Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SEO Site Migrations (Preserving Rankings), and how System Strats can help.

With proper planning, traffic loss should be minimal and temporary: typically 5–15% in the first few weeks, recovering within 1–3 months. Without proper SEO migration planning, losses of 30–50%+ are common and can take months to recover.

301 redirects. Every old URL must redirect to the most relevant new URL. Missing or incorrect redirects are the #1 cause of ranking loss during migrations. We map every URL and verify every redirect.

It depends. URL changes add risk, so we only recommend them when the SEO benefit is clear: fixing poor URL structures, consolidating duplicate content, or implementing a logical hierarchy that was previously missing.

With proper redirect handling: 2–8 weeks for most sites. Google needs to discover the redirects, recrawl the new pages, and reassess rankings. We monitor daily during this period and address any issues immediately.
