pwired Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 A client asked me what will happen with his page rank in Google if I migrate his old website made with Joomla CMS to Processwire CMS ? Anyone know more about this ? 1
Peter Knight Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Are you keeping the exact same design, content and structure? If so, your page rank won't be affected (negatively OR positively) unless the server is slower as speed is now a google metric. That's my belief anyway. 2
pwired Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 Are you keeping the exact same design, content and structure? Text and content will stay the same but design needs to be renewed.
SiNNuT Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Google doesn't care about the CMS you use. If the content and url structure of the public site stay the same the pagerank should stay the same. Pagespeed and maybe https could have a little influence. If you do adjust the url's, be sure to setup the correct 301 redirects from old to new url's, and you should be fine. 3
DaveP Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Another factor that could be beneficial is if the old design wasn't mobile friendly and the new one is - Google is now noting mobile friendly sites (and possible ranking the a bit higher) in mobile SERPs.
