Shopify Development

Shopify stores built to sell, with custom sections, a clean checkout flow and product pages that rank.

Overview

What this service covers

A Shopify store only pays for itself when visitors can find what they want and check out without friction. I set up and customise Shopify stores with custom Liquid sections, a fast theme and product pages written for search, so you spend less on ads to get the same sales.

What I do

  • New store setup on Dawn or a premium theme
  • Custom Liquid sections and theme customisation
  • Product, collection and variant structure that scales
  • Payment, shipping, tax and multi-currency setup
  • App selection and integration without slowing the store
  • Migration from WooCommerce, Wix or another platform

What you get

  • A fully working store with test orders completed
  • Product page SEO, structured data and clean URLs
  • Speed optimisation for images, apps and theme code
  • Analytics and conversion tracking set up
  • A guide to adding products and running your store
  • 30 days of free support after launch

How it works

How your shopify development project runs

Four stages with a checkpoint at the end of each, so you always know what is happening and what comes next.

  1. Step 01

    We start with your customer, not your website

    Before any design or code, I look at what your buyers type into Google, who already ranks for it and where your current enquiries really come from.

    Week 1Research and page plan
    • Keyword research based on real buying searches
    • A look at the three competitors ranking above you
    • A page plan that follows how people actually search
  2. Step 02

    You see the design before anything is built

    I design every page in Figma first. You click through it on your own phone, tell me what feels off, and we fix it before a single line of code.

    2 roundsOf design changes included
    • Mobile-first layouts you can click through
    • One clear next step on every page
    • Your brand colours, fonts and tone of voice
  3. Step 03

    Built clean, so it stays fast

    No stack of page builders and plugins fighting each other. Light code, compressed images and only the scripts a page really needs.

    90+Mobile PageSpeed target
    • Core Web Vitals checked before launch
    • Schema, meta tags and clean URLs on every page
    • Forms, WhatsApp and call tracking tested end to end
  4. Step 04

    Launch, then grow it with marketing

    Going live is where the real work starts. I connect Analytics and Search Console, watch what visitors do and keep improving what brings in enquiries.

FAQs

Shopify Development: common questions

Not always. The free Dawn theme is fast and flexible, and custom sections can make it look unique. I recommend a premium theme only when it saves real development time.

Yes. Products, customers and order history can be moved, and I set up redirects so your existing Google rankings carry over to the new URLs.

No. Your Shopify plan, paid apps and theme licence are billed by Shopify directly to you. You own the store and every account from day one.
