And whether an online shop uses Shopify or WooCommerce also makes no difference from the point of view of that shop's customers ;) > your old links will stop working As long as your main website hostname is the same, you have 404s set up such that you land on a page that links you back to the main landing page... nobody really cares. > order histories will be lost For online shops, invoices anyway need to be exported to accounting software so that taxes can be filed correctly. I seriously doubt that a transition like this causes order history to truly be "lost". Look, obviously switching managed providers is rarely a seamless experience... but neither is it impossible or even necessarily fundamentally difficult. Indeed, it's not unheard of for managed providers to help people make transitions by offering import options... https://www.shopify.com/migrate https://www.shopify.com/migrate Shopify have guides to help with migrating, as does Ghost: https://ghost.org/docs/migration/ https://ghost.org/docs/migration/
