Migration to Next.js & Astro in Dublin
We migrate sites from monolithic WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and other CMSs to modern Headless architecture powered by Astro or Next.js. In Dublin we execute zero-downtime migrations, your site stays live throughout the entire process.
We migrate applications from Angular, Vue, legacy React, jQuery, PHP and static generators (Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby) to Astro or Next.js. You gain better performance, SEO and easier long-term development.
A migration to Astro or Next.js in Dublin reaches PageSpeed 95-100 and a sharply lower TTFB, because pages are served from the edge rather than assembled per request. A static front-end eliminates common attack vectors and drastically lowers hosting costs.
Every migration includes full URL mapping, 301 redirects, meta tag and structured data transfer. Your Google rankings don't just hold, they typically improve thanks to better Core Web Vitals.
Teams in Dublin move content and logic off WordPress, Joomla, Drupal or legacy frameworks onto a lighter Astro or Next.js frontend when Core Web Vitals, hosting cost or attack surface stop being defensible. This page explains how WPPoland runs Astro and Next.js migration: URL mapping, SEO preservation, staged cutover and handover to the local team.
When migration is the right call
Migration pays off when the current CMS blocks performance, security or editorial work - not when plugin hygiene and caching would be enough. Common signals: TTFB over a second on shared hosting, an admin slower than the front, no pre-release tests, and editors afraid to publish in peak season.
For lead sites and stores in Dublin, local payments, VAT and EU data residency still apply. Headless does not remove those constraints - it makes them explicit in the API and frontend layers.
Delivery steps
- Inventory URLs, redirects, schema and critical content.
- Choose Astro (content-heavy) or Next.js (interactivity, auth, SSR).
- Staging with a 1:1 301 map and meta parity checks.
- Section-by-section cutover, or big-bang only on small sites.
- Watch Search Console and Core Web Vitals in the first weeks.
SEO and risk control
Every URL change is a written decision, not a generator side effect. Canonicals, hreflang and structured data move with the content. After launch we fix indexing dips before a local campaign in Dublin loses traffic.
Handover
Repository, env vars, deploy pipeline and a short runbook stay with the client. Hypercare covers critical fixes and a performance review after the first traffic spike.

What does a brief from Dublin usually ask for?
The work comes mostly from Local SMB and Enterprise. The acceptance list for Ireland runs through GDPR, NIS2 and EAA. None of that is specific to Dublin, it applies market-wide, but it is cheaper written into the scope than retrofitted after launch.
What kind of migration work do you take on?
We move existing sites off WordPress or an older CMS onto a headless setup with a Next.js or Astro frontend. The content backend can stay (WordPress as a headless source over REST or GraphQL) or move to something else, depending on who edits content day to day. We don't rebuild projects that would be cheaper to fix where they are.
Do you migrate everything at once or incrementally?
Incremental by default. The new frontend takes over one section at a time while the rest keeps running on the old system, with a reverse proxy or edge rules splitting the traffic until we've finished. A big-bang cutover only makes sense on small sites, where running two stacks in parallel costs more than a single clean switch.
