BUILT AROUND THE BUSINESS
The right ecommerce platform depends on how you sell—not the loudest vendor pitch.
Platform choice, storefront experience, catalogue structure, checkout requirements, integrations, and migration risk should be evaluated together before build begins.
Honest platform fit
Recommend platforms based on catalogue complexity, team capability, integrations, and growth plans—not generic preference.
Conversion-focused UX
Design product discovery, merchandising, and checkout paths around how customers actually buy.
Connected operations
Plan inventory, payment, shipping, CRM, and back-office connections from the start.
Maintainable delivery
Structure themes, content, environments, and documentation for long-term ownership.

PLATFORM DECISIONS
Different platforms suit different commerce needs.
| Approach | Best suited for | Key strength | Important consideration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shopify or BigCommerce | Brands wanting a managed commerce platform with strong out-of-the-box storefront and app ecosystems. | Structured commerce features, maintained platform, and established integration options. | Customisation depth and ongoing platform costs should be assessed against requirements. |
| WooCommerce on WordPress | Organisations already on WordPress or needing content-rich commerce with flexible plugin options. | Content and commerce in one CMS with broad extension availability. | Hosting, plugin maintenance, and performance require active ownership. |
| Wix, Weebly, or Shift4Shop | Small businesses needing a faster path to a design-led or budget-conscious online store. | Lower initial complexity for straightforward catalogues and checkout. | Advanced customisation, integrations, and scale may eventually require replatforming. |
| Webflow Ecommerce | Design-led marketing sites with modest product catalogues and strong visual control. | Visual design flexibility with built-in ecommerce for simpler use cases. | Complex catalogue, checkout, or integration needs may fit another platform better. |
