MIGRATION FROM SHOPIFY

Migration from Shopify to WooCommerce: products, customers and URLs under your control.

Your Shopify store works, but you want your own installation, your own data and the freedom to add features? I move products, collections, customers and order history to WooCommerce, together with a 301 redirect map. First on a copy, and I recreate the features of Shopify apps with plugins or code.

I build this to order, around your rules. Describe your project and I will reply with questions and a preliminary quote, usually within one business day.

WHEN IT HELPS

When Shopify stops being enough

Typical reasons for changing platform.

  • The number of apps keeps growing

    Every feature is yet another app, and the set is hard to fit to your process.

  • You want your data and code

    Your own installation gives full access to the database, files and store logic.

  • You need custom logic

    Specific pricing, configurators and integrations are easier in your own code.

  • You fear losing your URLs

    Shopify addresses follow a fixed pattern, so well-planned 301 redirects protect the old links.

What a migration from Shopify covers

The scope depends on the data Shopify exposes in your account: through CSV export and the API. I start by checking what can be fetched.

  • 01

    Products, variants, metafields

    Products with variants and options, plus extra fields (metafields) as custom fields in WooCommerce.

  • 02

    Collections and images

    Collections as categories and product images, with their order and descriptions.

  • 03

    Customers and orders

    Customer accounts and order history as archive orders.

  • 04

    301 redirects

    Addresses in the /products/, /collections/ and /pages/ layout lead to the new addresses in WooCommerce.

  • 05

    Features from apps

    I recreate the features that Shopify apps provided with plugins or custom code.

  • 06

    Pages and blog

    Information pages and blog posts together with their images.

Demo

The demo requires JavaScript.

The numbers, addresses and notes are fictional or illustrative. This is a simulation of how it works, with no connection to any store. I set the exact address rules after analysing your store.

This is just an example. I will build it around your case.

You do not need a specification. A few sentences about what should work is enough.

What the rollout looks like

  1. 01

    Checking the data and apps

    I check what can be exported and list the features the installed apps provide today.

  2. 02

    A copy of the store in WooCommerce

    I build the new store in a separate environment, move the data as a trial and recreate the features you need.

  3. 03

    Redirects and SEO check

    I prepare 301 redirects from Shopify patterns to the new addresses and check them automatically.

  4. 04

    Switch and observation

    We agree the switch window, the domain change and syncing the last orders, then I watch Search Console.

FAQ

Questions about a migration from Shopify

Can everything be moved from Shopify?
Product, customer and order data usually can, within the scope your account exposes. The theme and apps do not carry over, so I recreate the look and the features in WooCommerce.
What about the apps I use today?
I list what they do and choose a plugin or custom code that does the same. If an app did something very specific, I will tell you right away, together with an approximate cost.
Will I keep my Google positions?
I cannot promise that. 301 redirects and moved content reduce the risk of drops, but changing a platform always changes something. That is why I measure the state before the migration and watch Search Console after it.
Will customers keep their passwords?
Usually not, because the passwords are protected differently than in WooCommerce. Customers set them again through a link. Whether it can be done differently, I check after the analysis.
Can I keep my domain?
Yes. I switch the domain to the new store in the agreed window, together with the redirects, once the copy has been checked.
