How CMS Migration Works

Migrating a website means exporting your content — posts, pages, media references, categories, and tags — from one content management system and importing it into another. The process varies depending on whether your source platform offers a public API, an XML export, or requires database-level access.

LeaveWP simplifies this by connecting to your existing CMS through its public API (no passwords or admin access required), then converting your content into the format your destination expects — whether that is MDX files for Next.js, JSON for a headless CMS like Payload or Strapi, or structured markdown for Astro and Hugo.

Every guide below covers what gets migrated, what you will need to rebuild manually (like custom shortcodes or theme-specific layouts), estimated time for a typical site, and the exact steps to follow. We also include SEO migration checklists to help you preserve search rankings with proper redirects and canonical URLs.

Browse by source platform below, or use the CMS comparison guides to decide which destination is right for your project before starting.
