- The need
- The WooCommerce store was difficult to improve. WordPress needed constant updates, enhancements were limited, and things often broke.
- The work
- Moved the business to Shopify, giving ongoing storefront improvements a more practical foundation. Subsequent work includes clearer product merchandising, brand-specific homepage sections, and customer reviews.

Visit Hawaii Good StuffA considered move, from first review to launch.
We start by understanding your current store and your business, then define the work, responsibilities, and launch plan before the build begins.
Understand your starting point.
Review your current platform, product catalog, customer and order data, search visibility, shipping needs, and the tools your team relies on.
Agree on the plan.
Define what will transfer, what needs rebuilding, required apps, responsibilities, project costs, and the launch sequence.
Build and prepare the move.
Set up the Shopify storefront, organize approved data and content, and plan redirects, tracking, payments, and shipping for the agreed scope.
Test, launch, and hand over.
Check product details, mobile shopping, checkout, and key integrations. Coordinate the launch and help your team get comfortable managing the store.
Before you make the move.
Can you move a store from WooCommerce, Wix, or Squarespace?
We review the source platform, available exports, custom features, and the Shopify store you need. That review determines the migration method and what is included in your project.
What happens to our products, customers, and order history?
We identify which records can transfer and how they need to be prepared. Customer passwords, subscriptions, reviews, and some historical records can require separate handling. The plan spells out what will move and any limitations.
Will a migration affect our search rankings?
We plan URL mapping and redirects and review important content and page metadata within the agreed scope. Search performance can change during a platform move; no migration can guarantee unchanged rankings.
Can Shopify support wholesale or subscriptions?
We can evaluate those workflows as part of planning. The right setup depends on your requirements, Shopify plan, and any apps or services needed. Their costs are identified before they are added to the project.
How much does a migration cost, and how long does it take?
Catalog size, data quality, design requirements, integrations, and custom functionality determine the work. We establish the scope, price, and schedule after reviewing your current store.
Can we keep our domain and business email?
In many cases, you can continue using both. We review domain routing and relevant DNS records as part of launch planning, including the records that support business email and connected services.
What happens after launch?
Handover and launch support are defined in the project scope. Ongoing marketing, reporting, and store optimization can be discussed separately based on what your business needs.
