What to check before rebuilding off WordPress.com
A website platform switch is really a content, SEO, and forms migration. The Canadian builders above may fit better, but only if you plan the move properly.
- Inventory your pages, forms, redirects, and any third-party scripts before rebuilding anything.
- Check template flexibility, CMS limits, image handling, and any commerce or membership requirements.
- Plan redirects and metadata carefully so search traffic does not disappear after launch.
- Move a staging version first, then compare forms, analytics, and page speed before going live.
