Teams often jump to a full rebuild when the real problem is content structure, speed, or a CMS that fights them every day. The right call depends on what is actually broken.
Migrate when the bones are fine
If the offer is clear, the brand is solid, and the pain is WordPress plugins, Webflow limits, or slow hosting, a migration to Next.js and Sanity often gets you 80% of the value at half the cost of a rebuild.
Rebuild when the strategy moved
If positioning changed, the site has no single conversion path, or you are embarrassed to send paid traffic to it, a rebuild lets you fix structure and copy together instead of patching a broken funnel.
The question is not WordPress or Next.js. It is whether the current site still matches how you sell today.
