E-commerce Websites FAQs
Whether establishing e-commerce capability or improving underperforming stores, these FAQs address the questions Berkshire businesses ask most frequently about e-commerce strategy and implementation.
Cost depends on complexity, product range size, and features needed. A simple site with 50-100 products on Shopify typically costs £4,000-£8,000. Larger catalogues (200+ products) with custom integrations run £10,000-£20,000+. We charge based on scope, not arbitrary fees. After initial consultation, we provide a fixed quote so you know exactly what you’re investing. Most clients recoup their investment within 3-6 months of increased sales from a properly designed site.
Most projects take 8-12 weeks from kick-off to launch. This includes strategy, design, development, product loading, testing, and training. Larger sites with complex integrations take 12-16 weeks. We keep you involved throughout with regular updates and review points—you’re not waiting in the dark. We can expedite if needed, but rushing typically compromises quality.
We handle both. After launch, we provide ongoing monitoring, maintenance, and optimisation. We track performance metrics and identify improvement opportunities. We can handle product updates, seasonal campaigns, feature additions, or problem-solving as they arise. Many clients keep us on retainer for ongoing support—it ensures your site keeps performing long-term rather than degrading over time.
We can work with your existing photos and copy, or we can source professional photography and write product descriptions for you. Many clients find professional photography and copy makes a significant difference in conversion rates. We coordinate shoots if needed or source imagery if you don’t have photography yet. Product descriptions are written to sell, not just describe—highlighting benefits, addressing objections, and guiding purchase decisions.
First, we analyse what’s happening. Low sales might be due to traffic volume (you need marketing help, not website help), product pricing, poor product fit, or actual site issues. We use analytics to diagnose the problem. If it’s a site issue, we fix it. If it’s a marketing issue, we can help there too or recommend partners who specialise in traffic generation. We’re invested in your success—we don’t just build and disappear.
