What Is a TYPO3 Migration?

A TYPO3 migration moves everything—content, templates, multilingual structures, user data, SEO metadata—from your TYPO3 installation to a modern platform like Next.js, WordPress, or a headless CMS. That means content extraction, URL mapping, redirect implementation, and enough QA that you're not losing sleep over data loss or tanking search rankings.

Your Current Site May Be a Liability

Common gaps we find in nearly every audit.

TypoScript has a shrinking talent pool

Risk: Finding developers who actually know it is getting harder, and when you do find them, they're expensive.

Extension compatibility breaks with every major TYPO3 version upgrade

Risk: Miss a cycle and you're stuck on an outdated version with security holes nobody's patching.

Multilingual setups make migration genuinely risky

Risk: Get it wrong and you've destroyed your hreflang structures—international SEO gone overnight.

TYPO3's tightly coupled frontend fights modern performance patterns at every turn

Risk: Core Web Vitals slip, organic traffic follows.

Content editors hate the backend

Risk: Publishing slows down, your marketing team gets frustrated, and suddenly everything needs a developer to touch it.

TYPO3 hosting needs specialized PHP infrastructure

Risk: You're paying for server resources that edge-deployed sites don't need.

What Your Website Could Look Like

Custom-designed for your industry. No templates. No stock photos.

How We Build This Right

Every safeguard, built in from Day 1.

Full Content Extraction

We pull every page, content element, media asset, and metadata field straight from your TYPO3 database with custom extraction scripts. No manual copy-paste, no records left behind.

SEO Redirect Mapping

Every TYPO3 URL gets a verified 301 redirect mapped to its new destination. We validate the complete map before cutover—not after.

Multilingual Preservation

Language tree structures, hreflang tags, and locale-specific content get mapped to your new platform's i18n system. Nothing gets lost in translation.

Zero-Downtime Cutover

We use a blue-green deployment strategy, so your old site keeps serving traffic until the new one is fully verified. The DNS switch takes seconds.

Extension Audit & Replacement

We catalog every TYPO3 extension, find modern equivalents where they exist, and build custom solutions where they don't.

Post-Migration Security Hardening

Security headers, CSP policies, and vulnerability scanning go in from day one. We don't just move your site—we leave it in better shape than we found it.

What We Build

Purpose-built features for your industry.

TYPO3 to Next.js

Static generation and ISR deliver sub-second page loads that TYPO3's PHP rendering simply can't match.

TYPO3 to WordPress

Gutenberg-based editing with an interface your content team can actually figure out in hours, not weeks.

TYPO3 to Headless CMS

Sanity, Contentful, or Strapi backends with API-first content delivery for whatever frontend you're running.

TypoScript Template Conversion

We reverse-engineer your TypoScript templates into clean React components or WordPress block themes.

Database Migration Scripts

Custom Node.js scripts extract and transform TYPO3's relational data into your target schema.

Automated QA & Regression Testing

Playwright test suites compare every migrated page against the original—visual parity, content parity, no surprises at launch.

Built on a Modern, Secure Stack

Our Development Process

From discovery to launch. Quality at every step.

TYPO3 Audit & Discovery

Week 1

First, we inventory your TYPO3 installation: content types, extensions, TypoScript configs, multilingual trees, third-party integrations. You get a detailed migration spec before anything moves.

Architecture & Platform Selection

Week 2

Then we nail down the platform. Based on your team's actual needs, we recommend Next.js, WordPress, or a headless CMS stack and design the information architecture, content model, and redirect strategy together.

Content Migration & Build

Weeks 3–5

Build and migration run in parallel. Custom extraction scripts pull content directly from TYPO3's database while we build the new frontend and wire up your CMS. Content flows into the new structure automatically.

QA, UAT & Redirect Verification

Week 6

Before launch, we run automated visual regression tests, manual content review, and full redirect map validation. Your team gets staging access for user acceptance testing—no surprises.

Cutover & Post-Launch Support

Week 7

Then we flip the switch. Zero-downtime DNS cutover, real-time monitoring, and 30 days of post-launch support including SEO rank tracking and performance tuning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most TYPO3 to Next.js migrations take 5–8 weeks, depending on content volume, multilingual complexity, and how many custom extensions are in play. A 200-page single-language site typically wraps up in 5 weeks. Enterprise sites with 10+ languages and custom integrations can run 10–12 weeks. We'll give you a detailed timeline during the free assessment.

Not if redirects are handled correctly—and we're obsessive about this. We generate a complete 301 redirect map for every URL on your TYPO3 site, validate it before launch, and monitor rankings for 30 days after cutover. Most clients see rankings stabilize within 2–4 weeks and start improving within 8, driven by better Core Web Vitals on the new platform.

Yes. TYPO3's language tree structure—fallback chains, locale-specific overrides, all of it—gets mapped to your headless CMS's localization model. Sanity, Contentful, and Strapi all handle i18n well. We preserve hreflang relationships and make sure your editors can manage translations without changing how they work.

We audit every installed extension and sort them into three buckets: direct equivalent available, needs a custom rebuild, or no longer needed. Common ones like news, forms, and search get mapped to native features in your new stack. Custom extensions get rebuilt as API routes or serverless functions. You get the full compatibility report before we start.

It depends on your team. WordPress makes sense for organizations that want familiar WYSIWYG editing and a broad plugin ecosystem. Next.js with a headless CMS is a better fit when performance, developer experience, and scalability are the priority. We help you decide based on your content team's technical comfort and what you're actually trying to achieve.

TYPO3 migrations start at $8,000 for straightforward single-language sites under 200 pages. Mid-complexity projects with multilingual content and custom extensions typically run $14,000–$25,000. Large enterprise migrations—10+ languages, thousands of pages, complex integrations—start at $25,000. Every project gets a fixed-fee quote. No surprise invoices.
