The Challenge

Elise Darma, an influential online entrepreneur offering courses to help businesses grow through social media, needed to migrate her website from Squarespace to WordPress. She aimed to maintain and enhance her organic visibility during this transition. Elise Darma enlisted NAV43 to manage this migration while mitigating any risk of losing search authority.

During the migration, NAV43 performed a full technical SEO audit, developed a URL restructure, and created a keyword mapping strategy. Unfortunately, the client’s developer launched the website without adhering to NAV43’s migration plan, leading to significant drops in organic traffic and keyword rankings overnight.
