Your Online Store Should Be Your Best Salesperson
Plenty of UK businesses have an online shop that technically works but quietly underperforms. Pages load slowly on mobile, product information is thin, the checkout asks for too much, and shipping costs appear as a surprise at the last step. Visitors arrive, browse and leave, and because the store never tells you why, the assumption is that more traffic is the answer. Usually it is not.

How We Deliver
Discovery & Platform Recommendation
We map your catalogue, pricing structure, shipping rules, payment needs and the systems the store must talk to. Based on that, we recommend Shopify or WooCommerce with clear reasons, and provide a fixed quote and timeline.
Design & Build
We design the key page templates and, once approved, build the store. Products are structured for search and filtering, product pages are written and laid out to convert, and the checkout is configured for as little friction as possible.
Integration, Testing & Launch
We connect payments, shipping, accounting and marketing tools, then test across devices with real transactions. Analytics and conversion tracking are set up before launch so you have data from day one. Migrations are scheduled to avoid downtime.
Optimise & Support
After launch we monitor speed, errors and conversion, fix what needs fixing, and suggest improvements. Many clients move onto a monthly plan combining support with conversion rate optimisation and marketing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an e-commerce website cost in the UK?
It depends on catalogue size, design requirements and integrations. Our e-commerce builds start from £2,995 as a fixed one-off project fee, with ongoing support available from £399 per month. Platform subscriptions, apps and payment processing fees are separate. Full details are on our pricing page.
Should I choose Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify is a hosted, all-in-one platform: reliable, secure and easy to run without technical staff, with a monthly fee and transaction charges. WooCommerce runs on WordPress, gives you full ownership and flexibility, and suits businesses with complex products, B2B pricing or an existing WordPress site, but you are responsible for hosting and updates. We will recommend based on your products and how you operate, not on what is easiest for us.
Can you migrate my existing store without losing SEO rankings?
Yes. We export and clean your product, customer and order data, rebuild the URL structure or map 301 redirects from every old URL, and carry across page titles and descriptions. Our SEO service monitors rankings through the switchover so any dips are caught and addressed quickly.
How long does it take to build an online store?
A typical Shopify or WooCommerce store takes four to eight weeks from kick-off to launch. Simple stores with a small catalogue can be quicker; large migrations or stores with custom integrations take longer. We set milestones at the start so you always know where the project stands.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?
Yes. Our monthly plans cover updates, security, backups, performance monitoring and a set amount of development time for improvements, with no long-term contract. Most clients also use us for email, paid advertising or SEO so the store and its marketing are managed together. Talk to us about what you need.
