Move your content and eCommerce data to WordPress with LitExtension’s WordPress Migration Service. Transfer pages, blog posts, images, and supported SEO fields to WordPress, plus products, customers, orders, and related store data to WooCommerce.
Use our Automated Migration Tool to connect a supported source through an API or bring exported files and share links. You can also start with the LitExtension WordPress plugin.
Prefer to leave the work to us? Choose Expert Migration Service for data assessment, preparation, mapping, migration, and validation, including custom fields and third-party app data reviewed for your project.
Start Your WordPress Data Migration
Select your source platform to explore migration to WordPress. Already have an export? Use Files Migration to bring your data from files or share links. For products, customers, and orders, prepare WooCommerce on your WordPress destination. Have custom fields or third-party app records? Ask our experts to review your data.
How Our WordPress Site Migration Service Moves Your Data
Connect your source, check the mapping, and review sample results before the Full Migration. Run the transfer yourself or let our experts manage the data migration from start to finish.
1. Connect Your Source and Destination
Connect a supported source through an API, provide exported files, or add share links. Set WordPress as your destination for content, or WooCommerce for store data. With Expert Service, our team assesses your source and prepares the connection for you.
2. Review Mapping and Run a Demo
Choose your data and available options, review the auto-mapped fields, and run Data Check for file-based migrations. Inspect sample records in a Free Demo. With Expert Service, our team handles preparation, mapping, and the agreed custom data.
3. Migrate and Check Your Data
Run the Full Migration and check the transferred content, product details, customer records, order totals, and data relationships. For an active source, plan an eligible recent-data transfer or update so new records are accounted for.
WordPress Data Migration for Content and Online Stores
When you move to WordPress, the records behind your website matter as much as the pages visitors see. Your articles, product catalog, customer accounts, and order history need to reach the right fields on the destination. LitExtension’s WordPress migration service helps you transfer that data through an automated workflow or a migration managed by our experts.
WordPress receives content such as pages and blog posts. WooCommerce adds the store structure needed for products, customers, orders, and related eCommerce records. Start with the data you need to retain, then choose the migration route that suits your source and the amount of help you want.
- Choose automated or expert migration
- Migrate exported files and share links
- Start with the LitExtension plugin
- Move custom and third-party app data
- Check migrated records and relationships
- Understand cost and timing
- Separate website infrastructure services
Choose Your WordPress Data Migration Method
Choose Automated Migration if you want to set up a supported transfer yourself. You connect the source and destination, select data types, review the mapping, and check a Demo before the Full Migration. Supported API connections and exported files give you different ways to supply your source data.
Choose Expert Service when you want LitExtension to manage the technical data migration work. It is also the right starting point for complex exports, custom fields, and records stored in third-party applications. Our team reviews your requirements and confirms what can be transferred before preparing and running the migration.
| Your situation | Recommended starting point |
|---|---|
| Your source offers a supported direct connection | Automated Migration using the available API or platform connection instructions. |
| You have structured exports or spreadsheets | Automated Files Migration with field mapping, data checks, and a Demo. |
| You want to start from your WordPress admin | The LitExtension plugin for supported content and store data migration. |
| You have little time for DIY setup | Expert Service to manage preparation, mapping, transfer, and validation. |
| You have custom fields or third-party app records | Expert assessment of source access, data relationships, and destination storage. |
Migrate to WordPress From Exported Files
Exports provide a practical route when you cannot connect directly to your old platform or already keep your data in spreadsheets. Select Files as your Source Cart and WordPress or WooCommerce as your Target Cart. Supply the files or share links, then check how your columns map to the destination.
The Files workflow accepts CSV, TSV, XLSX, and XLSM uploads, Google Sheets, and public file links from Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive. Review automatic mapping, run Data Check, and inspect a Demo before the Full Migration. See the complete Files Migration guide for preparation details and current limits.
A structured file still needs to contain the information you want to retain. Check that product identifiers, customer references, order items, and image links are available before importing. If the export is incomplete or needs substantial restructuring, our experts can review the files and propose a managed approach.
Start Through the LitExtension WordPress Plugin
You can also install the LitExtension Automated Store Migration & Import plugin and start a supported data migration from WordPress. Enter the source details, choose the records you need, and inspect the Demo on your destination.
The plugin is another way to access the LitExtension data migration workflow. You still choose the source data, destination, and migration options appropriate to your project. For eCommerce records, prepare a WooCommerce destination before starting.
Expert Migration for Custom Fields and Third-Party App Data
Important business information may live outside your platform’s standard export. Examples include product attributes added by an app, customer-specific fields, subscription records, loyalty data, or membership information. These records need a migration plan that accounts for how they are stored and used.
Our experts assess the available source access or exports, identify the fields and relationships, and confirm a suitable destination structure. We then prepare the agreed data, configure mapping, run a Demo, perform the Full Migration, and validate the results. Any limitations or additional requirements are discussed before the custom work begins.
You do not need to solve the technical mapping yourself. Tell us which data is important, show us representative records, and explain any business rules. We use that information to define a clear data migration scope and help you review the outcome.
Check the Data That Your Business Uses
A successful transfer needs more than matching record counts. Check representative records and their relationships on the destination:
- Content: titles, page and post text, images, categories, and supported URL or SEO fields.
- Products: SKUs, descriptions, prices, stock, variations, categories, and images.
- Customers: names, emails, addresses, and supported account fields.
- Orders: customer links, line items, quantities, discounts, shipping, taxes, totals, and statuses.
- Custom data: agreed fields and references stored in the intended destination locations.
Use the Demo to identify mapping changes before the full transfer. For an expert-managed project, our team checks the agreed migrated data and investigates discrepancies within scope. We also guide you through reviewing records that are important to your operations.
Coverage varies by migration route. For example, product reviews need an expert assessment when the source is Files because they are not currently available in that self-service route. Customer passwords, order ID preservation, multilingual fields, and extension-specific records also need compatibility checks.
Retain Supported URLs and SEO Data
Tell us which URLs and SEO fields need to be retained. Where your route supports URL preservation or 301 redirect options, review their coverage before starting and test relevant samples after the transfer. Custom URL requirements can be assessed as part of the data migration plan.
Migration options can help preserve useful information and reduce broken-link risk. They do not guarantee unchanged search rankings or traffic. Your SEO team should review important destination pages and any URLs outside the agreed migration coverage.
Account for New and Updated Store Records
If the source remains active, identify how new orders, customers, and content will reach the destination after the initial transfer. Recent Data Migration and Smart Update serve different purposes, and their available entities and fields depend on the migration route.
Discuss the final data-update plan before your team begins operating on the destination. Our experts can help confirm eligibility, timing, package limits, and any charges for the relevant update service.
WordPress Data Migration Cost and Timeline
Automated Migration pricing depends on the route, data volume, and selected options. Use the pricing calculator for an initial estimate, then review a Free Demo before purchasing the Full Migration. The Demo transfers a limited sample and is separate from the full paid transfer.
Expert Service pricing reflects the agreed data preparation, custom mapping, transfer, and validation work. The schedule also depends on source access, record counts, media volume, export quality, and any data restructuring. Share your requirements and target date so our team can prepare a practical quote and timeline.
What to Share With Our Migration Experts
- Your current platform and source URL, or the exports available.
- Your WordPress or WooCommerce destination.
- The data types and approximate record counts you need to transfer.
- Examples of custom fields and third-party apps that store essential records.
- Any password, order ID, URL, SEO, or language requirements.
- Your target date and whether the source will keep receiving new records.
Contact LitExtension for help choosing the route or let our experts handle your data migration from preparation through validation.
Do You Also Need Domain, Hosting, or Server Migration?
These are separate services from the data migration described on this page. LitExtension transfers your agreed content and eCommerce records. Domain transfers, hosting or server moves, DNS, SSL, email, and website infrastructure work are outside that scope.
If your project also needs those tasks, LitOS, LitExtension’s partner, can handle them separately, subject to its own assessment, service scope, and pricing. Those fees are separate from your LitExtension data migration fee. Theme recreation, design work, and app functionality are also separate from transferring the underlying data.
No time to prepare exports or configure the transfer? Have custom fields or data stored in third-party apps? LitExtension experts assess your requirements, prepare and map your data, run the Demo and Full Migration, and validate the agreed results. Share your source URL and data requirements to get a tailored migration plan.
What Data Can Be Migrated to WordPress or WooCommerce?
Our WordPress website migration service focuses on content and eCommerce records. Move pages and posts to WordPress, and transfer store data to WooCommerce. Available fields depend on your source, connection method, and destination setup. Check the data list for your route and use the Demo to review representative records.
Fields shown below describe potential migration coverage across routes, rather than a single file import package.
Some data types and custom fields require Expert Service.

The destination needs a compatible multilingual setup and an approved language mapping.
Need custom or third-party app data? Ask our experts to assess custom fields, subscriptions, loyalty records, memberships, and other app-specific data. We review export access, field structure, and destination compatibility before confirming the migration scope. WooCommerce is required for eCommerce records.
Additional Options for Your WordPress Migration
Additional options can help manage destination data, URLs, IDs, and images. Availability and coverage vary by migration route, so review the exact option shown in your setup and verify the result during the Demo.
Create 301 Redirects for Supported URLs
Redirect source URLs covered by the selected option to their corresponding destination URLs. Confirm which page or entity types are included. URLs outside that coverage still need a separate redirect map and implementation plan.
Preserve WooCommerce Order IDs
Retain existing order IDs when the source route and WooCommerce destination support this option. Enable ID preservation during setup and verify representative orders before the destination accepts live transactions.
Remove HTML from Product and Category Names
Strip HTML markup from migrated product and category names so they display as plain text. Review the Demo to confirm meaningful text remains and formatting intended for description fields is unaffected.
Clear Selected Target Data Before Migration
Remove existing destination records for the selected data types before importing incoming records. Back up the destination and verify every selection first.
Migrate Images Embedded in Content
Transfer images found inside supported description and content fields. After the Demo, open representative pages and products to confirm their images use the intended destination URLs instead of relying on the source website.

See our Files Migration guide for supported uploads and preparation instructions.
Use CSV, TSV, XLSX, or XLSM files, Google Sheets, or public links to files on Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive. You can combine these source methods in one Files Migration.
Share links must open without a login and point to individual files. For Google Sheets, share each required tab with view access. See the Files Migration guide for current preparation requirements.
Yes. Install the LitExtension Automated Store Migration & Import plugin to start a supported migration to WordPress or WooCommerce. Enter your source details, choose your data, and review a Free Demo before the Full Migration.
Use WordPress for content records and WooCommerce for eCommerce records. The plugin provides access to LitExtension’s data migration workflow; it does not clone a complete WordPress installation.
Choose Expert Service if you prefer a managed migration, have limited time for DIY setup, or need custom fields and third-party app data assessed. Our experts review your source, prepare the data, configure the mapping, run the Demo and Full Migration, and validate the agreed results.
You provide access and business requirements, review the sample results, and confirm key decisions. We handle the technical data migration work covered by your project.
Our experts can assess app-specific records, custom fields, subscriptions, loyalty data, memberships, and other nonstandard data for migration. We check whether the data can be accessed or exported, how records relate to one another, and where each field will be stored on the destination.
Custom migration is confirmed after assessment. Moving an app’s data does not automatically reproduce the app’s functionality.
Automated Migration pricing depends on your migration route, data volume, and selected options. Use the pricing calculator for an initial estimate. Expert Service is quoted according to the data preparation, mapping, customization, and validation required.
A Free Demo moves a limited sample so you can assess the result. It is separate from the paid Full Migration.
The timeline depends on record counts, media volume, source access, file quality, custom mapping, and validation. A supported standard transfer requires less preparation than a project with several third-party data sources.
Share your source, approximate entity counts, custom requirements, and target date so our team can estimate the complete data migration schedule.
Yes, with WooCommerce installed on your WordPress destination. Available data can include products, variations, categories, customer accounts, orders, reviews, coupons, and taxes, depending on the source and selected route.
Review products and variations, customer details, order items, totals, statuses, and relationships in the Demo. Password and order ID preservation require route-specific compatibility checks.
Yes. Supported pages and blog posts can be migrated to WordPress without installing WooCommerce for those content records. Check the available content fields, images, categories, authors, and URLs for your source route.
Install WooCommerce if you also need to receive store data such as products, customers, and orders.
Your source can generally remain available while data is transferred to the destination. For an active store, plan how new orders, customers, content, and updates will be handled before you begin using the destination.
Our team can review Recent Data Migration and Smart Update eligibility and help define the appropriate data-update schedule for your route.
Recent Data Migration can transfer eligible records created after the initial migration. Smart Update can update eligible fields in records that were previously migrated. Re-migration may be appropriate when a transfer needs to be run again.
Supported entities, timing, limits, and charges vary by route and package. Confirm the update method with our team before your final data review.
URL preservation, 301 redirects, SEO fields, customer passwords, and order ID preservation depend on the source, destination, and available migration options. Tell us which of these are required so we can confirm coverage.
Check sample records and destination URLs in the Demo. These options can help reduce migration risk, but search rankings and traffic cannot be guaranteed.
LitExtension’s service on this page covers data migration. Domain transfers, hosting or server moves, DNS, SSL, and email setup are outside this data migration scope.
If you also need these tasks, they can be handled separately by LitOS, LitExtension’s partner, subject to a separate assessment, scope, and price. They are not included in the LitExtension data migration fee.
Data migration transfers the agreed records. It does not clone theme files, layouts, plugin code, app functionality, or every website setting. Custom fields and app records require assessment to confirm how they will be stored on the destination.
If you need a design rebuild, app replacement, or separate website setup, discuss that work with LitOS under its own scope and pricing.
A direct connection requires the source access specified for that platform. If a direct connection is unavailable but you have usable exports, Files Migration may let you migrate without connecting to the old website.
Provide the relevant files or accessible share links and destination access. Our team can assess incomplete exports or unusual data structures before you proceed.
You can use compatible WordPress export and import tools for supported content, or prepare structured files for a suitable importer. Check media availability, field mapping, and record relationships carefully.
If you want automatic mapping and a Demo, use LitExtension’s Automated Migration Tool or plugin. Choose Expert Service when you want our team to prepare and manage the agreed data transfer.

What Customers Say About Their Data Migration
LitExtension are absolutely brilliant! They migrated our Epages website to WordPress in no time at all. They dealt with all our issues and any problems instantly and the job was completed perfectly, well ahead of schedule. I would strongly recommend!
Excellent customer service both before and post website transfer. I moved my shopify blogs to wordpress. LitExtension answered my queries beforehand as I was apprehensive about a website transfer. The transfer happened and 90% was complete, a couple of things were missed. However the after care was excellent and now managed to have a full transfer with no problems. Highly recommended.
I wanted to migrate my ecommerce store from ZenCart to WooCommerce and I chose LitExtension to help me migrate the data. There are several companies that will help do this but LitExtension provided the most detail on what and how their solution worked… Their assistance made the transition a breeze. It allowed me to focus on the new solution (which is still in progress at this writing) and saved a tremendous amount of time.
