Ecommerce Migration in Loughborough
Moving a Loughborough store from one platform to another. Migrations lose traffic when URLs change without redirects, and the loss is usually discovered weeks later once rankings have already fallen — which is why the redirect map is the part of the project that most deserves attention.
Why this comes up
The problem
The current platform is limiting or expensive, and previous migration attempts elsewhere have been described as losing months of search visibility.
What you get
What we deliver
- A complete URL map from the old store, including pages nobody remembers
- Redirects for every changed URL, tested before launch rather than after
- Products, variants, customers and order history migrated and reconciled
- Reviews and user content preserved, since these are hard to recreate
- Search Console monitored closely after launch, when problems are still fixable
- A rollback position, because cutover is otherwise irreversible

Ecommerce Migration in Loughborough — common questions
- Why do migrations lose traffic?
- Missing redirects, almost always. New platforms structure URLs differently, and every old URL without a redirect loses whatever ranking and links it had. Crawling the old site to capture every URL — including ones nobody knew existed — is the essential first step.
- What is most often forgotten?
- Product reviews, customer accounts and order history. Reviews carry real conversion value and cannot be recreated; customers who cannot see past orders or log in with existing credentials generate support volume and lose trust at exactly the wrong moment.
- How long before we know it worked?
- Days for technical problems, weeks for search impact. Watching Search Console for crawl errors and coverage changes in the first fortnight catches most issues while they are still cheap to fix, rather than discovering them when revenue drops.
- Should we redesign at the same time?
- Preferably not. Combining a platform migration with a redesign means any drop in performance has two possible causes and no way to separate them. Migrating first with the design largely intact makes problems diagnosable.
- Do you work with businesses across Leicestershire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Loughborough and the surrounding Leicestershire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Loughborough businesses do you usually work with?
- University spin-outs and sports technology firms make up much of the work, usually turning a working prototype into something robust enough for customers. Beyond that we work across Sports Technology, Higher Education, Engineering and Research & Development.
- Do you cover the areas around Loughborough?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Leicester, Nottingham, Derby. Loughborough is an urban area of roughly 60,000+, and we take on work across the wider Leicestershire region rather than the city boundary alone.
