    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can reviews and photos be transferred?

    Reviews can be transferred via export or by scraping public pages if the export does not include them. Photos are transferred in full with correct file names and alt text.

    What about rankings in Google?

    We prepare a 301 redirect map for each URL and preserve meta tags, title, and description. In the first one or two weeks, fluctuations may occur, but then rankings return. Many clients even see an increase, as ocStore is faster and easier to optimize.

    Will orders and customers be transferred?

    It depends on the Horoshop export. If admin access provides CSV export, then yes. If not, then through HTML scraping with some losses. It's better to transfer during a quiet sales period.

    How long does it take to transfer the store?

    It depends on the volume. For up to 1000 products, we complete it in 14 to 21 days. For 1000 to 5000 products, it takes 21 to 30 days. Larger catalogs are transferred in 30 to 60 days.

    Real projects we delivered for clients on Freelancehunt.

    10/10

    «We worked on a project using OpenCart. The freelancer proved to be a highly competent and responsible specialist. All tasks were completed quickly, efficiently, and with a clear understanding of the online store's specifics. I would particularly like to highlight: - strong knowledge of OpenCart and the system structure; - meticulous work with the database and modules; - a thoughtful approach to enhancements without "breaking" existing functionality; - constant communication and prompt responses; - the ability to propose technically sound solutions rather than just executing tasks "as written." The work included complex integrations and enhancements, all carried out professionally. After implementation, the site operates more reliably and faster. I recommend them as a reliable developer with OpenCart. We will continue our collaboration.»

    «Ruslan handled the migration project of an existing functioning online store from WordPress+WooCommerce to OpenCart+KeyCRM. During this time, the store continued to operate during the peak season. The process and results of working with Ruslan exceeded all expectations: he helped draft the technical specifications, and then, of course, there was a whole list of questions and clarifications, everything was done instantly, understood with half a word, nothing superfluous, concise and professional! He truly reads minds and implements in the best way. I recommend him if you need a professional and thoughtful approach! Communication was also perfect - he reminds but doesn't pressure, and responds very quickly. Wishing you success!»
