A store owner using the free Refresh theme reports zero sales and poor traffic over 9 months, attributing this to limitations in speed, design, navigation, and SEO capabilities. They’re seeking recommendations for better-performing themes and guidance on migration without losing existing product and page setups.
Recommended Solutions:
Migration Approach:
The standard process involves backing up the current store, installing the new theme, manually transferring content and settings, thorough testing across devices, then publishing.
Alternative Option:
The original poster asks whether using PageFly page builder on the existing Refresh theme could achieve improvements without full theme migration. One respondent confirms PageFly can work with the current theme, though this doesn’t address the underlying theme performance issues.
The discussion remains open regarding whether to migrate themes or use a page builder workaround.
Hi TTM2!
It sounds like you’ve been working hard on your store, and it’s frustrating when results don’t match your efforts. The Refresh theme does have its limits, especially with speed, design, navigation, and SEO, which can affect traffic and sales.
I’d suggest upgrading to the Scrowp theme. It’s faster, has better designs, and is optimized for SEO, helping you attract more visitors and boost sales. Plus, its user-friendly layout makes navigation smoother for shoppers.
