What's in an ecommerce web design project
Everything a shop needs to sell on day one, from one senior team.
Product and category pages that sell
Clear photos, specs, delivery and returns where buyers look for them, with one obvious next step. The product page is where most shops win or lose the sale.
Fast on a phone
Light pages and compressed images, because most shoppers browse on mobile.
A short checkout
Fewer steps, guest checkout and the payment options your buyers expect.
Sales tracking
Purchases sent to analytics, Google Ads and Meta, so you know which channel sells.
Product feeds
Your catalogue set up for Google Merchant Center, ready for Shopping ads and free listings.
SEO and AI search ready
Product schema, clean URLs and every price and spec in the HTML, so Google and AI assistants can read it.
Shopify web design and replatforming
New shop or a move from your old one
- Shopify buildsCustom design on Shopify, without stacking apps until the site slows down.
- Moving platformsProducts, customers and order history moved across, with every old URL redirected so you keep your rankings.
- RedesignsWe keep what sells, fix what doesn't and test the checkout on real phones before launch.
- IntegrationsStock, accounts, couriers and your CRM connected, so orders don't need retyping.
