SEO Migration Mercado Shops
Mercado Shops is closing: Migrate your store without losing traffic or sales
At Seotronix, we migrate your ecommerce to Tiendanube, Shopify, or WooCommerce without complications, without risks, and while maintaining your Google rankings.
Your store on Mercado Shops has an expiration date.
The closure of Mercado Shops is a reality: starting December 31, 2025, the platform will no longer be available.
Mercado Libre officially announced that Mercado Shops will be discontinued to focus all efforts on strengthening the Mercado Libre and Mercado Ads ecosystem., leaving behind the possibility of having independent stores under its infrastructure. This means that all stores created on Mercado Shops will be taken down, and it will no longer be possible to maintain your ecommerce on that platform.
You can find official information from Mercado Libre here.

How NOT to lose sales during your SEO migration
At Seotronix, after supporting dozens of ecommerce migrations, we’ve identified three types of clients who switch platforms. The difference between them lies not only in the traffic they retain, but also in the sales they manage to maintain or lose during the transition:
The one who plans ahead (the ideal)
Works with an SEO agency from the beginning, planning the migration as preventive maintenance: URLs are documented, the structure is audited, 301 redirects are implemented, and metadata and load metrics are tested.
Result: Zero loss of traffic and sales. In fact, improvements are often seen post-migration thanks to a more optimized structure.
The one who gives notice a day before
The site is ready to go live… and only then does SEO come in. The problem: a proper migration requires prior analysis and time. In these cases, it’s usually necessary to rebuild code blocks, modify structures, or rewrite content to meet SEO best practices.
Result: The loss can be mitigated, but it takes more time, money, and resources than if it had been planned from the start.
The one who already migrated (and lost traffic)
This is the most critical scenario. The store is already online, but it has lost rankings, traffic, and sales. In these cases, a deep SEO audit is needed: compare the new site vs the old one, rebuild the architecture, recover internal and external links, and implement redirects.
Result: Recovering what was lost can take months, and it’s not always possible to return to the starting point.
Migrating an online store is not just a platform change. It’s a delicate technical process, where every misstep can seriously impact your visibility and sales.

Frequently asked questions
No, as long as the migration is well planned. If redirects are properly implemented, the SEO structure is preserved, and metadata is transferred, you can maintain — and even improve — your rankings.
It depends on the new platform. Some allow you to replicate the original structure, others don’t. What matters is implementing 301 redirects from the old URLs to the new ones so that Google and your users don’t encounter errors.
If the migration is done correctly, the impact can be minimal and traffic stabilizes within a few days. If mistakes are made, the process can take weeks or even months to recover.
Migration is a great opportunity to optimize everything that was previously difficult to change: category structure, load times, duplicate content, metadata, internal linking, etc. Many clients achieve better rankings after a strategic migration.
Each platform has advantages and limitations. The key is that it allows optimization of URLs, titles, meta descriptions, redirects, loading speed, and structured data. At Seotronix, we evaluate this before defining the migration plan.
It’s essential to migrate each product and category URL with a properly implemented 301 redirect. You also need to ensure that titles, descriptions, texts, and optimized images are preserved. A common mistake is losing valuable content during the migration.
Yes, and it’s highly recommended. Many stores misuse filters or don’t index relevant categories. During migration, you can plan a solid SEO architecture that improves your ranking in key searches.
