Ecommerce development

Ecommerce development where inventory, shipping and payments line up from the start

Ecommerce development is less about the store itself and more about making product data, inventory, shipping and payments play together with the systems the business already runs on. I have done that in a large share of my 400+ projects since 2010, on both Shopify and WooCommerce.

Ecommerce development

Shopify or WooCommerce

Shopify for most. It costs a subscription, but you stop worrying about hosting, security and updates, and the checkout is among the best there is.

WooCommerce if content matters more than commerce, if there are very specific rules for pricing and customers, or if there is already a WordPress site the shop should sit naturally on top of.

Typical ecommerce jobs

  • A new webshop from scratch, including payments, shipping and product structure.
  • Moving an existing shop to a new platform with redirects in place.
  • Connecting ERP and inventory so orders and stock sync automatically.
  • Shipping setup with parcel shops, delivery times and per-country rules.
  • Optimising existing shops: speed, search, filters and checkout flow.

After launch

A webshop is not finished at launch; it has started. I set up the measurement so you can see where people drop off, and typically do a review after four to six weeks, when there is enough data to say something.

That is where most of the real improvements get found, not in the workshop beforehand.

What you get

Concrete deliverables, not a report of recommendations someone else has to find time for.

  • A platform chosen on evidence

    Shopify or WooCommerce, chosen for the catalogue and the systems that need to talk, not by habit.

  • Integrations that survive outages

    ERP, inventory and shipping connected with error handling, so an order does not vanish during a brief outage.

  • Measurement from day one

    Conversion tracking set up correctly, so post-launch decisions rest on numbers rather than hunches.

  • A post-launch follow-up

    A review once there is enough data, with concrete suggestions sorted by impact.

The work in practice

How it works

Four steps. You know what happens when, and you can stop after any of them.

  1. 01

    We walk through the job

    A 20-30 minute call where you describe what needs to be built or repaired. I ask about platform, access and deadline, and tell you honestly if the job sits outside what I am good at.

  2. 02

    Review of your code

    Small jobs get a price after a short clarification. If a larger existing project needs a technical review first, we agree the price and scope of that review before I open the code.

  3. 03

    Written quote with a clear scope

    You get a firm agreement on what is included, what is not, and when it will be ready. If the scope changes along the way, we deal with it openly instead of letting it drift.

  4. 04

    Delivery in your own setup

    I work in your own repository and your own hosting and deliver in pieces you can see and approve. When we are done, you have the code, the access and documentation that makes you independent of me.

Frequently asked questions

What does ecommerce development cost?
The three big price drivers are the number of products, the integrations with ERP and shipping, and whether the design starts from scratch. Tell me where you stand on those three points and I will put together a concrete quote, with a reply the same day.
What does an ecommerce developer do?
Builds the store and everything that makes it work as a business: platform, design, payments, shipping, inventory connection and measurement. The goal is a shop where an order runs through without manual work.
Do you develop webshops across the country?
Yes, I have built shops for companies in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense, Aalborg and many smaller towns. The projects run remotely from my base in Herlev, so location means nothing to the collaboration.
Can you move our existing webshop?
Yes. Products, customers and order history can move between most platforms. The critical part is the URL structure and the redirects that protect the organic traffic during the move.
Should we choose Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify for most, WooCommerce when content and special rules weigh heaviest. I recommend based on your catalogue and systems, and advise against choosing by what a vendor happens to be used to.
Do you handle payments and shipping contracts?
I set up the technical side, but the agreements with payment and shipping providers are yours to make. I gladly share what I have seen work well for stores your size.
How long does it take to develop a webshop?
Typically six to ten weeks for a store with a customised theme and a couple of integrations. In my experience product photography and copy are what delay things, so start on them early.
