Migrate From Drupal to WordPress

Drupal is enterprise-grade and enterprise-effort. We migrate your nodes, taxonomy and content types to WordPress, lower maintenance, friendlier editing, same content.

From $690 2-4 weeks

What Drupal lets you take

  • Nodes (articles, pages, custom content) via migration tooling
  • Taxonomy terms and vocabularies
  • Media and file attachments
  • Users, roles and metadata (as needed)

What we rebuild by hand

  • Drupal theme (rebuilt as a WordPress theme)
  • Modules (mapped to WordPress plugins)
  • Views and custom field displays
  • Path/alias URL patterns (need 301 mapping)
  • Custom entity and workflow logic

When Drupal is more than you need

Drupal is a serious platform for serious applications, and that is exactly the problem for many sites running on it. If your Drupal build is really a content site wearing an enterprise exoskeleton, you are paying for complexity you do not use: specialist developers, careful updates, and editing workflows ordinary staff avoid. Migrating to WordPress keeps your content and structure while shedding the overhead.

Why sites move off Drupal

  • Developer dependency. Even small changes often need a Drupal specialist.
  • Maintenance and updates. Major-version upgrades (the infamous D7 to D9/D10 jumps) are costly projects in themselves.
  • Editorial friction. WordPress is far gentler for non-technical publishers.
  • Total cost. Smaller talent pool and heavier upkeep make Drupal pricier to run.

How the Drupal migration works

  1. Map the content model: Drupal content types and fields to WordPress post types and custom fields (ACF), taxonomy to taxonomy.
  2. Migrate nodes, terms and media using database-level tooling, preserving relationships.
  3. Rebuild the theme on WordPress to match your current design.
  4. Replace modules with WordPress plugins for the features you rely on.
  5. 301-map path aliases, migrate metadata, and launch after side-by-side verification.

Structure is the priority

Drupal sites tend to be large and highly structured, so faithful content-model mapping matters more than anything. We take the time to translate content types and taxonomy correctly, then preserve URLs so search rankings transfer, the same rigor described in our migration SEO checklist.

Frequently asked questions

Can a large Drupal site be migrated to WordPress?

Yes. Nodes, taxonomy, media and users migrate with database-level tooling. The key is mapping Drupal's content types and fields onto WordPress post types and custom fields, which we do deliberately.

What about my Drupal modules and Views?

Modules are Drupal-specific; we replace the features you rely on with WordPress plugins, and rebuild Views-driven displays using WordPress queries and templates.

Will my content structure be preserved?

Yes, content types become post types, fields become custom fields, and taxonomy is mapped one-to-one, so relationships and structure carry over.

Does migrating from Drupal affect SEO?

No, we 301-map path aliases, migrate metadata and preserve structure. Rankings hold and the lighter stack often improves performance.

How much does a Drupal migration cost?

From $499 depending on content volume, content-model complexity and modules replaced. The calculator gives an instant range; we confirm a fixed price after review.
