Choosing
Which Shopify setup should you choose?
Start with the features your store needs. Apps add features quickly, but each can bring a recurring fee, extra scripts and dependence on its maker. Custom code or a custom app fits a specific requirement more closely, with maintenance needed as Shopify changes. We help you compare those trade-offs against your store’s goals and agree the scope with you.
For selling internationally, Shopify markets let you use local-currency prices, translations and international domains from a single store. Separate stores are worth considering when you need different catalogues or teams for each country, or payouts in different currencies. For payments, compare the total cost per order across gateways: a third-party gateway carries an extra Shopify transaction fee.
A headless storefront using Hydrogen or Next.js suits a content-led brand or an unusual buying flow. It gives you a different way to build the storefront, but you give up the theme editor, and apps that add features through the theme might not work with it. Check those trade-offs before choosing this route.
Local
What Chennai organisations need from a store
Chennai has healthcare, hardware and software businesses. A healthcare or hardware business selling products online might need a custom mobile theme that presents its brand clearly; a growing direct-to-consumer brand might also need reviews and subscriptions connected to its store data. We design the theme and test those connections.
The city is also an educational hub. An educational organisation selling products to customers in several countries might need local-currency prices, translated content and shipping for each market, managed from one admin. An organisation moving an existing store needs its products, customers and orders brought across, with redirects in place for the move.
Rules
What an Indian store needs to handle
Indian e-commerce entities must prominently display their legal name, principal geographic address, website details and customer-care and grievance-officer contact details. We set up space on the store for that information, so your customers can find the details you provide.
GST differs for intra-state and inter-state supplies. We configure the store’s taxes for the market you sell in, using the applicable tax treatment for your products and where you supply them.
How it runs
How a Shopify project runs with us
We work remotely from India using video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. You can discuss the work directly with the people designing and building your store.
- 01
Discover and build
We learn about your business, audience and goals, then agree the scope with you. We build the store and test it on real devices and browsers.
- 02
Design
We prepare desktop and mobile page designs. You review them and give feedback before we write theme code.
- 03
Access
The store stays in your account. You approve our collaborator account, choose its permissions and can remove them later.
- 04
Launch
We connect the domain, remove the password, switch payments to live and import redirects. We also place a real test order and refund it.
- 05
Handover
Your team learns to manage orders, products and discounts before the store is handed over.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
Bring what you have, along with the decisions your store still needs.
- A Shopify account and plan in your business’s name and billing, so the store, data and subscriptions belong to you.
- A product sheet with titles, descriptions, prices, SKUs, barcodes, weights, options and stock by location. Weights affect calculated shipping rates.
- Business and bank details for your payment gateway, plus your shipping, returns, privacy and terms policies. Review any generated templates before use.
- A list of current and planned apps and tools, with what each needs to do.
- For a migration, exports of products, customers and orders, plus the URLs bringing the most traffic and sales.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and work involved
The scope of the store determines how much design, setup and testing work is needed.
Theme route
Adjusting an existing theme is smaller work than designing and building a custom theme around your brand.
Catalogue structure
Extra product options, specifications, bundles and made-to-order choices add setup and theme work.
Integrations and markets
ERP, accounting, warehouse or marketplace connections add work, especially with two-way stock and price sync. Extra markets bring their own prices, translations and shipping rates.
Migration
Moving products, customers and orders from WooCommerce, Magento or another platform also involves putting redirects in place.
Avoid
Mistakes to avoid with your Shopify store
Skipping redirects
Map old URLs to their new destinations and import the map at launch. Shopify uses fixed product and collection paths, and redirects only work from URLs that no longer load a page.
Adding an app for every small task
Check the subscription and scripts each app adds. When removing one, check the theme files for code it left behind.
Changing the live theme directly
Duplicate it, make and preview changes in the copy, then publish it.
Leaving demo content in place
Check placeholder policies and default notification wording before launch.
Questions
Asked by businesses in Chennai
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to hire a Shopify developer?
There is no fixed price for every store. A custom theme, the apps and integrations you need, and the depth of a migration all affect the work. For example, moving reviews and gift cards alongside products requires more migration work than moving products alone.
Can I hire someone to build a Shopify store for my business?
Yes. We build stores for first-time online sellers and train your team to handle orders, products and discounts. Shopify handles hosting, security and software updates, so your staff can focus on running the store without taking on those tasks themselves.
How much can you change in Shopify checkout?
Shopify runs the checkout itself. Standard checkout customisation is available from the Basic plan up, while apps that change the information, shipping and payment steps are limited to Shopify Plus. Decide what you need to change in those steps before choosing your plan.
Can product pages show information such as size charts?
Yes. Metafields hold structured details such as dimensions, care instructions and size charts, which the theme can display in their own sections. Shopify Functions address a different need: they change back-end logic, such as discount types or rules that block checkout for an order.
Who owns the store after it is built?
You own your domain, content and code. That means your store is not locked to the team that built it, and those assets remain yours after handover. Keep ownership in mind when deciding who should control the account and its access.
What support is available after launch?
The same people who designed and built your store provide ongoing support. You can also review apps and access regularly, removing anything no longer used. Shopify reports show measures such as cart abandonment and returning customers; Search Console shows organic clicks and product-page indexing.
