SEO Migrations for eCommerce
Protect rankings and revenue during platform changes.
Replatforming, theme rebuilds, URL changes, and international rollouts can destroy organic traffic if redirects, canonicals, and indexation rules aren’t governed. We plan, implement, and QA migrations so you launch with confidence.

Launch without losing rankings: migration planning, redirects, and QA
Most migration failures happen before launch: incomplete URL mapping, missing redirect logic, canonical mistakes, and no way to validate indexation at scale. We plan and govern migrations so organic traffic and revenue pages stay protected through replatforms, redesigns, and international rollouts.

What migration SEO protects
Migrations are high-risk because they touch everything: URLs, templates, content, internal linking, and indexation. We focus on protecting the pages that drive revenue and ensuring search engines can re-discover the new site cleanly.
Redirect integrity
Clean URL mapping, correct status codes, and no "redirect chains" that slow crawlers or leak authority.
Canonical + indexation governance
We validate canonicals, noindex rules, sitemaps, and robots directives so the right pages get indexed post-launch.
Template + internal linking alignment
We prevent "orphaned" collections and ensure navigation/filters don’t explode crawl paths. This pairs with Faceted Navigation SEO.
Post-launch monitoring + fixes
We track indexation and ranking shifts, then fix issues fast. If you’re expanding markets at the same time, add International SEO.
How we deliver SEO migrations
Built for long-term partnerships: clear documentation, implementation scope, and a QA checklist your team can run.
Pre-migration audit
We identify high-value pages, existing crawl/indexation risks, and what must be preserved (templates, URLs, internal linking).
URL mapping + redirect plan
A structured mapping from old to new URLs (including edge cases), plus rules for parameter handling and trailing slashes.
Implementation + QA
We validate redirects, canonicals, sitemaps, robots, and template signals. If schema changes, pair with Schema for eCommerce.
Launch support + monitoring
We monitor for indexing errors, coverage drops, and ranking volatility, then prioritize fixes around revenue pages.
After launch, connect the site to ongoing growth with eCommerce SEO and CRO.
