Squarespace zu WordPress migrieren 2026

Squarespace exports are partial. expect to rebuild design in a theme and manually handle commerce. This guide minimises traffic loss during DNS cutover.

So haben wir diese Schritte verifiziert

Vor Veröffentlichung spielen wir jeden Schritt mindestens bei zwei Marken (host-spezifisch) oder zweimal an unterschiedlichen Tagen (generisch) durch. Konsole, regionale UI-Drifts und verschobene Buttons werden festgehalten und sofort korrigiert. Pfade und Screenshots quartalsweise gegengecheckt. Bei DNS/SSL/Billing prüfen wir Recovery-Pfade und verlinken offizielle Docs.

  1. 1

    Step 1: Export what Squarespace allows

    Use XML export for blog/pages where available; download images manually or via tools for galleries Squarespace does not export cleanly.

  2. 2

    Step 2: Install WordPress on target hosting

    Provision hosting, SSL, and WordPress; pick a flexible theme (Astra/Kadence) to approximate layout.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Import content

    Tools → Import → WordPress. upload XML. Reassign authors and check media attachments.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Rebuild key pages

    Landing pages often need block editor or page builder recreation. treat this as a redesign with content reuse.

  5. 5

    Step 5: Map URLs and prepare redirects

    Spreadsheet old Squarespace URLs to new WordPress permalinks; implement 301s via redirect plugin or server rules.

  6. 6

    Step 6: Staging QA

    Test forms, analytics, and mobile layouts before DNS switch.

  7. 7

    Step 7: Cut DNS and monitor

    Lower TTL, switch A/CNAME, watch Search Console for crawl errors post-launch.
