WooCommerce stores that survive the next plugin update.

Custom WooCommerce stores, checkout and shipping rules, fulfillment integrations, and migrations to or from Shopify. Every update is tested on staging first, and the plugin list stays short on purpose.

Fit and scope

Is a WooCommerce build the right project?

Good fit if

WordPress already runs your content and you want the store in the same admin
You need custom checkout steps, fields, bundles or pricing rules
Your data must stay on servers you choose, with the database in your name
You can fund updates and monitoring every month, or want us to run them

Not a fit if

Nobody will install updates or watch security after launch
You want a hosted platform that patches itself (see Shopify)
You plan to add a new plugin for every request without review
You need a launch in the six weeks before your peak season

Platform fit

WooCommerce or Shopify? Score it, don’t guess.

We build both, so we have no reason to push one. The answer depends on your catalog, your checkout and who runs the store each day.

WooCommerce or Shopify? Score it, don’t guess.
Your situation	WooCommerce	Shopify	Why
Content-heavy site that also sells	Strong fit	Workable	Products, posts and landing pages share one WordPress admin and one editor.
Custom checkout fields, bundles or pricing rules	Strong fit	Plus only	WooCommerce checkout code is yours to change. Shopify limits checkout changes outside Plus.
Data must stay on servers you control	Strong fit	Limited	You choose the host and own the database, order history included.
Memberships, courses or bookings next to the store	Strong fit	With apps	WordPress plugins for these share users and orders with WooCommerce.
Lean team, no developer after launch	Risky	Strong fit	Shopify patches itself. WooCommerce needs updates, backups and monitoring every month.
Traffic spikes during flash sales	With tuned hosting	Strong fit	WooCommerce scales with the right hosting and caching. Shopify absorbs spikes for you.

Scope by area

What a WooCommerce build covers.

Each area is marked included, excluded or optional in the proposal.

Theme

A block theme or a lean custom theme. Shop, product and cart templates your team edits in the site editor.

Catalog

Product types, variations, attributes, filters and category templates set up for how your buyers search.

Checkout and payments

Block checkout, card gateways, wallets and custom fields, tested with sandbox and real orders.

Shipping and tax

Zones, rates, local pickup and sales tax rules tested case by case, with a tax service connected where you need one.

Plugins

A short list, each justified. We record what each plugin does, who maintains it and what it costs in load time.

Integrations

ERP, 3PL, inventory, email and accounting. Tested end to end with sample orders and failure cases.

Hosting and speed

Object caching, image discipline, lean scripts and hosting sized for your order volume. Staging comes with it.

Migration

Products, customers, orders, coupons and URLs moved by script, to or from WooCommerce, and reconciled against the source.

Inspectable artifact

A checkout test matrix, as we deliver it.

A sample matrix with illustrative cases. Yours lists every payment, shipping and tax case in your scope.

[04a] To WooCommerce

Moving to WooCommerce from Shopify, Magento or a custom cart.

Products, variations, customers, orders and reviews are moved by script and matched to the source. Every old URL gets a tested redirect. Saved payment methods, passwords and subscriptions need a plan of their own, and we write it before the move.

Redirect map tested before DNS changes
Customer login and subscription plan in writing

Website migration

[04b] From WooCommerce

Leaving WooCommerce when the upkeep outgrows the gains.

Sometimes the honest answer is Shopify. If updates, hosting and plugin conflicts take more time than the flexibility gives back, we score both options. Then we run the move with the same reconciliation.

Same reconciliation and redirect method

From the founder

Every order, customer and product is matched to the source before DNS changes. A migration is accounting, not guesswork.

Questions

Store owners ask us these first.

Will we lose rankings or orders when we migrate?

Not if the redirect map and reconciliation are done properly. Every legacy URL is mapped, and every order, customer and product is matched to the source before DNS changes. The reconciliation sheet is yours after launch.

How many plugins is too many?

There is no magic number. Each plugin is code you must update, and many add scripts or database queries to every page. We keep the ones that earn their place, record why, and measure what each one costs.

Can you fix our slow checkout?

Usually, yes. We reproduce the problem on staging and trace slow queries, scripts and payment calls. Then we fix the cause instead of adding another cache plugin. If the host is the limit, we show you the numbers and the options.

Do you build with blocks or a page builder?

Blocks. We build on a block theme with the WooCommerce block templates where they fit, and custom blocks where your merchandising needs them. Page builders add weight and tie your content to one plugin.

Who hosts the store?

You do, in an account in your name. We recommend managed WordPress hosting sized for your order volume, with staging and daily backups. We set it up, document it and hand over every login.

How do you handle WooCommerce and plugin updates?

On staging first. We run the update, place test orders and check key pages, then apply it to the live store in a quiet window. Under a care plan this becomes a monthly routine with a backup we have test-restored.

Can WooCommerce handle wholesale or B2B pricing?

Yes, with the right extensions and setup. We scope customer roles, price lists, minimums and payment terms, then test each case with sample orders. If the B2B rules are complex, we compare the cost with Shopify Plus first.

Can you connect our ERP, 3PL or accounting system?

Usually, through a maintained connector or the vendor's API. We scope each integration, test it with sample orders and failure cases, and document what syncs, how often and who gets alerted when it stops.

Can you launch before Black Friday?

Only if we start by August. We don't launch in the six weeks before your peak, and we will tell you that on the first call.

What happens after launch?

Scopes B and C include 14 days of monitoring. WooCommerce needs regular updates after that, so we recommend a monthly care plan. Ongoing SEO and marketing campaigns are run by our sister agency BizAttic.
