02 / SHOPIFY DEVELOPMENT
A storefront built
around your products.
Sitepilo designs and develops Shopify storefronts for businesses selling products online. We work through the catalog, buying journey and store requirements before deciding which design changes and integrations you need.

- Your catalog, markets and store requirements
Start with how you sell.
A useful store makes it easy to understand the range, compare the relevant details and choose a product. Before designing screens, we review your product categories, variants, photography and the information customers need before purchasing.
We also discuss the operational side: where you sell, how orders are handled and which services the store must connect to. Those decisions affect the storefront and the work needed behind it.
If your website is mainly a publishing or service platform, WordPress development may be worth considering. Workflows that extend beyond a store can be discussed as custom development.
From catalog to storefront.
- Store structure
- Collections, navigation and product information organized around the way customers browse.
- Storefront design
- Responsive home, collection and product page layouts, with the theme work defined in your quote.
- Product presentation
- Images, variants and the product details required to make a purchase decision.
- Apps & connections
- Requirements reviewed against available services, their limits and their ongoing costs.
- Launch checks & handover
- Review of the agreed storefront, purchase paths and store-management tasks before launch.
Separate the build from running costs.
Bring your product list, variants, brand assets and product photography, plus your target markets and launch priorities. If you already have a store, tell us what should stay and where customers or staff are getting stuck.
Development fees are different from your Shopify subscription, paid themes, app subscriptions and payment-provider charges. We identify the services involved so you can evaluate the ongoing setup alongside the initial build.
Payment options depend on your business location, eligibility and providers. We review the intended setup rather than assuming every payment method is available. Check the current Shopify Payments country requirements when planning your store.
What to decide before launch.
Can you customize an existing Shopify store?
We can discuss changes to your current storefront. We first review the theme, installed apps, product structure and the parts of the buying journey you want to improve.
Do I need a paid theme or several apps?
That depends on your requirements. We review the available approach and identify paid dependencies in the scope, rather than assuming a large app stack is necessary.
Can you move an existing catalog?
Migration needs its own scope: products, variants, images, collections, redirects and any customer or order data must be reviewed. We agree on what is moving, how it will be checked and who prepares the source data.
Can I manage products after handover?
We agree on the store areas and routine tasks you need to manage and cover them at handover. Ongoing design changes and development support are separate arrangements.
