Platform Rebuilds

WordPress was built for 2003 blogs. Your business outgrew it.

We rebuild small business sites off WordPress onto a modern stack (TypeScript + React + Vite or Next.js or TanStack Start), Lighthouse 90+, AEO baked in, and a content workflow your team can actually use.

The challenge
WordPress was fine when the site was simple, and now it is the thing keeping you stuck. Plugin conflicts break the contact form, a security patch breaks the theme, and page load times creep up every quarter. Your old SEO agency keeps adding plugins to compensate. The bigger issue is that AI engines walk past WordPress sites because the rendered HTML is bloated, the schema is inconsistent or missing, and what should be clean JSON-LD ends up partially generated by three competing plugins. The performance tax is real on mobile too: typical WordPress sites load in 3 to 5 seconds, customers bounce, and ChatGPT cannot index pages it cannot fetch quickly.
How we solve it
We rebuild the site on a modern stack we actually maintain ourselves: TypeScript + React, Vite or Next.js or TanStack Start depending on the use case, Tailwind, shadcn/ui, deployed on cite-met.com or your hosting of choice. Lighthouse 90+, sub-2-second loads on 4G, mobile-first, accessibility-compliant. The migration is staged: we build the new site in parallel, validate every URL against the old sitemap, ship a 301 redirect for each one, and only flip DNS once the new site is verified. SEO equity is preserved. AEO ships baseline (llms.txt, AI-bot allowlist, FAQ schema, PersonJsonLd). Your content editor gets a clean interface, not the WordPress admin maze. Builds run Site $2,500, Story $5,000, Engine $9,000 depending on the scope.

Key benefits

Pages that load under a second

Static generation and edge delivery cut out the server-render bottleneck WordPress carries. Loads drop under a second, three to five times faster than the typical WordPress site.

The site never goes dark

We build the new site alongside the old one and only flip the switch once it checks out. Your customers never hit a maintenance page.

Your content stops being trapped

Out of WordPress, your content lives as data. One source can feed the website, a mobile app, a partner portal, and an AI feed, without anyone copying it three times.

Our process

  1. 01

    Technical & Content Audit

    We write down every plugin, custom function, content type, workflow, and integration in your WordPress install, so nothing gets lost in the move.

  2. 02

    Architecture Design

    We pick the target stack to fit your team: which CMS, which frontend framework, where it is hosted, how it deploys.

  3. 03

    Automated Content Migration

    We write migration scripts that move your content, metadata, media, and URLs across cleanly, with nothing dropped.

  4. 04

    Frontend Development & QA

    We rebuild the frontend in React, fast and accessible and faithful to your design, then test it hard across phones, tablets, and browsers.

  5. 05

    Staged Cutover & SEO Validation

    We cut over with no downtime, map every redirect, validate the structured data, and watch search performance through the switch.

Quick answers

Frequently asked.

Most migrations run 8 to 16 weeks, depending on how tangled the WordPress install is: how many plugins, custom post types, integrations, and how much content. We give you a firm timeline after the technical audit. Because the move is staged, you watch it come together piece by piece instead of holding your breath for one big switch at the end.

No. Holding your rankings is the whole point of how we run the move. We ship 301 redirects for every URL, carry over all metadata and structured data, keep your URL structure where we can, and watch Google Search Console before, during, and after the cutover. So far that has meant zero organic traffic lost.

It depends on your team, so we do not push one. Sanity suits teams that want flexible content modeling. Contentful holds up for large teams with involved workflows. Strapi fits teams that want open-source and self-hosted. We look at how your editors work and what you need to scale before we name one.

A WordPress rebuild typically lands at the Story tier ($5,000) for content-heavy sites that need design plus audio/video content processing, or the Engine tier ($9,000) when programmatic SEO at scale matters (multi-location, service-area, model-page systems). Simple brochure-style sites can land at the Site tier ($2,500). Free 24-page audit will scope it precisely.
