Drupal to WordPress migration. All your content. Better editorial experience. Lower dev costs.

Not if the migration is done correctly. The primary risk to rankings is broken URLs, if your Drupal URLs don’t redirect to the corresponding WordPress URLs, Google loses the link equity and ranking signals associated with those pages. We build a complete redirect map before launch, verify every old URL has a redirect, and monitor Google Search Console in the 30 days following launch. Migrations we’ve handled have maintained rankings throughout, but it requires careful redirect mapping, not a “launch and hope” approach.

Drupal Views typically get replaced by WordPress custom queries, WP_Query arguments, and optionally a plugin like FacetWP for complex filtering. Custom modules get evaluated individually, most common module functionality has a direct WordPress plugin equivalent. Highly custom modules get rebuilt as WordPress plugins. We document all module replacements during the content audit phase so there are no surprises during the build.

Content volume has less impact on timeline than content complexity. A site with 10,000 simple blog posts can migrate faster than a site with 500 nodes but 15 custom content types with complex field structures. Our typical range is 6 to 16 weeks from project kickoff to launch, more for enterprise sites with extensive custom development requirements. We provide a detailed timeline after the content audit.

Drupal migrations are quoted individually after a review, because content volume and custom module use vary widely. Mid-sized sites typically run several thousand dollars and 4 to 8 weeks, with a fixed price agreed before work begins.

Yes. Drupal nodes map to WordPress posts, pages, or custom post types, and content types with their fields are recreated so structured content stays structured and editable. We map the model during scoping before importing.

For most teams, yes. WordPress has a larger talent pool, simpler editing, and a vast plugin ecosystem, which lowers maintenance cost and hiring difficulty. Drupal’s power comes with complexity that many teams no longer need.

Yes, when migrated carefully. We map every URL, set 301 redirects where paths change, preserve titles and metadata, and monitor Search Console after launch so rankings transfer rather than reset.

Yes. Multilingual Drupal sites move to WordPress using a multilingual plugin such as WPML or Polylang, preserving each language version and its URLs. We scope the language structure up front so nothing is dropped.

With a scripted import rather than manual entry. We export the Drupal database, map fields to WordPress, and import in bulk, then spot-check samples across content types. Large catalogs move accurately without hand-copying every node.

You can, or we can. WordPress is simpler to run day to day than Drupal, so most teams manage content themselves. For updates, backups, and security we offer maintenance plans, which many former Drupal teams prefer over in-house upkeep.
