Moving from WooCommerce

Leave the plugins. Keep your rankings.

Slow WooCommerce shops are where PixelShop started. We move you across carefully, so customers and Google carry on finding you, and you get a faster, simpler shop.

Sound familiar?

Why shops move off WooCommerce.

WooCommerce with a stack of plugins

  • A plugin for delivery, another for invoices, another for reports
  • Updates that break something else
  • Heavy themes and page builders slowing every page
  • Yearly licences for extensions you barely use
  • An admin that's hard work on a phone

PixelShop

  • Delivery, invoices and reports built in
  • Updates done by us, tested on your shop
  • Hand-written pages that load quickly
  • No extension licences to keep paying
  • An admin built to work as a phone app

How a move works

Four steps, with your shop trading throughout.

Bring it across

We take your products, options, categories and pictures from your current shop and tidy them up as they come in.

Build it privately

Your new shop is built on a private copy. You click through, place test orders and tell us what to change.

Map the old addresses

Every old product and category address gets a redirect to its new home, so links and rankings carry on working.

Switch over

When you're happy, we switch it over, then keep an eye on the missing pages log and fix anything that turns up.

Moving questions

What people ask before they move.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

Not if the move is done properly, and that's what we plan for. Every old product and category address is redirected to its new home, page titles and descriptions come across, and after the switch we watch for any missing pages and redirect them too.

What comes across from my old shop?

Your products, options, categories, pictures and the descriptions that help you rank. We tidy up as we go, so things like fake products, hidden leftovers and old settings get left behind.

Will my shop be down while you move it?

No. Your old shop keeps trading while the new one is built on a private copy. When you're happy, we switch over.

I'm on Shopify, Wix or Squarespace. Can you still help?

Yes. The process is the same: bring your products across, build privately, redirect the old addresses and switch over.

Do you still look after WooCommerce shops?

We do, through PixelBay. If WooCommerce suits you better, we'll say so.

Plugins you won't need

Swap your plugins for built in.
