Why Vercel for this
Cutover gets a rollback plan. Redesigns go wrong in ways nobody predicted, and being able to go back turns a crisis into an afternoon.
Vercel is strongest at preview deployments per pull request and effortless incremental regeneration at scale. For website redesign that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.
The honest trade-off: pricing at very high bandwidth favours a self-managed CDN. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

What is included
- Baseline of current traffic, rankings and conversions before anything changes

- URL map with redirects for every page that moves
- Design and build to a performance budget
- Post-launch verification against the baseline
- Rollback plan for the cutover
Questions
Will we lose our Google rankings?
Not if URLs are mapped and redirected properly. Ranking loss after a redesign is almost always a migration mistake rather than an inevitability, and it is recoverable if caught early, which is why we verify afterwards.
Can we redesign in phases?
Often yes, and it lowers risk considerably. Section by section, with the old and new coexisting, beats a single big-bang launch.
How do we know it worked?
Against the baseline we took before starting, traffic, rankings, conversions and page speed, compared honestly in both directions.
Alternatives for website redesign
Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
