WooCommerce to Shopify, without the ranking drop
Move off WordPress and WooCommerce with every product, customer, order and URL accounted for, and your search traffic still standing the week after launch.
Leave plugin maintenance behind, keep everything that earns
Most WooCommerce stores reach a point where the plugin stack costs more time than it saves: updates that break checkout, hosting that slows down on sale days, and a patchwork of extensions nobody fully understands. Moving to Shopify fixes the platform problem, but a careless migration trades it for a traffic problem.
I plan the move around what earns you money today: product data and variants, customer accounts, order history, reviews, and above all your URLs. Every WooCommerce permalink gets a mapped 301, so the rankings you built carry over. The full playbook is on my Shopify migration page, and the build side is covered under hire a Shopify developer.
What moves, and how it lands
- Catalog & variants — simple, variable and grouped products rebuilt as clean Shopify products, options and metafields, with images and alt text intact.
- Customers & orders — customer records and full order history imported, so repeat buyers and your support team see everything they had before.
- Reviews & content — product reviews, blog posts and static pages moved into Shopify-native apps and templates, not pasted in by hand.
- URL & 301 map — every product, category, tag and blog URL mapped to its Shopify equivalent and redirected before DNS switches.
- Plugin replacement plan — each WooCommerce plugin matched to a Shopify app or native feature, with the ones you no longer need cut entirely.
- Tracking continuity — GA4, pixels and conversion events rebuilt and tested, so your reporting has no hole in the week of the move.
