Hi Ti and Alberto,
Here are the steps that should be made to go live with the new WP in order to cover our SEO effort and maintain traffic:
Phase 1:
Before going live with the new WP site we would like to ensure that all pages on the new wordpress site remain the same as the current site.
1. Please let us know if there are new pages that were created on the new WP that aren't currently on the site.
2. Please let us know if there are pages that have been removed and are no longer on the site. These pages need to have 301 redirects to a relevant page in order to pass any SEO value incurred over the years.
Phase 2:
The site migration would be similar to the process we did for YT (see attached) and WT.
1. Copying the current content over (include all pages, content, code, titles, metas, etc.).
2. Create 301 redirects from current pages to relevant new pages on the wordpress site.
3. Provide MZ with the following: 301 redirect list and corresponding pages.
4. Go live. Publish both 301 redirects and new site with the corresponding pages.
5. Do not delete any of current pages.
6. MZ will track progress.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks so much.
