Shopify Migration Without Losing Rankings, Customers, or Orders

Migrations fail quietly: missing 301s, broken variants, empty customer accounts, or a checkout that is not ready on launch day. ShopStack plans Magento, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce moves with the redirect map and data model as first-class work, not an afterthought.

Service

6–14 weeks

URLs, customers, and orders kept

The problem this service solves

A platform move is where SEO rankings, customer accounts, and historic orders quietly disappear if the redirect map and data model are rushed.

A cutover plan with 301s, product/customer/order migration, and a launch window you can actually staff.

Who this is for

  • Magento or WooCommerce stores that are slow, brittle, or expensive to keep alive
  • Brands that cannot afford to lose organic rankings on product and collection URLs
  • Teams that need a rehearsed cutover, not a weekend hope-and-pray go-live

What we deliver

Scoped deliverables for shopify migration services, not a vague weekly retainer.

01

Platform and data mapping

Products, variants, customers, orders, and content fields mapped before a single import runs.

02

SEO redirect map

Old URLs to new Shopify paths with 301s so rankings and backlinks are preserved.

03

Catalog and customer migration

Imports validated on staging, including images, metafields, and account history where the source allows.

04

Cutover and launch window

A staffed go-live plan, DNS and payment checks, and a rollback posture you understand before the switch.

  • WooCommerce → Shopify
  • Magento → Shopify
  • BigCommerce → Shopify
  • Zero data loss
  • SEO preservation

How we work

We have moved catalogs like Heathen off Magento onto Shopify with checkout, images, and variants rebuilt for how the brand actually sells. Migration is engineering, not a CSV upload.

  1. Audit and risk register

    Catalog size, custom features, apps, and SEO exposure scored so the timeline is honest.

  2. Staging migration rehearsals

    We migrate to staging, fix data issues, and re-run until the store looks launch-ready.

  3. Cutover and post-launch QA

    Redirects live, payments tested, and a short hypercare window for the first real orders.

Magento retired · Shopify live · Luxury Resale

Heathen is a Warsaw boutique for authenticated designer resale—Acne, The Row, and similar high-AOV pieces. Magento was the stack, and it was leaking sales: category and product pages were too slow for a luxury catalog, images were heavy and unoptimised, variants were unreliable, and cart, checkout, and payment methods kept failing. A high-AOV buyer will not retry a broken Magento checkout. Magento-era load timings were not retained as a published baseline, so we do not invent a before/after seconds claim here.
