E-commerce development

E-commerce websites that are built to convert.

I build online stores on Shopify, WordPress and custom stacks for brands that take conversion seriously. You get one developer who handles the theme, the product pages, the checkout, the payment setup and the analytics, so nothing falls between a designer, a developer and a marketer.

About this service

Selling online works best when the store is fast, easy to use on a phone, and set up so that orders, payments and emails just work. I build complete stores end to end, so you deal with one person from planning to launch and the months after.

There are two packages. The custom-coded store is built from scratch for your business, includes 1 year of hosting, and gives you full control of the features. The Shopify store is set up end to end on the Shopify platform, which is quick to launch and well suited to many brands, but Shopify hosting is not included because the store runs on Shopify's own plan, which you pay to Shopify. Both include 3 months of post-deployment support.

If you are not sure which is right, that is a normal question. We talk through your products, how you sell today and where you want to be in a year, and I will recommend one honestly, including telling you when the cheaper option is the better one.

What's included

  • Shopify theme and app work

    Custom or customised themes, custom apps where the platform falls short, and clean product and collection pages.

  • WordPress and WooCommerce

    Custom themes and plugins for stores that need editorial content alongside products.

  • Checkout and product-page tuning

    Fixes aimed at the places shoppers drop off: product pages, cart and checkout.

  • Payments and analytics

    Payment gateway setup (Stripe, with others on request) and analytics wired up so you can see what is selling.

  • Custom stores

    When a platform is the wrong fit, a custom store on a modern stack with the features your business needs.

  • Hosting and support included

    The custom-coded store package includes 1 year of hosting and 3 months of post-deployment support, with end-to-end guidance from planning to launch. The Shopify package also includes 3 months of post-deployment support, but Shopify hosting is not included: the store runs on Shopify's own plan, paid to Shopify.

  • Payment and email integration

    Online payments and email (order confirmations and notifications) are set up as part of the build.

  • Analytics and Search Console

    Google Analytics and Search Console are connected so you can see visitors and how the store appears in search.

Who it's for

  • Brands launching a first online store or moving off a slow, dated one
  • Retailers and manufacturers who want a catalogue and ordering online
  • Existing Shopify or WordPress stores that need better product pages, checkout or speed

Timeline and price

Typically 1–4 weeks for a Shopify build; custom stores take longer and are scoped after a call.

Frequently asked questions

Is hosting included?

In the custom-coded store package, yes: 1 year of hosting is included. Shopify stores run on Shopify's own plan, so Shopify hosting is not included and is paid to Shopify. Both packages include 3 months of post-deployment support.

Shopify, WordPress or a custom store: which should I choose?

Shopify suits most stores that want to launch quickly with reliable hosting and checkout. WordPress / WooCommerce suits content-heavy sites with a shop attached. A custom store makes sense when you need workflows a platform can't handle. I'll recommend one on the scoping call rather than push a favourite.

Can you improve a store I already have?

Yes. Product page, checkout and speed improvements are common, smaller engagements.

How is the project priced?

Fixed-price proposal after a free 30-minute scoping call, with milestone payments tied to delivery. No hourly billing surprises.

Do the prices include GST?

Yes. All prices on this site are in Indian rupees and include GST.

Who owns the code?

You do. You own 100% of the code and IP once it's handed over.

Can you work with clients outside India?

Yes. I work in IST and overlap 4+ hours daily with EU and US East. I'm happy to sign an NDA before you share anything sensitive.

How do customers pay?

Payment integration is part of the build. The gateway and payment methods are chosen with you during planning so they suit your customers.

Will I get order emails?

Yes. Email integration is part of the custom-coded package, so order confirmations and notifications are set up and tested before launch.

What happens after the 3 months of support?

You can continue with a maintenance plan, either hourly or a 6-hour pack, or contact me only when you need something.

Do you upload my products?

How many products are included and who uploads them is agreed in the written proposal so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to launch?

Typically 1–4 weeks for a Shopify store. Custom-coded stores take longer depending on features and are scheduled in the proposal.
