01

What’s actually broken when ecommerce stops scaling

YOU PROBABLY RECOGNIZE THIS

After 11 years of building stores and operating one ourselves, we see the same four failure patterns. One of these is almost certainly the reason your traffic isn’t turning into revenue at the rate it should.

Traffic up. Conversion stuck under 2%.

You’re spending more on Ads, getting more sessions, and the conversion rate hasn’t moved in 18 months. The product pages, cart and checkout were designed by someone who’s never operated a store — they look fine in screenshots but bleed money at scale. Every percentage point of CR is six figures of revenue you’re leaving on the table.

“Why is the bounce rate climbing as traffic grows?”

Plugin sprawl is breaking checkout monthly.

Forty-three active plugins. WooCommerce extensions stacked on top of each other for shipping rules, gift cards, abandoned cart, reviews, upsells. Every WordPress core update breaks something. Every Black Friday a different plugin is the bottleneck. The site is a Jenga tower.

“Why does this keep breaking right when traffic spikes?”

Headless setup costs $5K a month to maintain.

Last agency convinced you to go headless — Next.js front-end, separate API layer, three different services to coordinate. It was supposed to be faster and more flexible. It is, technically. It also requires a dedicated developer on retainer just to keep the lights on. The Shopify Liquid template you migrated FROM was cheaper to run and ranked better.

“Did we over-engineer this?”

“That doesn’t fit the platform.”

Subscription billing with custom proration. business-to-business portal with per-account pricing. ERP sync with NetSuite. The standard answer was “not supported.” The real answer is “not supported by people who don’t know how to extend the platform.” You stopped asking.

“Are we capped by the platform, or by the agency?”
HOW WE THINK ABOUT ECOMMERCE

Your store is your storefront, your salesperson, and your warehouse manager — all at once.

Most agencies treat ecommerce as ten more pages with a cart on the end. They’ll happily sell you a Shopify theme, a checkout extension, and a quarterly review call. That works for a $200K-a-year side business. It doesn’t work for a real operation.

Our perspective comes from the other side of the table — we actually run an ecommerce business too. Skyler co-runs Security Camera King, a $25M+ a year online business. We’ve handled product catalogs with 10,000+ items, abandoned-cart email sequences with $300+ average orders, returns processing during the Black Friday spike, and connecting our store to two different inventory management systems. The features we build for clients are the features we needed for ourselves.

Three things have to be true for ecommerce to actually keep growing. The product page, cart, and checkout have to be designed against what your visitors actually do (not just what the theme designer thought looked nice). The platform you pick has to match how your business actually runs (not just what we prefer building on). And the site has to keep running for years without breaking every time something gets added — including when traffic doubles for a holiday sale. We design every build against those three things.

  • Platform picked BEFORE the build starts — we’ll honestly recommend WooCommerce, Shopify, or custom based on what fits your business
  • Every page where buyers decide whether to buy (product page, cart, checkout) designed against actual visitor behavior data — not theme defaults
  • Product information (price, stock, reviews) built into the site code so Google shows it directly in search results
  • Loads fast even on category pages with hundreds of products and filters — not just on simple pages
  • Real connection to your other tools — CRM, accounting, subscription billing, business-to-business portal, custom shipping rules — all part of the engagement

What’s included

01

Built by people who actually run an ecommerce business

Skyler co-runs Security Camera King, a $25M+ a year online business. We’ve handled product catalogs with 10,000+ items, abandoned-cart email sequences with $300+ average orders, returns workflow during the Black Friday spike, and connecting our store to two different inventory management systems. The features we build for you are the features we needed for ourselves.

02

We’ll recommend the platform that fits your business

We’ll recommend WooCommerce when you need features the simpler hosted platforms can’t do without expensive apps. Shopify when transaction volume justifies their platform fee and you don’t need deep customization. A fully custom build only when your catalog and business model really warrant it. We’ll tell you honestly on the strategy call which one fits.

03

Product page, cart, and checkout designed to convert

Your product page tested against what visitors actually do, not just what the theme designer thought looked good. Abandoned-cart email sequence connected to your email tool. Checkout reduced to only the fields you actually need. Trust signals at every moment of doubt. The whole buying journey designed as one system, not page by page.

04

Product info shows directly in Google search results

The price, stock status, and star ratings on your products show in Google search results within ~4 weeks of launch — because we build that information into the site code itself. No relying on a plugin (Yoast, Rank Math) that might break or get dropped by its owner.

05

Fast even at catalog scale, fast even on phones

Category pages with hundreds of products and filters that don’t crash your server. Product images compressed and sized correctly for the visitor’s device. Product grids that load as the visitor scrolls (not all at once upfront). Site stays fast even on mobile with 100+ products on a page — tested before launch.

06

Connection to the rest of your business systems

Not just “we’ll set up Stripe.” Real connections to NetSuite, QuickBooks, Sage 50, Cin7 (inventory + accounting). Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Customer.io (email + automation). Recurly, Stripe Billing, Bold Subscriptions (subscription billing). Multi-vendor marketplaces. Custom tax and shipping rules when the standard plugins fall short.

07

business-to-business / wholesale features when you need them

Per-account pricing, hiding catalog from certain customer types, net-30 invoicing, wholesale tax exemption, quote-request workflow, minimum-order enforcement, custom price lists per customer group. WooCommerce with the right extensions, or a custom build — whichever fits how you actually do business.

08

Real owner-level reporting, not the default dashboard

Properly-installed Google Analytics + tag manager + ecommerce event tracking. Email-platform conversion tracking. Server-side tracking signals to compensate for Apple’s iOS privacy changes. Monthly dashboard showing average order value, customer lifetime value, return rate, which channels drive revenue, profit margin. The numbers you actually use to make decisions.

How we deliver it

  1. 01

    Discovery

    90-minute conversation with you and your team, catalog audit (SKU count, complexity, integrations), competitor + reference-store analysis, 16-month Google Search Console pull, current-stack technical audit (plugin sprawl scoring, performance baseline, custom-code inventory). What’s already working we shouldn’t touch?

    Output — Discovery brief + platform-fit recommendation + migration scope
  2. 02

    Platform fit & architecture

    Stack picked and locked (WooCommerce, Shopify, or custom). URL search markup mapped (every product, every category, every legacy URL). Information architecture for the new catalog. Integration scope frozen (email platform, CRM, back-office system, payment, shipping). Wireframes for product, category, cart and checkout pages.

    Output — Platform decision + URL map + IA + wireframes
  3. 03

    Design & user experience

    Product, category, cart and checkout pages designed against the conversion architecture — not theme defaults. Brand system documented (tokens, type, motion). Mobile-first since 65%+ of ecom traffic is mobile. Empty-states + edge-cases covered (out-of-stock, sold-out variant, no-results search, empty cart).

    Output — Hi-fi design system + copy + brand documentation
  4. 04

    Build & integrate

    Custom theme coded against the design system. Product search markup built into the site code. Email platform, CRM and back-office integrations wired and QA’d. Payment + shipping + tax tested against real edge cases. Every product and category page passes the pre-launch SEO checklist.

    Output — Staging build + integration QA log + accessibility audit
  5. 05

    Launch & measure

    Pre-launch gate: redirect map applied, foundation pages, technical SEO, search markup, conversion tools, legal pages, analytics — all verified. Migration cutover scheduled for low-traffic window. Day-7 indexation check, Lighthouse re-baseline, Google Search Console + Google Analytics + ESP + CRM baseline locked. Hand off the keys.

    Output — Live store + post-launch report + ongoing care path

What to expect — investment & engagement

Ecommerce build pricing varies more than any other engagement in our catalog, and we don’t publish a fixed floor because honest quotes require knowing what you actually have and what you’re actually trying to do. A WooCommerce migration from a working Shopify store is fundamentally different work from a custom-built business-to-business portal with NetSuite integration and a subscription billing layer.

Most engagements fall into one of three shapes: a platform migration (Shopify ↔ WooCommerce) with content preserved, a ground-up build with brand identity work and full catalog architecture, or a custom feature layer (subscriptions, business-to-business, ERP, multi-vendor) on an existing store. The strategy call walks the shape that fits your situation and what it would actually cost — no cost, no pitch deck, no obligation to proceed.

Questions people ask us

Shopify or WooCommerce?
Both, depending on what you’re actually building. Shopify when transaction volume justifies the platform fee, you don’t need deep customization, and operational simplicity matters more than feature ceiling. WooCommerce when you need features that require code (custom business-to-business, subscription proration, ERP sync, multi-vendor) or when avoiding per-transaction platform fees materially changes unit economics. We have stores live on both — the strategy call walks the math against your specific situation.
Can you migrate from our current platform?
Yes — most builds are migrations. Shopify ↔ WooCommerce, Magento to either, custom to either. We map every product URL to a new URL (or 301 if being retired), preserve search equity on every page that has it, and ship the new site with a redirect layer that catches old traffic. We did our own migration with 1,520 redirects mapping the legacy URL space.
What about subscription billing, business-to-business, or wholesale features?
All in scope. Recurly, Stripe Billing, Bold Subscriptions, or WooCommerce Subscriptions — we’ve built on each. business-to-business portal with per-account pricing, role-based catalog visibility, net-30 invoicing, MOQ enforcement, quote-request workflow — all standard scope on WooCommerce builds. If you have a specific edge case (you usually do), it gets walked on the strategy call.
Will the site survive Black Friday traffic?
Performance budget enforced at launch — Lighthouse 85+ mobile even on product-grid pages, faceted nav optimized server-side, image responsive srcset + WebP, JavaScript deferred until first interaction. Hosted on Kinsta with edge caching baked in. We load-test before launch on a staging environment scaled to expected peak. We’re not unfamiliar with Black Friday on our own operations.
How do you handle ecommerce SEO specifically?
Product search markup (Product · Offer · AggregateRating · Review) built into the site code — rich search results page results live by week 4. Category-page intent matching (the most-overlooked ecom SEO lever). Faceted-navigation canonicals to avoid duplicate-content penalties on filtered URLs. Internal linking from category to product to cross-sells. Programmatic product description generation for thin catalogs (with editorial review). We run ecom SEO depth on Security Camera King — this is production-tested, not theoretical.
What integrations have you actually built?
ERP — NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Sage 50, Cin7. ESP — Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Customer.io, Omnisend, ActiveCampaign. Payment — Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.Net, Square. Shipping — ShipStation, Shippo, EasyPost, FedEx/UPS native APIs. Tax — Avalara, TaxJar. Reviews — Yotpo, Stamped, Judge.me. CRM — HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, GoHighLevel. If your integration isn’t on the list, ask — we’ve probably touched it.
What if we outgrow your stack?
Then you move. We design every build so the underlying platform is replaceable — content lives in a website platform you own, search markup lives in your theme code, integration code is documented and maintainable. We’ve watched too many small ecommerce businesses get held hostage by “managed” platforms that don’t scale. If WooCommerce stops fitting your operation in year 4, we’ll help you move off it cleanly. Same engineering rigor going out as coming in.

We've been getting "hounded" daily over the years to update our old website and the manner in which we are approached is offputting, is to put it nicely. Not only was the approach of this company, smooth and painless, the result of our new site, OMG is absolutely stunning. The manner in which my requests where handled, were quick, efficient and painless. Even offered ideas I hadn't thought of without me feeling stupid!! I would recommend this company a million times over with no hesitation. Service was over the top and beyond any expectation I could have imagined. Yee Haw!!

Very impressed so far with how fast they work along with outstanding results. As a small business owner, I was nervous to invest in something like this. However, ROI was very fast and quality of our new website and overall customer service has been nothing short of excellent.
