E-Commerce & Shopify Development

Stores that sell like systems

E-commerce development is the work of designing, building, and optimising an online store so it can attract shoppers, earn trust, and turn browsing into orders and repeat customers. MarkAge360 builds high-converting storefronts on Shopify, Shopify Plus, and headless commerce — merchandising, product and checkout UX, subscriptions, payments, and marketplace integrations engineered around revenue, AOV, and retention.

E-commerce approach

We turn browsing into orders — and orders into repeat revenue.

We build with intent — grounded in merchandising, guided by data, and aligned to revenue. Customer research, storefront UX, conversion-rate optimisation, and checkout engineering run as one workflow, so every store we ship is a high-performing commerce engine built to convert, lift AOV, and bring shoppers back.

Merchandising & storefront strategy

Every store starts with the shopper and the catalogue. Through audience and competitor research, analytics audits, and merchandising strategy, we map collections, navigation, pricing, and the path from first click to checkout. Search, filtering, and information architecture are designed around how your customers actually browse and buy — so the storefront is built around intent, not guesswork.

Product & conversion UX

Next we design the journey that converts. Product pages, galleries, variants, reviews, upsells, and cart UX turn interest into add-to-carts — every screen tied to a measurable job: conversion rate, average order value, or retention. We pressure-test the flow mobile-first, where most commerce traffic lands, removing friction before a pixel ships.

Checkout, payments & retention

Then we engineer the part that takes the money. A fast, trusted checkout with Shop Pay and express options, subscriptions, accurate tax and shipping, and post-purchase flows that bring shoppers back. Built on Shopify, Shopify Plus, or headless — with the integrations, speed, and reliability a growing store depends on from the first order to the hundred-thousandth.

E-Commerce & Shopify Development FAQ

Straight answers beforeyou build the store

Straight answers on Shopify and headless builds, pricing, timelines, and the conversion and retention outcomes that pay for the store.

What does e-commerce and Shopify development include?

We design and build the full store: merchandising and collection structure, product and category pages, cart and checkout UX, theme or headless front-end, payments, subscriptions, and marketplace and app integrations. MarkAge360 works on Shopify, Shopify Plus, and headless commerce, and we tie every screen to a measurable job — conversion rate, average order value, or retention — rather than just shipping a template.

How much does a Shopify store cost, and how is it priced?

Pricing depends on scope: a focused theme build with custom sections costs far less than a Shopify Plus or headless storefront with subscriptions, ERP, and multi-market logic. We scope each project to a fixed price or a phased build after a short discovery call, so you see the number before work starts. Platform fees (your Shopify plan, apps, and payment processing) are separate from our build fee, and we flag those early so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to launch a store?

A streamlined Shopify storefront typically launches in a few weeks; a larger catalogue, custom checkout on Plus, subscriptions, or a headless build runs longer. After discovery we give you a milestone timeline covering design, build, content and product loading, QA, and launch. We work in reviewable stages so you can see and approve the store as it comes together rather than waiting for one big reveal.

Shopify or a headless build — which should I choose?

For most merchants, standard Shopify or Shopify Plus is faster to launch, cheaper to maintain, and powerful enough to grow with. Headless makes sense when you need a highly custom front-end, content-heavy storytelling, multiple front-ends from one catalogue, or performance gains that a theme can't reach. We recommend the lighter option that meets your goals and only go headless when the business case is real, so you aren't paying for complexity you won't use.

Can you migrate my existing store without losing SEO?

Yes — protecting SEO is a core part of any migration. We map every old URL to its new one with 301 redirects, preserve titles, metadata, and structured data, and keep product and collection content intact so rankings carry over. We also QA the new store in a staging environment and watch search and analytics after launch to catch any drop early and correct it.

How do you measure whether the store is working?

We instrument the store with clean analytics and conversion tracking from day one, then judge it on revenue outcomes: conversion rate, average order value, checkout completion, and repeat-purchase rate — not vanity traffic. We agree on the metrics that matter before launch and review them with you afterward, using that data to prioritise the next round of conversion and retention improvements.
