Netlify to Vercel Migration · Leicester

Netlify to Vercel Migration in Leicester

Moving Leicester sites from Netlify to Vercel, where the build is straightforward and the risk sits entirely in the redirects. Rules written in Netlify's configuration do not transfer, and a site that has accumulated years of them can lose a meaningful share of its traffic on the day the domain switches over.

Why this comes up

The problem

The configuration file holds sixty redirect rules that have no equivalent on the new platform.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Redirect and rewrite rules translated individually and verified after deployment
  • Headers and security policies reproduced, since these are configured differently
  • Environment variables recreated per environment rather than copied wholesale
  • Serverless and edge functions adapted, as the runtimes are not identical
  • DNS cutover planned with reduced record lifetimes ahead of the change
  • Preview and branch deployments reconfigured to match how the team works

Working in Leicester

East Midlands

Leicester is our home city. We are based here, most of our team lives here, and a good share of our clients are within a half-hour drive — which means site visits, workshops and hardware installs happen in person rather than over a call.

The most common briefs here are ecommerce for the city's textile and food manufacturers, booking systems for its large independent hospitality scene, and stock and logistics integration for distributors along the M1 corridor.

Netlify to Vercel Migration in Leicester — common questions

Why are redirects the main risk?
Because they encode history. Rules accumulated over years cover old URLs, campaign links and previous site structures, and they exist only in a configuration file — so losing them means every one of those addresses starts returning nothing.
How should the DNS change be handled?
By shortening record lifetimes in advance. Reducing them a day or two before the switch means the change propagates in minutes rather than hours, which matters considerably if something needs reverting quickly.
Do functions work the same way?
Closely, but not identically. Handler signatures, available runtimes and execution limits differ between the platforms, so functions need testing rather than assuming a redeploy is sufficient — particularly anything relying on request or response details.
Is this migration usually justified?
Where the project is Next.js and uses features the framework's own platform supports first, there is a genuine argument. Otherwise both platforms host static sites and functions perfectly well, and the honest position is that the difference rarely justifies the disruption on its own.
Do you work with businesses across Leicestershire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Leicester and the surrounding Leicestershire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Leicester businesses do you usually work with?
The most common briefs here are ecommerce for the city's textile and food manufacturers, booking systems for its large independent hospitality scene, and stock and logistics integration for distributors along the M1 corridor. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Textiles & Fashion, Logistics, Food & Drink, Retail and Higher Education.
Do you cover the areas around Leicester?
Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Loughborough, Nottingham, Derby, Coventry, Northampton. Leicester is an urban area of roughly 560,000+, and we take on work across the wider Leicestershire region rather than the city boundary alone.
