06 / SIMPLE FROM THE START
Less back-and-forth.
More getting there.
Clear scope, regular conversations, and room for your feedback. Here’s how we get from a first conversation to a store you’re ready to share.
Tell us about your store
Bring your idea, your existing site, or the problem you’re trying to solve. We’ll work out the right starting point together.
Agree on the plan
You get a written scope with deliverables, costs, timelines, and responsibilities before the project begins.
Build, review, refine
See the work as it takes shape. We review the details, take your feedback, and test the agreed shopping journeys.
Launch, then look ahead
We plan the handover and help you get comfortable with your store. Add ongoing support or marketing when it makes sense.
Efficient tools. Accountable people.
We use AI to speed up selected research, development, and repetitive tasks. Our team still reviews the design, checks the work, and tests your store. That helps us keep focused projects competitively priced.
07 / GOOD QUESTIONS
Let’s clear
a few things up.
Still wondering about something?
We’re happy to talk it through.
How much does an ecommerce website cost?
Our proposed starting packages are $799 for a focused WooCommerce store and $1,199 for a Shopify setup. The final price depends on your catalog, design, features, and integrations. Use the estimator for a planning figure; we confirm the scope and price in writing before work begins. Hosting, platform subscriptions, paid apps, advertising spend, and applicable taxes are separate.
Should I choose Shopify, WooCommerce, or Magento?
Start with how you sell and how you want to manage the store. We’ll look at your catalog, budget, integrations, team, and future plans, then explain the trade-offs in plain English. The right platform is the one that fits your business and its ongoing running costs.
Can you redesign my existing online store?
Yes. We can review your current store and plan changes to its layout, navigation, product pages, and mobile experience. The agreed scope will explain what is being redesigned and which existing features need to be retained.
Can you migrate WordPress/WooCommerce to Shopify or Magento?
Yes. We support WooCommerce to Shopify, WooCommerce to Magento, and Magento to Shopify migrations. We first assess both platforms, then agree on the data, features, redirects, and testing included. Some features need rebuilding or a compatible replacement.
Will my customer data and order history transfer?
We confirm supported data before quoting. Products, customers, and orders may need cleanup or field mapping, and some platform data cannot transfer directly. Passwords, payment details, and subscriptions need special consideration; customer account activation or password resets may be required.
Will a migration affect my SEO?
A platform change can affect search visibility. We plan URL mapping and redirects, review important metadata, and check the new store before and after launch. Rankings can fluctuate, so we don’t promise that every position will stay unchanged.
Can I add marketing or store management later?
Yes. Add SEO and AI search visibility, social media, advertising management, email marketing, or store support when you need it. You can also hire us for these services without buying a new website. Each service has a defined scope and monthly cost, agreed before onboarding.
What do SEO, AEO, and GEO mean for my store?
SEO helps search engines discover and understand your store. AEO focuses on clear answers to customer questions. GEO considers how content may be referenced in AI-generated responses. The work overlaps: useful content, accessible pages, accurate product information, and credible evidence. Rankings and AI citations are not guaranteed.
Will I own my store and be able to update it?
Your domain, store accounts, product data, and supplied brand assets stay yours. The proposal sets out the handover of project-specific work after agreed payments. We include a basic handover for the functions we build. Third-party themes, apps, and platforms remain subject to their own licenses.
How quickly can you launch a WooCommerce store?
A focused Quick Launch project is planned for around 2–3 weeks after scope, content, product data, and access are ready. Review delays or additional requirements can change the schedule. We agree on a realistic timeline before starting.
