What's included
What makes an ecommerce site actually convert
Most ecommerce sites lose customers at three points: on mobile (slow load, cramped layout), on the product page (no social proof, unclear sizing or delivery), and at checkout (too many steps, no trust signals). We design around those three failure points from the start — fast mobile load times, product pages built around buyer questions, and a checkout that minimises friction while showing payment security clearly.
Shopify, WooCommerce or headless — which is right for you
For most London product businesses launching or relaunching a shop, Shopify is the right answer — managed hosting, simple product management and a proven checkout. WooCommerce works well if you're already on WordPress and need tight content integration. Headless (Next.js frontend, Shopify or custom API backend) is the right choice when you need full design control and your catalogue is large. We'll recommend based on your scale, team skills and growth plan.
What an ecommerce build includes and costs
Our online shops start from £1,000, and that figure buys a real, conversion-focused store rather than a stripped-back demo. A typical build includes product and collection page design, a mobile-first checkout, payment gateway and shipping configuration guidance, and abandoned cart and email flow setup. Larger catalogues, custom collection logic or a headless Next.js storefront sit higher up the range. We scope a fixed price before any work starts, so you know exactly what is included. Most shops are ready to launch within two to four weeks, depending on how quickly product data and imagery are supplied.
SEO for product and collection pages
An online shop lives or dies on whether its product and collection pages can be found. We structure each collection around the terms London shoppers actually search, write category copy that gives Google context without burying the products, and ensure clean, descriptive URLs and metadata for every item. Product pages are marked up so search engines can read price, availability and reviews. Because the storefront is fast and mobile-first, it starts with the Core Web Vitals advantage Google rewards. The aim is a shop that earns organic traffic over time, not one that depends entirely on paid ads to make a sale.
“Goggle Studio built our new site in under 3 weeks. Enquiry volume went up noticeably from the first month — the design is exactly right for our clients. Wouldn't go anywhere else.”

Ecommerce Web Design London: What Your Online Shop Actually Needs
Most ecommerce sites in London lose revenue not because they have the wrong products, but because the product pages do not convert, the checkout has friction, or the site is too slow to hold mobile traffic.
Common questions
Frequently asked
Do you build on Shopify or WooCommerce?+
Both. Shopify is our default recommendation for most product businesses because it handles hosting, security and the checkout natively. WooCommerce suits businesses that already use WordPress and want content and commerce in one place. For larger catalogues or fully custom storefronts, we build headless solutions with Next.js.
Can I manage products myself after launch?+
Yes — product management is always handed back to you. Whether you're on Shopify or WooCommerce, you'll be able to add, edit and remove products, update pricing, and manage orders from a simple dashboard without any developer involvement.
Do you set up the payment gateway?+
We provide setup guidance and configure the payment gateway integration — typically Stripe or PayPal for WooCommerce and Shopify Payments for Shopify. Account creation and merchant verification must be completed by you as the business owner, but we walk you through the process.
How many products do I need to launch a shop?+
There's no minimum. We've launched focused shops with as few as three products. What matters is that each product page is done properly — good images, clear copy, real reviews where possible. A small, well-presented catalogue outperforms a large, poorly presented one every time.
Do you help with product photography?+
We provide photography briefs and art direction guidance — what shots to commission, what backgrounds and lighting work for your category, and how to adapt existing product images for web use. We don't do photography ourselves but can refer trusted London-based product photographers.
How long does it take to launch an online shop?+
Most ecommerce sites are ready to launch within two to four weeks of brief approval. The main variable is how quickly you can supply product data, images and pricing. A focused shop with a small catalogue can move faster; a large catalogue or custom headless build takes longer. We confirm a specific timeline in your fixed-price scope before starting.
Do you set up abandoned cart and email flows?+
Yes. We set up abandoned cart recovery and core email flows as part of the build, so the shop is recovering lost sales from launch day. We also offer post-launch conversion improvements and care plans from £150 per month if you want ongoing optimisation, monitoring and content updates after going live.
How long does it take to build?+
Most projects take 2–4 weeks from briefing to launch. More complex builds with custom functionality typically take 4–6 weeks.
Will the site rank on Google?+
Yes. Every site we build ships with technical SEO, semantic HTML structure, Core Web Vitals optimisation, and schema markup. We also offer SEO service pages tailored to your sector.
