Home / Websites for retail
Independent shops, delis, boutiques and online stores. Our websites for retail turn browsers into buyers, whether that means a visit to the shop, a click and collect order or a sale through the checkout at midnight.
Built for footfall, online sales or both.
Stores built for buying on a phone.
Descriptions written to rank on Google.
Add stock and offers without calling us.
Most retailers we speak to have a website that looks fine on a laptop, then loses people somewhere between the product page and the till.
Every extra step at the checkout is a chance for the customer to give up and go elsewhere. On a phone, it happens fast.
A manufacturer’s description and one small photo will not rank, and will not convince anyone either.
For a shop with a door, the most important thing on the site is often when you are open and how to find you.
If adding a new line or changing a price means emailing someone, the site soon falls out of date.
Our free health check looks at speed, mobile checkout and how your products show up on Google.
You get the quick wins in plain English.
Every one of our websites for retail starts from how your customers actually buy, then works back to the pages and features that support it.
Short, clear and quick to complete, with Apple Pay and Google Pay where your platform supports them.
Proper photos, honest descriptions, sizes, delivery and returns, all answered before the customer has to ask.
For shops with a counter, an easy way to order online and pick up in person.
Hours, address, parking and a map, kept up to date and easy to spot on a phone.
Seasonal promotions, new stock and events added in minutes from a simple dashboard.
We recommend the platform that suits your catalogue and how you want to run it, then build on that.
Two recent builds, one for a shop with a counter and one for a business selling online.

See how other independents sell online.
Websites for retail have two jobs on Google: showing up when people nearby search for what you sell, and getting your products seen by buyers further afield.
Our Shopify and WooCommerce work covers new stores, redesigns and moves.
See what is involved.
Clear steps, a fixed price and a shop you can run yourself at the end.
We talk about what you sell, how people buy from you now and what you want the site to do.
We recommend Shopify, WooCommerce or a simple shop front, with a fixed price in writing.
We set up your products, photos and pages, or show you how to add them.
Launch with payments, delivery and your Google listing all tested and working.
Tell us what you sell and how you sell it now.
We will come back within one working day with honest advice and a price.
Websites for retail vary more than most, so online stores are priced on the brief. These are the starting points.
Or from £197 a month. Products, opening hours, offers and directions for a shop with a counter.
WooCommerce and Shopify builds, priced on the number of products, payments, delivery and any migration.
Updates, daily backups, security and monitoring, so the shop keeps trading.

Shop front websites start from £2,397, or from £197 a month. Online shops are quoted on the brief, because the number of products, payment options and delivery setup make a real difference to the work involved.
It depends on your catalogue and how hands on you want to be. Shopify is simpler to run day to day, while WooCommerce gives more control and has no monthly platform fee. We recommend one based on your shop, not our preference.
Yes. We move products, customers and order history where the platforms allow it, and redirect old product pages so you keep the rankings you have built.
Yes. Every shop comes with a simple dashboard and a walkthrough, so adding stock, changing prices and running offers does not need us.
Not always. Many independents do better with a fast shop front website that shows what you stock, when you are open and how to find you, alongside a strong Google Business Profile.
A shop front website is usually live in around ten days. Online shops take a little longer, depending on how many products need setting up.
Tell us what you are planning and we will come back within one working day with honest advice and a guide price. No tech speak, no sales pitch.
Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm. Based at North Tyneside Business Centre, North Shields.
