Website migration template for a safer move to Next.js.

This website migration template helps Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor reproduce your current website in an owned Next.js repository. Start with a complete homepage, review the result, then move the remaining pages, content, forms, analytics, URLs, redirects, SEO, and GEO foundations with one clear process.

A website migration can break the pages bringing you traffic and leads.

The design may look finished while important routes, CMS content, forms, tracking, and redirects are still missing. A useful migration keeps the visible website and the systems around it working together.

Use the template

Useful pages disappear during the move

Pages outside the main navigation can still earn traffic, links, leads, and customer trust. They need a clear destination before routes change.

The homepage matches while the rest stays unfinished

CMS pages, forms, downloads, localized routes, search, and third-party scripts require their own migration decisions.

Marketing inherits another slow website

Moving the same bottlenecks into a new framework leaves the team waiting for every landing page, message update, and launch.

Move the complete marketing website into a codebase you control.

The Agentic Website Template gives your migration a ready Next.js structure, agent instructions, reusable components, discovery files, lead capture, and launch checks. Your team gets a working destination for the old site and a better way to update it after the move.

See the three ways to use the template

Start with one complete list of the current website.

Find every important page

Combine the sitemap, navigation, analytics, Search Console, CMS, downloads, forms, and known campaign URLs. Each important route and connected service gets a place in the migration plan.

  • Include pages outside the main navigation
  • Record content, forms, files, and integrations
  • Mark routes with traffic, links, or leads

Clone the homepage and review it before expanding.

Rebuild what customers see

The coding agent reproduces the approved design, responsive behavior, assets, interactions, and animations inside the starter. Your homepage review establishes the components and tokens used by the rest of the site.

  • Compare the live site and Next.js preview
  • Check desktop, mobile, and interactive states
  • Approve the shared visual foundation first

Keep important pages readable at their new URLs.

Protect discovery

Useful copy and navigation render in HTML. Titles, descriptions, canonical URLs, structured data, internal links, robots rules, the sitemap, and direct redirects stay part of the move.

  • Keep the topic and purpose of valuable pages
  • Render key copy and links in HTML
  • Redirect every changed path directly

Move forms and services before traffic switches.

Reconnect the website

Connect each form, analytics script, CMS source, search experience, and third-party service to its new home. Test the real submission and data flow instead of stopping at the visible interface.

  • Choose a destination for every form
  • Reconnect analytics, CMS, and required services
  • Test success, error, and delivery states

Check the production website before customers arrive.

Switch the domain

Crawl the final environment and test routes, redirects, forms, analytics, metadata, social previews, mobile layouts, crawl settings, and rollback steps before pointing the domain to the new site.

  • Audit the final production configuration
  • Verify routes, redirects, forms, and analytics
  • Record launch owners and monitoring checks

Move the website one reviewed step at a time.

Begin from a new Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor terminal. Open the template, share the source website, and let the included site-clone skill establish the homepage before the rest of the migration begins.

Start with the Agentic Website Template
  1. 01

    Open the template with your coding agent

    Clone the repository and ask the agent to read README.md and AGENTS.md so it understands the project, workflow, and review rules.

  2. 02

    Share the source website

    Provide the URL, platform access, sitemaps, exports, CMS data, analytics, redirects, and services available to the migration.

  3. 03

    Approve the homepage clone

    Review visual fidelity, mobile behavior, interactions, content, navigation, and the first conversion path before building more routes.

  4. 04

    Move, connect, and launch

    Build the remaining pages, move the content, reconnect services, add redirects, and run the included checks against production.

Finish with a complete website your team can keep changing.

A reviewed copy of the current experience

The pages, content, responsive layouts, interactions, assets, and services people rely on have a clear place in Next.js.

A safer change of platform

Useful URLs, page meaning, metadata, links, forms, analytics, and redirects are checked before the domain moves.

A website marketing can keep moving

AI coding agents can read the goals, brand guidance, components, content examples, and launch rules inside the repository.

Choose your migration path

Start with the platform you are moving from.

Use the general website migration workflow or open a platform-specific guide for Webflow, Framer, WordPress, or Lovable dependencies.

Website migration template questions.

Straight answers for teams moving an existing marketing website into Next.js.

Can the template migrate a website from any platform?

The site-clone workflow can begin from any public website your company owns or has permission to reproduce. Platform access and exports help the agent account for CMS content, forms, localization, redirects, and services that are hidden from the public pages.

Do we need to redesign during the migration?

You can keep the current design, refresh selected sections, or create a new direction. Reviewing one complete homepage first gives your team a clear visual foundation before the remaining routes move.

Will a website migration preserve our rankings?

Rankings can change during any major site move. The workflow protects the parts your team controls, including useful URLs, page meaning, metadata, internal links, content, redirects, canonicals, and crawl settings.

Who maintains the website after the migration?

Your team owns the Next.js repository and deployment account. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another coding agent can follow the stored project guidance and create reviewed changes for marketing.

Move your website into a Next.js foundation your team controls.

Use the Agentic Website Template to clone the current experience, protect the pages and systems that matter, and keep publishing with AI coding agents after the migration.
