Shopify to WooCommerce Migration

Move from Shopify to WooCommerce without turning the launch into a rebuild twice.

A Shopify to WooCommerce migration is not just an export and import. It is data mapping, URL strategy, WordPress architecture, plugin replacement, tracking validation, checkout QA, and a launch plan that protects search traffic.

Want to understand the process first? Read our step-by-step Shopify to WooCommerce migration guide.

Shopify data needs translation

Products, variants, collections, customers, orders, discounts, pages, blogs, metafields, files, and app-owned data do not become WooCommerce data cleanly without mapping decisions.

URLs can be preserved, but not by accident

WooCommerce gives more permalink control than Shopify, which is useful for matching /products and /collections patterns. The risk is assuming WordPress rules, redirects, canonicals, and sitemaps will line up automatically.

Apps become plugins or custom work

Subscriptions, reviews, search, bundles, wholesale, email capture, fulfilment, tax, and checkout behaviour need a plugin plan or custom development before the store moves.

Hosting becomes part of the product

Shopify hides infrastructure. WooCommerce puts performance, backups, security, caching, plugin updates, staging, and checkout reliability back into the project scope.

The platform reality

Shopify is opinionated. WooCommerce gives you rope.

Shopify keeps products and collections under fixed platform paths like /products/ and /collections/. WooCommerce runs on WordPress, so product, category, page, and blog URLs can be configured more deeply through permalink rules.

That flexibility can help preserve important Shopify URLs, but it also creates more ways to get the launch wrong. Hosting, plugins, caching, redirects, canonical tags, XML sitemaps, and checkout testing need to be designed together.

Our job is to make the reverse move controlled: Shopify data lands in the right WooCommerce structures, high-value URLs are preserved or redirected cleanly, and the WordPress stack is ready before traffic is moved.

Included

What we handle

  • Shopify audit across products, collections, pages, blogs, apps, redirects, analytics, and checkout dependencies
  • WooCommerce and WordPress architecture planning, including hosting, theme, plugin stack, caching, and staging
  • Product, variant, image, customer, order-history, page, and blog migration plan
  • SEO URL inventory, permalink strategy, redirect mapping, canonical checks, and high-value page preservation
  • WooCommerce storefront setup or rebuild scoped around the current brand and conversion path
  • App-to-plugin replacement plan for Shopify features that matter operationally
  • Analytics, pixels, forms, email capture, search, and core integration checks
  • Pre-launch QA, redirect validation, crawl checks, and post-launch monitoring notes

Not a blind export

Why this starts with an audit

Shopify can export product data, and WooCommerce can import products by CSV. Those tools help, but they do not decide your permalink model, plugin stack, server setup, redirect strategy, app-data mapping, or checkout reliability.

We inspect what actually matters before quoting final scope: catalog size, variants, images, customer and order history, Shopify apps, collection rules, redirects, blog content, custom fields, search traffic, and the WooCommerce features your team expects after launch.

The starting point is $5,000. Stores with large catalogs, complex app behaviour, subscriptions, wholesale logic, multiple markets, custom checkout needs, or heavy URL preservation work need a deeper scope.
01

Audit

We crawl the Shopify store, review exported data paths, inspect apps and theme dependencies, and identify the products, URLs, collections, and content that carry SEO or revenue weight.

02

Map

We decide what becomes a WooCommerce product, category, attribute, variation, page, post, plugin setting, custom field, or redirect before the build starts.

03

Build

We set up WordPress and WooCommerce, migrate the approved data, rebuild the storefront, wire the plugin stack, and QA the full buying path.

04

Launch

We cut over with redirects, sitemap checks, analytics validation, checkout testing, and a post-launch crawl so broken paths are found quickly.

Start with the current Shopify store

We’ll tell you what can move cleanly, what needs rebuilding, and where SEO risk lives.

Send the Shopify URL and a rough sense of the catalog. If WooCommerce is the right move, we’ll scope the migration. If it is not, we’ll say that too.
