Migration planning

A website and app migration checklist.

A successful migration starts before anything moves. Inventory what matters, decide what must be preserved, and establish how the team will verify the result and respond if the cutover does not go as planned.

Request a website review

Inventory the real system

Document pages, data, domains, DNS, hosting, users, integrations, analytics, email, and the tools that depend on the current system.

Plan the cutover and rollback

Set the order of work, ownership, communications, verification steps, and a practical route back if a critical issue appears. Do not promise zero downtime before the system is understood.

Verify what customers and teams use

Test important redirects, forms, sign-in, transactions, data, notifications, and internal workflows after the move—not only that the homepage loads.
