Hi

I’m in the process of migrating our website from Magento to Shopify. I’ve set up 301 re directs for all our pages and products. I’ve noticed that we also have a lot of backlinks pointing at our images. To preserve our SEO is there a way of setting up re directs for our images? Some software that could deal with this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Andy
