We provide ecommerce web design in Leeds for businesses that want to sell online, from independent retailers launching their first store to established brands moving to a better platform. We build on whichever platform fits your business best.
The three we use most are:
- Shopify: our Shopify web design in Leeds suits stores that want to launch quickly and manage products easily.
- WooCommerce: our WooCommerce web design in Leeds gives more control over design and features, built on WordPress.
- Magento: suited to large catalogues and complex requirements.
Our online shop design in Leeds always starts with your products and customers, and the platform choice follows from that.

Platform-Neutral Advice
We build on Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento, so we recommend what fits your store, not what we happen to sell.
Built to Convert
Product pages, cart, and checkout are designed to reduce drop-off, because a good-looking store that loses orders has failed.
Migration Handled
Moving from another platform? We handle product, customer, and order data migration so nothing is lost on the way over.
Your Design or Ours
Bring your own design or theme and we will build it, or let us design your store from scratch to suit your brand.
- What We Do
Our Ecommerce Build Process
Here is how our online shop design project runs, from planning through to launch and support:
Store Planning
We map your products, categories, shipping rules, and payment needs, then agree which platform suits your store best.
Design
We design the homepage, category pages, product pages, and checkout, or work from a design or theme you supply.
Build & Product Setup
We build the store, load your products, and connect payments, shipping, and tax settings so the store is ready to trade.
Test Orders
We place test orders across devices and payment methods, checking every step from cart to confirmation email before launch.
Launch & Support
We launch the store, train your team to manage products and orders, and stay on for ongoing support after launch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions we hear most often about building an online store.
Which platform is best, Shopify or WooCommerce?
It depends on your store. Shopify is quicker to launch and easier to manage, which suits many growing stores. WooCommerce runs on WordPress and gives more control over design and features, which suits stores with specific needs. Magento suits large catalogues with complex requirements. We build on all three and will recommend the best fit after a short discovery call.
How much does it cost to create an e-commerce website?
The cost of an e-commerce website in Leeds depends on your product range, chosen platform, design requirements, integrations, and functionality. A simple online shop will cost less than a larger store with custom features and complex integrations. We provide tailored quotes based on what your business needs rather than using a fixed package price.
Can you move my existing store to a new platform?
Yes. We migrate products, categories, customer records, and order history from your current platform, then check everything carefully before the new store goes live. Migrating well protects your existing pages and search rankings, so we also set up redirects from old URLs to new ones. Timelines depend on how much data you have.
Can I use my own design or theme?
Yes. If you already have a design, from your own designer or as a Figma file, we build the store to match it. If you have a theme you have bought, we can set it up and customise it. If you need a design first, we can create one tailored to your products and brand.
How long does an ecommerce build take?
Most stores take between 3 to 6 months from discovery to launch. The timeline depends on the platform, the number of products, and any custom features or integrations. A store with a large catalogue or a migration usually takes longer than a new store with a small range. We give you a realistic timeline once we have scoped your project.
Will I be able to manage the store myself?
Yes. We train your team to add products, update prices, process orders, and manage stock before launch. Shopify and WooCommerce are both built for day-to-day management without code. If you would rather not handle updates yourself, we also offer ongoing support after launch.
