Where rebuilds go wrong
Most traffic losses happen at launch
Changed URLs without redirects, missing metadata and slower templates are the usual reasons a new site loses search traffic. We check every one before launch day.
- Step 1: MapEvery old URL mapped to a new one
- Step 2: CheckMetadata, schema and speed on staging
- Step 3: LaunchRedirects live, sitemaps submitted
- Step 4: WatchRankings and errors monitored daily
How we measure it
Measured from day one
Speed, search visibility and conversions tracked from launch, so you can see what the new build changed. Ongoing support runs in 90-day blocks.
