Migration development
Kavcom Expert handles migrations for businesses across the USA and Canada. Website, e-commerce, CMS, hosting, database, and email, all with SEO protection and minimal downtime.
With hundreds of migrations behind us, we move everything over without losing data, breaking functionality, or hurting your rankings.
Key features
A migration that looks simple on the surface can get complicated fast, and the details are where things go wrong. Here's what we focus on to make sure every migration we handle goes exactly the way it should:
01
We audit your existing setup thoroughly before anything moves, mapping out every page, file, database, user account, and configuration so nothing gets overlooked during the transition.
02
We protect your entire SEO footprint throughout the migration, implementing proper redirects, preserving metadata, and maintaining your URL structure so your Google rankings don't take a hit when you switch.
03
Every piece of data, whether it's customer records, blog posts, product listings, emails, or database entries, is transferred completely and verified carefully so nothing disappears in the process.
04
We test everything on a staging environment before anything goes live, catching and fixing any issues well before your users or customers ever encounter them.
05
We reconnect all your existing third-party tools, plugins, integrations, and configurations on the new platform so your operations continue running without skipping a beat.
06
After the migration goes live, we stay on hand to monitor performance and resolve anything unexpected before it turns into a real problem for your business.

Why Professional Migration Matters
We've seen what happens when migrations go wrong, and it's not pretty. Lost data, broken pages, disappearing Google rankings, email downtime, and weeks of trying to piece everything back together. The truth is, most migration problems are completely avoidable when the job is handled by people who know what they're doing. Here's what you get when you work with Kavcom Expert:
Start a projectBefore we touch anything, we back everything up and document your entire setup. Whether it's a website, a database, or an email account, every single piece of data is accounted for before the migration begins and verified after it's complete.
Building your search rankings takes time and effort, and a poorly handled migration can wipe them out overnight. We treat your SEO footprint with real care, implementing proper redirects, preserving your metadata, and making sure Google sees a clean, healthy transition to your new setup.
We build and test everything on a staging environment first, so when the actual switchover happens, it happens quickly and cleanly. Your visitors and customers experience as little disruption as possible, and your business keeps running while we handle the technical heavy lifting.
How it works
01
We review your existing website, platform, content, integrations, and hosting environment. This helps us identify potential challenges and create a migration plan that minimizes risk.
02
We define the migration strategy, timeline, and technical requirements. Every detail is mapped out to ensure a seamless transition without disrupting your business operations.
03
We securely transfer your website, databases, media files, user accounts, and configurations to the new platform or hosting environment while maintaining data integrity.
04
After the migration, we optimize performance, configure redirects, verify SEO settings, and reconnect essential integrations such as payment gateways, analytics, CRM systems, and third-party applications.
05
Every page, feature, form, integration, and user workflow is thoroughly tested across devices and browsers. We resolve any issues before your new website goes live.
06
Once everything is verified, we complete the migration, monitor the launch, and provide ongoing support to ensure your website remains fast, secure, and fully operational.
We cover pretty much every type of migration a business might need, website migrations, e-commerce store migrations, CMS migrations, hosting migrations, database migrations, and email migrations. If you're not sure whether your specific situation falls into one of these categories, just get in touch and we'll figure it out together.
It depends entirely on what's being migrated and how complex the existing setup is. A straightforward website or hosting migration can be completed in 1 to 2 weeks. Larger projects involving complex databases, large e-commerce catalogs, or multiple systems running simultaneously can take anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks. We'll give you a realistic timeline after reviewing your current setup so there are no surprises.
We do all the build and testing work on a staging environment first, so your current site stays live throughout the entire process. The actual switchover typically involves only a brief window of downtime, usually just a couple of hours, and we always schedule it during your lowest-traffic period to minimize any impact on your business.
Not if the migration is done correctly, and that's exactly what we prioritize. We handle full URL redirect mapping, preserve your existing metadata and page structure, and submit updated sitemaps to Google after launch. When the process is managed properly, most clients see little to no ranking drop at all.
Your emails, contacts, calendars, and folder structures all come with you. We plan email migrations carefully to make sure there's no gap in service, your team can keep communicating throughout the process, and everything is waiting for them exactly as they left it on the new platform.
Yes, absolutely. Large-scale migrations are something we handle regularly. We use a combination of automated migration tools and thorough manual verification to make sure every page, record, image, and configuration transfers accurately, regardless of the size of the project.
We don't disappear once the migration is done. We monitor your new setup closely in the days and weeks following the launch and stay available to catch and resolve anything that comes up. Post-migration support is built into how we work, it's not an optional extra.
Yes. Not every business is running on a mainstream platform, and we understand that. Whether you're migrating from a completely bespoke website, a legacy CMS, a custom database structure, or an older system that's been running for years, we assess your setup carefully and build a migration plan that gets everything moved safely and accurately.
