What it is

A WooCommerce to Shopify migration is the technical process of moving an e-commerce catalogue, customer database, order history, and URL architecture from WordPress to Shopify. The core challenge is preserving SEO rankings through comprehensive 301 redirect mapping while rebuilding checkout and theme templates for improved speed and conversion rates.

What you get

  • Catalogue, variant, inventory and collection data migration
  • Customer accounts, passwords, and historical order transfer
  • Complete 1-to-1 301 redirect mapping to protect Google rankings
  • Custom Liquid theme development and checkout setup
  • Payment gateway, tax rate, and shipping rule configuration
  • Staged theme deployment with zero downtime at launch

Frequently asked questions

Will I lose my Google search rankings when migrating from WooCommerce to Shopify?

No, as long as 301 redirects are properly mapped. I build a complete 1-to-1 URL redirect map for every product, category, and content page so your existing SEO authority transfers seamlessly to Shopify.

Can you migrate order history and customer accounts from WooCommerce?

Yes. Products, customer records, order histories, and product variants are exported, cleaned, and mapped directly into Shopify's database structure.

How long does a WooCommerce to Shopify migration take?

A typical migration takes 2 to 4 weeks depending on catalogue size, custom functionality, and theme complexity. All development is completed on a private staging theme before switching live.

How much does a WooCommerce to Shopify migration cost?

Custom Shopify store builds and platform migrations start at $6,000. I provide a fixed proposal after reviewing your existing WooCommerce store and catalogue.

Will my live WooCommerce store stay online during the migration?

Yes. Your existing store remains fully operational and takes orders until the new Shopify store is approved and ready for DNS cutover, ensuring zero downtime.

Send me the store. I’ll tell you what I’d fix first.
