Book a call." lang: en --- • Shopify migration services # Shopify Migration Services Move your store onto Shopify without losing the orders, customers and search rankings you already have. Store owners come to us worried about the same three things: the orders, the customer accounts and the Google rankings they spent years building. So our Shopify migration services are planned around those. Every product address gets a new home before the theme is built, and the switch is rehearsed first.

The other half is making sure customers and Google can still find everything afterwards. (06) ### • Products, variants and stock codes moved across Your catalog mapped into Shopify's product structure, with every duplicate stock code and oversized option set listed before the first import. ### • A redirect for every address you have today One Shopify destination for every product, category, page and file, starting with the pages that bring traffic and carry links. ### • Customers, orders and lifetime value Accounts, addresses and past orders carried over, so your team can answer a customer question and your reporting knows your best buyers. ### • A decision on every app you use today Each app gets a Shopify equivalent, a rebuild inside the theme, or removal, with the content it holds identified first. ### • Checkout, tax and shipping proved with real orders Payment methods, tax rules and shipping rates set up, then tested with live orders including a refund, before a customer sees the store. ### • Templates checked against your old pages Product, category and content templates compared with the old store field by field, so titles and content depth do not thin out. See our process • • Problems we solve ## What goes wrong when a store moves to Shopify What costs store owners money when migrating to Shopify, and what we do about each one. Diagnose my site • 01 ### Every product and collection URL changes Shopify puts its own wording in front of product and collection addresses, so your current URL structure cannot be kept, whatever platform you are leaving. Every address Google indexed changes on the same day. We write the redirect list in week one. 02 ### Your design has to be rebuilt, not moved No platform hands its layouts to another, so the storefront is rebuilt in a Shopify theme. The risk is that a rebuild quietly drops what made pages sell: the buying guide, the size table, the badges near the buy button. 03 ### Customers who cannot log in on day one Accounts, addresses and order history all move across. Passwords never do, because they are stored scrambled in a form the new store cannot read. Every returning customer sets a new one, so we plan the email that warns them. 04 ### Content that lives inside a plugin or an app Size guides, care instructions and specification tables often sit inside an app rather than in the product record. The export brings the product across and leaves that content behind, so pages that ranked because they answered questions arrive thin. 05 ### Subscriptions that quietly stop billing Repeat orders run on saved payment details tied to your current provider, and those almost never transfer between platforms. Subscribers either stop being charged or get charged twice, and you hear about it by email, not from a report. 06 ### Reviews and star ratings on the wrong products Reviews, ratings and photos usually live in a separate app that ties them to your old product IDs. Move them without a matching list and they attach to the wrong items, taking your Google star ratings with them. ## Our Shopify Migration Process (06) Phase 01 Week 1 ### We find out what you actually have We export your catalog and crawl your live store, then compare the two. That comparison is where the surprises are: content inside apps, product pages nothing links to, addresses no export lists. Phase 02 Weeks 1 to 2 ### We map every old address to a new one Every product, category, page and file gets one Shopify destination, with its traffic and incoming links attached so you can see what is at stake. You approve the list before theme work starts. Phase 03 Weeks 2 to 4 ### We build the store on a test copy first Theme, catalog, categories and content go onto a development store. We crawl it and compare it with your live site for titles, product information, links and content depth. Phase 04 Week 4 ### We set up payments and tax, then lock them Payment methods, tax rules, shipping rates and any subscription re-approval get configured and frozen. We place real test orders, refund one, and confirm the order email and sales tracking both fire. Phase 05 Launch day ### We switch over during your quietest hour We pick the hour from your own order pattern, pause orders briefly, publish the redirects and point your domain at Shopify. The point at which we would put you back is agreed first. Phase 06 Weeks 5 to 8 ### We compare your orders with the old store For the first month we set orders, visits and Google coverage against the numbers from before the move. Any gap gets a named cause: an unmapped address, a bad redirect, or broken tracking. Get started • • The rankings you already earned ### Your product pages already rank. Shopify changes every one of their addresses. Shopify migration services do not find you new customers. They move a store that already has them, and every page bringing you traffic today lands at a new address. What you are protecting is not the store. It is the years of rankings and links pointing at the addresses you are about to retire. • Every old address matched to one Shopify address, ranked by traffic and links • A short category list, so one product is not reachable at five addresses • Content sitting inside apps rather than the product record, found before export • What the move puts at risk ### What a Shopify migration puts at risk, and where we stand on each. If the switch breaches the limits we agree beforehand, we put you back on your old store using the rollback we already ran in rehearsal. The call is yours. • Rankings and traffic. Every address changes, so the redirect list is checked on a test store • Sales during the switch. The order pause is timed from your own order pattern • Your history. Past orders, lifetime value and analytics goals carry over, or reporting restarts • Everything connected.

Month One What moves across ✓ Moving off Wix — Products, pages and blog posts come across with some reshaping. The design does not, and anything running through a Wix app needs a replacement. ✓ Moving off Square — Catalog, stock levels and customer records come across cleanly. In-person sales history stays in Square, and booking flows are replaced rather than moved. ✓ Moving off WooCommerce — Products, variants, customers and orders come across with a matching list of IDs. Plugin-held content, custom fields and subscription payment details do not. ✓ Moving off Magento — Catalog and customer data come across. Attribute sets flatten into Shopify's simpler option model, and filtered category addresses collapse into a shorter list. ✓ Moving off BigCommerce — Products, price lists and customers come across. Customer group pricing is rebuilt with Shopify's own tools, and larger option sets need restructuring. Months 2-3 Pre-build migration plan ✓ The redirect list — Every address you have today with its Shopify destination, ranked by traffic and by links, plus every page you chose to retire. ✓ The catalog report — Duplicate stock codes, option sets that overflow Shopify's limits and fields with no Shopify equivalent, listed before import. ✓ Shopify app replacement plan — Every app on your store with its Shopify equivalent, theme rebuild or removal, plus the content it is holding today. Ongoing How we prove it worked ✓ The test store next to your live one — Both crawled and compared side by side, with every difference grouped by the template that caused it. ✓ The timed rehearsal of launch day — The full switch run against a test store, rollback included, so the order pause has a measured length. ✓ Weekly order and traffic comparisons — Orders, visits and Google coverage against the numbers from before the move, weekly for the first month, with a cause for anything missing. • Compare options ## Compare Shopify Migration Services Compare Shopify migration services by how early they map URLs, rebuild app-held content, test checkout and rehearse launch.

If your catalog is small and nothing is fighting you, Wix is fine and moving costs money for no return. It becomes worth it once you can name something you cannot do: stock across several locations, subscriptions, wholesale pricing, or an app only Shopify has. And yes, you can switch from Wix to Shopify. Products, pages and posts come across, the design is rebuilt, every URL changes.

Plus is Shopify's enterprise tier, and what you are really buying is control of the checkout, proper wholesale pricing and the ability to run several storefronts from one place. If you sell to trade at negotiated rates, or your checkout has to do something the standard one will not, it earns its cost. If you are moving because your current platform is slow or expensive to maintain, the standard plans do that job. Take the current prices from Shopify rather than from us, and decide the tier before the build, because it changes what the theme and the migration have to account for." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can we run the old store and the new one at the same time?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "For building and testing, yes, and that is what the development store is for.
