FAQ
What people ask about WooCommerce development
How much does a custom WooCommerce store cost?
It depends on scope: catalog size, integrations, custom plugins and whether you are migrating from another platform. After a 30-minute discovery call, you get a proposal with a detailed estimate, at no cost, in under 24 hours.
WooCommerce or Shopify: which is right for me?
WooCommerce is open source, charges no platform fee per transaction (your payment processor still charges its own fee) and allows very broad customization; you handle hosting and maintenance. Shopify launches faster, with managed hosting and security, in exchange for a subscription plus any fees and apps that apply. If you need custom business logic, deep integrations or full control of the code, WooCommerce is usually the better fit; if you prioritize speed and low maintenance, choose Shopify.
Can you migrate my store to WooCommerce without losing SEO?
Yes. We migrate products, customers, order history, images and URLs, with 301 redirect mapping and post-migration verification, so you do not lose traffic or data.
Do you build custom plugins and integrate with my ERP or CRM?
Yes. We build WooCommerce plugins tailored to your business and connect the store to systems like SAP, Odoo, Salesforce or HubSpot, or to any external API, via REST or webhooks.
How do you handle payments, taxes and shipping in the U.S.?
We integrate the payment gateways you choose and set up tax calculation and shipping rates with the right plugins or services for the states where you sell and the carriers you use. We define the scope with you; we do not provide tax advice.
How long does it take to build a WooCommerce store?
A standard store takes 4 to 8 weeks. Projects with custom plugins, ERP integrations or migrations can take 2 to 4 months. The exact timeline goes in the proposal, after we review your catalog and technical requirements.
What hosting do I need for WooCommerce?
For small stores, managed WordPress hosting works well. For high volume, we recommend a dedicated server or VPS with object caching (Redis), Nginx and a CDN. We can advise you and set up the whole infrastructure.
How do you use AI in development, and who reviews the result?
Our engineers use AI assistants to speed up repetitive tasks such as code drafts, tests and documentation, and a senior engineer reviews everything that goes into your store. AI speeds things up; review and design decisions stay with a person.
Can you add AI recommendations or search to my WooCommerce store?
Yes. We build shopping assistants, smart search and recommendations connected to your catalog and inventory, in English and Spanish, as part of our AI for e-commerce solutions.
What support do you offer after launch?
Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support at no cost. After that, we offer monthly maintenance plans: WordPress and WooCommerce updates, monitoring, daily backups and incident resolution under a defined service-level agreement.
