Can I perform SEO migration from BigCommerce to WooCommerce?

Yes, you can migrate SEO URLs from BigCommerce to WooCommerce during your data migration by selecting the “Migrate categories and products SEO URLs” additional option provided by Cart2Cart.

How Will My URLs Look After the Data Migration?

Here’s an example of how the “Migrate categories and products SEO URLs” option works in practice when performing your shopping cart migration.

Let’s say you're selling a product named “Tesla THREE 150w FULL KIT **BEST IN CLASS**” on your BigCommerce store. Its URL is:
http://bigcommerce-store.com/tesla-three-150w-full-kit-best-in-class/

After migrating to WooCommerce with the “Migrate SEO URLs” option selected, the product URL will look like this:
http://woocommerce-store.com/starter-kits/tesla-three-150w-full-kit-best-in-class

Preserving URL Structure During Data Migration from BigCommerce to WooCommerce

Due to the specifics of the WordPress CMS, it’s impossible to preserve the exact same URL structure. However, you can customize it to some extent.

In the example above, /starter-kits/ represents the product’s category name. You can modify the URL structure by logging into your WordPress admin panel and navigating to Settings -> Permalinks.

For example, entering `/shop` in the Custom Base field will result in URLs like:
http://woocommerce-store.com/shop/tesla-three-150w-full-kit-best-in-class/

Similarly, you can make the product URLs look like
http://woocommerce-store.com/product/tesla-three-150w-full-kit-best-in-class/ by entering “/product” in the Custom Base field. Remember to click Save Changes afterward.
