WordPress migrationfor service businesses

Your WordPress site is working against you.

We help growing service businesses replace outdated WordPress sites with custom-built modern websites — fast, secure, and engineered to bring in leads. No plugins to babysit. No failing Core Web Vitals. No more crossing your fingers after every update.

96% came from plugins — the same plugins running on most WordPress sites.

The problem

WordPress was great — until it wasn't.

You built your business on WordPress. It made sense at the time. But somewhere along the way, things started piling up — 25 plugins, a slow mobile experience, security warnings you're not sure what to do with, and a site that loads so slowly your customers leave before they ever see your phone number.

You're not imagining it. Most WordPress sites fail the performance standards Google uses to rank search results. Their plugin ecosystem produced nearly 8,000 new vulnerabilities last year. And the typical WordPress mobile experience is slow enough that visitors leave before they ever see your phone number. Your site isn't just slow. It's quietly costing you customers.

The solution

A website that works as hard as you do.

We rebuild your site as a custom-coded modern website — no WordPress, no plugins, no maintenance for you to think about. Your content, brand, and search rankings all come with you. And when something needs to change, you email us — no admin panels to learn, no plugins to update, no weekend spent figuring out why the site broke.

Fast by default

Pages load in under 1.5 seconds. Google's own research shows every additional second of mobile delay can drop conversions by up to 20% — the difference between a visitor calling you and bouncing to a competitor.

Secure without the headaches

No more plugin vulnerabilities, no more late-night "your site's been hacked" emails. Modern architecture means security isn't something you have to think about.

Built to generate leads

Every page is designed to do one thing: get the right people to call you, fill out your form, or book an appointment. Not just look nice — actually work.

Results

What happens after migration.

Typical outcomes for a service business migrating off WordPress to a modern static-site build. Numbers reflect industry benchmarks and our own client patterns.

4.0s → <1.5s

Mobile load time

Faster pages mean fewer bounces. For most clients this shows up in analytics as 20-30% lower mobile bounce rates within the first month.

Up to 20% lift

Conversions per second saved

Per Google's own research, every additional second of mobile delay can drop conversions by up to 20%. Most migrations cut 2-3 seconds off load time — and Core Web Vitals improvements compound the lift through better search rankings.

$0–20/mo hosting

Hosting + maintenance

No plugin licenses, no managed-WordPress fees. Modern static hosting runs free or near-free for a typical service business — and we set it up for you.

Industries

Built for businesses like yours.

We work with growing service businesses — the kind of companies where your website needs to bring in real leads, not just sit there looking nice. If you're doing $500K to $10M in revenue and your WordPress site isn't pulling its weight, we should talk.
