We offer a complete design, development and set up service as part of our Shopify migration offering.
We will carry out a full store review of your current website and set up, including customer journey (UX and UI) plus the overall aesthetic.
From here we will create initial look & feel working design previews of key pages, before building these into an ‘off the shelf’ premium Shopify theme. We will personalise the theme so the store looks as unique as possible, within the confines of the theme, including customisations to the code to adapt it to work with our designs.

SEO Migration Package
We offer an optional comprehensive 10-step pre and post migration protocol to protect organic visibility when moving website platforms, i.e. from WordPress to Shopify.
Pre Migration
1. Site crawl & URL mapping
- Spider entire site to extract all live URLs.
- Identify top linked/most visible pages to ensure these are prioritised in the redirect map to preserve domain authority.
2. SEO visibility
- Document highest-performing pages driving the majority of organic search traffic.
- Record top keyword rankings and overall SEO visibility.
3. Meta data & on-page audit
- Document all Title Tags, Meta Descriptions, and H1 headers, to ensure these can be replicated on the new website.
Post Migration
4. New website crawl
- Spider new website to ensure there are no broken links, 404 errors.
5. Redirect verification
- Scan URLs and manually check the top pages to ensure redirects are in place.
6. Meta data verification
- Check meta data is populated on the new website.
7. Google Search Console
- Submit new Shopify XML sitemap (/sitemap.xml) to Google Search Console.
- Monitor GSC pages report for new indexation errors, 404 spikes, or blocked resources.
8. Analytics and tracking verification
- Check that GA4 is operational on the new website.
30 Day SEO Analysis
Fluctuations in website traffic for the first 2 - 4 weeks after migration is completely normal as Google recalculates the new site structure. A drop in traffic/rankings after 30 days might indicate that something needs tweaking on the new site so we will analyse the following 30 days after migration:
9. Traffic and SEO analysis
- Compare 30 days to the previous month (on old site) - to identify any drops, spikes or trends in traffic.
- Compare 30 days to previous year (on old site) - to identify any drops, spikes or trends in traffic.
- Check conversion rate in Shopify to see if this held steady after migration.
- Rerun SEO visibility check and identify current top rankings.
10. Google Search Console exploration
- Check page indexing report for any anomalies - such as a rise in pages that can’t be indexed but that should be - particularly 404s to catch any failed redirects.
