Do I lose my existing content when I switch from Byword?

No — content you've already published stays live wherever it's currently hosted. Switching means new pages go through Omnitopical's topical map going forward; it doesn't delete or move anything you've already published elsewhere.

Will my rankings drop during the switch?

Existing published pages and their URLs aren't touched, so there's nothing to lose ranking on unless you separately choose to redirect or replace them. New pages from Omnitopical's topical map are additions, not replacements, unless you decide otherwise.

Can I run Byword and Omnitopical at the same time during the transition?

Yes — there's no exclusivity requirement. Some teams keep using Byword for its specific job while Omnitopical builds out the topical map in parallel, then fully transition once they're comfortable.

How long does the switch actually take?

Connecting a domain and describing your business takes minutes; Omnitopical starts planning the topical map immediately after. There's no migration project to schedule — it's closer to onboarding a new tool than a data migration.
