Migration services

Migrating your Shopify store to WooCommerce

We understand how important a flexible, customizable e-commerce platform is to the success of your online business. That’s why we offer a complete migration service from Shopify to WooCommerce, enabling you to benefit from the many advantages offered by this open-source solution.

Advantages of WooCommerce over Shopify

Unlimited customization: WooCommerce, as a WordPress extension, offers unrivalled flexibility. You have total control over the design and functionality of your store, with the ability to add a multitude of plugins to meet your specific needs.

Reduced costs: Unlike Shopify, which operates on a monthly subscription model with transaction fees, WooCommerce is free. Although hosting and maintenance costs may apply, they are generally lower than Shopify’s recurring fees.

Advanced SEO Optimization: Thanks to native integration with WordPress, WooCommerce benefits from powerful SEO tools, offering enhanced optimization opportunities to improve your search engine visibility.

Migration stages

  1. Preliminary Analysis: Evaluate your current Shopify store to identify elements to be migrated, such as products, orders, customers, pages and blogs.
  2. Data backup: export Shopify’s essential data, including CSV files for products and customers.
  3. Installing WordPress and WooCommerce: Setting up a secure WordPress environment and installing the WooCommerce plugin.
  4. Data Import: Use specialized tools to import products, orders, customers, pages and blogs from Shopify to WooCommerce.
  5. Boutique customization: Adapting design and functionality to reflect your brand image and enhance the user experience.
  6. Setting up 301 redirects: Set up 301 redirects for the main URLs of your old store to preserve existing SEO and ensure a seamless transition for your customers.
  7. Testing and Validation: Thorough verification of the migrated store to ensure that all functionalities are operational and that data has been transferred correctly.
  8. Training and support: Training your team in the use of WooCommerce and providing ongoing support to ensure you get the most out of your system.

Average migration time

The complete migration of a store, including the transfer of products, orders, customers and the configuration of 301 redirects, generally takes between 1 and 2 weeks. This time may vary according to the complexity and size of your current store.

Rate

The cost of migration depends on various factors, such as the volume of data to be transferred, the desired level of customization and the specific functionalities to be implemented. Depending on the information available, store migration may be free of charge if carried out by the shop owner alone, but if experts or an agency are called in, costs may be incurred.
