For marketing sites where headless architecture would be unnecessary complexity: move off WordPress onto Framer and publish without a developer in the loop.
Why migrate
No plugin updates, no PHP versions, no security patches, no managed hosting bill, no 3am compromise notification.
Design and content live in the same visual canvas, so campaign pages ship in an afternoon rather than a sprint.
Framer's canvas gives real design control, so the site stops converging on whatever the theme allowed.
Framer's hosting, image handling, and CDN are handled for you, with no caching plugin stack to maintain.
We build in Framer daily and know exactly where it's excellent and where it needs care.
Most marketing sites don't need a headless architecture. Framer is the honest answer more often than agencies admit.
Honest assessment
Framer is an excellent fit for a large share of marketing sites, and a poor fit for a specific set of requirements. Better to know which you are now.
In this kind of migration WordPress almost always goes away entirely. That's usually the point: the maintenance burden is the reason for the project.
Where there's a large editorial archive, we'll sometimes keep the blog on a subdomain and move the marketing pages first.
Publishing experience
The upgrade here isn't technical elegance. It's that the people who need to change the site can change the site.
Edit copy, swap images, and launch new pages on the live site without a deploy or a developer.
Reusable sections and styles mean new pages look right by default instead of drifting page by page.
Blog posts, case studies, careers, and resources handled as structured collections rather than one-off pages.
Architecture
Integrations (CRM, forms, analytics, chat, scheduling) connect natively or through a small amount of well-scoped custom code.
Process
Every template, plugin, custom field, integration, form, and redirect on the current WordPress install gets catalogued.
We decide what becomes a Framer CMS collection, what becomes a static page, and what quietly retires.
Migrate the current look, refresh it, or redesign, built as a proper Framer component library either way.
Framer build, component library, CMS collections, and scripted content migration with a reconciliation pass.
Redirect testing, Core Web Vitals, accessibility audit, form and analytics verification, and a full content diff.
Staged DNS cutover, then Search Console, crawl errors, and vitals watched closely for the first weeks.
Content migration
Posts, pages, custom post types, taxonomies, ACF fields, and media are exported and mapped to Framer CMS collections or static pages.
Shortcodes, page-builder markup, and inline styles are converted into clean content and reusable Framer components.
The uploads directory is migrated and re-referenced, with Framer handling optimisation and responsive variants from there.
An automated diff compares every source URL against its destination so nothing is quietly lost in transit.
SEO & redirects
Every indexed URL is pulled from Search Console, analytics, the sitemap, and a fresh crawl, not just the ones the CMS knows about.
A one-to-one 301 redirect map, built and tested against the live inventory before launch.
Titles, descriptions, canonicals, Open Graph, and structured data carried across and diffed page by page.
Sitemaps, robots, and internal linking rebuilt, then submitted and monitored through Search Console after cutover.
Rankings, crawl errors, redirect hits, and Core Web Vitals monitored for the first weeks, with fixes shipped fast.

Not if the redirect map, metadata, and internal linking are handled properly. Framer handles technical SEO well; the risk in any migration is the redirect work, and that's on us.
Yes. Framer's CMS handles blogs, resources, and structured collections, and sites load fast by default. Where a site needs a coded stack (application UI, multi-channel content) we'll tell you and point at Astro instead.
Each one gets assessed during discovery: replaced with a native integration, rebuilt, or dropped because it was doing nothing. You'll get that list before the project starts.
Yes, and that's the main reason to do this. We hand over a component library plus documentation so new pages look right without design review.
A typical marketing site is five to eight weeks including content migration. A redesign in the same project adds three to six.
A Framer site plan replaces managed WordPress hosting, plugin licences, and most ongoing maintenance retainers.
