Online Store Development

Platform selection depends on your business needs, technical comfort, and growth plans. Shopify is ideal for businesses wanting ease of use with professional features and extensive app ecosystem. WooCommerce works best for companies already using WordPress or needing extensive customization. BigCommerce suits businesses with large product catalogs, while custom solutions serve unique business models. We analyze your specific requirements, product types, and long-term goals to recommend the platform that will grow with your business and provide the best return on investment.

Most professional e-commerce websites take 4-8 weeks to develop, depending on platform complexity, number of products, and custom features required. Simple Shopify stores with basic customization typically launch in 3-4 weeks, while complex WooCommerce sites with custom functionality may take 6-10 weeks. Timeline factors include content preparation, product photography, payment gateway setup, and testing phases. We provide detailed project timelines during consultation and maintain regular communication throughout development to ensure on-time delivery.
