WooCommerce stores you own.
WooCommerce hands you the whole stack. We make that ownership pay, with custom builds, disciplined plugin work, and rescues for stores that have slowed to a crawl.
“Will you understand how my shop sells?”
WooCommerce development that starts with your catalogue
WooCommerce will do almost anything you ask of it, which is why an unscoped build goes wrong.
So we start with the catalogue. How many products, how they vary, and which rules decide the price. Trade tiers, bundles, deposits, bookings, a delivery table that changes by postcode. Those rules decide how much of your store gets written rather than installed, and they go into the brief with the order target beside them.
The running costs go in the same document: hosting, the gateway percentage, and the few paid extensions your rules genuinely need. WooCommerce charges no licence, and that is only half the sum, so you see the whole of it before you commit.
Send us your catalogue and your pricing rules →“Will I like what you build?”
Custom WooCommerce builds
Your store starts as an empty file, the same way every theme we write does. We design around your catalogue first, then build the templates, the product logic, and the checkout to match. Bundles, trade pricing, deposits, bookings: WooCommerce handles all of it once someone writes the code with intent.
We keep the plugin count low by writing what your store needs into the theme and one custom plugin. Fewer moving parts means fewer conflicts on update day and a lighter database under load. Builds ship inside six weeks, load in under a second, and carry a fixed quote agreed before we start.
Plugin and performance work
When a store needs a feature the ecosystem sells as three overlapping plugins, we write one that does the job. Custom shipping rules, ERP syncs, subscription logic, gateway integrations: built on WooCommerce’s own hooks so updates pass without drama.
Speed work follows the same discipline. We profile the store, find the queries and plugins eating the load time, and fix them in the order that costs you most. Object caching, an image pipeline, a database cleanup, code your hosting can serve fast. Then we walk the path from product to payment on a mid-range phone and time it, because a second saved on the product page is baskets that survive to checkout.
“Will I enjoy working with you?”
A WooCommerce agency that builds Shopify too
We hold no WooCommerce licence to defend, so we can tell you when it is the wrong answer.
Choose WooCommerce when content and commerce share one site, when your pricing needs logic no hosted platform allows, or when you want to own every line of the stack. You pay hosting in place of platform fees, extend whatever you like, and keep the WordPress dashboard your team already knows. Stores with heavy editorial or custom pricing rules do their best work here.
A small team that wants hosting, checkout, and compliance handled should look at Shopify, and we build there too. A high-traffic brand chasing milliseconds should read our headless Shopify page. We put the trade-offs in figures on the first call, so the platform decision costs you a conversation and spares you a rebuild.
Scope
We agree the order target, write down every pricing rule, and set the hosting and extension costs beside the build. One fixed quote, in writing.
Shape
Product page, category page, and checkout get shaped first. You approve the path a buyer takes before we build anything around it.
Build
We write the theme and one custom plugin, connect payments and shipping, and load the catalogue. The whole path gets walked on a real phone before launch.
Hand over
You get the WordPress dashboard your team already uses, plus a care plan that stages every core and plugin update on a copy before it touches the shop.
“Will this actually make me money?”
WooCommerce rescue and speed-up
A share of our WooCommerce work arrives as a rescue. A store built three agencies ago, forty plugins deep, taking eight seconds to show a product and falling over on the busiest day of the week. We take those on.
Week one is an audit: what runs, what conflicts, and what those eight seconds cost you in baskets nobody finished. Then we fix in order of return, and you approve each stage against the audit. Some stores need surgery and some need a rebuild, and we tell you which before you commit money to either. The shop keeps trading throughout, and most rescues finish inside three weeks.
The order target from chapter one is the number the finished store answers to. Every URL that ranks survives the work, the rest get redirected, and the commission a marketplace used to take stays with you.
Send us the store to audit →WooCommerce questions, answered
How much does a WooCommerce store cost?
WooCommerce and WordPress cost nothing to licence, so your money goes on the build and hosting. We quote one fixed figure after scoping your catalogue and integrations, before any work starts. Writing the theme ourselves means no recurring theme or page-builder fees.
Can you fix a slow WooCommerce store without rebuilding it?
In most cases, yes. We audit first: profiling shows whether the weight sits in plugins, queries, hosting, or the theme. If a fix gets you to fast, we fix. If the audit shows a rebuild pays back sooner, we show you the sums and you choose.
How long does a WooCommerce build take?
Six weeks on average. Rescue and speed-up work runs shorter, most inside three weeks, because the store already exists. Migrations from Shopify or Magento add two to four weeks for catalogue mapping and redirects.
Do you support WooCommerce stores after launch?
Our care plans cover core, WooCommerce, and plugin updates staged on a test copy first, plus daily backups and security patching. We tell you in plain English what we updated, what it changed, and anything that needs your decision.
Your WooCommerce store ships with a number attached.
Tell us what the store needs to sell. We scope it, quote a fixed figure, and set the target the build has to hit.
And if the site has not returned what it cost inside its first year, the re-design and the rebuild are free.
