Moving from WordPress. Without losing what already works.
WordPress can be a fine choice. But if every change needs a developer and every week brings another update, there is a simpler way to run your site.
What moving looks like. What comes with you, and what you leave behind.
Why people move
Usually not because WordPress is bad, but because of what grows around it: a plugin for forms, another for search, another for languages, each needing updates, and a page builder that makes editing slow. Changing a price means logging into a back office and hoping it looks right.
What comes with you
Your pages and their words
Your blog posts or news, as articles
Your pictures, into the media library
Your search titles and descriptions
Your domain, pointed at the new site
What is built in instead
Forms, translations, search settings, redirects, scheduling and version history are part of Webseer, so the plugins that did those jobs are not needed. Anything you no longer use is left behind.
Keeping your links working
Each old address is mapped to its new page with a redirect, so links from Google, emails and other sites still land in the right place. Moving a site always carries some risk to search; keeping addresses and titles is how we keep it low.

Something else? hello@rotomic.ie
Moving a site always carries some risk to search. Keeping your addresses, or redirecting each one to its new page, and keeping your titles and descriptions is how to keep that risk low. We do both.
Yes. Posts move over as articles, with their pictures and dates.
A shop moves differently. Tell us what you sell and we will say plainly whether Webseer's store connection fits.
Yes. We point your domain at the new site and change only the records the website needs, so your email carries on as it is.
