Web Design & Development
WooCommerce developer for UK shops
A WooCommerce developer UK shops can hire builds custom features, fixes checkout problems and speeds up slow stores.
The short answer
What you get
What is included in our WooCommerce development
Development work only. WordPress design sits with a group company, covered below.
Custom builds
New product types, pricing rules and order features that standard extensions do not cover.
Integrations
Links to stock, accounts, shipping, CRM and marketing tools.
Checkout and payments
Changes to checkout steps and payment options, tested with real orders.
Speed fixes
Finding what slows your store down and removing it.
Extension review
We check the extensions you use and replace those that are heavy or unmaintained.
Fixes
Repairs for broken features after updates, moves or earlier changes by others.
How it works
WooCommerce development agency UK: how a project runs
From review to a tested launch.
Scope
We agree what must change and which parts of the store are off limits.
Review
We look at your theme, extensions and orders flow to find what the change will touch.
Build
We build on a staging copy so shoppers see no disruption.
Test
We place test orders on desktop and mobile and review the results with you.
Launch
We move the change live at a quiet time for your shop.
Checkout
Checkout, payments and integrations
Checkout is where a store makes or loses a sale. We look at the number of steps, the payment options and the error messages shoppers see.
Integrations pass orders, stock and customer details between your shop and the tools you already use. We test each one with real orders before launch.
Speed
Speed and reliability for busy shops
A slow shop loses shoppers and a shop that fails under load loses orders. Common causes are heavy extensions, large images, slow hosting and database clutter.
We find the cause on your store before we change anything. For ongoing updates and backups, see website maintenance.
Where slowness often comes from
- Too many or heavy extensions
- Large unoptimised images
- Slow hosting
- Cluttered database
Platform choice
WooCommerce or Shopify?
WooCommerce gives you full control of the code and runs on WordPress. Shopify is simpler to run because the platform handles hosting and updates.
The right choice depends on how custom your shop is and who will look after it. If you are weighing a move, read our WooCommerce to Shopify migration guide or see Shopify development.
Design
Design work for WordPress shops
We handle development. For the design of a WooCommerce and WordPress site, see WooCommerce and WordPress design from WordPress Website Design Agency, a Zemash group company.
Cost
What affects the cost of WooCommerce development?
Cost depends on the size of the change, the number of systems it connects to and how much testing it needs. A single fix takes less work than a custom checkout with several integrations.
Pricing depends on scope. Book a 15 minute call or email contact@zemash.com.
Hosting and paid extensions are separate costs.
What affects the cost
- Size and scope of the change
- Systems it connects to
- Quality of existing code
- Testing and review needed
