Web shop development

A custom web shop costs € 3,000 to € 15,000 with us, excluding VAT and the platform subscription itself. What mostly drives the price: the number of integrations, unusual features such as a product configurator, and the amount of product information that has to be processed. After the intake you get a fixed quote.

That depends on your catalogue, your customers and your growth plans. For most stores Shopify is the safest choice: hosting, security and updates are included in the subscription, and the custom work sits in the theme and the integrations. Our platform guides, such as the one on WooCommerce, weigh that honestly.

Because focus produces quality: a team that half knows five platforms knows none of them well. We are an official Shopify Partner and work in it daily, from custom themes to API integrations and our own apps. We do not hide that this makes us partial. Our guides on WooCommerce and Shopware also say where those platforms win.

If you sell a handful of products and your brand is still taking shape, starting yourself is a fine choice: you learn exactly what you will need later. As soon as your revenue depends on the store, you need integrations or you have to stand out, building it yourself gets more expensive than outsourcing. You pay in your own hours and in missed sales.

Products with photos, copy and prices, plus your brand material if you already have it. If that is missing, we arrange photography and copy within the project and it appears as a separate line in the quote. The rest, such as payment methods, shipping rates, returns policy and legal pages, we walk through together with a checklist.

Yes, and the order matters more than it does for an existing store: brand and range first, shop second. Without a sharp story you build a fine window around an unclear offer. In that case we start with branding and strategy and then move on to the store itself.

Yes. We then deliver a complete, selling store with everything you need to trade, and plan the rest as separate blocks: an integration, a configurator, a second language. That is often wiser than deciding everything up front, because after three months of selling you know far better what you actually miss.

You do. The account is in your name, the theme and the custom code are yours after delivery, and you are not tied to us. We consider that obvious, but it is worth asking every party you talk to: a store you cannot take with you is a store you do not own.

More than you need. Shopify runs stores with hundreds of thousands of variants and absorbs Black Friday peaks without you doing anything. In practice the limit is not the platform but your own process: stock, fulfilment and customer service seize up long before the technology does.

Yes, which is why we ask about your growth plans up front. Multiple languages, currencies and markets are managed from one environment, and a business layer with its own prices and payment on account is built on top with B2B functionality. If we know in advance, expanding later costs a fraction of a rebuild.

Usually both at once: a migration brings your products, customers and orders along and keeps your URL structure intact, while the design and the technology are new. Our migration page explains how that works from the seven platforms we see most often.

With a complete redirect map the value you built up is preserved: every old URL points at its new address. Do count on a dip of a few weeks while Google processes the new structure. We keep it as small as possible with a fixed order of checks before, during and after the launch.

A fixed price. After the intake and a short scoping round you get one quote with a fixed amount and a schedule with milestones. If you want to add something that was not in it, we quote that separately and you decide, so the final invoice is never a surprise.

For a well-defined job a good freelancer is fine. A complete web shop asks for design, development, integrations and aftercare, and those are rarely the same pair of hands. Here those disciplines sit in one team, and if someone drops out your project does not stall. Honestly: if you want a small theme with a few tweaks, a freelancer is cheaper.
