When moving websites and blogs from HubSpot to WordPress we find great code and pretty poor code. When we run into the pretty poor code during a migration we always make the necessary corrections as part of the move after consulting with the client.
In this HubSpot example an image URL is waaaaaaaaaay too long.
There are 238 sub directories below. Yikes.
This URL is 2176 characters long.

The redacted URL is of a blog on a HubSpot sub-domain. Most clients prefer to keep their blog and website on one domain and not use a sub-domain.
This means using something like domain.com/blog instead of blog.domain.com. One advantage of this is that all links pointing to the website and blog now point to one domain name instead of two.
Business goals vary so using the same domain for a website and blog is not a recommendation for all situations 100% of the time.
