Migrating Your Website from Third-Party and Proprietary CMS to WordPress

Thanks to our diverse programming background, we can help you convert your platform to WordPress. Depending on your current platform, we will suggest a plan to migrate it to WordPress.

As a part of this process, we can transfer the existing content to WordPress or we can rebuild the entire platform from scratch, keeping the best coding practices in mind to ensure your new WordPress website is fast, stable, and secure. Our team’s expertise ensures a seamless transition and a future-proof website that aligns perfectly with your goals and requirements.

Database and Server Migrations

Our team of backend engineers can handle migrations across databases, easily moving your data from one database management system to another while preserving all your entries and maintaining the integrity of the database.

If your existing server cannot handle the website’s load, we can handle and execute a server migration and move your site to a VPS, dedicated server, or a cloud server. We do so by analyzing the resource usage of your existing website, identifying bottlenecks, and suggesting a viable hosting plan.

Migrating to a New Hosting Vendor

Our team is ready to handle the seamless migration of your existing website to a new hosting vendor, providing you with better options if you’re dissatisfied with your current provider’s service or if their existing packages fail to match your demands.

Our experts will conduct a meticulous examination of your website, ensuring a detailed understanding of its unique requirements. We will carefully move your website to one of our trusted and reliable hosting partners, guaranteeing a smooth transition and optimal performance for your online presence.

Why Migrate Your Website To WordPress

User-friendly CMS

WordPress is known for its intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it easy for non-technical users to manage and update website content. You can easily add or edit pages, blog posts, images, and other media without requiring extensive technical knowledge.

Wide Range of Themes and Plugins

WordPress provides a vast selection of themes and plugins that allow you to customize the look and functionality of your website. Whether you need a simple blog or a complex eCommerce site, there's likely a theme and plugin combination that meets your requirements.

Most Powerful CMS

WordPress currently powers approximately 43% of all websites on the internet, making it the most dominant CMS globally and a top choice for website creation and management. This significant market share speaks to its reliability, versatility, and trustworthiness among website owners and developers.

SEO-friendly

WordPress is inherently SEO-friendly, with clean code and structure that search engines can easily crawl and index. Additionally, there are various SEO plugins available to help optimize your site further, improving its visibility in search engine rankings.

Responsive and Mobile-friendly

Most WordPress themes are designed to be responsive, ensuring that your website looks great and functions well on various devices, including smartphones and tablets. This is crucial, as mobile-friendliness is a significant factor in search engine ranking and user experience.

Strong Community Support

WordPress has a vast community of developers, designers, and users who actively contribute to its improvement. You can find plenty of online resources, forums, and documentation to help you with troubleshooting, customizations, and any questions you may have.

Scalability and Flexibility

Whether you have a small personal blog, a content-rich publishing platform, or a large enterprise website, WordPress can easily accommodate your diverse needs. It scales well, making it the perfect choice for businesses of all sizes that have ambitious plans to grow and expand their online presence in the future.

Security and Updates

WordPress consistently releases timely updates and essential security patches, demonstrating its commitment to safeguarding your website from potential vulnerabilities. By maintaining your website and keeping plugins up-to-date, we mitigate the risk of security breaches, contributing to a more secure online presence.

Success Story

One of our projects involved migrating a custom platform built atop Zend framework and originally developed in 2005 to WordPress.

SmartMeetings

 

The project involved migrating the database with close to 100,000 entries from PostgreSQL to MySQL as well as rebuilding the platform entirely in WordPress.

After initial discovery calls, our development team analyzed the existing database and migrated all the entries to WordPress, reassigned new users to existing roles, and ran hundreds of tests with sample data to find the proper algorithm. This was followed by multiple sequential iterations, to allow for reverting of any given step in case of a mapping error. ID mapping and attachment allocation tasks were done in between steps or as additional patches after the migration has been completed entirely.

The project also involved migrating to a new server, a process that allowed us to implement various optimization techniques on a server level as well as a custom toolset for monitoring traffic and data consumption, analyzing logs to ensure a smooth user and website experience for both the visitors and the website owners.

Jon Reed

Co-Founder, diginomica.com

DevriX has been able to add sophisticated functionality to diginomica.com while maintaining a very high mobile-first design standard. That’s a tough balance to maintain. One remarkable thing: I have never met the DevriX team. We have never even spoken on the phone or VoIP. Another member of our team has spoken with them, but the point is I’ve been able to get projects done with DevriX that involved complex design requirements without ever talking real-time. That requires an exceptional attention to detail. I cannot recommend DevriX highly enough.

Adam Sewall

VP Marketing, Verkada

DevriX enabled us to deliver an entirely reimagined B2B website in under 3 weeks. From backend integrations to mobile layouts on the frontend, I was continually impressed with the team’s knowledge and, equally important, ability to think like a user. The engineers weren’t just completing deliverables — they were proactively suggesting solutions to our challenges, and filling in gaps where requirements were incomplete or unclear. Communication was clear and effective throughout the course of the project. Highly recommended for teams looking to move fast!

Mario and his team are flat out awesome. They’ve been able to handle the most difficult challenges we’ve thrown at them whilst all the time offering a level of expertise and command of their subject area way beyond that offered by your average freelancer or small agency. In fact, i’d wager you’d struggle to find such committed and skilled workers at this price point anywhere else, putting them easily on a par with some of the leading WordPress dev shops but at a fraction of the price. Whether you’re looking for a team to make your next big project a reality or to further develop or stregthen an existing project then you won’t be disappointed with what Mario and the devrix/wp-comm.it team have to offer. Get in contact with them today, youll be in good hands.

Kris Gunnars

Founder, AuthorityNutrition

Before I started working with DevriX, I was having severe stability problems with my high-traffic website that gets over 10 million visits per month. They helped me migrate the site to a new webhost and fixed some code issues. Since then I’ve had a near 100% uptime, with an even faster site than before. The team at DevriX is highly knowledgeable about WordPress coding best practices and they always focused on clean code and fast loading times. I highly recommend working with them if you have a WordPress website.

Mario, Stanko and team are great to work with. We’ve worked with them on a number of complex, original applications, and can always count on them to bring extensive knowledge and skill to every project. They’re also very conscientious in their approach – always striving to build the most technically reliable solution. If you’re looking to create a robust software exactly to spec, then I’d highly recommend these guys!

Julius Solaris

Director, SocialCoup LTD

Working with Mario and his team has been a great pleasure. It is difficult to find reliable developers that actually understands WordPress Architecture while managing client communication professionally, Mario is one of the few of them. Definitely recommend.

Our Process of Successfully Migrating Your Site

Our team can take care of your hosting setup, WordPress migration, and optimization of the site for speed and security.
1. Initial Discovery Call to Determine the Scope of Migration

Before we begin working on your project, we will conduct the initial discovery call to determine the scope of migration. We will work with you to establish the size and popularity of your site as well as determine where your current platform is failing in terms of performance.

2. Executing the Migration

If you require a database migration, we will analyze your current database structure and your existing platform and recommend the best possible solution.

For server migrations, a few of the deciding factors such as site traffic and size will determine whether a VPS, dedicated server or cloud server would be the best choice.

And if you need a new hosting vendor, we will recommend a trusted provider experienced with the type of setup your website needs.

3. Taking Care of the Hosting Setup

Throughout the project duration, we will take care of your hosting setup. Our technical team will recommend one of three possible solutions, depending on the needs of your website.

A Combination of Regular Hosting and Managed WordPress Hosting for Smaller Sites

If you have a smaller website that doesn’t receive much traffic, our recommendation is a combination of managed WordPress and regular hosting. This type of hosting includes several optimization techniques necessary to improve site speed and user experience while providing its users with high-security protection.

Highly Optimized And Secure Servers for Medium Websites

If your website needs more than what is provided on a shared hosting plan, our team will collaborate together to build a server stack for your site, using VPS or cloud services.

This will allow us to ensure your site is hosted on a powerful server able to handle a significant traffic load but also to set up a staging area where we test all the changes and updates before pushing them live to your site. We also implement custom monitoring services to ensure your site has the maximum amount of resources available whenever possible.

Dedicated Servers or Cloud Services for Large Websites

For clients that have large websites, we recommend a dedicated server or cloud services. As a part of our process, we dedicate a significant amount of time to plan, setup, and configure your infrastructure as well as provide management services and best coding practices to ensure security and stability.

When your site requires scaling, we can employ load balancers and mirror servers to ensure your site is always accessible.

4. Advice on Business and Marketing Strategy

Throughout the project duration, we can advise you on your business and marketing strategy and help you drive more traffic, generate more leads, and achieve the best possible ROI.

5. Maintaining Your Site with Ongoing Updates and Support

Once your platform has been successfully migrated, we can assist you with ongoing support and development to ensure your platform remains secure and scalable while providing your visitors with the best possible experience. We believe in a long-term business relationship so we will continue to work on your platform to provide you with additional features and speed optimizations.
