Step 1 of 3

Signs it’s time

Signs your online store is losing sales

  • Customers can’t find the product or the answers they need

    If categories, filters and search don’t match how people shop, they leave before they find it. Missing specs, fitment, sizing, shipping costs or photos send buyers to a competitor who has them.

  • Checkout has too many steps

    Every extra field, forced account and surprise fee is a reason to abandon the cart.

  • It’s slow or clumsy on phones

    Most shoppers browse on a phone. A store that’s hard to use there loses the sale.

  • Managing it eats your time

    If updating products, prices or inventory is a chore, the store falls behind.

An ecommerce website should be easy to shop, easy to trust, and easy to manage.

WooCommerce or Shopify?
Choosing the right platform

We build on both, so we recommend the one that fits your business, not the one we prefer.

You have one point of contact from the first call to launch, and you always know what happens next.

    We review your products, how customers shop, payment and shipping needs, and recommend WooCommerce or Shopify, with a fixed price.

    Structure & content

    We plan categories, filters and product page content, then wireframe the shopping path from homepage to checkout.

    Design & build

    You approve the design, then we build the store, load products, and connect payments, shipping and tax.

FAQ

Ecommerce website questions.
Clear answers.

The questions we hear most before a store build starts.

WordPress vs ShopifyHow much does a website cost?Website maintenance plans

How much does an ecommerce website cost?

It depends on catalog size, platform and integrations. You get a fixed price after we review your catalog.

Should I use WooCommerce or Shopify?

Shopify suits straightforward stores that want hosting handled. WooCommerce suits custom catalogs, B2B pricing and stores that need full control. We recommend one after reviewing your products and operations.

Can you move my store from another platform?

Yes. We migrate products, customers and order history where the platforms allow it, and redirect old product URLs to keep your search rankings. See website redesign.

How many products can you load?

Your proposal states how many products we import. Larger catalogs can be imported from a spreadsheet.

Can you handle wholesale or B2B pricing?

Yes. We’ve built stores with buyer roles, tiered pricing and account-only catalogs.

Will I be able to manage the store myself?

Yes. We train you on adding products, updating prices and processing orders. Ongoing help is available with a maintenance plan.

How long does it take to build an online store?

Most stores take 6–8 weeks, depending on catalog size and integrations.
