E-commerce Website Design - Built to Sell, Not Just to Look Good
An e-commerce website that doesn't convert is an expensive hobby. The difference between an online shop that generates significant revenue and one that limps along is almost always in the details: page speed, mobile usability, checkout friction, and SEO foundations.

Web Design for E-commerce
An e-commerce website that doesn't convert is an expensive hobby. Beautiful product photography, a clean design, and a recognisable brand are all necessary - but they're not sufficient. The difference between an online shop that generates significant revenue and one that limps along is almost always in the details: page speed, mobile usability, checkout friction, product page content quality, and the SEO foundations that determine whether anyone finds you in the first place.
We build e-commerce websites with the commercial outcomes in mind from the first decision. Not just "here's a nice online shop" - but a considered platform built to convert the traffic it receives and to be found by more of the right people over time.
Performance - The Conversion Rate Factor Most Retailers Ignore
Page speed directly affects e-commerce conversion rates. A one-second delay in load time on a product page can reduce conversions by up to 7%. On mobile - where the majority of e-commerce browsing happens - the impact is even greater. We build e-commerce sites that load fast because the commercial case for doing so is overwhelming.
Every e-commerce site we deliver scores 90+ on Google PageSpeed, uses next-gen image formats, implements lazy loading properly, and is built on a codebase that doesn't accumulate performance debt with every plugin installed.
SEO for E-commerce - Category Pages, Product Pages, and Content
E-commerce SEO is a discipline in itself. Category page architecture, product page optimisation, handling of faceted navigation, duplicate content management, structured data for products and reviews - these are the areas where e-commerce SEO differs significantly from service business SEO. We understand these differences and build the foundations in from the start.
For growing e-commerce businesses, a content strategy that targets informational searches in your product category - buying guides, comparison content, use-case articles - builds topical authority and drives organic traffic that converts differently to direct product searches.

Frequently Asked Questions
01 Do you build WooCommerce sites?
Yes. WooCommerce on a properly configured WordPress build - not bloated with unnecessary plugins - is our most common e-commerce approach. It's flexible, powerful, and gives you full ownership of your store without ongoing platform fees.
02 Can you migrate our existing e-commerce store to a new platform?
Yes. E-commerce migrations require careful handling to preserve SEO equity - redirects, URL structure, product data. We manage migrations with this in mind.
03 Do you run PPC for e-commerce businesses?
Yes. Google Shopping is particularly effective for product-based businesses and something we manage alongside search campaigns. Well-managed Shopping campaigns consistently deliver strong return on ad spend for e-commerce.
04 Can you build a B2B e-commerce site with account-based pricing?
Yes. B2B e-commerce has specific requirements - trade accounts, price lists, minimum orders, purchase order management - that we've built before and understand.
05 How do you handle product photography and content on e-commerce sites?
We build product page templates that present photography effectively and structure product descriptions for both conversion and SEO. We can advise on photography standards and write product copy as an add-on service if needed.
