Service · Store migration

Move your store off Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix or Tilda without losing SEO

This isn't a few-hundred-euro data transfer into someone else's rental platform. It's a move to a store you actually own: a modern headless stack — Medusa.js for ecommerce, Payload for content sites — with SEO preserved through a redirect map, hreflang and schema.org, and every product, customer and order imported in full. Cheap migrations routinely cost stores 20–50% of their organic traffic; this doesn't.

from €3,000

Price depends on catalog size, category complexity and number of languages — includes a full store build on the new stack

My Stack covers landing pages, brand sites, corporate websites and ecommerce — same architecture, scoped per project. WordPress is closest to ownership on a traditional CMS, but pays for it with plugin sprawl and ongoing maintenance.

What's included

Everything in the price

  • 100% SEO preservation (redirect map, canonical, hreflang)
  • Export of customers and orders from the old platform
  • Content migration (products, blog posts, pages)
  • DNS cut-over plan with zero downtime
  • Post-launch monitoring for 30 days — we catch 404s and SEO drops fast
  • Includes a base online-store setup on the new stack
How it works

3 steps to delivery

  1. 01. Audit
    I review your platform, catalog and traffic. You get a redirect map and a risk report before signing anything.
  2. 02. Build + import
    I build the store on a subdomain and import products, customers and orders. You can preview it at any time.
  3. 03. Cut-over
    DNS switch during low-traffic hours. Redirects active immediately. Intensive 404 and SEO-drop monitoring for the first month.
FAQ

Common questions

You get the same store on the same stack, plus the extra work of a redirect map, data import and SEO preservation — which is why migration and a new store are priced the same. What migration buys you that a fresh build doesn't: your existing rankings and organic traffic carry over instead of resetting to zero.
Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Tilda, Squarespace, Webflow, OpenCart, PrestaShop. Others need a prior audit of data-export feasibility.
For small stores, 3–4 weeks. For large catalogs and complex category structures, 6–8 weeks. Exact timing after the audit.
The import itself is fine. SEO is the harder part — every product page has to keep its URL or get the right redirect. That's charged based on catalog size.
A 100% redirect map from old URLs to new ones, preserved meta tags and headings, schema.org, hreflang. In most migrations traffic returns to its previous level within 2–4 weeks. Short-term dips can happen — that's normal.
