Benchmark & Audit
What ranks, what converts and what nobody visits, recorded before anything changes.
Modernise an outdated site without losing the search rankings you already have — audited first, redirected properly, and measured after launch.
The most expensive mistake in a redesign is launching a beautiful new site that quietly loses half its search traffic, because URLs changed and nobody mapped the redirects.
We start by recording what currently ranks and converts, protect exactly that, and then improve everything around it. Design is the visible part of a redesign; the migration plan is the part that decides whether it succeeds.
The visible improvements, and the invisible work that protects your traffic.
What ranks, what converts and what nobody visits, recorded before anything changes.
A modern, mobile-first design built around how visitors actually move through the site.
Every old URL mapped to its new home, so rankings and inbound links survive the move.
Speed, Core Web Vitals and accessibility improved as part of the rebuild.
Rankings, traffic, top pages and conversion paths recorded as a baseline.
New design agreed, and existing content sorted into keep, rewrite or retire.
The new site is built and every redirect is mapped and tested on staging.
Go live, then monitor rankings and errors daily through the first weeks.
It can, badly, if URLs change without redirects — that is the single most common cause of traffic collapse after a relaunch. Done properly, with a full redirect map and preserved content, rankings usually hold and often improve because the new site is faster.
Where it is working, yes. The audit tells us which pages earn traffic and enquiries; those are preserved and improved rather than rewritten for the sake of it. Pages nobody visits get retired or merged.
Usually four to six weeks — longer than a fresh build, because auditing existing content and mapping redirects takes real time. That extra time is precisely what protects your traffic.
We monitor closely through the first weeks — search console errors, rankings, broken links and form submissions — and fix issues as part of the project rather than as a new job. Launch is not the end of the engagement.
