WordPresstoSanity
Give your content a clearer home.
Moving from WordPress to Sanity should solve a business problem: maintenance, editing, integrations or room to grow. We inventory the current system, agree what stays and build the replacement alongside it. Your existing site remains available while the new one takes shape.
Why companies leave WordPress
- What changes after WordPress
- Custom post types, ACF fields, Gutenberg blocks and shortcodes need a content map. We inventory plugins separately so forms, search and other background features have explicit replacements.
- A system your team can maintain
- Sanity becomes your editorial workspace, with document types, references and preview. We connect it to the website that renders the content. A CMS move alone does not replace the frontend.
- Scope before development
- We separate essential features from historical workarounds. You get a written scope based on the templates, content and integrations your business actually uses.
What moves
- Content and media
- Page types, text, images, downloads and relationships get a content map. A sample import reveals formatting issues before the full content set moves.
- URLs and search visibility
- We collect existing URLs, keep them where practical and redirect changed addresses to relevant destinations. Titles, descriptions and important incoming links are included. Search positions are monitored after the switch.
- Forms and connected services
- Enquiries, newsletters, search and CRM connections are rebuilt or reconnected. We agree where information goes and who receives it before switching traffic.
- Editing and ownership
- Sanity becomes your editorial workspace, with document types, references and preview. We connect it to the website that renders the content. A CMS move alone does not replace the frontend.
- Changeover and handover
- We review a preview together, plan the final data sync and agree a rollback path. Your team receives access and instructions for daily work.
What we watch for
- WordPress specifics
- Custom post types, ACF fields, Gutenberg blocks and shortcodes need a content map. We inventory plugins separately so forms, search and other background features have explicit replacements.
- Hidden dependencies
- Language variants, downloads, archives and embedded tools can be missed by a visual inventory. We include them in the URL and feature map before retiring the old system.
- Ongoing responsibility
- Hosting, dependencies, CMS or app fees and future changes are assigned explicitly. Changing platforms changes maintenance rather than removing it.
What you probably want to know
Yes. We can rebuild the approved design or agree targeted improvements. A platform move does not require a new brand identity.
We preserve useful content and URLs, map redirects and monitor the switch. Search positions can still fluctuate, so unchanged rankings cannot be promised.

Templates, content models, custom functionality, data quality and integrations determine the effort. We inspect these before providing a written quote.
Yes, while the replacement is built. We agree a final sync and changeover window in advance, especially for shops receiving live orders.
