The case for moving

Why brands leave BigCommerce

BigCommerce gets brands a long way, but growing stores tend to hit the same walls: theme and customization limits, API call caps, and a smaller app ecosystem when they need something specific.

Shopify's depth — apps, developer tooling, and checkout extensibility — gives your roadmap far more room, and makes custom development straightforward rather than a workaround.

Common reasons

  • Theme & customization limits
  • API call limits
  • Smaller app ecosystem
  • Rising costs at higher GMV
  • Checkout constraints
  • Harder custom development

Scope

What we migrate

Everything that carries value — data, content, and the search equity you've already earned.

01

Catalog

  • Products & variants
  • Categories & collections
  • Images & media
  • Pricing & inventory
02

Customers & Orders

  • Customer accounts
  • Full order history
  • Addresses & tax data
  • Reviews & UGC
03

Content & SEO

  • Pages & blog
  • URL structure, 301 redirects
  • Titles & meta descriptions
  • Structured data

How it works

The migration, in four phases

Phase 1
Audit & map
Catalog, data, integrations, and every indexed URL inventoried and mapped to its destination.
Phase 2
Build & migrate
Store built to your brand, data migrated and validated, integrations rebuilt on Shopify.
Phase 3
QA & redirects
End-to-end testing, checkout verification, and 1:1 redirects staged and checked.
Phase 4
Launch & monitor
Coordinated cutover with no downtime, then close monitoring of rankings, traffic, and conversion through the transition.

FAQ

Common questions

Will I lose my Google rankings?

No. Every URL is mapped 1:1 with 301 redirects, and titles, meta descriptions, and structured data carry over — so search equity transfers with the store.

Why Shopify over BigCommerce?

Most brands move for the larger app ecosystem, fewer API and customization limits, and a much smoother path to custom development as they scale.
