Custom CMS for High-Traffic Websites

A headless CMS separates the content management backend from the frontend presentation layer. Content is stored once and delivered via API to any channel — web, mobile, or third-party platform. It makes sense when you publish to multiple channels from one content source, need frontend flexibility without platform constraints, or require page performance a traditional CMS architecture cannot deliver

Every URL is mapped and redirected before migration starts. Metadata, page titles, structured data, and canonical tags are transferred and validated. We run a pre-migration SEO audit, confirm redirect chains are clean, and do a post-migration ranking check before closing the project. SEO continuity is planned as a hard requirement, not reviewed after the site goes live

We use a strict pre-migration protocol to ensure you don’t lose organic traffic. Before moving a single file, we crawl your existing site to map out every current URL. We then create a meticulous 301 redirect map, preserve all existing metadata (titles, descriptions, and alt tags), and ensure your internal linking structure remains intact. After launch, we continuously monitor Google Search Console to fix any 404 errors instantly.

A standard WordPress build with custom theme and plugin development typically costs between $8,000 and $30,000. A headless CMS setup with Sanity or Strapi and a Next.js frontend usually runs $25,000 to $80,000. A full enterprise migration with complex content mapping frequently exceeds $80,000. Cost depends on content complexity, integration requirements, and how much existing infrastructure needs to be preserved.

A focused WordPress build typically takes 6 to 10 weeks when requirements are clear. A headless CMS build with custom content modelling usually runs 10 to 16 weeks. A full platform migration typically takes 8 to 14 weeks depending on content volume and integration complexity. The biggest factor is how well-documented the existing content structure is before work begins.

Yes. We review the existing codebase, content structure, plugin setup, and technical debt before recommending anything. We identify what is working, what needs fixing, and the cleanest path forward before writing new code. This is common on projects where the original architecture was never built to handle the content volume the team actually needs.

We work across WordPress, Drupal, Webflow, Strapi, Sanity, Contentful, and custom-built platforms. For legacy systems on Joomla or outdated custom builds we handle migration to modern platforms with full content and SEO continuity. Platform choice follows your requirements. We do not push a preferred vendor.

Yes. Custom plugin development, theme builds from scratch, and existing plugin modification are all part of our WordPress service. We do not use pre-built themes adapted for your brand. Custom builds give editors a cleaner experience and developers a codebase that is actually maintainable long term.

Post-launch support covers security patching, plugin and platform updates, performance monitoring, Core Web Vitals maintenance, and feature development. WordPress and Drupal both release security updates that need to be applied promptly. We stay involved so your site stays secure and fast after launch.
