Everything your store runs on, moved to Shopify
A migration is more than a product CSV. We audit your current store first, then move every piece of data, content and SEO value your business depends on, and check it item by item before launch.
Products, variants and images
Titles, descriptions, SKUs, variants, prices, stock, images, tags and custom fields, mapped to Shopify products, collections and metafields.
Customers and accounts
Customer records, addresses, order counts and marketing consent. Customers get a secure invite to activate their new account.
Order history
Past orders with line items, totals, taxes and statuses, so your team and customers keep their full purchase history.
Categories and collections
Your category tree rebuilt as Shopify collections, with smart rules and filters so products stay easy to find.
Blogs and content pages
Blog posts, authors, About, policy and landing pages moved with their formatting, images and internal links intact.
URLs and 301 redirects
Every indexed URL mapped to its new Shopify address and redirected, so links, ads and rankings keep working.
SEO metadata
Meta titles, descriptions, image alt text and structured data carried over, then improved where they were weak.
Reviews and ratings
Product reviews moved into a Shopify reviews app so your social proof survives the switch.
Discounts, gift cards and subscriptions
Active coupon codes, gift card balances and subscription customers moved or rebuilt with the right Shopify apps.
Migrate to Shopify from any platform
We have a tested migration playbook for each platform, including the data quirks that break generic import tools.

Read the guideWhy brands migrate from WooCommerce and Magento to Shopify
Most brands we migrate are not leaving because their store is broken. They are leaving because keeping it running eats time and money that should go into growth. Shopify is fully hosted, PCI DSS Level 1 compliant and built for sale-day traffic. And because Shopify runs on one unified platform and API instead of a stack of plugins, your catalog is ready for new sales channels, including AI shopping assistants.
No more plugin and server firefighting
Hosting, security, updates and uptime are handled by Shopify, not your team or your developer.
Faster store, higher conversion
A modern Shopify theme, fast checkout and Shop Pay usually mean quicker pages and fewer abandoned carts.
Ready for AI and new channels
One unified API connects your products to Google, Meta, marketplaces and AI shopping agents without fragile add-ons.
Shopify vs WooCommerce vs Magento
| Shopify | WooCommerce | Magento (Adobe Commerce) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hosting and security | Fully managed, PCI DSS Level 1 | You manage hosting, SSL and patches | You manage hosting, or pay for cloud |
| Updates | Automatic, no downtime | Core, theme and plugin updates can conflict | Major upgrades are costly projects |
| Checkout | Shopify Checkout and Shop Pay | Depends on theme and plugins | Customisable but complex |
| Scaling for sales | Handles traffic spikes by default | Needs bigger servers and caching | Needs bigger servers and tuning |
| Ongoing cost of ownership | Predictable monthly plan and apps | Hosting, plugins and developer time add up | Highest: hosting, licences and specialists |
| AI and multichannel readiness | Unified APIs and native channel integrations | Plugin-dependent | Custom integration work |

How we migrate to Shopify without losing SEO
Shopify uses fixed URL patterns such as /products/ and /collections/, so almost every URL on your old store will change. Lost rankings after a migration are nearly always caused by missing redirects and missing content, not by Shopify itself. This is the checklist we run on every project.
Crawl and benchmark before we touch anything
We crawl every URL, export rankings and Search Console data, and list your top landing pages so we know exactly what must be protected.
Map every URL one to one
Each product, category, blog and page URL is matched to its closest Shopify equivalent. No bulk redirects to the homepage.
Set up 301 redirects and test them
Redirects are imported into Shopify and tested against the full crawl list before the domain switches over.
Keep content, metadata and schema
Titles, descriptions, headings, alt text and product structured data move across, so Google sees the same pages in a new home.
Fix internal links and sitemaps
Internal links point straight to new URLs, and the new XML sitemap is submitted to Google Search Console on launch day.
Monitor for 30 days after launch
We watch crawl errors, 404s, indexing and rankings daily, and fix issues before they cost you traffic.

Shopify migration cost and timeline
Fixed quote after a free audit
Every Shopify migration is quoted as a fixed price after we audit your store, so there are no surprises mid-project. The cost depends on the number of products and variants, how much customer and order history you want to keep, custom features and integrations that need rebuilding, and whether you want a new custom design or a refined theme. Shopify plan and app fees are billed separately by Shopify.

Up to a few hundred products, standard features, a refined Shopify theme.

How to choose a Shopify migration agency
They start with an audit, not a quote
A serious partner looks at your data, apps, URLs and traffic before naming a price or a launch date.
They show you the redirect plan
Ask to see how they map URLs. If the answer is a homepage redirect, your rankings are at risk.
They migrate order history and customers properly
Ask how they handle variants, custom fields, order history and customer account invites.
They improve the store, not just copy it
Migration is the best moment to fix speed, navigation and conversion. A good agency uses it.
They know Indian payments, shipping and GST
Razorpay, PayU, Cashfree, Shiprocket, COD rules and GST invoices should be routine for them.
They stay after launch
The first 30 days decide whether you keep your rankings. Make sure monitoring is part of the scope.

Shopify migration questions, answered
What is a Shopify migration service?
A Shopify migration service moves your online store from another platform, such as WooCommerce, Magento, Wix or BigCommerce, to Shopify. It covers transferring products, customers, orders and content, rebuilding the store design and features on Shopify, setting up 301 redirects to protect SEO, and testing everything before the store goes live.
Will I lose my Google rankings if I migrate to Shopify?
Not if the migration is done properly. Rankings drop after a migration when old URLs are not redirected or content is lost. We map every indexed URL to its new Shopify URL with 301 redirects, keep your metadata and content, submit the new sitemap and monitor Search Console for 30 days after launch.
How long does a Shopify migration take?
A standard migration usually takes 3–5 weeks. A migration with a custom Shopify design takes about 6–10 weeks, and complex migrations with large catalogs, ERP integrations or B2B features take 10–16 weeks. We confirm the timeline in writing after the free audit.
How much does it cost to migrate to Shopify?
Skyloom Studios quotes every migration as a fixed price after a free audit of your store. The cost depends on catalog size, how much customer and order history you move, custom features and integrations, and the level of design work. Shopify plan and app fees are billed separately.
Can you migrate customer passwords to Shopify?
No platform can move passwords directly, because they are stored encrypted. We migrate all customer accounts and data, then send customers a secure invitation to activate their Shopify account and set a new password, timed and worded so it feels like part of a planned upgrade.
Can you migrate my order history?
Yes. We migrate past orders with line items, prices, taxes, customer links and statuses, so your team keeps full reporting and customers can still see what they bought.
Will my store go offline during the migration?
No. We build and test the new Shopify store while your current store keeps selling. On launch day we run a final sync of new orders and customers, then switch the domain, so there is no downtime.
Can I keep my domain name?
Yes. Your existing domain moves to Shopify, so customers, links and ads keep using the same address.
What happens to my WordPress blog when I move from WooCommerce?
We move your blog posts, images and authors to Shopify's built-in blog and redirect every old post URL to its new address, so your content keeps its rankings and traffic.
Can't I just use Shopify's free Store Importer app?
Shopify's Store Importer works for simple stores with basic products and customers. It does not plan URL redirects, move most custom fields, rebuild plugin features or check data quality. For a store with real traffic and revenue, those gaps are where sales and rankings are lost.
Do you set up Indian payments, shipping and GST on Shopify?
Yes. We set up payment gateways such as Razorpay, PayU and Cashfree, cash on delivery rules, shipping partners such as Shiprocket and Delhivery, and GST-ready tax settings and invoices.
