After years of advising on migrations we know the necessary procedures to reduce the loss of SEO traffic.

“We had heard about Human Level and their experience in SEO and decided to work with them on the migration of our online store. A complex project, but the results were so good that now we collaborate with them in 7 web projects, also including content writing. The treatment they give us, together with the quality of their work, make them the best.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have a question we haven’t answered? Do not hesitate to contact us.

What is the SEO risk of changing URLs?

If a page changes its URL the next time a search engine visits it, it will find an error. If this situation is repeated, the search engine will recognize that the page no longer exists, remove it from its index and the website will lose visibility. In turn, the new URL will have to be re-indexed and re-positioned. Failure to optimize this transition will result in a drastic drop in SEO traffic.

The normalization period of SEO traffic will depend on how much the website changes and, if problems are detected, that can be solved quickly. If a URL change is not properly planned and executed, the loss can be up to 90% and take 6 to 18 months to recover SEO traffic. With a properly applied SEO migration we can reduce the time to a few weeks.

When we can only apply a limited number of 301 redirects, we prioritize the migration of the website’s most important URLs. This ensures that the migration is as effective as possible.

During our auditing phase we not only recommend 301 redirects, we also check that the website is still search engine friendly in terms of technical and content quality characteristics. During this phase, you can take advantage of the opportunity to additionally apply a comprehensive SEO audit so that the new website will rank even better after the migration.
