What our clients say
What impressed me most was how Toimi combined design sense with technical detail. Every idea was backed up by reasoning, and they weren't afraid to challenge us if it meant a stronger outcome.
We had a pretty complex setup request. They broke it down, kept us updated at every step, and delivered earlier than we thought possible.
Clear process, fast approvals, no drama. Exactly how a project should run.
We'll definitely continue working together.

What does a site upgrade mean, and how is it different from a full redesign for Santa Monica companies?
Site upgrades preserve much of an existing website while modernizing specific aspects: platform upgrades (moving from outdated CMS versions to current ones), technical modernization, accessibility upgrades (bringing old sites up to WCAG compliance), performance upgrades, capability additions. Full redesigns reimagine the entire site; upgrades modernize specifically what needs modernization. For Santa Monica companies with functional but aging sites, upgrades often produce better ROI than full rebuilds.
What site upgrade services does Toimi provide to Santa Monica clients?
Our upgrade services include CMS version upgrades (Drupal 7 to 10, outdated WordPress to current, Magento 1 to 2 migration), platform migrations, technical stack modernization, accessibility remediation and WCAG upgrades, performance upgrades, mobile responsiveness upgrades for old non-responsive sites, SEO modernization, integration upgrades (replacing legacy integrations with modern APIs).
Can Toimi handle Drupal version upgrades for Santa Monica clients stuck on old versions?
Yes — Drupal version upgrades are major projects we specialize in. Drupal 7's end-of-life creates urgent pressure. We handle migrations to Drupal 10 with comprehensive scope: content migration preserving URLs and metadata, custom module rewriting, theme redevelopment, integration updates, extensive QA. Drupal upgrades are typically 12-24 week projects for substantial sites.
How does Toimi handle legacy WordPress upgrades for Santa Monica clients?
WordPress sites running very old versions face multiple upgrade considerations: core version updates with testing of theme and plugin compatibility, potentially replacing outdated themes or plugins with modern alternatives, Gutenberg editor migration considerations, PHP version upgrades, hosting modernization.
Can Toimi upgrade Magento 1 sites to Magento 2 for Santa Monica e-commerce clients?
Yes — though we're honest that Magento 1 to Magento 2 migrations are essentially rebuild projects rather than true upgrades. Magento 2 has fundamentally different architecture. For Santa Monica clients still on Magento 1 (now unsupported), we typically recommend evaluating whether Magento 2 still makes sense vs. alternatives (Shopify Plus, headless approaches), fresh builds on target platform preserving data, comprehensive migration planning addressing extensions and customizations.
How does Toimi handle accessibility upgrades for Santa Monica sites needing WCAG compliance?
Accessibility upgrades systematically address existing compliance gaps: accessibility audit identifying specific WCAG violations, prioritized remediation plan addressing highest-impact issues first, code-level changes adding proper semantic HTML, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, color contrast fixes, accessibility statement development, ongoing testing ensuring remediation is comprehensive. For Santa Monica clients, accessibility upgrades address both ethical requirements and California's active ADA litigation environment.
How does Toimi handle SEO preservation during site upgrades for Santa Monica clients?
Upgrades must preserve existing SEO equity — URLs, content, authority, rankings. We manage SEO through upgrades: comprehensive URL mapping before migration, proper 301 redirects for changed URLs, structured data preservation and enhancement, content preservation with improvements where appropriate, metadata migration, internal linking structure preservation, post-launch monitoring for ranking or traffic changes.
What is the typical timeline and investment for site upgrade projects for Santa Monica clients?
Upgrade project scope varies enormously. Simple WordPress version upgrades with compatibility work: 2-6 weeks at $5K-$25K. Drupal 7 to 10 upgrades: 12-24 weeks at $75K-$300K. Magento 1 to Magento 2 migrations: 16-32 weeks at $150K-$750K. Comprehensive upgrades with redesign and functionality additions: 16-32 weeks at $100K-$500K. For Santa Monica clients, upgrade investment typically saves money long-term compared to neglecting aging sites until complete replacement becomes necessary.
