Choosing
Which platform should you choose for your store?
Shopify suits you if you want the platform to handle hosting, security, checkout and updates. You can add features through apps, though their subscriptions add ongoing costs. Deeper checkout changes are limited to the Shopify Plus plan. WooCommerce is worth considering if your business already uses WordPress or has a substantial amount of content. You get control over code, data and hosting, but someone needs to manage updates, security and plugin compatibility.
A headless or custom storefront, such as Next.js connected to a commerce back end, gives you more freedom for an unusual catalogue, product configurator or content-led store. That freedom takes more build effort, and later changes often need a developer. We build with Shopify, WooCommerce and headless Next.js. After learning how your products and operations work, we recommend an option that fits the store you need to run.
Local
What Washington businesses need from an online store
Washington has food-processing manufacturers and agricultural businesses. A producer selling to distributors may need customer-specific prices, minimum order quantities and quote requests in its store. Those requirements shape the ordering experience and the information customers see when they sign in.
The state also has aircraft, automotive and software businesses. A brand selling directly to customers may need product reviews, subscription options and email flows as it grows. For a seller currently taking orders through social media or messages, the immediate need could be a catalogue with online payment and order tracking, so customers can place an order without a conversation in chat.
Rules
What a US store needs to handle
State-level sales tax varies across the United States, so the checkout needs tax settings based on where and what you sell. We configure the store’s tax rules using the decisions you have checked for your business, alongside payment and shipping settings.
Commercial emails need a valid physical postal address and a clear way to opt out. We connect your email tool and set up those details in your commercial email flows, with a route for handling opt-out requests.
How it runs
How an ecommerce project runs with us
At MSH Technologies, we work remotely from India over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. IST is 13h30m ahead of Pacific time in winter, and 1 hour less during daylight saving time. The shared board keeps decisions and feedback available across that difference.
- 01
Discover
We learn about your business, customers and goals. You tell us how orders work today, and we agree the store’s scope together.
- 02
Design
We design product, collection and checkout pages for desktop and mobile. You review the screens and give feedback before code is written.
- 03
Prepare products
We import a sample catalogue first. You check titles, variants, prices and images before we use the agreed format for the full catalogue.
- 04
Build and test
We build the store and test it on real devices and browsers. You review the working store as the design becomes an editable site.
- 05
Launch and care
We set up the domain, email, analytics and search. You have ongoing support after the store goes live.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
These materials and decisions give us a clearer view of the store you need.
- A product spreadsheet with names, prices, SKUs, variants, stock and categories.
- Product weights and package sizes for delivery-rate calculations.
- Original product photos, with consistent backgrounds and an image for each colour variant.
- Plain-language shipping, returns, refund, privacy and terms policies.
- Tax decisions checked with your accountant, plus your delivery areas and couriers.
- Domain, store, email and analytics logins held in your business’s name.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and timeline?
The work involved changes with the state of your catalogue and the way your store needs to operate.
Product data
A clean spreadsheet is quicker to import than information scattered across an old store, supplier files and photos.
Migration scope
Moving products alone involves different work from moving customers, order history and other store records.
Markets
Extra currencies, languages, tax displays and shipping options each need decisions and setup.
Made-to-order products
File uploads, previews and price rules add work beyond ordinary product variants.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid before and after launch
Testing only in a sandbox
Place a low-value order with live payment settings, then refund it. Check the currency, order emails and payment connections.
Overloading product pages
Compress images and load review, chat and tracking scripts only where they are needed.
Adding an app for every small feature
Review what each app or plugin does and remove those you no longer use. Extra scripts and plugins can add conflicts and recurring fees.
Leaving sender authentication unset
Set up SPF or DKIM for your email domain so order messages are less likely to land in spam.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Washington
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to build an ecommerce website?
There is no fixed price. The main drivers include the size and complexity of your catalogue, the depth of integrations and any custom checkout or pricing rules. For example, a two-way stock sync needs more work than an order export. We send a free quote once the scope is agreed.
Which payment gateway should I use?
Choose a gateway that supports your business registration, selling currencies and the payment methods your customers need. We support Stripe, PayPal and other gateways according to the country and platform. Compare how each handles refunds, disputes and settlement, as well as its support for cards, wallets and other methods.
Can you move my existing store?
Yes. We can migrate products, customers and order history where the platforms allow it. During a platform change, map each old product and category URL to its closest new page and use a permanent redirect. Include URLs for products you no longer sell, so visitors have a useful destination.
What else is included in the store build?
The work includes order emails and search-ready product pages. Order confirmation, dispatch, refund, abandoned-cart and password-reset messages need your branding, a sender on your own domain and wording that matches your policies. We also build product pages with structured data, making them eligible for rich search results.
Will I own the store after it is built?
You own your domain, content and code, so you are not locked to the team that built the store. An own store also keeps customer data with your business. If you sell through marketplaces as well, stock can be synced between those channels and your store.
What should we do after the store launches?
Keep checking the checkout and measuring how the store performs. Retest the full checkout after an app, plugin or theme change, and give each staff member a separate login with only the permissions they need. Compare checkout drop-off, repeat purchases and product-page speed with your figures from before launch or migration.
