01 · The starting point

An old site, 17 years of ERP data, and search traffic to keep.

Products, prices and stock live in the ERP, the back-office system behind the shop. The new store had to run on that data and keep the search traffic the old site had built up.

02 · What I did

Every page, every product, every setting.

01

Every page

Home, collections, product pages, cart, checkout and the information pages.

02

Every catalogue item

Moved from the ERP into Shopify, filed under Shopify’s standard categories and named the way customers search.

03

Every back-office setting

Payments, tax, the checkout, the store policies and the emails the store sends.

04

The old links

Every old address points to the right new page, or was deliberately retired, so search traffic carries over.

05

Tested before launch

Checkout, payments and tax. A test order showed up correctly in analytics.

03 · In numbers

The work, counted

These count the work, not the results. It’s too early for those.

~2,700products, each filed under Shopify’s standard product categories
228 → ~165collections after the clean-up
401product names rewritten the way customers search
2,942SKUs in the first daily price sync from the ERP, with zero differences
8,388old URLs redirected or deliberately retired
~100×how far off the old store’s revenue reports were, because of one currency tag

04 · Connected

Eight services, connected from day one

Each one set up for what this store needs.

Klaviyo

Email. The signup and the flows are set up, and the sending domain is verified.

Google Merchant Center

The product feed, so the products can show in Google Shopping.

Google Ads

Connected to the store and to Merchant Center.

Google Analytics

Visits and orders tracked, checked with a test order.

Search Console

Verified, with the sitemap submitted, so Google can find every page of the new store.

ERP

The back-office system behind the shop. Prices update in the store every day.

Judge.me

Product reviews, shown on the product pages.

Payten

Card payments. No Shopify Payments in Montenegro, so the store uses this local gateway app.

05 · Where it landed

Live. Too early for numbers.

Results will be added once there are a few months of real orders to measure.
