Why is preserving URLs and metadata crucial during a WooCommerce migration?

Maintaining URLs and metadata helps protect search rankings and referral traffic after the migration. When product pages keep their existing structure or are redirected properly, search engines and customers continue to find the site without losing visibility.

This continuity is especially important for established catalogs that rely on organic search and repeat visitors. It makes the transition smoother and preserves the value of the existing store.
