Modernise Your Joomla Website with Duda: A Seamless Transformation

Is your ageing Joomla website holding your business back? Ready for a modern, user-friendly platform without the technical overhead? Our expert team specialises in transforming outdated Joomla sites into stunning, high-performance Duda websites—no technical expertise required on your part!

Why Joomla Users Are Switching CMS to Duda's Modern Platform

If you've been running a Joomla website for years, you've likely experienced the growing pains: complex updates, security vulnerabilities, plugin compatibility issues, and a steep learning curve. Duda offers the perfect escape from these legacy challenges.


Duda's intuitive platform eliminates the technical burdens that come with maintaining a Joomla site. No more worrying about security patches, PHP version conflicts, or database management. Instead, enjoy a streamlined experience with drag-and-drop editing that doesn't sacrifice professional quality or customisation.


Modern businesses need responsive, fast-loading websites that perform flawlessly on all devices—something that often requires extensive customisation in Joomla. Duda delivers this out-of-the-box, with superior page speed scores and automatic device optimisation that will dramatically improve your user experience and search rankings.



Our transition experts understand both Joomla's architecture and Duda's capabilities, allowing us to preserve your content, SEO value, and functionality while upgrading your site's performance, security, and visual appeal. It's time to leave behind Joomla's technical complexities and embrace a platform designed for today's web standards.

Common FAQs When Migrating a Website to Joomla

See some general questions and answers below or call us on 0450 616 000

  • My Joomla site has years of content and custom extensions. Can all of this be moved to Duda?

    Yes, we can migrate all your valuable content from Joomla to Duda, including articles, blog posts, images, and media. For custom extensions and components, we analyse their functionality and implement equivalent features using Duda's widget system or integrations. Our extensive experience with Joomla's database structure allows us to extract and transform even the most complex content relationships, ensuring nothing important is left behind.

  • How complicated is the migration process from Joomla to Duda?

    While migrating from Joomla to Duda involves technical complexity due to Joomla's database structure, our team handles all of this for you. The process requires expert knowledge of both platforms, which is why DIY migrations often fail. We follow a proven methodology that includes content extraction, structural mapping, design implementation, and thorough testing. For you, the process is simple—provide access to your current site and collaborate on design preferences, while we manage the technical heavy lifting.

  • Will I still be able to manage my website content easily after switching from Joomla?

    Absolutely! Many clients find Duda significantly easier to use than Joomla. Duda's intuitive interface eliminates the learning curve associated with Joomla's admin panel. You'll be able to edit pages, add content, and manage your site without technical knowledge. We provide training tailored to your team's needs, but most users find they require minimal guidance due to Duda's user-friendly design. The days of searching for documentation to complete simple tasks will be behind you.

  • How will switching from Joomla to Duda affect my website's performance and SEO?

    Most clients see substantial performance improvements after migrating from Joomla to Duda. Older Joomla sites often suffer from database bloat, outdated code, and plugin overhead that slow down page loading. Duda's modern architecture and global CDN typically deliver dramatically faster page speeds. For SEO, we implement proper redirects, preserve meta information, maintain URL structures where beneficial, and ensure all on-page SEO elements transfer correctly. With Duda's superior performance, most sites also gain SEO benefits from improved Core Web Vitals scores.


  • My Joomla site has a membership/e-commerce component. Can this functionality be preserved in Duda?

    Yes, we can implement equivalent functionality for most Joomla components. For e-commerce, we can integrate Duda with platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, or utilise Duda's own e-commerce capabilities. For membership areas, we can implement solutions that match or improve upon your current setup. During our initial assessment, we'll catalogue all your site's functional requirements and propose modern solutions that maintain or enhance your current capabilities while eliminating the technical complexity of Joomla's extension ecosystem.
