Ecommerce Development
We build online stores with clean product pages, fast category browsing, and a checkout that works on phones, connected to your payments, shipping, and inventory.
Where this fits in the funnel
A smoother checkout
Fewer steps, guest checkout, clear shipping costs, and local payment methods remove the common reasons shoppers abandon a cart.
Catalog that scales
Structured categories, filters, and product attributes keep the store easy to browse and manage as you add more products.
Ready for marketing
Product schema, shopping feeds, and purchase tracking are in place at launch, so SEO and ad campaigns can start with clean data.
What Ecommerce Development involves
An online store has more moving parts than a brochure site. Products need variants, stock levels, and shipping rules. Payments have to work in the currencies and methods your customers use. Category pages must stay fast with hundreds of items. We plan these details before building, because a store that looks good but fails at checkout, tax, or delivery options loses orders quietly.
We build mainly on Shopify and WooCommerce, and we help you choose between them based on catalog size, budget, and how much custom logic you need. Product data is structured properly from the start, with clean titles, attributes, and images sized for speed. We set up product schema, a Merchant Center feed, and ecommerce tracking in GA4, so the store is ready for SEO and ads from launch day.
Deliverables you can point to

Product data import
Bulk import of products, variants, prices, and images from spreadsheets or your old store, with cleanup of titles and duplicates.
Inventory and shipping integrations
Connections to your courier, inventory, accounting, or ERP tools through apps or APIs, so orders and stock stay in sync.
Ecommerce tracking
GA4 ecommerce events, ad platform pixels, and server-side or enhanced conversions where supported, verified with test orders before launch.
Transactional emails
Order confirmation, shipping, abandoned cart, and refund emails branded and tested, with SPF and DKIM sender authentication set up so they reach the inbox.
How the work runs
Scope the store
We review your catalog, order flow, payment needs, and shipping rules, then recommend a platform and send a custom proposal covering build, integrations, and timeline.
Plan the catalog
We define categories, filters, attributes, and URL structure, and prepare the product import template so your data is clean before it enters the store.
Design templates
We wireframe and design the homepage, category, product, cart, and checkout screens, mobile first, and revise them with you in agreed feedback rounds.
Build and integrate
We develop the theme on a staging store, import products, connect payments, shipping, and inventory tools, and set up tracking, emails, and legal pages.
Test and launch
We place test orders through every payment and shipping path, check refunds and emails, then launch, submit the sitemap, and monitor orders and errors closely.

Ecommerce Development FAQ
Should I use Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify is hosted, stable, and quick to manage, which suits most stores that want low maintenance. WooCommerce runs on WordPress, gives more control over custom logic and content, and needs proper hosting and upkeep. The right choice depends on your catalog, integrations, budget, and who will manage the store. We set out the trade-offs in writing before you decide.
How much does an ecommerce site cost?
Pricing starts at $10,000 per project. Pricing is scoped per project via a custom proposal. The main cost drivers are the number of products and templates, custom features, integrations with shipping or accounting systems, and data migration. Platform fees, apps, and payment processing charges are paid by you directly to those providers, and we list the ones we expect so there are no surprises.
Can you migrate my existing store?
Yes. We export products, customers, and order history where the platforms allow it, clean the data, and import it into the new store. Old product and category URLs are mapped to new ones with 301 redirects so search traffic is not lost. Customer passwords usually cannot be moved between platforms, so we plan an account reactivation email.
Which payment methods can you set up?
That depends on your country and the platform. We commonly configure card gateways, digital wallets, bank transfer, and cash on delivery, and we check which providers support your business location and currencies before the build. You apply for the merchant accounts yourself because providers need to verify the business owner, and we handle the technical connection and testing.
Will you manage the store after launch?
If you want us to. Many clients run daily operations themselves after training and keep us for updates, new features, and fixes through a maintenance plan. We can also handle marketing for the store, including SEO, shopping ads, and email flows. All of that is optional and scoped separately from the build.
