Case Study 1: MyCustomPatches
The situation. MyCustomPatches is a 10-year-old custom embroidered patch e-commerce business running on WordPress. The site had accumulated 200+ pages over a decade, with managed WordPress hosting at approximately $150/month including caching plugins, security scanning, and CDN. Mobile PageSpeed scored approximately 45 out of 100. Load time on 4G mobile was 3.2 seconds.
The migration. Six-week timeline. PandaCodeGen extracted all content from the WordPress database, mapped every URL to a 301 redirect in Next.js Middleware, rebuilt the design in custom Next.js code with mobile-first improvements, and deployed to Vercel.
The result. Load time dropped from 3.2 seconds to 0.7 seconds (78 percent faster). PageSpeed score improved from approximately 45 to 100 out of 100. Monthly hosting cost dropped from $150 to $0 on Vercel free tier. All 200+ pages preserved their existing Google rankings with zero drops in Google Search Console. Zero downtime during the DNS cutover.
Case Study 2: Panda Patches
The situation. Panda Patches (live at pandapatches.com) is a 3-year-old custom patch e-commerce business doing meaningful revenue on a WordPress + WooCommerce stack. The store had grown to require multiple paid SaaS services on top of WordPress hosting, with total monthly tooling cost in the hundreds of dollars. Mobile PageSpeed scored 64 out of 100. LCP was 5.8 seconds.
The stack rebuild. Full headless migration. Frontend rebuilt on Next.js 16 with React Server Components. Content moved to Sanity CMS. Customer accounts and order data moved to Supabase. Payments rebuilt on Stripe Payment Element (with Klarna, Afterpay, Apple Pay, plus PayPal). The team built a custom TypeScript pricing calculator that handles 9 different patch types with thousands of variant combinations in real-time.
The result. PageSpeed jumped from 64 to 99 out of 100. LCP dropped from 5.8 seconds to 0.8 seconds (86 percent faster). All three Core Web Vitals turned green in Google Search Console. SEO rankings preserved at 100 percent with zero drops post-migration. Seven previous paid services consolidated into one custom build. Total monthly tooling cost dropped to $25. Panda Patches now generates $38,000/month in revenue on that $25/month tooling cost.
Methodology and Verifiability
All PageSpeed scores cited above are from Google PageSpeed Insights (pagespeed.web.dev) mobile tests using throttled 4G connection settings. LCP, INP, and CLS values are from Core Web Vitals reports in Google Search Console. Revenue figures are from Stripe Dashboard exports shared by the client with permission.
SEO ranking preservation is verified through Google Search Console performance reports comparing the 30 days before migration to the 30 days after. Zero ranking drops means zero pages dropped more than one position in average ranking for any tracked keyword.
Hosting cost figures are from actual Vercel and WP Engine invoices. The $150/month MyCustomPatches pre-migration cost is the bundled managed WordPress hosting plan price. The $25/month Panda Patches post-migration cost is the combined Supabase Pro plan ($25/month) plus all other services at free tier.
Case Study FAQ
What is the MyCustomPatches case study?
MyCustomPatches is a 10-year-old custom embroidered patch e-commerce business that migrated from WordPress to custom Next.js with PandaCodeGen in 6 weeks. Results: load time dropped from 3.2 seconds to 0.7 seconds, PageSpeed score improved from approximately 45 to 100 out of 100, monthly hosting cost dropped from $150 to $0 on Vercel free tier, all 200+ pages and SEO rankings fully preserved with zero downtime during launch.
What is the Panda Patches case study?
Panda Patches (pandapatches.com) is a 3-year-old custom patch e-commerce business migrated from WordPress to a complete headless stack: Next.js 16 frontend, Sanity CMS for content, Supabase for backend database, Stripe for payments (with Klarna, Afterpay, Apple Pay via Stripe Payment Element, plus PayPal). Includes a real-time TypeScript pricing calculator covering 9 different patch types with thousands of combinations. Results: PageSpeed went from 64/100 (5.8s LCP) to 99/100 (0.8s LCP), 100 percent SEO ranking preservation in Google Search Console (zero drops), and $38,000/month revenue on $25/month total tooling cost.
How did Panda Patches replace 7 paid services with $25/month tooling?
Pre-migration Panda Patches ran on WordPress with multiple paid services: WP Engine hosting, WooCommerce subscription tools, separate review platform, separate email tool, separate analytics, separate CDN, and separate form handler. Post-migration the stack consolidated to Vercel ($0 to $20/month), Sanity CMS (free tier), Supabase ($0 to $25/month), Stripe (transaction fees only), and built-in analytics via Vercel. Total monthly tooling: $25. The custom pricing calculator and review system were built into the Next.js codebase, eliminating the SaaS subscriptions.
How were SEO rankings preserved during the Panda Patches migration?
Every existing URL on the 3-year-old WordPress site was mapped to a 301 redirect in Next.js Middleware. PageRank, backlink authority, indexed page status, and ranking history transferred to the new URLs without loss. Schema.org markup was migrated and upgraded. The sitemap was regenerated and submitted to Google Search Console on launch day. Post-launch Google Search Console showed zero ranking drops. Organic traffic continued without interruption.
Are there before-and-after screenshots of the migrations?
Yes. Full before-and-after PageSpeed Insights screenshots, Core Web Vitals reports, and Google Search Console performance graphs are available in the detailed case study pages. MyCustomPatches case study: pandacodegen.com/work/mycustompatches. Panda Patches case study: pandacodegen.com/work/panda-patches.
What did MyCustomPatches save in monthly costs?
Pre-migration MyCustomPatches paid approximately $150/month for managed WordPress hosting including caching plugins, security scanning, and CDN. Post-migration the site runs on Vercel free tier at $0/month. Annual savings: approximately $1,800. The migration paid for itself within the first year on hosting savings alone before counting conversion improvements from the faster load times.
What tools were used in the Panda Patches headless stack?
Next.js 16 with React Server Components for the frontend. Sanity CMS for product content, blog content, and structured data. Supabase for customer accounts, order data, and authentication. Stripe Payment Element for checkout (Klarna, Afterpay, Apple Pay, plus PayPal). Vercel for hosting on the global edge network. Cloudflare for DNS. A custom TypeScript pricing calculator handles 9 different patch types with thousands of variant combinations in real-time.
Can these results be replicated for other e-commerce migrations?
Yes. The Panda Patches stack pattern (Next.js + Sanity + Supabase + Stripe) is the standard PandaCodeGen Scale tier ($5,000 to $10,000) for e-commerce builds. The MyCustomPatches WordPress migration pattern is the standard Growth tier ($3,500) when no headless commerce is needed. Real-time pricing calculators add 1 to 3 weeks to the timeline depending on complexity. Specific results vary by site size, traffic, and starting performance, but PageSpeed 90+ and SEO preservation are guaranteed in writing for every project.
