Success Story: WordPress Migration

We moved our own WordPress site to Ploy in one night.

Our own site ran on WordPress, and plugins and security upkeep were costing more attention than the site was worth. So we did for ourselves what we do for clients and moved about 600 pages to Ploy in one night. Jean-Nicolas set one condition. The move could not hurt our visibility in search or AI answers.

When upkeep outweighs the site

Over time, plugins and security upkeep on our WordPress site cost more attention than the site was worth.

We wanted off WordPress, with one condition from Jean-Nicolas, our founder and CEO. The move could not hurt Sengo's visibility in search or AI answers.

"We basically migrated with Ploy in a night. So I was like, oh my God, this is nice."

What we did

Audit the live site before changing anything

Before changing anything, Ploy's agent read every sitemap and all of the metadata. In roughly an hour, it found about 50 issues already on the live site.

Move about 600 pages in one night

With the review done, we migrated about 600 WordPress pages to Ploy in a single night.

Go live after a few evenings

With the migration done, we worked on visuals in a few evening sessions over about a week, and the new site went live on Ploy. Sengo Lab, which had its own site, now lives under sengo.com.

Off WordPress, live on Ploy within about a week.

Our new site went live on Ploy after a few evening sessions, with Sengo Lab now part of sengo.com. Sengo is an official Ploy partner, and we help clients secure WordPress or leave it.
