Q: How long does it typically take to migrate a website to Shopify?
A: Generally, a full website migration, covering design, textual content, and graphics, is usually completed in about 5-7 business days. However, the exact timeframe may vary based on the website’s size and complexity.
For instance, a website with up to 10 products can often be transferred within a 5-day timeframe, while a larger site consisting of 20-30 pages or product items might require up to 10 days for the migration process to be finalized.

Q: Is Shopify better than Squarespace, and what distinguishes them?
A: To avoid sparking a potentially divisive debate between Shopify and Squarespace enthusiasts, it’s prudent to acknowledge that each platform caters to distinct user needs. If these needs aren’t met or if users lack the necessary skills, it might be wise to consider exploring an alternative website-building solution.
Both Shopify and Squarespace offer a range of advantages. Ultimately, the decision to switch or stay lies entirely in your hands. My primary aim is to simplify the transition process for you.

Q: Will my current website remain accessible during the migration process?
A: Absolutely, your current website will stay online without any disruptions. The migration process involves duplicating your existing site by creating a copy on a Shopify account.
Your previous website will remain accessible on the web until the domain name is linked to the new site.

Q: Can I independently make changes to my new Shopify website after your work is done?
A: Yes, you have full autonomy to customize your new Shopify website as you see fit. Shopify is an incredibly user-friendly eCommerce website builder that doesn’t require extensive learning.
Q: Does my domain name remain the same after the website transfer?
A: Indeed, your domain name remains unchanged on your new Shopify website. The process of connecting your domain name provides two options: either adjusting the name servers within your domain name registrar dashboard or transferring the domain name to Shopify.
Q: Will my new Shopify website faithfully replicate the old Squarespace site?
A: Typically, my goal is to painstakingly recreate the website with utmost fidelity to the original. However, there may be instances where certain elements cannot be replicated using standard Squarespace features.
Nevertheless, I conduct thorough discussions regarding all critical site components before commencing the project, ensuring the transfer of all essential elements.
