WooCommerce to Shopify Migration – Done Without Losing Your Traffic or Data

Yes, if the migration is handled correctly. The main risk is the URL structure change. We build a complete 1:1 redirect map before launch, so every old URL redirects to its Shopify equivalent. With proper preparation, rankings typically recover within 4–6 weeks.

Most WooCommerce migrations take 4–6 weeks; a store with under 1,000 products and standard data usually completes in about 4 weeks. Larger catalogs, complex plugin setups or custom theme rebuilds extend the timeline to 6–8 weeks. We define the scope in week 1, so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes. Order history and customer records are part of our standard process. We export your WooCommerce order data, transform it into Shopify’s format and import it with full verification.

No – Shopify doesn’t allow password imports from other platforms. Customer accounts, addresses and order history are migrated, and we set up account invitation emails so existing customers can reactivate their accounts with a new password.

Before migration, we audit every plugin you use and map it to a Shopify equivalent: a native Shopify feature, an App Store app or a custom Liquid build. Nothing is removed without a replacement in place.

Yes. Your WooCommerce theme – Elementor, Divi or custom PHP – can’t be imported to Shopify. We document your current design patterns and rebuild them with Shopify Liquid sections: the same customer-facing experience, running natively on Shopify.

On go-live day, we update your Search Console property, submit the new Shopify sitemap and request crawling for your most important pages. We monitor coverage drops and crawl errors for 30 days and configure Bing Webmaster Tools in parallel. Shopify’s own WooCommerce migration guide covers the basic platform-side steps.

Most features have a direct Shopify equivalent, built in or via the App Store. Subscriptions, bundles, product customizers, loyalty programs, reviews and wishlists all have strong app options. We identify gaps in the pre-migration audit, so there are no surprises.

Yes, for a small catalog. Shopify accepts a product CSV, and you can import products yourself through the Shopify admin. This manual approach skips customer data, order history and URL redirects, so most store owners with more than a few hundred products use a full migration service instead.

Some agencies build on third-party migration apps such as LitExtension or Cart2Cart. We run our own migration process, so we control field mapping, error handling and the free demo migration step directly – without depending on a third-party app’s limits.

Admin access to your WooCommerce dashboard, collaborator access to your new Shopify admin and access to your DNS provider for go-live. If you don’t have a Shopify account yet, we help set one up during onboarding.

The pre-migration audit, product and store data transfer, plugin mapping, theme rebuild or configuration, the 1:1 redirect map, Search Console and Bing reconfiguration and 30 days of post-launch monitoring. The exact scope depends on catalog size, plugin list and theme complexity.

The migration is a one-time project: we move your data, build the redirect map and hand the store over with 30 days of monitoring. Ongoing Shopify SEO support is continuous work after that – content, technical SEO, link building and monthly reporting. Many stores start with the migration and move into ongoing SEO once traffic has stabilized.

It depends on catalog size, plugin complexity and whether a theme rebuild is included. A free audit call assesses your setup and gives you a clear quote with no hidden costs.
