Migrating your WordPress on the Costa del Sol: Estepona, Marbella and Málaga

18 August 2026

If you run a business on the Costa del Sol — a restaurant in Marbella, a clinic in Estepona, a law firm in Málaga — and your website runs on WordPress, this article is for you. We are from Andalusia, we work with businesses from around here and we have seen it all on the websites of the area. Here is what migrating your WordPress to Next.js looks like without losing your local rankings.

Why speed matters (even more) for a local business

Your Costa del Sol customer looks for you on their phone, often on 4G, often searching "restaurant Marbella" or "dentist Estepona" while hungry or in a hurry. If your website takes four seconds to load, they go to the one next door before they even see you. For a local business, speed is not a technical luxury: it is not losing the customer who was already looking for you.

What we take care of in a local migration

  • Your Google Business Profile and your local SEO intact: same URLs, same contact details, same texts that already rank for your town.
  • Local business structured data (address, opening hours, phone) properly set up for Google.
  • Instant loading on mobile, which is where your customer is searching from.
  • No plugins breaking right in high season, when you get the most visits.

"I thought it was WordPress and it was Wix"

A heads-up, because it happens to us a lot around here: not everyone has what they think they have. Businesses from the area have come to us convinced they had WordPress when they were actually on Wix or Squarespace — which completely changes how the migration works. We explain it in detail in this article. That is why the first thing we do is check what your website is really built with, before promising you anything.

You don't need to know anything technical. You give us your website address; we tell you what it is built with, whether it can be migrated or has to be rebuilt, and what you would gain. In plain language, no jargon.

How we work with local businesses

A fixed price before we start, direct contact (no support tickets at three in the morning) and jurisdiction in Granada. For many local business websites our Express plan is enough, starting at €600: your fast, maintenance-free website in a few days. And if your website is bigger, we give you the real quote, with no surprises.

Do you have a business in Estepona, Marbella, Málaga or nearby and your WordPress website is giving you trouble? Write to us for a free audit: we look at your website, tell you what is wrong with it and what you would gain by migrating. No commitment and straight talk.
