Shopify was a great platform to start with but it comes down to many issues when managing bulk variations. I'm also facing some SEO issues when conducting SEO content and I see this feature is more powerful on WordPress. So, is there any way I can move my store from Shopify to WooCommerce, like moving a home?

There's several way to do it, (note -- none of them will entirely recreate the look, feel, and data of the original store -- you will need to spend some time tweaking things once you get the bulk of the data migrated).

I've migrated stores from several platforms, and usually suggest leaving both the original store and the "new store" running at first, (which will require a second domain), and eventually phasing out the original store and forwarding that domains to the new store.

If you use any Shopify apps, you'll need to check for comparable features or look for similar Woocommerce / Wordpress plugins.

Here's a good article from Woocommece. About halfway down is an outline of "How To" (migrate) and some software solutions that may make it easier.

This is a paid tool that claims to do the migration:
[woocommerce.com ]

It's a 3rd party Woocommerce extension --- I have not used it --- just giving you an idea of what's out there).

I advise you to move to magento 2. I'm moving from magento 1. Everything suits me: it works fast, indexes well, support costs money, but I hired a company for this.

But Woocomerce has its pros and cons and is not suitable for all niches. I advise you to contact professionals.
