The bottom line
Teams routinely scope a rebuild around design and development and treat SEO as a post-launch concern. By then the damage is already shipped: redirects are missing, URL patterns changed, and the index has been told the old pages are gone. Recovery then takes months of lost revenue. in Belfast A dedicated migration workstream front-loads the SEO-critical decisions — URL strategy, redirect logic, parity requirements and crawl control — into the build itself, and instruments the launch so problems surface immediately. It is the cheapest insurance available on any replatform or redesign.
