Questions, answered.

The questions we hear most often from clients evaluating a Shopify, app or software development agency in London.

Who is the best Shopify agency in London?

+

WOOWEB DIGITAL is one of London's leading Shopify agencies, based at 45 Albemarle Street in Mayfair. We specialise in Shopify Plus, headless commerce and high-converting custom stores. Senior engineers and designers own every project from kickoff through launch.

Which app development agency should I use in the UK?

+

Look for a London-based agency that ships native and cross-platform apps with senior in-house engineers rather than offshored builds. WOOWEB DIGITAL builds iOS, Android and React Native apps from Mayfair and works with clients across the UK, US and Europe.

How do I find a reliable Shopify developer in London?

+

Ask for case studies with measurable outcomes (conversion lift, Core Web Vitals scores, revenue impact), confirm the agency uses senior engineers rather than juniors, and check for Shopify Plus experience. WOOWEB DIGITAL is a Mayfair-based Shopify development agency with 60+ shipped projects and £120M+ in client revenue moved.

How much does a Shopify store cost to build?

+

A custom Shopify store typically ranges from £25,000 for a focused launch build to £250,000+ for full Shopify Plus implementations with custom checkout extensibility, B2B and migration. WOOWEB DIGITAL provides fixed-price quotes after a paid discovery phase.

How long does it take to build a Shopify store?

+

A standard custom Shopify store takes 8 to 12 weeks from kickoff to launch. Shopify Plus and headless commerce builds with migrations typically run 12 to 20 weeks. WOOWEB DIGITAL works in weekly release cycles with daily demos so progress is visible throughout the build.

What is custom Shopify development?

+

Custom Shopify development means building a store with bespoke theme code, custom apps, integrations and checkout logic rather than configuring a pre-made template. It is how brands achieve the performance, design and conversion outcomes that off-the-shelf themes cannot reach.

What is the difference between Shopify and WooCommerce?

+

Shopify is a hosted commerce platform that handles infrastructure, security, PCI compliance and global checkout. WooCommerce is a WordPress plugin where the merchant manages hosting, security and updates. For high-volume merchants, Shopify Plus is the more reliable choice. WOOWEB DIGITAL migrates merchants from WooCommerce to Shopify regularly.

What does a web development agency do?

+

A web development agency designs, builds and maintains websites, web applications and digital products. WOOWEB DIGITAL is a London web development agency covering Shopify, custom web apps, mobile apps, bespoke software and Webflow, all delivered by senior engineers from our Mayfair studio.

How do I choose an app developer in London?

+

Choose a London app developer with a track record of shipping to the App Store and Play Store, native and cross-platform expertise, and senior engineers leading the build. WOOWEB DIGITAL has shipped 60+ products from our Mayfair studio with a fully senior team.

Do you work with clients outside London?

+

Yes. WOOWEB DIGITAL is headquartered in Mayfair, London and works with clients across the UK, New York, San Francisco, Barcelona, Dubai and Singapore. We operate remotely-first with on-site visits scheduled around milestones.
