Two ways to migrate from Squarespace, Wix, or Cargo to WordPress and tools you own — learn to do it yourself in a workshop, or have us handle the whole move.
The math
A basic Squarespace plan costs $192–396 per year, forever. A WordPress site with an open-source theme on independent hosting can cost less than $40 per year, and the site is yours. Over five years, that’s roughly $1,000 back in your pocket.
Path one: do it with us — the Mudanza workshop
$300, everything included.
A two-hour, one-on-one working session (English o español) where we map out your migration together, walk through every step, and get you unstuck on the parts everyone fears — yes, including DNS. You leave with the Mudanza packet: a plain-language, step-by-step guide covering export, hosting setup, theme installation, content import, domain transfer, and a troubleshooting section for when things get weird. Most people complete their migration over a weekend.
Good for: anyone a little curious about how their website actually works, with more time than budget, who likes the idea of never needing a developer for the small stuff again.
And if you change your mind: book a full migration within 30 days and your workshop fee comes off the price. Knowledge is never wasted; neither is the $300.
Path two: we do it for you — full migration
Most migrations land between $600 and $1,200, depending on the size and state of your site. You’ll get a fixed quote up front — the number we say is the number you pay. And, if you decide to host through our green hosting service, the first year is free.
Included in every migration:
- The move. Your content — pages, posts, images — rebuilt in WordPress with a clean, open-source theme suited to your work.
- The setup. Low-cost hosting configured, domain pointed, email intact, backups running, nothing broken.
- The training. A one-on-one session covering everything you need to run your own site, plus the same plain-language Mudanza packet to return to.
- The handoff. Full ownership. All passwords, all access, no dependency on us.
Good for: working artists and small studios whose time is worth more than the difference, larger sites, shops, and anyone whose reaction to “DNS” is “absolutely not.”
Which one?
If your site is a portfolio under 15 pages and you have a free weekend: the workshop will probably do it, and you’ll own the skill afterward. If your site is bigger, sells things, or you simply want it handled: get a quote. If you genuinely can’t tell: send us a link to your site and we’ll tell you honestly, including “honestly, just take the workshop.”
Who it’s not for
Complex web applications, membership platforms, or heavy custom functionality. (Those might be a custom build. Ask us.)
