E-commerce development
Establish an effective new E-commerce website;
Upgrade an existing online store to a more robust ecommerce system (BigCommerce);
Add E-commerce to a Wordpress site. Both WooCommerce and BigCommerce hook onto existing Wordpress sites, but BigCommerce is better suited if you have over 800 products or ecommerce is a core part of your offering.
Even if your current site is not Wordpress, we can add ecommerce by adding a store on a subdomain e.g. store.yourwebsite.co.nz.

What is the difference between web-design & web development?
Many people use the terms web design and development interchangeably. “Web design” commonly refers to both design (planning, graphic design, user experience, graphics – often called “front end development”) and development (programming, and testing – often called “Back end development”).
On this page, I’m referencing web development as a more technical term relating to technical capability. If you’re not technically-minded and are actually interested in our web design services, please head there.

1. Website
efficiencies
Make your business processes more efficient by adding new technology and functionality. Looking to add e-commerce, robust case studies, or integrate with Xero?
Investing in these tools often makes more sense on updated technology. Adding a bolt-on tool to an outdated website is often less effective and costs more than creating a new website with the functionality built in.
Likewise, new Content Management Systems are easier for website administrators to update with content and tools.
We can assess if it will be faster and cost less on a new platform, or if your current one will last the distance.
