Directoryz

Plan a move from an existing directory site

A directory migration includes content, URLs, and operational habits. A successful data import alone does not complete the move.

Directoryz editorial guide · Updated September 7, 2026

Put it into practice

Inventory important pages, map records to new destinations, and verify the visitor journeys your old site supported. Plan old-URL handling explicitly.

Worked example · illustrative

What this looks like

A provider profile with inbound links needs a mapped replacement, not merely a similarly named new record.

Before you move on

Can a visitor using an old link still reach the intended information?

Write down the evidence for your answer. If you cannot point to a concrete example, revise the work before treating it as ready.

A repeatable workflow

  1. Identify the current public destination.
  2. Test the new destination with representative pages.
  3. Record how visitors and editors will find the published directory.

Where Directoryz fits

Directoryz supports directory publishing, listings and custom fields, CSV imports, submission review, and workspace operations. These guides include editorial workflows you can carry out with a worksheet or your own tools. They do not imply that every audit, reminder, verification, or integration is automated by Directoryz.
