Can Cart2Cart create 301 redirects after migration?

Can Cart2Cart Migrate 301 SEO URLs During Ecommerce Data Migration?

Yes, Cart2Cart supports the migration of 301 SEO URLs as an additional option during your ecommerce data migration. This ensures that your website's SEO ranking is preserved when you switch platforms. However, this feature is available for a limited number of shopping carts and may require the installation of additional plugins for some platforms. Please consult our FAQs or contact support for detailed information about your specific source and target carts.

Migrate 301 SEO URLs to:

• WooCommerce
• VirtueMart
• PrestaShop
• CS-Cart (from only)
• BigCommerce (no module installation required)
• Magento (to and from; no module installation required)

How Does 301 Redirect Migration Work with Cart2Cart?

Let's illustrate with a migration to WooCommerce. If you have the necessary redirection plugin installed, your 301 SEO URLs in your source store's admin panel might look like this:

After the transfer to WooCommerce, your redirects will look like this:

(Assuming you have installed the Redirection plugin in WooCommerce beforehand)

In most cases, 301 redirects are set up using relative URLs. Therefore, after you switch your domain name to match your source store, all redirects will remain functional.

For instance, if your source store has a redirection like this:

(Old URL) www.mystore.com/category/page1.html

redirected to

(New URL) www.mystore.com/category/page2.html

It will remain the same after the migration and domain switch.

However, if you change the domain name on the target store to something different from the source store, your redirection will still lead users to www.mystore.com/category/page2.htm.

Please note: This additional option migrates redirects that already exist on your source cart.
