What are Google’s Core Web Vitals, and do you test for them during migration?

Core Web Vitals are Google’s standards for site speed and responsiveness, including Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Interaction to Next Paint (INP), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). We focus on these metrics and use best practices during your migration for optimal performance.

Will product URLs and backlinks still work after the move?

Yes. We review every product, category, and landing page URL, matching them precisely to their new Shopify paths, and set 301 redirects for all changes. This keeps your SEO authority intact and ensures all old backlinks continue working.

Do you check accessibility as part of the migration?

Accessibility checks are included in our builds, and requirements can be scoped on migration projects according to your needs. Audits or remediation work can be added to address compliance goals.

How long does a typical Shopify migration take?

Project timelines depend on store catalog size and required integrations. We set schedules and scope up front so there are no surprises midway through your project.

Do you provide support after launch if there are traffic or index drops?

We monitor key metrics post-launch and can provide extended support retainers for larger or more complex stores.

How do I know your developers are qualified?

Every project is managed by senior Shopify engineers. DoodleWeb is a certified Shopify Partner, has client reviews on Clutch, and maintains BBB accreditation. We do not outsource migrations or use junior staff.

What you get

Post-Launch Monitoring and Support

After launch, we monitor Google Search Console and Shopify analytics for crawl errors, indexing, or traffic shifts. Any issue is addressed immediately—never left to linger.

Accessibility and Compliance Upgrades

Every migration comes with a WCAG 2.2 accessibility review and fixes, so your new Shopify store meets legal, procurement, and public-sector requirements from launch.

How it works

1
Full Technical Audit and Migration Plan
We inventory your current store—SEO footprint, integrations, and performance issues—then create a step-by-step migration plan focused on retaining traffic and speed.
2
Build and Staging with SEO Safeguards
All content and data are moved in a private staging environment. We test redirects, SEO elements, canonical tags, and schema before anything goes live.
3
Go-Live and Post-Launch QA
As soon as your site launches, we verify all ranking signals, Core Web Vitals, analytics, and logs across key pages—fixing problems before they affect your business.
