NP SoftTech Shopify FAQ

Migration

How do redirects work when moving to Shopify?

We build a redirect map from old URLs to new Shopify paths for important product, collection and content pages so search traffic and bookmarks do not dead-end.

What helps us get specific

Share your store URL if you have one, the project type, markets you sell into, known apps or integrations, and any hard deadline. That context turns this FAQ into a useful next step instead of generic advice.

Common mistakes to avoid

Moving URLs without redirect plans

Broken links and lost search equity are common when cutover ignores URL mapping.

Promising a date before data inventory

Catalogue, customers, orders and integrations decide migration effort. Inventory first, then schedule.
