revisit key SEO practices already discussed above.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cb-h3\" id=\"Site-Structure\">Site Structure or URL -Related SEO Mistakes<\/h3>\n<p><b>1. Unplanned URL changes:<\/b> Unplanned URL changes, such as renaming folders or altering page slugs without a strategy, can harm your SEO by triggering<b> 404 errors<\/b>. If you need to change URLs for a cleaner structure, create a URL map and implement 301 redirects to each new address. This ensures you preserve link equity and avoid frustrating users.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Broken internal links:<\/b> After a migration, internal links (in menus, footers, and content) often point to old URLs. Broken links harm <b>crawlability<\/b> and user experience. Google\u2019s crawl budget is limited, so any broken internal link wastes effort. To avoid this, perform a full site crawl and fix any broken links.<\/p>\n<p class=\"one_line_tips\">Suggested Article: <a href=\"https:\/\/manage.accuwebhosting.com\/knowledgebase\/5268\/How-to-optimize-your-crawl-budget.html\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to optimize your crawl budget?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Redirect chains and loops:<\/b> Every redirect in a chain reduces link equity. The graphic above shows that a 301 redirect passes only about <b>85% <\/b>of its original value.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If Page A redirects to B and B redirects to C, Google keeps dropping more equity at each step. To prevent this loss, point old URLs directly to the final new URLs (one redirect).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also, watch out for redirect loops (A\u2192B\u2192A), which can trap crawlers. Simple, one-step redirects best protect your SEO.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cb-h2\" id=\"Next-Focus\">Next, Focus on Post-Migration Tasks<\/h2>\n<p>After migration, don\u2019t forget to <b>submit a new XML sitemap<\/b> to Google Search Console. This is essential to ensure your updated pages are indexed properly and quickly. Also, monitor your site\u2019s performance closely for <b>crawl errors<\/b> and indexing issues, and verify that <b>canonical tags<\/b> have been updated to reflect new URLs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Finally, reinstall tracking pixels like <b>Google Analytics<\/b> to continue accurate data collection. Small but important mistakes, like these, can significantly affect your SEO and site visibility post-migration.<\/p>\n<p>After launching the migrated site, <b>monitor performance in Google Search Console and Google Analytics daily<\/b> for the first few weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A successful <b>SEO website migration<\/b> requires planning, testing, and monitoring at every stage. When done right, it helps retain rankings and visibility across search engines.<\/p>\n<p>(Visited 3 times, 3 visits today)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cMigrating your site?
