What we do

A legacy platform that slows the business down is a common reason clients come to us. We plan and lead the migration to a modern headless architecture, with content in a CMS such as Contentful and a front end built for speed and flexibility.

The role is not to write the code. It is to make sure the right architecture is chosen and the right code gets written, in the right order, by the right team. Most migrations fail on integration, not engineering, so we focus on the joins and the handover.

What's included

A migration without the drama.

01
Platform strategy
What to keep, what to rebuild and which architecture fits. Decisions that compound over years, made early.
02
Content & URL mapping
A clear map of content, structure and redirects, so nothing is lost and search visibility is protected.
03
Build & integration
Headless CMS such as Contentful, a performant front end and the integrations the business relies on, led end to end.
04
Handover
A documented technical handover so your team, or ours, can run and extend the platform with confidence.

Who it's for

When a platform holds you back.

A slow, dated platform
A legacy WordPress site that is slow, hard to maintain or no longer fits how the team works.
Multiple sites or markets
Several sites or regions that would be better served by one well-structured, scalable platform.
An in-house team that needs a lead
A capable team that needs a senior design and technology voice to plan and steer the migration.

Common questions

Migration, answered.

What is a headless CMS migration?

It is moving your site off a traditional platform such as WordPress onto a headless architecture, where the content lives in a modern CMS like Contentful and the front end is built separately. The result is a faster, more secure and more flexible website that is easier to manage and scale.

Why migrate from WordPress to headless?

Usually because a legacy platform is slowing the business down, becoming hard to maintain, or no longer fits how the team works. Headless gives you better performance, stronger security and a cleaner way to manage content across markets and channels.

Does Eden write the code, or lead the migration?

We lead the work and bring in the right specialists to build it. The role is to make sure the right architecture is chosen and the right code gets written, in the right order, with the technical handover led end to end. Most migrations fail on integration, not engineering, so we focus on the joins.

Will the migration affect my SEO?

Protecting search visibility is part of the plan. We map content and URLs, preserve structure and redirects, and treat the migration as a chance to improve performance and technical SEO rather than risk it.

How is a migration project priced?

Every project is scoped before we quote, so there are no shelf rates and no open-ended retainers. Most projects are fixed-fee against a clearly defined scope, so you see exactly what you are paying for and why.
