Squarespace to WordPress Migration in Portsmouth
Moving Portsmouth sites from Squarespace to WordPress, where the export exists but is partial. Squarespace produces a WordPress-format file that carries basic pages and posts and leaves out a good deal else — galleries, product pages, index pages and several block types — so treating the import as the migration guarantees quiet gaps.
Why this comes up
The problem
The export imported cleanly, and nobody checked which page types it silently omitted.
What you get
What we deliver
- Export contents audited against the live site, page type by page type
- Omitted content identified and migrated separately rather than assumed present
- Galleries and specialised blocks rebuilt, since they do not survive the export
- Commerce content handled separately if the site was selling
- Redirects mapped, as Squarespace and WordPress structure URLs differently
- Media checked for completeness, because image references frequently break

Squarespace to WordPress Migration in Portsmouth — common questions
- What does the export actually include?
- Broadly, standard pages and blog posts. What it tends to leave behind — galleries, product pages, album and index pages, certain blocks — is exactly the content on the pages people were most proud of, which is why an audit against the live site matters.
- How do we know what is missing?
- By comparing page by page rather than trusting a count. A crawl of the existing site produces the definitive list of what was published, and checking that against what arrived is a short exercise that prevents a long one later.
- Do images come across reliably?
- Partially. References often point back at Squarespace rather than being imported, which works until the old site is switched off and every image on the new one breaks simultaneously — so media needs verifying as genuinely local before cutover.
- What about a Squarespace shop?
- Commerce is a separate exercise from the content export. Products, variants and any order history need their own migration path into whichever WordPress commerce plugin is chosen, and that decision has more consequences for the build than the content move does.
- Do you work with businesses across Hampshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Portsmouth and the surrounding Hampshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Portsmouth businesses do you usually work with?
- Port, ferry and defence logistics systems, plus visitor operations for the waterfront attractions. Beyond that we work across Marine & Defence, Ports & Ferries, Higher Education, Retail and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Portsmouth?
- Yes — we work throughout South East, including Southampton, Chichester, Brighton. Portsmouth is an urban area of roughly 240,000+, and we take on work across the wider Hampshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
