Web, WordPress and Shopify development in Johannesburg

Your website is often the first conversation a customer has with your business. Whether it runs on WordPress, Shopify or a custom build, we make it load instantly, look sharp on every screen and turn visitors into enquiries and sales.

What's included

  • Business websites

    Professional, easy-to-update websites that load fast by default, explain what you do clearly and make it simple to get in touch.

  • WordPress development

    Custom themes, properly built page layouts and WooCommerce stores on WordPress, tuned for speed and security and easy for your team to edit.

  • WordPress plugin development

    Bespoke plugins that add the exact feature you need, from booking and pricing tools to links with your other systems, without bloating your site.

  • Shopify development

    Shopify store setup, custom themes, app integrations and custom Shopify apps for businesses that want to sell online with little upkeep.

  • eCommerce stores

    Online stores with secure checkout, South African payment gateways, inventory and order management, on WooCommerce, Shopify or a custom build.

  • Web applications

    Portals, dashboards and booking systems built on modern, scalable frameworks when a standard website is not enough.

Who this is for

  • Businesses with an outdated site

    Your current site is slow, hard to edit or invisible on Google. We rebuild it without losing the rankings you already have.

  • Retailers going online

    You sell from a shop, Instagram or WhatsApp and want a Shopify or WooCommerce store that takes payment and tracks stock on its own.

  • WordPress sites that need more

    Your WordPress site is slow, out of date or missing a feature. We tidy it up, speed it up and build the plugin it needs.

How a web development project runs

  1. Scope

    We help you choose the right platform, agree pages and features on a fixed quote, and map your existing URLs so nothing you rank for is lost.

  2. Design

    Layouts for mobile and desktop that you can click through and sign off before development begins.

  3. Build

    Development in short sprints on a live preview link, with content, payments and analytics wired in as we go.

  4. Launch

    We deploy, test checkout and forms, submit your sitemap to Google and stay close through the first weeks.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a website cost?

Every project is quoted on scope. A simple business site costs far less than a full eCommerce build. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.

Should I choose WordPress, Shopify or a custom build?

WordPress suits content-led sites that need flexibility. Shopify suits straightforward stores that want low maintenance. A custom build suits complex or high-performance needs. We recommend based on your products, budget and plans for growth, not on what is easiest for us.

Do you build custom WordPress plugins?

Yes. We develop bespoke WordPress plugins for features that off-the-shelf plugins cannot cover, and we keep them compatible as WordPress updates.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. We set up an easy content management system so you can edit text, images and products without touching code.

Which payment gateways do you support?

We integrate popular South African and international gateways such as PayFast, Yoco, Paystack, PayPal and Stripe.

Will a new website hurt my Google rankings?

Not if the move is handled properly. We map every old URL to its new home with redirects and keep your titles, content and structured data intact.
