Default Re: Best way to update a site while minimizing downtime

Thankya Dave!

Try and keep the "most important" text elements the same initially. Titles, meta info, internal anchors, main text. They can be slowly and methodically adjusted once live.
And that's really the key point. "Slow, methodical changes" implemented and adjusted over time.

I'd say three months would be a great time frame to work within. Get moving ASAP to make the most of the time you've got.

nametaginc, the recommendations you've received are by no means cast in stone. Use our suggestions as a framework for your own implementation plan.

Draft a logical plan that will have the least impact on your current rankings while implementing your site redesign.
