pwired Posted March 11, 2015 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Knight Posted March 11, 2015 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwired Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiNNuT Posted March 11, 2015 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveP Posted March 12, 2015 Share 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.
