Average load time improvement: 65-80% (Modeled estimate from our 1,265-site scan TTFB data. Actual improvement depends on hosting and configuration.)
Performance
Performance isn't vanity — it's conversion. Every 100ms improvement in load time increases revenue 1-2% for e-commerce. For a site doing $10M annually, a migration that cuts load time by 2 seconds is worth $200,000-$400,000 in additional revenue per year.
Cost
Developer Velocity
Teams on modern frameworks ship faster, iterate more, and retain talent longer. The framework choice affects every sprint, every quarter, every year.
Security
The Payback Period
A typical WordPress-to-Astro migration for a mid-size content site costs $15,000-$40,000. Based on the cost savings, performance revenue lift, and security risk reduction, the payback period is 3-8 months. After that, every month is pure gain.
This isn't theoretical. These are the numbers organizations report after migration. The ROI case for modern infrastructure is the easiest business case most CTOs will ever make.
