Why Store Owners Leave Shopify

Shopify Got You Started. WooCommerce Gets You Growing.

Shopify is a great starter platform. But as your business grows, the limitations start costing you real money. If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to move.

💸

Monthly Fees Are Adding Up

Shopify’s base plan, apps, transaction fees, premium themes — it adds up fast. WooCommerce has no monthly platform fee. You own everything. Your margins stay yours.

🔒

You’re Locked Into Their Ecosystem

Shopify controls your checkout, your data export options, and what you can customize. WooCommerce is open source — you own your code, your data, and your entire store. No vendor lock-in.

🚫

Customization Has Hit a Wall

Need a custom checkout flow? Complex product configurations? Advanced filtering? Shopify’s Liquid templating has hard limits. WordPress + WooCommerce can do virtually anything.

Side-by-Side

Shopify vs WooCommerce — The Real Comparison

Feature Shopify WooCommerce
Monthly Platform Fee $39 – $399/mo $0 (free)
Transaction Fees 0.5% – 2% (unless Shopify Payments) $0 (processor fees only)
Code Ownership Limited (Liquid templates) Full ownership (open source)
Data Ownership Shopify holds your data 100% yours
Checkout Customization Limited (Shopify Plus only) Fully customizable
SEO Flexibility Basic (URL structure locked) Full control (Yoast, RankMath, etc.)
Hosting Choice Shopify servers only Any host (Kinsta, WP Engine, etc.)
Plugin / App Costs $50 – $500+/mo in apps Most plugins are one-time or free

Most Shopify stores save $200 – $1,000+/month after migrating to WooCommerce.

The migration pays for itself — usually within the first few months.

How It Works

Your Shopify → WooCommerce Migration, Step by Step

Your Shopify store stays live and selling the entire time. We build the new store in parallel and only switch over when everything is tested and ready.

1

Migration Audit

We analyze your Shopify store — products, variants, customers, apps, integrations — and create a detailed migration plan with timeline.

2

WooCommerce Build

We build your new WordPress/WooCommerce store on a staging site — custom design, theme setup, payment gateways, shipping configuration.

3

Data Migration

Products, images, variants, customers, order history — everything moves to WooCommerce. Categories mapped. SEO metadata preserved.

4

SEO Redirect Map

Every Shopify URL gets a 301 redirect to its WooCommerce equivalent. Your Google rankings and backlinks are protected.

5

Testing & QA

Full checkout testing, payment processing, mobile experience, page speed — we test like a customer on every device before going live.

6

Go Live

DNS switch, SSL, final data sync, and your WooCommerce store is live. Shopify can be cancelled. We monitor post-launch to catch any issues.

Why Migrate With Us

We Don’t Just Migrate Stores. We Run Them.

Most migration services are done by developers who’ve never operated an eCommerce store. We run CondomDepot, SpicyGear, GetBigPills, and more — WooCommerce stores doing hundreds of orders daily. We know what works at scale because we live it.

“I’ve migrated stores from Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, and custom platforms. I know exactly what breaks during a migration — because I’ve dealt with it on my own stores. When I migrate yours, I’m applying the same care I’d give my own business.”

— John Fidi, Founder & COO, Go Live Design Co.

Questions

Shopify to WooCommerce Migration FAQ

No. Your Shopify store stays live and selling the entire time. We build your new WooCommerce store on a staging environment, migrate all data, test everything, and only switch DNS when the new store is 100% ready. You don’t lose a single day of sales.
Not if it’s done right — and we do it right. We create a complete 301 redirect map from every Shopify URL to its WooCommerce equivalent. We also migrate all meta titles, descriptions, and heading structures. Google sees a clean transition, not a broken site. Rankings are preserved.
Yes. Customer accounts, email addresses, shipping addresses, and full order history are all migrated. Customers can log into your new WooCommerce store and see their past orders. Note: Shopify doesn’t export customer passwords, so customers will need to reset their passwords on first login — we handle that communication.
Depends on your catalog size and complexity. A store with 100–500 products typically takes 2–4 weeks. Larger stores with thousands of products, complex variants, and custom integrations take 4–8 weeks. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the quote process.
Almost always, yes — and usually cheaper. Most Shopify apps have WordPress/WooCommerce plugin equivalents that are either free or one-time purchase instead of monthly subscriptions. During the migration audit, we’ll map every Shopify app to its WooCommerce equivalent and flag any gaps.
Every migration is custom quoted based on catalog size, number of products/variants, integrations, design complexity, and content needs. Contact us with your Shopify store URL and we’ll provide a detailed quote — no commitment, no pressure.
Yes — WooCommerce runs on your own hosting (that’s part of what gives you full control). We’ll recommend the best managed WordPress host for your store size and traffic level. Hosting typically runs $30–$100/month for most eCommerce stores — still cheaper than Shopify’s plans plus app fees.
