Online shops
An online shop people actually buy from.
Anyone can put products on a page. The difference between a shop that sells and one that does not is everything between someone landing on it and their card details going in.

The work
A shop you can buy from right now.
Selling online isn’t usually a design problem. It’s a drop-off problem. People arrive, look at one product, and then something asks them to make a decision they aren’t ready for — an account before they can buy, a delivery cost that only appears at the last step, a photograph that doesn’t show the thing they’re trying to picture at home.
Every one of those is a place the sale quietly ends.
So a shop I build is designed backwards from the checkout: what does someone need to know before they’ll add this to a basket, and where does the current version make them stop? You see a sample of your shop before you pay anything — send the brief and it’s with you in 48 hours.
What you get
What’s included
- Product pages that answer the questions that stop people buying
- A checkout that does not force anyone to create an account first
- Card payments taken securely, with the fees going to you and not through me
- Delivery costs shown early, not sprung at the final step
- Your product photographs prepared and compressed so the shop stays fast
- Stock, prices and new products editable by you, without ringing me
- Search engines given a proper product feed — names, prices and availability they can read
- Order confirmations that reach the customer and reach you
How it works
Four steps, and one of them is yours.
You answer a few questions
What you sell, roughly how many products, and how you handle delivery. Five minutes on a phone.
I design a sample shop
Within 48 hours: a real product page and a real listing page, built with your actual products on them.
We get the details right
Delivery bands, variants, sizes, returns — the unglamorous things that decide whether the shop works.
It goes live and takes money
Payments connected to your account, a test order run end to end before anyone real sees it.
Taking payments
Card payments go through an established provider straight into your own account. I don’t sit between you and your money, I don’t take a percentage of your sales, and card details never touch your website — that last part isn’t a preference, it’s what keeps the security burden off you entirely.
Delivery and returns
This is where most small shops lose orders. A delivery charge that only appears at the final screen reads as a trick even when it isn’t, so the cost is shown while someone is still browsing. Returns are stated plainly on the product page rather than buried in a policy nobody opens — a clear returns line removes the exact hesitation that stops a first-time buyer.
Running it yourself
You add products, change prices and mark things out of stock yourself, from a phone if you want to. I’ll show you how in one sitting and write it down. What I won’t do is build a shop you have to pay me to operate, because a business that can’t change its own prices isn’t really running its own shop.
FAQ
Questions people ask before they get in touch
How much does an online shop cost to build?
It is quoted per job, because the number of products and how you handle delivery change the work considerably. You see a sample design of your shop first, at no cost, so you are looking at something real before there is a price to discuss.
Do you take a percentage of my sales?
No. Card payments go through an established payment provider straight into your own account, and their transaction fee is between you and them. I take nothing per sale, ever.
How many products can I sell?
Anything from a handful to a few hundred stays comfortable to run. Beyond that the real question becomes how you manage stock rather than how the shop is built, and I will tell you honestly if you have outgrown what I should be building for you.
Can I add products and change prices myself?
Yes, from a phone if you want to. I will show you how in one sitting and leave you written instructions. A shop you have to pay someone else to update is not really yours to run.
Is it secure to take card payments?
Card details never touch your website — they go directly to the payment provider, which is what keeps the security obligations off you. The site itself runs over an encrypted connection as standard.
Can customers buy without creating an account?
Yes, and they should be able to. Forcing an account before a first purchase is one of the most reliable ways to lose a sale from someone who has never bought from you before.
Will my products show up in Google?
Product names, prices and stock status are published in a form search engines read directly, which is what makes a listing eligible to show a price rather than just a link. Markup makes a result eligible, never guaranteed, and it takes a re-crawl before anything changes.
