Options on moving our website to WordPress
-
Hello
Our business currently uses Advisor Websites to host and update our website, and we were just looking to see what our options would be if we wanted to move to WordPress. If any clarification could be provided on subjects such as
What it would take to move/clone our existing site to move it over in its entirely to word press.
What would our issues and concerns be?
What would the timeline be?
How many hours would it take?
What do we need to do to get started?
Any help would be great
Kind regards -
Hi @fordenedimoivc, it all really depends on the site. Is it currently a WordPress installation that you just want us to host, maintain, and support for you, or are you using another platform?
We have some general tips on imports here:
https://transferto.wordpress.com/Generally WordPress.org to WordPress.com imports go quite smoothly.
But if you’d like to send a link to the site, we can likely get a better idea of how involved it would be. Also, if you just want to hire a developer to make the migration for you, we currently recommend this resource.

Thank you for the help.
Our website is https://www.nationalwealth.caI have made a project on code able to hopefully get some quotes on time and money costs. I was just wondering on how security is on WordPress, because if we move to WordPress we want our user/cilents to still be protected.

We take security very seriously here: https://wordpress.com/support/security/
As for moving the site here, it appears to be from a traditional HTML builder, so you’ll need to follow the steps at https://transferto.wordpress.com/drag-and-drophtml-site-builders/

Thank you for the info.
With Advisor websites we were given direct contact with a support team member that would assist us in developing our website. For example, something in our website would break or need to be updated, and they would be able to access our website and assist our Dev team us in fixing/building it – the response was usual within a 48hr window, does WordPress have anything similar to this?
kind regards
