Ecommerce Replatforming
Replatforming is the highest-stakes technical event most ecommerce brands ever run. The wrong approach wipes out SEO equity, corrupts customer data, and produces a launch that performs worse than what you left. We run replatforming projects with a documented strategy, proper staging, and built-in SEO preservation so your Shopify launch performs on day one.
For Shopify brands doing $10K to $100K+/month
The Problem
Most replatforming projects are treated as technical projects. Move the data, set up the theme, point the DNS. That framing costs brands significantly.
The risks are predictable. The mistakes are avoidable. Most just do not get avoided.
A replatforming done wrong can cost more in lost revenue and recovery time than the migration itself. Done right, it becomes the single largest performance improvement you make to the business.
The Solution
We approach replatforming as a revenue event, not a data transfer task. The objective is not just to get your store onto Shopify. It is to land on Shopify performing better than you left.
That requires a documented strategy covering SEO, data integrity, conversion rate, and launch sequencing before a single file moves.
What's Included
Revenue Impact
Organic Traffic
Every URL change without a 301 redirect is a ranking signal lost. We map every URL before the domain moves and monitor Search Console post-launch to catch any indexing issues before they compound.
Conversion Rate
Replatforming is the ideal time to improve the conversion funnel. We build or configure the Shopify theme around your actual traffic and buying patterns, not a generic template.
Page Speed
Moving from WooCommerce, Magento, or a custom platform to Shopify typically produces significant speed improvements. Faster pages rank better and convert at a higher rate.
Operational Cost
Legacy platforms and custom builds carry ongoing technical debt. Shopify eliminates server management, security patching, and plugin compatibility issues that quietly consume engineering time.
How We Work
We crawl your existing site, export data, document URL patterns, and establish SEO and conversion baselines. This defines the scope and risk profile before any work begins.
We produce a documented migration plan covering URL mapping, data transformation, app stack plan, theme approach, and go-live sequencing. You approve the plan before build begins.
We set up the Shopify store in staging: migrate all data, build or configure the theme, set up integrations, and implement the redirect map.
We run full pre-launch QA: data accuracy checks, redirect testing, checkout flow end to end, speed audit, and cross-device testing. Nothing goes live until it passes.
We handle DNS cutover and monitor traffic, rankings, and conversion rate in real time during and after launch. Post-launch monitoring runs for 30 days.
Tech Stack
Why Others Fall Short
Replatforming projects fail because they are scoped as technical tasks rather than business risk management. The result is a launch that looks done but performs significantly worse.
We run replatforming projects with a documented strategy, proper staging, and 30 days of post-launch monitoring included.
