Proprietary builder
SITE123 is described as a proprietary builder with no easy migration path, so content is captured and rebuilt rather than exported.
Migrate your SITE123 website to WordPress with SEO kept intact. Pages, booking and contact forms are rebuilt, and your site goes live without downtime.
These are the issues owners most often report when they outgrow SITE123.
SITE123 is described as a proprietary builder with no easy migration path, so content is captured and rebuilt rather than exported.
Reported page layouts are single-column, so side-by-side designs are rebuilt with WordPress blocks and columns.
Users report pre-made layouts and limited styling, so custom sections are added in WordPress.
Ecommerce features are reported to need a higher plan, so the store is rebuilt in WooCommerce if needed.
Once a SITE123 site is downloaded, future edits can mean editing HTML by hand, so we rebuild it in an editable WordPress setup.
Opening hours, addresses and contact details are checked, since local search depends on them.
