What is SEO migration?
SEO migration is moving your website or some pages of your website. The move can take place to another platform, but also to another domain, server, or CMS. SEO migration is important for preserving the SEO value and thus ensuring that you do not lose organic traffic. Due to the many changes that will take place, online visibility and SEO may change. You can also lose your position in the search results if the migration of a website goes wrong.
