Redirect map before data migration
Every indexed URL — product, collection, blog, filter — mapped one to one, tested on staging against a live crawl, and verified again the day after launch.

The problem
Migrations lose traffic in one predictable way: the new platform enforces a different URL structure, nobody maps the old URLs, and every ranking product page 404s on launch day. Recovering from that takes six to twelve months if it recovers at all.
How we do it
What the work actually involves
Data migrated with integrity checks
Products, variants, customers, orders, reviews and subscriptions, with counts and spot-checks reconciled at each stage rather than trusted.
Launch timed against your calendar
Never in a peak trading period, and never on a Friday. A migration needs the team available for 48 hours afterwards.
Monitored for a month afterwards
Crawl errors, indexation, rankings and revenue tracked daily for 30 days. Migration problems surface in week two, not on launch day.

- Shopify vs WooCommerce
Shopify is rented and reliable. WooCommerce is owned and yours to keep running. Both sell fine.

Still have questions?
Book 30 minutes with a strategist. No deck, no pitch — just answers about your situation.
Book a callA short dip of two to four weeks is normal while search engines process the redirects. A lasting loss is not normal and means the redirect map was incomplete. That is why it is built first and verified twice.
