A completed client migration.

This client moved from WordPress and WooCommerce to a custom build. The case record distinguishes verified delivery facts from outcomes still under review.

02 / Review your site

Slow checkout or a store that is hard to run?

Cart and checkout need a live session, so a cached homepage cannot settle the question. We review your own purchase path and the systems attached to it.

01 / Review

Checkout steps

Test cart, payment, confirmation and error handling with your actual configuration.

02 / Review

Extension footprint

Find what each extension does, what it costs and whether its role can be simplified.

03 / Review

Product data

Inventory products, variants, images, stock, tax and shipping rules. List customer accounts, order history and subscriptions separately so the quote names exactly which records and behaviours will move.

04 / Review

Old addresses

Inventory product and category URLs, then plan relevant redirects where paths change.

What the proposal resolves

Build, improve or migrate your WooCommerce store.

Your quote identifies the product pages, checkout changes, extensions and order workflows involved. A platform move adds a separate plan for data, payments and the features that must be kept.

01

Keep or change the backend

WooCommerce can continue to manage products and orders behind a different storefront. If a replacement backend is needed, the quote names the data and integrations to move and the new admin tasks.

02

Subscriptions and saved cards

Recurring billing, customer payment methods and booking or wholesale rules depend on the existing providers and account permissions. We verify what can be transferred, what must be recreated and whether a customer must act before committing to a cutover.

03

Reconcile the records

Define the product, variant, category, review, customer and order-history records included in scope. Test an import on a safe copy and compare agreed samples with the source.

04

Launch the purchase path

Check relevant redirects, mobile cart and checkout, payment outcomes, confirmation messages, tax and shipping cases. Record who watches the first live orders and how to respond to a failed step.

Website SEO / Search and AI access

WooCommerce SEO and AI search checks.

A fast homepage is only one part of a useful shop. Product content, category navigation and the way your theme or extensions output each page also need review.

Product and category content
Review readable descriptions, options and buying answers, plus page titles and internal links. Identify duplicated or missing content on the agreed pages.
Theme and extension output
Check canonical URLs, sitemap/indexing settings and relevant product structured data. If the storefront is rebuilt, agree which product addresses stay and which redirect.

Need ongoing buyer research, page improvements and visibility reporting? AI search services are optional monthly work, scoped separately from the build. Search systems choose which pages they index or cite.

03 / Make the right call

Repair or rebuild the store.

We recommend the scope that addresses the evidence from your site and team, then put the work and boundaries in writing.

Path 1 / Repair

Keep WooCommerce

A checkout configuration, theme or extension fix may solve the measured issue.

Path 2 / Rebuild

Change the storefront

Scope a replacement when the workflow and extension stack are the constraint.

04 / From call to handover

Build, test
and hand over.

Each stage creates something you can review. Your proposal names the deliverables and the point where you accept them.

01

Audit the store

Inventory products, extensions, checkout rules, integrations and URLs.

02

Agree the architecture

Decide what backend remains and how orders and content will move.

03

Reconcile real data

Test representative products, variants, accounts, payment and order flows.

04

Cut over carefully

Check redirects and transactions, assign monitoring and a rollback path.

05 / Published starting point

From $1,500

Starting point, not an instant quote.

WooCommerce development and migration cost.

A small catalogue can start at Starter. Larger product data, subscriptions and custom checkout logic may call for Growth or Scale. The accepted proposal controls the price and schedule.

After launch

What a WooCommerce store costs to run.

The build is a one-off. These are the bills that continue, so add them up before you compare quotes.

Hosting

Your host's invoice

Extension and theme licences

Renewal emails

Payment fees

Your payment provider's statement

Security, backups and updates

Card statement or your developer

Fixes and downtime

Your own records

That total is what a rebuild or a move has to beat, so it's the figure we quote against.

06 / Ownership & exports

What can you keep when you move a WooCommerce store?

WooCommerce runs on a WordPress website hosted with a provider you choose. Moving the full site and rebuilding it on a different system are separate jobs. A full move needs the files and database; a rebuild may use product downloads and separate customer and order records. Compare each part below.

Your project handover

You receive the project code and design files we create for you, plus documentation and control of the production accounts. If you then take a monthly support or care plan, that doesn't change: we keep sharing the code, documentation and accounts with you, so you always have your own copy. Third-party themes, plugins, services and assets remain under their own licence terms.

Can I move my WooCommerce store to another hosting company?

Yes. A self-hosted WooCommerce store can move with its WordPress files and database. A product spreadsheet alone is not a complete store backup. The move also needs checks for checkout, payment settings, plugins and the website address before the new version serves customers. Paid plugin licences and hosting arrangements still need review.

Can I take my products, customers and orders out of WooCommerce?

WooCommerce includes a built-in tool to download products as a spreadsheet file. Customer and order reports can also be downloaded, while detailed records use a separate export extension. If you are changing store systems, check which fields the new store accepts and test sample records before moving the whole catalog.

Also included at handover

  • Code and design files

    The project code and design files we create for you.

  • Written instructions

    Instructions handed over with the project files. If you take a care plan later, we keep sharing the documentation with you.

  • Training on your editor

    An editing walkthrough at handover, so your team can update the site. Every build that uses Sanity includes training on Sanity Studio and written documentation for it. On Starter, the content editor is set up, documented, and we train you on it.

  • Your accounts

    Control of the production accounts. Hosting moves to your own account on request or when an engagement ends.

  • No required care plan

    Your build keeps working without a PandaCodeGen care plan. Hosting and other provider services still need their own arrangements.

Licence notes, from the same check:

Vendor columns describe each platform's own documented tools, read on 8 October 2026. Plans and export tools change, so check the linked page before you rely on a row. Our column comes from our published terms; your written proposal states the details for your project, including any third-party licences.

07 / Before you decide

Questions people ask.

These are starting answers. Project-specific details belong in the written proposal.

Can you fix a slow WooCommerce checkout without replacing the store?
We assess that first. WooCommerce checkout depends on live customer sessions, payment connections, extensions and hosting, so a cached homepage score is not enough. We test the agreed product-to-order path and quote repairs on the existing store when they meet the need. A custom storefront or platform move is proposed separately, with checkout and extension compatibility checked before committing.
What SEO and AI search checks do you make on WooCommerce?
We inspect the agreed product/category content and how the theme and extensions publish it, then quote fixes. A rebuild also needs a product-address and content plan. Ongoing search research and reporting are a separate scope.
What needs special planning in a WooCommerce migration?
Products, variants, categories, images, customers and order history each need a transfer decision. Subscriptions, saved payment methods, customer logins and extension-specific data require separate checks with the systems involved. We record what moves, what stays and what customers or staff may need to do, then reconcile agreed samples before launch.
How much does a WooCommerce migration cost?
A focused store can start at the published $1,500 Starter scope. Catalogue size, data transfer, subscriptions, payment connections and custom checkout work determine the quote. Provider charges and ongoing support are listed separately; the proposal sets the final price.
Do products and orders have to move?
That depends on the architecture. WooCommerce may remain the backend, or records may move to an agreed replacement. We inventory the data first and list exactly what is transferred and reconciled in the scope.
Can you guarantee our Google rankings?
No. We map important URLs, carry over relevant metadata and check the new site's rendered pages and redirects. Search engines control crawling, indexing and rankings.
Can our team still manage the shop?
Yes, through the admin and editing workflows agreed for the build. We show your team those tasks before handover and document where a new feature would need development.
What happens to subscriptions and saved payment methods?
We first identify the subscription plugin, billing provider, payment account and what each permits us to export or reconnect. Existing billing dates or saved cards cannot be assumed to transfer automatically. The migration plan states what can continue, whether customers must take action and how renewals are tested before the old path is retired.
Will we still use WooCommerce after a storefront rebuild?
That is one option. WooCommerce can remain the backend for products and orders while a new frontend handles what shoppers see. A full move to another commerce system needs a separate data, checkout and staff-workflow plan; we compare both routes before quoting.
