As mentioned above, SEO is something to consider when migrating, but I’m going to give you a small checklist so you consider the most important aspects

  1. Keep track of all the URLs that may change during the migration (This is important so you can create redirections for those, I will suggest using NextJS Redirections)
    a. Create a redirection for each content type to its migrated strapi page
    b. If a content type will not be migrated or will stop existing, redirect it to a home page or landing page
    c. The most important thing is that the user never gets a 404
    d. I recommend you using something like Screaming Frog

  2. Generate a proper sitemap and send it to Google Search Console, so bots can find and update the references

  3. Make sure your meta tags keep consistent when migrating, you can access the Facebook developer debugger for Open Graph

  4. Make sure to choose the right rendering strategy for your project, if you have more than 10000 entries I will suggest using SSR
