The short answer

If your business website runs on WordPress, you don't have to rebuild it. Oceanic Funnels can host your WordPress site alongside your CRM, funnels and automations. Our team migrates it with a migration plugin: you install the plugin on your current site and generate a secure, time-limited access link, and we move the site for you. Larger sites typically take one to three business days. WordPress hosting is an add-on; ask our team for pricing.

Why move WordPress next to your CRM

  • One login and one support team for your site, funnels and CRM.
  • Forms, chat and booking on your WordPress site connect to your contacts and automations.
  • No more chasing a separate host, plugins for every feature and a developer for every fix.

How the migration works

  1. Tell our team which site you want moved.
  2. In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add Plugin → Upload Plugin, upload the migration plugin we send you, then install and activate it.
  3. Open the plugin from the sidebar and click Generate secure access link. Choose how long it stays active, from 24 hours to 7 days.
  4. Send us the link. Your WordPress password is never shared.
  5. We migrate the site. Larger sites usually take one to three business days.
  6. Review the migrated site, then we point your domain to it.

You can revoke or regenerate the access link at any time, and it expires automatically when its timer runs out.

Before you migrate

  • Make sure you have administrator access to the current WordPress site.
  • Take a backup with your current host.
  • List any custom code or unusual plugins so we can check them.
  • Plan the domain switch for a quiet time.

Or rebuild in the website builder

If your WordPress site is small or outdated, rebuilding it in the website builder can be simpler: no plugins to update, built-in forms and chat, and unlimited sites on every plan. Keep the same URLs or add 301 redirects so you don't lose rankings.
