What Migration to Shopify involves
Migrating to Shopify from WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, Wix, or a custom-built store is not just a data transfer — it is a risk management exercise. Every URL that changes without a redirect loses its search ranking. Every order history gap breaks customer service workflows. Every missing product variant creates support issues.
We handle the full migration with a documented process: pre-migration crawl, data export and import, redirect mapping, staging verification, and a zero-downtime cutover. Your old store stays live until the new Shopify store is fully tested and confirmed ready.

Every URL redirected — no ranking losses
We crawl your existing site before migration and map every URL to its Shopify equivalent. 301 redirects ensure search authority transfers rather than disappearing.
Complete data transfer
Products, variants, images, customer records, and order history all migrate. We verify completeness against your source data before the cutover.
Zero downtime
Your existing store takes orders until the moment the Shopify store goes live. DNS is switched only after full verification on staging.

Questions about Migration to Shopify
Will I lose my Google rankings when migrating to Shopify?
Not if the migration is handled correctly. The key is implementing 301 redirects for every URL that changes. We crawl your existing store before migration to create a complete redirect map, verify it is in place before switching DNS, and monitor Search Console rankings in the weeks after the switch to catch any unexpected movements.
Can you migrate customer passwords from WooCommerce?
Passwords are hashed using a one-way algorithm and cannot be migrated directly between platforms. Customers will need to reset their passwords on Shopify the first time they log in after migration. We set up the password reset email flow and can send a proactive notification to customers before the switch so they are not surprised.
How long does a Shopify migration take?
A standard WooCommerce-to-Shopify migration with up to 2,000 products takes 2 to 3 weeks from start to launch. Larger stores with complex catalog structures, custom fields, subscriptions, or large order histories take 4 to 6 weeks. We scope the exact timeline after reviewing your current store data.
What data can be migrated to Shopify?
Products, product variants, images, collections, customer records (names, addresses, order history), and past orders can all be migrated. Custom fields, product metafields, blog posts, and pages can also transfer with the right preparation. We conduct a pre-migration data audit to identify anything that requires special handling.
