Why a relaunch without SEO migration often costs rankings
During a relaunch, URLs, content and technology often change at the same time. If redirects are missing or well-ranking content gets lost, visibility drops, and it takes months to recover.
What a planned SEO migration does for you
- Every old URL with visitors or links gets a suitable target.
- Well-ranking content is preserved or improved.
- Structured data, canonicals and hreflang are in place from day one.
- After launch we monitor rankings, errors and redirects.
Scope of services
What we take on in your SEO migration
- URL inventory
All old URLs with clicks, rankings and backlinks, so that nothing valuable is lost.
- Redirect plan
Every relevant old URL points to the right new target, without chains.
- Content & metadata
Titles, descriptions and content that rank move with you.
- Testing before launch
We test the redirects on the staging environment before the new site goes live.
- Monitoring afterwards
We watch rankings, 404 errors and indexing in the weeks after launch.
A relaunch or system change puts a lot of visibility at stake. We plan redirects, content and technology so that your rankings survive the move.
For every kind of system change
Whether it is a new website, a switch of shop system or a new domain, the approach is similar while the details differ. For Shopware projects, the page on migration and relaunch with Shopware describes the entire process, and the technical fundamentals are covered under technical SEO.

Frequently asked questions about SEO migration and relaunches
All questions and answersDo you always lose rankings during a relaunch?
Not necessarily. Short-term fluctuations are normal. With a complete redirect plan, preserved content and clean technology, major losses can usually be avoided.
When should SEO get involved in a relaunch?
As early as possible, ideally while the new site structure is being planned. That way URLs and content can be planned so that the move stays simple.
