Catalog and cart
Categories, product pages with photos and descriptions, a cart and a checkout that work well on a phone.
Ecommerce website development
Ecommerce website development services: a catalog, a cart and real online payments. Behind the storefront there’s an admin panel where you run orders, stock and discounts.
Let’s talk from $700
A store is more than a storefront. Orders have to reach you without manual work: on one of my projects, orders from a WooCommerce store land in a central CRM with zero manual entry.
01/Scope
What’s included
Stripe and online payments
Stripe or another online payment provider. The money goes straight to your own account with the provider.
Admin panel for orders
New orders, statuses and customers in one place. No spreadsheets, no forwarding messages.
Inventory and discounts
Stock levels, promo codes and discounts you set up yourself in the admin.

05/FAQ
Common questions
01How long does an online store take?
Most sites take 2-5 weeks. A store with many integrations gets closer to web-app timelines: 4-8 weeks. The exact timeline comes with the quote.
02How much does ecommerce development cost?
From $700 for a store with a catalog, cart, payments and an admin panel. Catalog, payment options and integrations move the total. Try the estimator for a ballpark; I send a fixed quote after the brief.
03Which payment providers can you connect?
Stripe or another online payment provider available in your country. The provider account is opened in your name, so the money goes straight to you.
04What do you need from me?
A product list with prices and photos (a spreadsheet is fine), payment and delivery terms, an account with the payment provider and your logo.
05What happens after launch?
A month of fixes and tweaks after launch is included in the price. After that it’s hourly, or a small monthly retainer if you want ongoing work. You keep the full source code and the docs.
