E-shop development with WooCommerce
We build online shops on WooCommerce, from a simple catalogue to custom themes, B2B ordering and integrations, for companies directly and for agencies as a white label service.
Which type of shop you need
An e-shop is a different discipline from a presentation website. It handles payments, stock, shipping and the management of hundreds of products. We build shops so that they can cope with growing ranges and more orders without having to change the platform in a few years.
| Solution | For whom | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| WooCommerce shop | From a small range to thousands of products | The platform on which we build most shops |
| Custom e-shop | Unusual range, many products, a specific design or connection to your own systems | WooCommerce with a theme and plug-ins made to your design |
| B2B shop | Companies selling to other companies | Dealer prices and access after login |
What building a shop includes
| Area | What it solves |
|---|---|
| Category structure | A clear division of the range matching how customers really shop |
| Payments and delivery | Payment gateways and carriers relevant to your market |
| Technical SEO | Speed and indexing of product pages, which matter with hundreds of items |
| B2B and B2C logic | Different price lists and conditions for different customer types, where needed |
Choosing a platform
A ready-made solution, such as WooCommerce with a purchased theme, is quicker to launch and cheaper. A custom e-shop is WooCommerce with a theme and plug-ins made to your design. It makes sense for an unusual range, a very large number of products, a distinctive look or a connection to your own systems. We recommend one only after assessing your case, not automatically by what is simpler to build.
Why speed decides in a shop
In a shop even a small slowdown is multiplied by the number of product pages, so the effect on search visibility and on the share of completed orders is larger than on a small presentation site. We deal with speed at the design stage, not afterwards.
What a shop needs besides the site
- Good product photography, which affects conversion directly.
- Marketing for the launch and continuous sales: SEO and PPC.
- A plan for the GDPR, terms and conditions and consumer protection.
- Accessible design. The European Accessibility Act covers e-commerce among other services; see European quality.
For agencies: white label delivery
Agencies often sell the shop and the strategy, and need a builder for the technical part. We build WooCommerce shops and themes to your design, with custom features and integrations, and deliver them under your brand. We agree the delivery model, scope and handover in writing. See white label services.
How the work runs
- Analysis of range and processes. How many products, which categories, which payments and delivery.
- Platform choice. A ready solution or a custom shop, whichever the real need requires.
- Design and build. Structure, templates, payments and shipping, products imported from your data.
- Testing and launch. Test orders, speed checks and a plan for the first weeks.
Common mistakes when launching a shop
- Starting without the legal basics: terms, returns and privacy information.
- A range imported without a clear category structure.
- No plan for traffic. A shop does not sell just because it exists.
- Neglecting speed until the catalogue is already large.
Frequently asked questions
05 questions
Which platform do you build e-shops on?
Mostly on WooCommerce, a WordPress-based shop system. It gives the owner control of the code and the data, and it scales from a small range to thousands of products.
Can you build a B2B shop with dealer prices?
Yes. A B2B shop with separate price lists and access after login is part of our offer. We do not offer order approval workflows.
Do you migrate shops from other platforms?
Migration is quoted separately, because it depends on the size of the range and the source platform.
Are payments and shipping included?
Connecting payment gateways and carriers for your market is part of the build. Transaction fees of the providers are paid by the shop owner.
Can you build a shop for our client as a white label job?
Yes. We deliver the shop under your brand, with confidentiality and terms agreed in writing first.
