What it costs to move Shopify to WordPress

Quotes for a Shopify to WordPress migration vary wildly, because the same brief hides very different amounts of work. Here is what actually drives the number.

What agencies quote

For a small marketing site, hand-porting a Shopify design typically lands between a few hundred and several thousand, depending on template count and how much motion is involved. Most of that is rebuild labour, not strategy.

What drives the price up

Complexity compounds; each item below adds hours to a manual port.

  • Number of distinct templates
  • Custom animation and scroll effects
  • Non-standard grid or layout systems
  • Web font licensing and loading strategy
  • Redirect mapping across many URLs

The conversion route

Themify subscriptions are $29 a month for 5 conversions, $79 for 20 and $149 for unlimited. For merchants moving a brand site off the storefront, that usually replaces the largest line item in the quote.

  1. Open the page you want to convert in Chrome.
  2. Click the Themify extension icon in the toolbar.
  3. Press Generate theme and wait for the capture to finish.
  4. In wp-admin, go to Appearance → Themes → Add New → Upload Theme.
  5. Upload the .zip, activate it, and the page is live on WordPress.

Where to still spend money

Spend it on content, redirects, analytics setup and hosting — the parts that keep paying back after launch.
