Shopify SEO & Data Migration Audit

Migrating to Shopify without an SEO audit is how stores lose rankings they spent years building. Shero audits your content, technical setup, link profile, and redirect map before a single URL changes. We have protected organic traffic through 40+ platform migrations from Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and custom builds.

Organic traffic does not survive a careless migration

A platform migration touches every URL, every piece of metadata, and every redirect path your site has built up. One missed 301 redirect on a high-traffic page can wipe out months of ranking gains. One changed URL structure without proper canonicalization creates duplicate content at scale. The audit is not optional. It is what separates a migration that holds rankings from one that tanks them.

Why brands run their SEO audit with Shero

An SEO audit is only worth running if it produces a specific, actionable plan for migration day. Here is how Shero structures the audit to protect your rankings before, during, and after go-live.

01

Onboarding and access

We connect to Google Search Console, Analytics, and your current platform to pull baseline keyword rankings, traffic data, and crawl reports. This gives us a documented snapshot of your SEO standing before anything changes.

02

Content and structure audit

We audit every URL, metadata field, heading structure, internal link, sitemap entry, and Robots.txt configuration. We flag what needs to carry over to Shopify, what needs to change, and what can be cut without SEO risk.

03

Technical SEO review

We run a full technical crawl covering crawlability, indexation, duplicate content, JavaScript rendering, Core Web Vitals, canonical tags, and Shopify-specific URL handling for filters, pagination, and product variants.

04

Redirect mapping and link profile

We map every URL that needs a 301 redirect, prioritized by traffic and backlink equity. We also audit your inbound link profile and identify anchor text patterns that need to be preserved or corrected during the move.

05

Recommendations and implementation roadmap

You receive a prioritized action plan: what to fix before migration, what to fix at launch, and what to monitor in the 90 days after go-live. Every recommendation is tied to a specific risk or opportunity found in the audit.

How Shero runs the SEO and data migration audit

01

Onboarding: Scope and Access

We collect access to your current platform, Google Search Console, and analytics. We define the audit scope, pages in scope, competitor benchmarking, and the migration risks to audit based on your platform of origin.

02

Foundation: Four-Area SEO Audit

We audit across content (meta titles, descriptions, URL structure, internal linking, sitemaps, and 404 handling), visibility and organic traffic (keyword rankings, mobile readiness, and historic performance), link profile (inbound links, anchor text, and distribution), and technical SEO (crawlability, duplicate content, site speed, and indexation).

03

Optimization: Redirect Mapping and Risk Identification

We map your current URL set against Shopify's URL structure and produce a 301 redirect plan for every page type. We identify the migration decisions that carry the highest risk of ranking loss and prioritize the pages driving the most organic traffic.

04

Scale: Keyword Research and Competitor Benchmarking

We deliver keyword research covering target terms, search volume trends, and how your current rankings compare to competitors already on Shopify, giving you a baseline to measure against after migration.

05

Reporting: Audit Deliverable and Implementation Roadmap

We deliver a comprehensive audit document, a prioritized recommendation list, a redirect map, and a post-migration roadmap. For clients continuing with Shero, the audit deliverable becomes the project specification.

06

Ongoing: Post-Migration Monitoring

We track ranking changes, crawl errors, and indexation status in the weeks following launch. If issues emerge after go-live, we identify and resolve them before they have a lasting impact on organic performance.
