Create8
Company Overview
Create8 is a Stockport and Manchester ecommerce growth agency specializing in Shopify strategy, UX and development. The agency works with retailers that need to migrate from legacy ecommerce systems, simplify store management or improve the buying journey through stronger search, navigation and storefront design.
Its commerce process covers discovery, wireframing, UX/UI, Shopify implementation, data migration and SEO transition planning. That combination is useful for merchants where the technical move to Shopify is only one part of the project and search visibility, catalogue integrity and conversion performance must be protected at the same time.
The Journal Shop is an official Magento-to-Shopify project in which Create8 handled search, filtering, redirects and SEO review alongside the storefront rebuild. Starr Tattoo is a more complex migration: Create8 says it transferred 100% of complex variants, orders and artist data and saw both conversion and average order value increase after launch. These cases show strong experience with migration-heavy Shopify work rather than simple greenfield stores.
