Move your site perfectly, without missing a single image
When you export and move WordPress content, LUX Content Migration actually re-hosts the images inside your posts on the new site too. Automatically reconnecting links in your content to the new addresses is available in the Pro version, and even large sites are processed safely in chunks.
Accurate image re-hosting
WordPress's default importer has image downloads turned off by default, and even when you turn them on, links in your content often stay as they were. Even the free version of LUX Content Migration downloads the actual image files and uploads them to the new site, and the Pro version automatically and precisely reconnects addresses in your content to the new ones.
Automatic redirects that protect your SEO
The biggest losses after a move are search rankings and external backlinks. Installed on the old site, the Pro version creates 301 redirects that automatically send visitors arriving at old addresses to the new ones.
Safe even for large sites
Even with thousands of posts and images, everything is processed in safe-sized units (chunks). First-time users can keep the defaults, and experienced users can adjust the size themselves.
