We migrated Sportzpoint.com's full archive of roughly 15,000 articles with zero downtime. Here's exactly how the same process works for your publication.
Every migration is handled by our team, not left to you and a plugin. You keep publishing on your current CMS the entire time.
A 30-minute call where we review your current CMS, article count, content types (live blogs, galleries, web stories), and any custom requirements — like taxonomy structure or author roles — before we touch anything.
We export your articles, categories, tags, authors, and media library, then map and import them into PressTag. This runs against a staging copy — your live site keeps running on your current CMS throughout.
Every old URL is mapped to its new PressTag slug and set up as an automatic 301 redirect, so your search rankings carry over. If you're keeping your existing frontend design, we connect it to the PressTag API with tenant routing.
Once staging is verified against your live site, DNS cutover typically takes about 15 minutes. Your editorial team can start publishing in the PressTag admin the same day.
For publications under 20,000 articles, most migrations complete in 2–5 days from discovery call to go-live. Larger archives or complex custom content types may take longer — we'll give you a specific estimate after the discovery call.
No. We migrate your content into PressTag on a staging environment while your existing site stays live. The only cutover moment is DNS, which typically takes about 15 minutes.
PressTag tracks every old slug and serves automatic 301 redirects to its new location, so search engines see a clean redirect chain rather than broken links. This is exactly the approach we used migrating Sportzpoint.com's archive.
Yes. We've built migration paths for WordPress, Ghost, Contentful, and custom-built CMS platforms. Tell us what you're on during the discovery call and we'll confirm the approach.
No. PressTag is headless, so your existing frontend can stay exactly as it is — we connect it to the PressTag API rather than replacing your design.
Migration is included at no extra cost on the Growth plan, and is part of every Enterprise plan. Talk to us during your demo for specifics on your plan.
