Ecommerce Website Redesign
Redesigning a live store is different from redesigning a brochure site — every change has to protect checkout conversion, product data, and existing product-page SEO. We redesign around that, without taking your store offline or losing a single order.
What We Redesign
Ecommerce Redesign Services
Whether it’s your whole store or just a weak checkout flow, we scope the redesign around what’s actually costing you sales.
WooCommerce Store Redesign
A full redesign of your WooCommerce storefront — new design, modernized product layouts, and a faster theme — while your existing products, orders, and customer data stay exactly where they are.
Checkout & Conversion Optimization
A confusing or slow checkout is the single most direct way a redesign can lose you sales. We rebuild checkout flow specifically to reduce friction and cart abandonment.
Product Page & Catalog Redesign
Redesigned product and category pages that keep every product’s existing SEO signals intact — title tags, structured data, and reviews carry over, not just the visual layout.
Shopify & Other Platform Migration to WooCommerce
Moving an existing Shopify, BigCommerce, or other store into WordPress and WooCommerce — products, orders, and customer accounts migrated without disrupting live sales.
Mobile Shopping Experience Redesign
With most ecommerce traffic arriving on mobile, we specifically test and optimize the mobile browsing and checkout flow, not just scale down the desktop design.
SEO-Safe Ecommerce Relaunch
Every product and category URL gets mapped and redirected before launch, so your redesigned store keeps the organic traffic and rankings your product pages have already earned.
Not Sure What’s Actually Hurting Your Conversion Rate?
Send us your store and we’ll tell you honestly whether it needs a full redesign, a checkout-only fix, or just a handful of targeted changes.
Why Choose Us
Why Stores Trust Us With Their Redesign
An ecommerce redesign done wrong costs real revenue immediately, not just traffic over time. Here’s how we make sure that doesn’t happen.
Built and Tested on Staging First
Your live store keeps taking orders normally while the redesign is built and fully tested on a separate staging environment.
Every Payment Gateway Tested Before Launch
Checkout and every connected payment method are tested end-to-end before cutover, not discovered broken after your first lost sale.
You Talk Directly to the Developer
No account managers or handoffs — you communicate directly with the person building your store.
Product SEO Protected by Default
Every product and category URL is mapped and redirected before launch — a standard step, not an optional add-on.
Launch Timed to Low-Traffic Hours
Cutover to the new store happens during your store’s lowest-traffic window to minimize any possible disruption to live customers.
Proven Across 800+ Projects
Our redesign process has been refined across hundreds of live sites and stores, so we already know where most ecommerce redesigns tend to go wrong.
Our Process
How an Ecommerce Redesign Works With Us
A more careful process than a standard site redesign, since a live store can’t afford downtime.
Store Audit & Conversion Review
We review your analytics, checkout funnel, and top-selling product pages to identify exactly where the current store is losing sales.
Product & URL Migration Plan
Every product, category, and URL gets mapped to its new equivalent, with structured data and SEO metadata flagged for preservation.
Design & Prototype
Key pages — homepage, category, product, and checkout — are designed and approved first, before full development begins.
Build on Staging
The new store is built entirely on a staging environment, completely separate from your live, order-taking site.
Payment & Redirect QA
Every payment gateway, shipping rule, and redirect is tested end-to-end on staging before we schedule the launch.
Low-Traffic Launch & Monitoring
Cutover happens during your lowest-traffic window, with Search Console re-verified immediately and order flow monitored closely for the first two weeks.

A live WooCommerce store’s storefront was redesigned around a new brand identity while checkout, product data, and existing SEO stayed untouched throughout the transition.
Checkout Redesign to Reduce Cart Abandonment
A confusing multi-step checkout was rebuilt into a streamlined flow, with every payment gateway re-tested before the change went live.
Shopify Store Migrated to WooCommerce
An existing Shopify store’s full product catalog, order history, and customer accounts were migrated into a redesigned WooCommerce store without any disruption to active sales.
Mobile Checkout Redesign for a Growing Store
With mobile traffic dominating the store’s visits, the checkout and product browsing flow were redesigned mobile-first rather than adapted from a desktop layout.

Ecommerce Website Redesign — Everything You Need to Know
Redesigning a live online store carries risks a brochure-site redesign doesn’t — a broken checkout or missing product page costs revenue the moment it goes live, not just search traffic over time. Here’s a full guide to what actually goes into an ecommerce redesign done safely.
Why Ecommerce Redesigns Carry More Risk
A content site redesign that goes slightly wrong costs you some traffic while you fix it. An ecommerce redesign that goes wrong can mean a broken checkout, a missing payment option, or a product page that no longer converts — each one costing real, immediate revenue rather than a slower-burning SEO problem.
That’s why an ecommerce redesign process needs more rigorous staging and testing than a standard site redesign, specifically around checkout and payment processing.
What Drives Ecommerce Redesign Cost
Product catalog size is the biggest factor — a store with a few dozen products costs less to redesign than one with thousands, since each product page’s data and SEO signals need to migrate correctly. Platform migrations (moving from Shopify or another system into WooCommerce) add a data-export and import step on top of the design work itself.
Protecting Product SEO During a Redesign
Product pages often carry significant existing search value — reviews, structured data, and rankings built up over months or years. A redesign needs to map every product and category URL to its new equivalent with a 301 redirect, and preserve structured data (pricing, availability, review counts) rather than starting that signal over from zero.
Redesigning Checkout Without Losing Conversions
Checkout is the highest-stakes page on any ecommerce site to redesign. Every payment gateway needs re-testing end-to-end on staging before launch, and the new flow should be evaluated specifically for cart abandonment risk — extra form fields, unclear shipping costs, or a confusing multi-step process are common places a redesign accidentally makes conversion worse rather than better.
Migrating From Shopify or Another Platform
Moving to WooCommerce from Shopify or another platform means exporting product, order, and customer data in a format WooCommerce can import cleanly, then verifying every record migrated correctly before cutover. This is more involved than a same-platform redesign but opens up WordPress’s broader plugin ecosystem and typically lower long-term software costs.
How to Choose the Right Ecommerce Redesign Partner
A few things worth confirming specifically for an ecommerce redesign:
- A staging-first process, so the live store is never directly edited
- Experience with WooCommerce specifically, not just WordPress generally
- A clear plan for testing every payment gateway before launch
- Product and category URL redirect mapping included as standard
- A launch plan timed to your store’s lowest-traffic window
At Mc Starters, every ecommerce redesign follows this staging-first, zero-downtime process, with over 800 completed projects and a 95% client return rate.
