// SERVICE_OVERVIEW

Migrate Without Losing Ground

Platform migration is the most high-stakes operation in e-commerce. A poorly executed migration destroys organic search rankings, breaks customer relationships, and creates months of revenue disruption. At Elite Shop Experts, we have perfected a surgical migration methodology that moves your entire commerce ecosystem to Shopify with zero downtime and zero data loss.

We migrate from every major platform including Magento 1 and 2, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, PrestaShop, Volusion, and custom-built platforms. Our process begins with a comprehensive data mapping exercise that catalogs every product, variant, collection, customer record, order history entry, discount code, and URL structure in your current platform. This mapping becomes the blueprint for a pixel-perfect data transfer.

SEO preservation is the most critical component of our migration service. We build complete 301 redirect maps that cover every indexed URL — products, collections, pages, blog posts, and image assets. Our redirect strategies have maintained and even improved organic rankings for brands with 50,000+ indexed pages. We coordinate with your SEO team to resubmit sitemaps, update Search Console configurations, and monitor indexation throughout the transition period.

Beyond data transfer, we rebuild your storefront on Shopify using modern architecture standards. Every migration includes a custom theme build or premium theme configuration, app ecosystem setup, payment gateway integration, shipping rate configuration, and tax jurisdiction mapping. We handle the complexities of multi-currency setups, international market configurations, and wholesale channel migrations for brands operating across the United States and global markets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose my Google rankings during migration? +
Not with our methodology. We build comprehensive 301 redirect maps for every indexed URL, preserve structured data markup, maintain canonical tag integrity, and coordinate with Google Search Console throughout the migration. Our clients typically maintain or improve their organic rankings within 4–6 weeks of migration.
How long does a platform migration take? +
Migration timelines depend on store complexity. Small stores with under 1,000 products typically migrate in 4–6 weeks. Mid-size stores with 5,000–20,000 products require 8–12 weeks. Enterprise migrations with complex integrations, custom data transformations, and multi-store setups take 12–20 weeks.
Can you migrate customer accounts and order history? +
Yes. We migrate complete customer records including names, addresses, tags, and marketing preferences. Order history is imported as historical records. Note that Shopify does not support bulk password migration, so customers will need to reset their passwords — we implement automated password reset flows to minimize friction.
Do you handle Magento to Shopify migrations? +
Magento to Shopify is our most frequently executed migration path. We handle the complexities of Magento's EAV database architecture, configurable/grouped product structures, multi-store views, and custom attribute sets. Our migration scripts transform Magento's data model into Shopify's structure with full fidelity.
What does migration cost? +
Migration projects start at $3,500 for simple stores and range to $25,000+ for enterprise migrations with complex data transformations, custom integrations, and multi-store architectures. We provide detailed fixed-price proposals after the platform audit phase so you know the exact investment before committing.
