GoDaddy to TradesPro Migration Guide
Move from GoDaddy's website builder without losing your domain, content, or SEO. No tech skills needed — we handle the entire migration in 48 hours.
You give us a few details about your current site. We rebuild it, move your domain, and go live — without you touching a single setting or losing a day of Google ranking.
Most tradies put off switching platforms because they're worried about breaking something — their domain, their Google ranking, their email. We've heard it all.
The truth is, a TradesPro migration doesn't work like a DIY platform transfer. You're not copying files or changing DNS settings yourself. You fill out a short intake form, we do the entire job, and you wake up with a faster, better-looking site on the same domain you've always had.
We've handled hundreds of migrations from GoDaddy, WordPress, and hipages. Not one tradie has ever lost their domain name, their email, or dropped out of Google entirely as a result of a migration we managed.
The only step that involves you is telling us where your current site lives. We handle the rest.
Fill out a short form. Give us your current website URL, your domain registrar login, and any content notes. Takes under 10 minutes.
Our team rebuilds your site on the TradesPro platform. Same services, same content — but faster, mobile-friendly, and designed to convert visitors into calls.
We update your DNS settings and point your domain at the new site. Your old site stays live until the new one is ready — no gap, no broken links.
All redirects are set, Google Search Console is updated, and your new site starts indexing. You keep the rankings you've earned.
We built the migration process specifically so tradies never have to deal with the technical side. These are the things our team takes off your plate entirely.
Start your migration →The most common things tradies ask before they decide to switch.
No. We preserve your existing URLs wherever possible, set up all redirects, and migrate your title tags, meta descriptions, and page content. Your Google Business Profile stays linked to your new site and your local ranking signals carry over intact. Most TradesPro migrations see rankings hold steady within the first week.
Most migrations complete within 48 hours of you giving us the go-ahead. We rebuild your site, set up all the redirects, and flip the DNS switch once everything is confirmed. More complex WordPress sites with lots of custom pages may take a little longer — we'll let you know upfront.
No. You fill out a short intake form telling us where your current site is and provide any login details we need. From there, our team handles everything — domain transfer, content migration, DNS, SSL certificate, and go-live. You don't touch a setting.
Your email keeps working throughout. We migrate the website separately from your email DNS records, so your @yourdomain.com.au addresses are never interrupted. If you'd also like to move your email hosting after go-live, we can walk you through that as a separate step — but the website migration itself doesn't touch your email.
Yes. Your domain name is yours — we just point it at your new TradesPro site. Your customers, your Google listing, and your business cards all keep working with the exact same web address. If your domain is registered through GoDaddy, Crazy Domains, or another registrar, you can leave it there — we just update where it points.
