An existing theme is a practical starting point when its layouts suit your products and the way customers buy. Customising it keeps setup lighter and makes later theme updates simpler. A custom theme gives you more room for unusual products and a distinct brand, though later layout changes need development work. Think about who will make those changes after launch as well as what the first version needs to show.

A headless storefront using Hydrogen or Next.js is an option for a content-led brand or an unusual buying flow. It gives you a different route to building the customer-facing store, but you give up the theme editor. Apps that add features through a theme may also stop working in that setup, so your planned integrations need checking before you choose it. You speak directly to the people designing and building your store, so we can discuss those trade-offs with you before settling on an approach.

Indian GST treatment differs for intra-state and inter-state supplies, so the store’s tax settings need to reflect the markets and supplies you configure. We set up those tax settings as part of the store build.

Indian e-commerce rules also require prominent business and customer-care information. We set up space on the store for your legal name, principal geographic address, website details and contact details for customer care and your grievance officer. Have those details ready so the published information describes your business.

These details help us discuss the store and its scope.

• A Shopify account and plan in your business’s name and billing.
• A product sheet with titles, descriptions, prices, SKUs, barcodes, weights, options and stock by location.
• Consistent photos for each colour or style, plus size charts, care instructions and specifications.
• Business and bank details for your chosen payment gateway, along with shipping, returns, privacy and terms policies. Review generated templates before use.
• A list of current and planned tools, such as reviews, accounting and couriers, with what each must do.

  Skipping redirects

  Map old URLs to their new destinations and import the map at launch. Redirects work only from URLs that no longer load a page.

• !

  Adding an app for every small need

  Check what each app adds and review theme files when removing it; some apps leave code behind.

• !

  Using inconsistent catalogue fields

  Keep tags, product types and vendors consistent so automated collections and filters put products in the right place.

• !

  Leaving defaults in place

  Replace demo content, placeholder policies and default notification wording before launch.
