Website Migration Check

Compare your old and new website before visitors and search engines find the mistakes. Enter both addresses and get a prioritized, evidence-backed migration report.

Old site already down? Paste its sitemap content instead

Use this when the old website itself is no longer reachable, so its sitemap can't be fetched automatically. You can leave the "Old" address above empty — the old domain is read from this pasted content instead — or fill it in if you'd rather be explicit; either way it doesn't need to be reachable.

Example: https://old.example.com and https://example.com — no registration required. Checks up to 50 old URLs. If the old site is already down, paste its sitemap content instead of an address.

What gets checked

The report reports observable technical differences between the two sites — it does not, and cannot, promise that a migration preserved rankings, traffic, conversions, or search visibility.

Redirects
Permanent vs. temporary redirects, chains, loops, and redirects to unrelated domains.
Homepage catch-all
Many unrelated old URLs all redirecting to the new homepage instead of an equivalent page.
Sitemap coverage
Old URLs missing from the new sitemap, and new URLs not represented in the old one.
Indexability
Robots.txt access, X-Robots-Tag, meta robots tags, and canonical URLs on the new site.
Metadata and content
Title, description, heading, and content changes between old and new pages, where both are available.
Old-host links
Internal links on the new site that still point back to the old host.

Privacy and crawl etiquette

Reports are private by default and only visible to whoever ran the check; sharing a report is an explicit, opt-in action. Running a check makes a limited number of public web requests to both submitted websites — at most 50 old URLs and 50 corresponding new pages — from an identifiable scanner that respects robots.txt, similar to how a search engine crawler would behave.
