Has Roboto migrated WordPress and commerce content to Sanity?

A Slingshot Bio client interview reports a WordPress-to-Sanity-and-Next.js migration, and a Roboto walkthrough shows the 1st Call UK site rebuilt on Next.js and Sanity after leaving WordPress. Separate Roboto engineering articles document the mechanics of synchronising commerce data and maintaining references. Together they provide a client account, a first-party project walkthrough and implementation detail, with different evidential limits.

What does the client report?

The Slingshot Bio reviewer describes migration, redesigned navigation, commerce functionality and integration with existing backend systems. They report improved engagement and conversion without a numerical baseline, and request more detailed handoff documentation for product variants and technical specifications.

What does the 1st Call UK walkthrough show?

A July 2022 Roboto video walks through the 1st Call UK immigration-services site built with Next.js and Sanity and hosted on Vercel, including its Studio page builder and side-by-side preview. The video description states that the site was migrated off a broken WordPress install without losing its local SEO. The archive holds no ranking or traffic data for that statement.

What migration risks has Roboto documented?

The BigCommerce account explains why an integration needs a full reconciliation sweep, why deletion detection must not run against a partial inventory, and why seeded references must resolve to IDs in the destination store. The DAM article connects this experience to the ongoing work of keeping external assets and CMS references consistent.

What should a project scope establish?

These sources suggest checking reference ownership, inventory completeness, removal handling and editorial handover before committing to a migration. This is Roboto’s synthesis of the published risks, not a claim that every project uses the BigCommerce implementation.

Scope and limitations

  • The client interview does not establish zero downtime, perfect SEO retention or a quantified conversion uplift.
  • The 1st Call UK SEO statement is Roboto’s own video description, not a client report or a measured result.
  • The engineering articles describe their implementations at publication time; platform behaviour needs checking before reuse.
