Migrate from Aweber to HighLevel

AWeber subscribers migrate as HighLevel contacts. All standard fields (first name, last name, email, phone) map directly. AWeber system ID stored as a custom field for traceability and delta-run de-duplication. During migration, each contact receives the original AWeber ID in a field such as Source_AWeber_ID__c, enabling future sync and conflict detection.

AWeber lists map to HighLevel tags by default — each list name becomes a tag applied to all members. If you need to report by list without using tags, we create a custom field (e.g., Source_List__c) and apply list names as values. Your admin decides before migration runs.

AWeber custom fields map to HighLevel contact custom fields. Field type translation: AWeber text/dropdown/checkbox become equivalent HighLevel field types. Up to 25 AWeber custom fields supported; HighLevel has no practical limit. We create fields in HighLevel before importing data, ensuring that field names conform to API naming rules and that picklist options are set correctly for dropdowns and multi-selects.

AWeber subscriber tags migrate directly to HighLevel contact tags. Tag names are preserved exactly as they appear in AWeber, including case sensitivity. Tags used for behavioral segmentation (e.g., 'opened-email-q1') remain actionable in HighLevel SmartLists and Workflow triggers, allowing you to target contacts based on past interactions without rebuilding logic.

AWeber broadcast campaigns (one-time sends) have no persistent record in HighLevel equivalent. Historical campaign send data is preserved in AWeber reports. Rebuilt campaigns in HighLevel use your AWeber campaign names and schedules as reference documents, allowing you to recreate sends, set audience filters, and configure tracking metrics in the new platform.

AWeber automations (follow-up sequences triggered by subscribe, click, or tag actions) must be rebuilt as HighLevel Workflows. We export your automation definitions — trigger types, delay durations, message content, and conditions — as a rebuild reference for your HighLevel admin.

AWeber segments using AND/OR logic on tags and custom fields translate to HighLevel SmartLists. The logic structure is preserved; field names and tag names update to match HighLevel's custom field API names after migration. During translation, filter groups are recreated as SmartList rules, ensuring that existing audience definitions continue to function without manual rework.

AWeber landing pages do not migrate — they must be rebuilt in HighLevel's drag-and-drop builder. We provide a page-by-page inventory of your AWeber forms and landing pages with field configurations so your team can replicate them in HighLevel. The inventory includes each page's URL, form fields, and submission destinations, allowing your developers to recreate layouts and capture logic quickly.

AWeber embeddable signup forms require rebuilding in HighLevel using HighLevel's form builder. Form field names and custom field associations documented during the audit phase so field mapping carries forward. The audit output lists each form's fields, their AWeber custom field IDs, and the corresponding HighLevel custom field names, enabling accurate reconstruction of form logic and submission workflows.

AWeber stores the original opt-in date per subscriber. HighLevel's standard create date reflects the migration import date. We preserve the original AWeber opt-in date as a custom datetime field (Original_Subscribe_Date__c) for reporting continuity. Update any SmartList filters, Workflow conditions, and reports that reference subscriber tenure to use this custom field instead of the standard CreatedDate.
