MOVING ON FROM WORDPRESS
Move your WordPress site in four steps, and leave the old one exactly as it is.
Connect your site, review what's there, choose what comes across, then import. Pages, posts, media, menus, forms and your WooCommerce shop land in Six and Two, rebuilt to load faster, while your WordPress site keeps running exactly as it was.
Four steps: connect, review, choose, import
Your login is used only for the import
Nothing changes on your WordPress site
LEAVING WORDPRESS, THE OLD WAY
Leaving WordPress usually means losing something.
Moving a website usually means copying every page by hand: the home page, your services, your about page, the blog posts you wrote at midnight two years ago. Miss one and it's gone.
A shop makes it worse. Products, categories, images and variants copied wrong send customers to broken pages or an empty cart.
The safest way out used to mean touching the old site anyway: logging in, exporting, hoping the export held everything. One wrong click and the only live version of your business goes down while you're mid-move.
FOUR STEPS, NO DRAMA
How the WordPress importer works
Four steps, start to finish. Nothing moves until you say so.
Connect
Log into WordPress once, just for the import. We use it to read your site, nothing else.
Review
See every page, post, image, menu and form we found, so nothing surprises you later.
Choose
Tick what comes across: all of it, or just the parts you want, including your WooCommerce shop.
Import
Your pages land in Six and Two rebuilt to load faster, while your WordPress site keeps running exactly as it was.
HOW THE MOVE PLAYS OUT
Four steps, looked at up close.
Here's exactly what connecting, choosing and importing look like, in order.
CONNECT & REVIEW
Connect your site, then see everything it found before anything moves.
Connect is a login, not a leap: sign into WordPress the way you always do, and the importer reads your site there and then. It never changes anything while it looks.
Review comes next: every page, post, image, menu and form it found, laid out so you can check nothing's missing before you decide what comes across.
Connect with the WordPress login you already use
Review every page, post, menu and form it found
Nothing moves until you tick 'import'
CHOOSE WHAT COMES ACROSS
Choose what comes across, right down to your WooCommerce shop.
Choose is where you're in charge. Bring everything across in one go, or pick just the pages and posts you want and leave the rest behind.
Running a shop? Your WooCommerce products, categories and pages are part of the list too, so your store moves with the rest of the site, not separately.
Pick pages, posts and media, all or some
Bring menus and forms across too
Include your WooCommerce shop, products and all
IMPORT & LEAVE THE OLD SITE ALONE
Import your pages, and leave the old site exactly as it is.
Import lands your chosen pages in Six and Two, rebuilt as it goes so they load faster than they did on WordPress.
Your old WordPress site doesn't go anywhere. It keeps running exactly as it was, so there's no dead link, no downtime, and no rush to flip the switch.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOUR BUSINESS
What moving over gets you
Moving platforms is supposed to be the hard part. Here's what changes once the importer does the heavy lifting.
A move you don't have to babysit
Connect, review, choose, import: four steps instead of a weekend of copying pages one by one.
Nothing breaks while you move
Your WordPress site keeps running exactly as it is, so customers never see a broken page mid-move.
Your shop comes with you
Products, pages, posts, media, menus, forms and your WooCommerce shop all come across together.
Pages that load faster
Pages are rebuilt during import, so visitors get a quicker site the moment you switch over.
An archive if you want one
Tick the box and an archive plugin keeps a restorable copy of your old site, installed only if you ask for it.
COMPARED TO MOVING IT YOURSELF
A typical WordPress move vs Six and Two
Moving a WordPress site yourself
- Copy each page by hand. Hours of copy-paste, page by page.
- Hope the export caught everything. Exports miss plugins and custom fields.
- Touch the old site to move it. Logins, exports and edits on the live site.
- Rebuild the shop separately. Products and categories moved by hand, or not at all.
- No way back if something's missing. Once it's gone from the export, it's gone.
Six and Two
- Four steps. Connect, review, choose, import.
- A full review first. See every page, post, menu and form before anything moves.
- The old site left exactly as it is. It's only read, never changed.
- Your WooCommerce shop comes too. Products and pages migrate together.
- An archive you can restore from. Installed only if you tick the box.
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE WORDPRESS IMPORTER
Your WordPress move, answered
Will it change my WordPress site?
No. It reads the site and leaves it exactly as it is. The archive plugin is installed only if you tick the box.
What comes across in the move?
Pages, posts, media, menus, forms and a WooCommerce shop all come across, with an archive you can restore from.
Do I need to give you my WordPress password?
Your login is used only for the import, to connect and read your site. It's not used for anything else.
What happens to my existing mailing list?
Your list comes in separately through Six and Two's own list import, mapped column by column to fields you already have.
Can I choose what comes across, or does everything move at once?
You choose. After the review step, tick what you want: all of it, or just pages and posts, or the shop too.
Will my pages load slower after the move?
No. Pages are rebuilt during import, so they load faster, not slower.
What if I want to keep a copy of the old site?
Tick the archive box during import and an archive plugin installs on the WordPress site, giving you a copy you can restore from.
