Migrating Legacy PHP Apps to Next.js: A Survival Guide

Migration Specialist•15 August 2024

Migrating Legacy PHP Apps to Next.js

We see many UK businesses stuck on old PHP versions (5.6 or 7.x) which are end-of-life. Security risks are high.

The Headless Approach

Keep the PHP backend as a CMS (using WordPress REST API) and build a new frontend in Next.js. This gives you modern performance while keeping the content team happy.

SEO Preservation

301 redirects are critical. Map every old URL to the new structure. A single broken link can tank your Google ranking.

Don't let legacy code hold you back. Migrate Today.
