Migrations lose rankings quietly, and no one warns you
A migration feels like a fresh start. New template, new design, new energy. Then a month after launch, the inquiries slow down and the traffic chart starts sliding.
It is rarely one big mistake. It is a changed URL with no redirect, a meta description that never made the move, a sitemap Google was never told about. Each one is small. Together they can undo years of ranking work.
Every one of those losses is preventable, if you know what to check before you go live.
A launch where nothing falls through the cracks
The guide walks you through every SEO detail in order, before, during, and after the move, so your new site goes live with everything your rankings depend on still intact.
- A complete inventory of your existing pages, including the ones your Showit sitemap misses.
- Your URL structure, slugs, title tags, and meta descriptions documented so nothing gets lost in the move.
- Internal links preserved and your WordPress blog connected the way search engines expect.
- 301 redirects mapped from every old URL to its new home, the step that protects your rankings.
- GA4 verified, sitemaps checked, and a Google recrawl requested so the new site gets indexed fast.
Your rankings took years to build. A weekend migration should not be the thing that undoes them.
The Showit Website Migration Guide
29 steps. Every SEO detail that matters during a Showit migration.
Each step explains what to do, why it matters, and what to check, written for real business owners, not developers. Built specifically for Showit + WordPress.
Your domain and page inventory
Decide whether to keep or change your domain name, and document every existing page on your site, including the ones that never appear in your Showit sitemap.
Your SEO records
Record your current URL structure, page slugs, title tags, and meta descriptions, plus the new pages you plan to publish, so nothing gets lost in the move.
Structure and linking
Maintain your URL structure or map old URLs to new ones, preserve your internal linking, and connect your WordPress blog to the new Showit site.
On-page details
Share image, favicon, image SEO, site canvases, header tags, Showit title tags and meta descriptions, and SSL, checked on every page before launch.
Redirects and tracking
Set up the 301 redirects that protect your rankings, then install and verify GA4 tracking so you can see exactly how the new site performs.
Sitemaps and recrawl
Check your Showit sitemaps to confirm Google can find every page, then request a recrawl so the new site gets indexed quickly.

Which migrations does this cover?
Moving to a new Showit template, redesigning your existing Showit site, or migrating to Showit from another platform like WordPress, Squarespace, or ProPhoto. If your new site is Showit + WordPress, this checklist fits.
Do I need to be technical to use it?
No. Every step is written in plain language with the why behind it and exactly what to check. The video walkthrough shows you how to use the worksheet, so you are never guessing.
When should I start the checklist?
Before you go live. The guide is organized into before, during, and after the migration, and the before steps, like documenting your pages and URLs, matter most. Already migrated? The after steps can still recover a lot.
Will this really protect my rankings?
It covers the steps rankings depend on. Keeping your URL structure or mapping 301 redirects, preserving title tags and meta descriptions, maintaining internal links, submitting sitemaps, and requesting a Google recrawl. Skipping those steps is how migrations lose rankings.
What if I would rather not do this myself?
That is the SEO Ready™ VIP Day. In a single focused day, Stefanie builds your SEO foundation for you, then hands it back with a walkthrough. The guide is still worth grabbing either way, because it shows you exactly what good looks like.
Move to your new Showit site with every ranking you earned still intact.
