What separates shops that sell from catalogues that don't
Anyone can list products online. Getting people to actually buy them is another matter entirely.
The difference between a successful online shop and an expensive digital brochure comes down to three things: trust (do visitors believe you're legitimate?), clarity (can they easily find and understand what they're buying?), and friction (how many obstacles stand between wanting and buying?).
We build WooCommerce stores that address all three. Not with gimmicks or aggressive sales tactics, but with solid foundations: fast-loading pages, clear product information, straightforward checkout processes, and the subtle details that make visitors feel confident clicking "Buy."
E-commerce is unforgiving. A slow page or confusing checkout doesn't just annoy visitors. They leave, often permanently. We build stores that earn conversions through competence, not tricks.
Who this is for
Our e-commerce development is ideal for:
Established retailers going online
You have a successful physical business and need an online presence that matches your reputation.
Businesses outgrowing marketplaces
Etsy, eBay, or Amazon fees are eating your margins. You need your own platform that you control.
Companies needing custom functionality
Product configurators, B2B pricing, complex shipping rules. The off-the-shelf solutions don't quite fit.
Shops that need to work harder
Your current store isn't converting. You're getting traffic but not sales, and you're not sure why.
Honest note: If you're testing a product idea with a handful of items, Etsy or Shopify might be quicker to start. We build for businesses ready to invest in a proper online presence.
How we approach e-commerce
WooCommerce, customised properly. We build bespoke themes that give you exactly the shopping experience you need, not a generic theme with 50 options you'll never use.
Speed is revenue. Amazon found that every 100ms of load time cost them 1% in sales. We optimise obsessively: fast hosting, efficient code, smart caching.
Checkout friction kills sales. Every unnecessary field, every extra click, every moment of confusion loses you customers. We streamline ruthlessly.
Mobile-first, always. Over half of e-commerce traffic is mobile. We design for phones first, testing on real devices, not just browser simulators.
Payment flexibility. Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna. We integrate the options your customers expect, securely and reliably.

What Clients Say About Our E-commerce
Great service, very friendly and knowledgeable. Mark has the patience to explain to those of us who don't speak tech! Would recommend.
These guys are so helpful! They migrated my website for me in a few minutes and then set about improving the page speed. Best move I’ve made in a long time! And great value too! Thank you 😊
Amazing service. Mark is always happy to help and is easy to contact. Highly recommend!
Very good support. Really Really impressed with the effort you’ve put into this, Mark. You’ve clearly gone the extra mile, and it shows. This web page has been a huge help — can’t imagine managing without it now. Thank you so much, truly appreciate it!appreciated! Thumbs up (y)
Wow! My website colouredglass.co.uk was running very slow with a previous hosting company, I signed up in minutes at 365i.co.uk Not only is my website super fast and loading in less than 3 seconds from 11 seconds, I am saving £23.81 per Month!!! - Keep up the good work Team365i
Absolutely brilliant. Great value hosting and very high quality, but the support you get from Mark is second to none, he will literally bend over backwards to help you, even at silly o'clock on weekends. You just won't get this level of support anywhere else. And he really knows his stuff.
I’ve had a few websites over the years, so I thought I knew what to expect… I didn’t. The new Lockerfella site is way beyond anything I had in mind. The big one for me is performance. I know how important Google PageSpeed is, and this site hits 100 across the board, which I never thought I’d see. Fast, solid, and done properly. 365i is easily the best hosting I’ve used, with a team that really knows their stuff. You’d have to be mad to go anywhere else.
Service beyond fantastic. It's hard to put into words how thorough and in-depth the level of service was, and it ftruly felt as though Mark had a real passion for my business, and was himself thrilled to achieve high speeds! I cannot reccomend enough! Amazing!
Really impressed with the on-boarding attention. I have not had service like this before.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an ecommerce website cost in the UK?
A professional WooCommerce store typically costs £3,000-£15,000+ depending on product catalogue size, custom features, and payment/shipping integrations. We provide detailed quotes based on your specific requirements.
WooCommerce vs Shopify: which is better?
WooCommerce offers more flexibility, no transaction fees, and you own your store. Shopify is simpler to start but charges transaction fees and limits customisation. For serious UK businesses wanting full control, WooCommerce is usually better.
What do I need to start selling online?
You need product images, descriptions, prices, a payment gateway account (Stripe/PayPal), shipping rates, and business terms. We help set up everything technical; you provide the product information and business details.
How do I accept card payments on my website?
We integrate payment gateways like Stripe, PayPal, and others. Customers enter card details securely on your site, payments go directly to your account. Setup typically takes 1-2 days once you have your gateway accounts.
