Your products are good.
Does your online shop do them justice?

Most South Wales businesses with an online shop fall into the same trap. They launched something quickly on a free platform, or had someone put together a basic site, and now they are wondering why people visit but do not buy. The products are good. The shop is not doing its job.

An ecommerce website that converts is not just a product catalogue. It is a clear journey from landing page to checkout. Product pages that answer the right questions. A checkout that does not give people a reason to abandon. And a site fast enough that people do not leave before they even see what you sell.

I build ecommerce websites for South Wales businesses on Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom builds, depending on what actually suits your business. The right platform for your products, your team, and your budget.

Get started

The right ecommerce platform for your South Wales business

Not every online shop needs the same solution. Here are the three platforms I build on and which one suits your business best.

01

Shopify

Shopify is purpose-built for selling online. It handles payments, stock management, shipping rules, and checkout out of the box. I set it up properly from the start so you are not undoing bad decisions six months down the line. Product pages are built to convert, not just to display. Google Shopping and Meta catalogue feeds are set up as standard.

Right for: South Wales product businesses and online retailers who want a reliable, scalable shop without ongoing technical headaches. The most popular choice for ecommerce web design in South Wales.
02

WooCommerce

WooCommerce runs on WordPress and gives you a fully functional online shop within a familiar content management system. Good for businesses that already use WordPress for their main site, or that want tight control over every aspect of the shopping experience. I build lean, properly structured WooCommerce stores, not template installs stuffed with plugins.

Right for: South Wales businesses already running WordPress who want to add ecommerce without switching platforms, or businesses that need content-heavy product pages alongside their shop.
03

Custom Build

A fully coded ecommerce site built in Next.js, with Sanity CMS for content management and Stripe for payments. No off-the-shelf platform means no platform limits. Your South Wales online shop works exactly the way your business needs it to, with full ownership and no subscription fees to a third-party platform.

Right for: South Wales businesses with unusual product structures, complex pricing rules, or requirements that Shopify and WooCommerce cannot handle cleanly. Also the right choice if long-term ownership and zero platform dependency matter to you.

Every online shop I build for South Wales businesses comes with the following as standard. No add-on charges, no surprises at invoice.

Mobile-first design

More than 70% of online shopping happens on a mobile device. Every South Wales ecommerce site I build is designed for mobile first and tested across screen sizes.

Stock and order management

Inventory tracking, low-stock alerts, and a clear order management dashboard so you always know what has been sold, what needs shipping, and what needs restocking.

Things South Wales businesses usually ask about ecommerce web design

For most South Wales product businesses, Shopify is the strongest starting point. It is reliable, well-supported, and handles everything from payments to shipping out of the box. WooCommerce is a good fit if you already run WordPress. Custom builds are reserved for businesses with requirements that standard platforms cannot meet cleanly. I will give you a straight recommendation on the discovery call.

Monthly plans start from £39/month for a single-page site, rising to £95/month for a full ecommerce build. Upfront projects range from £749 for a starter site to £1,995 for a full-featured online shop. Prices are published on this page. No quote forms, no sales calls just to find out what it costs.

Most ecommerce projects are live within three to five weeks of the initial deposit. Larger catalogues or more complex requirements take longer. I will give you a realistic timeline in the proposal, not a date designed to win the work.

Yes. Shopify and WooCommerce are built to be managed without a developer. Adding products, updating stock, and processing orders are all straightforward once I have walked you through the setup. I do that before handover as standard.

Every site I build has proper SEO foundations in place: product schema markup, page speed optimisation, meta data, and clean URL structure. That gives your South Wales online shop a solid base. Competing for specific ecommerce search terms in Google may also benefit from ongoing SEO work, which I offer separately.

Yes. If you are on Shopify or WooCommerce I can set up the Google Merchant Centre, create a product feed, and connect it to a Google Shopping campaign. This is included in ecommerce builds where relevant, or can be added as a separate service.
