Most Squarespace to Shopify migrations run 6 to 10 weeks from kickoff to launch. Simpler Squarespace stores (under 500 SKUs, standard theme port) can ship in 4 to 6 weeks. Stores with heavy content, subscription products, or custom design work run closer to 10 to 12 weeks.

Typical Squarespace to Shopify migration pricing ranges from $8,000 to $25,000 for most DTC brands. Simple catalog and theme moves land at the lower end. Custom design work, subscription billing, or heavy content migration pushes projects into the $20,000 to $35,000 range. Book a free strategy call for a scoped estimate.

No, not if the migration is done right. Squarespace URL structures differ from Shopify's, so redirect planning is critical. Every Squarespace URL gets a 301 redirect to its Shopify equivalent, metadata ports over completely, and rankings are monitored for 60 days post-launch. Most merchants hold or grow organic traffic within 30 to 45 days of the switch.

For most Squarespace merchants, standard Shopify is the right starting point. Shopify's Basic, Shopify, and Advanced plans cover everything a growing DTC brand needs until annual revenue crosses roughly $1 million. Shopify Plus becomes relevant when B2B, multi-store, heavy checkout customization, or Launch Engineer support becomes a real requirement. Upgrading from standard Shopify to Plus later is straightforward and doesn't require another migration.

Products, variants, pricing, inventory, images, collections, customer accounts, order history, blog posts, and any existing URL redirects. Squarespace's export tooling is limited compared to Shopify-native exports, so we use a combination of CSV export, content-extraction tooling, and targeted API work to move everything across cleanly.

Yes. Most Squarespace extensions have direct Shopify app equivalents or close substitutes (Klaviyo for email, Yotpo for reviews, Recharge for subscriptions, Gorgias for helpdesk, LoyaltyLion for loyalty). Squarespace Commerce's built-in features that don't have direct Shopify parallels get rebuilt as custom Shopify functionality during migration.

Squarespace URL structures (especially for collections and product pages) don't map one-to-one to Shopify's, so every Squarespace URL requires an explicit 301 redirect. We export the full URL list from Squarespace, generate the redirect map during the build, upload it via Shopify's URL Redirects importer, and validate coverage before launch. Sitemap, robots.txt, and canonical tags regenerate on launch day.

Typically 1 to 3 weeks from signed SOW to kickoff. Smaller Squarespace projects can start within a week when timing is urgent.

We include a 2-week post-launch stabilization window in base scope for bug fixes, small tweaks, and performance monitoring. For ongoing support, Netalico offers retainers and hourly packages that keep the same team engaged on your store.

Yes. Squarespace blog posts, images, categories, tags, and author information migrate into Shopify's blog system. Blog URL structures get 301-redirected from Squarespace to Shopify paths. Static content pages (About, Contact, FAQ, policies) migrate into Shopify's Pages section with URLs preserved where possible.
