What you get
Shopify migration, done properly
A Shopify migration is not just an export and import. You need clean data, mapped URLs, tested redirects, matching storefront behavior, and a cutover plan that does not surprise your team.
Bytecode handles Shopify migration services from New York for brands across the US and Canada. You work with Tapabrata Goswami, founder and lead developer, who has delivered 148+ projects with 98% client satisfaction.
Migration audit
We review your current cart, catalog structure, apps, tracking, checkout flow, and SEO footprint. You get a clear migration scope before work starts.
Data migration
We move products, variants, collections, customers, orders, pages, blogs, and images where the source data allows it. We clean fields, remove duplicates, and flag data that needs a decision.
URL and redirect mapping
We map old product, collection, page, and blog URLs to the new Shopify structure. Redirects are built to reduce broken links and protect organic search equity.
Storefront rebuild
We rebuild your Shopify theme to match the business need, not just the old template. That can mean preserving the current design or improving key product, collection, and cart paths.
Apps and integrations
We connect the systems your store depends on, such as email, analytics, reviews, subscriptions, fulfillment, inventory, and ERP tools. We also remove legacy dependencies that no longer fit.
QA and cutover
We test products, variants, checkout, payments, forms, redirects, tracking, and mobile behavior before launch. Cutover is planned so your team knows what changes and when.

FAQ
Questions, answered
What platforms can you migrate to Shopify from?
We handle migrations from BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Magento, and custom cart platforms. We can also work with older Shopify builds that need a cleaner theme, data model, or app setup. The first step is reviewing your current store structure and export options.
Will we lose SEO traffic during the migration?
No honest developer can guarantee rankings or traffic. We reduce the risk with URL mapping, 301 redirects, metadata checks, clean sitemap setup, schema review, and post-launch crawl checks. Search engines can still take time to process a platform change.
What data can be migrated?
Common data includes products, variants, collections, customers, orders, pages, blogs, images, and redirects. Reviews, subscriptions, loyalty points, and other app data depend on whether the source system and target Shopify app support export and import. Customer passwords usually require an account activation or reset flow.
Can you keep our current design?
Yes, if that is the right call. We can rebuild the current experience in Shopify or use the migration to improve product pages, collection filters, navigation, cart behavior, and mobile usability. We will also call out anything that does not translate cleanly to Shopify.
How do you handle launch day?
We prepare the final data sync, redirects, sitemap, DNS steps, payment checks, tracking checks, and rollback notes before cutover. The launch is scheduled around your operations, not around a generic checklist. After launch, we monitor orders, redirects, forms, and crawl issues.
Can we start with an audit?
Yes. Bytecode offers a free Shopify speed and SEO audit at free audit. If you are planning a migration, include your current platform, store URL, and main concerns. Bytecode replies to inquiries within 24 hours.
