A full URL redirect map
Every old page redirects to its matching new page before launch.
A law firm website redesign risks losing search rankings only if it is done carelessly. Done properly, every old URL redirects to its matching new page, the content and titles that already rank are carried across, and the parts of the old site that were genuinely weak get rebuilt rather than repeated.
What it costs
The fear of losing rankings, plus the disruption of a project, keeps many firms running a slow, outdated site years longer than they should. Meanwhile a competitor's faster, better-structured site is winning the calls that a redirect-protected redesign would have kept. The risk of a careful redesign is much smaller than the ongoing cost of an aging site.
Every URL on the current site is mapped to its equivalent on the new one, and a redirect is put in place before the old site goes offline, so a search engine and a visitor both land on the right new page automatically. Page titles and content that already rank for useful searches are carried across rather than rewritten for the sake of change.
A single crowded "Practice Areas" page, a resume-style attorney bio, or a site that loads slowly on a phone are exactly the things a redesign should fix rather than preserve. We separate what is working, which gets protected, from what is weak, which gets rebuilt, instead of treating the whole site as either sacred or disposable.
Beyond the redirect work, the new site carries our local ranking guarantee: it starts ranking for local searches within 3 to 5 months of launch, or we keep working on it at no extra charge until it does. That guarantee only makes sense once the migration itself has been handled correctly.
Every old page redirects to its matching new page before launch.
What already ranks is carried across; what is thin gets rewritten.
A common weakness on old sites, fixed as part of the redesign.
Replacing resume-style pages with pages a client actually reads.
A common reason firms redesign in the first place, guaranteed in writing.
Ranking within 3 to 5 months of launch, or we keep working at no extra charge.
Not if the migration is handled correctly. Redirecting every old URL to its new equivalent and carrying across content and titles that already rank is standard practice on every redesign we do.
Yes. We move attorney bios, practice area content, office details and any articles worth keeping, then rewrite what needs rewriting rather than starting from nothing.
About the same. Depending on the plan, a redesign launches in 7 to 15 days, since the extra work is redirect mapping rather than additional build time.
Then the redesign is closer to a fresh build, and we focus mainly on redirecting the URLs that hold any existing rankings, even if the content itself is fully rewritten.
No. Redirect mapping is part of the redesign process included in the build, not a separate line item.
