Build Your Online Shop - WooCommerce and Shopify

mindmelt is a B2B e-commerce agency for mid-market retailers. WooCommerce and Shopify development, shop design, and ongoing marketing - one team, brief to launch.

Your new webshop. Done properly.

Many shops go live and still don't sell. Rarely the product's fault. More often it's categories customers can't navigate, product pages Google ignores, and a checkout that asks for three steps too many on mobile. mindmelt analyses all of this before the first design draft - not after.


Design, UX and SEO. One team.

A webshop isn't a shop window - it's a salesperson. It needs to bring visitors in, guide them to the right category, make product decisions easier, and not get in the way of checkout. mindmelt builds shop design and user journeys alongside the SEO architecture - so product pages get found and visitors don't leave because the shop lost them.

Case Study: RMV Fan Shop - WooCommerce Store for Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund

The RMV (Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund) wanted to sell branded merchandise online - everything from socks featuring RMV pictograms to drinks bottles and caps. mindmelt built the fan shop on WooCommerce: product photography, category structure, basket and checkout. The shop design follows RMV's brand identity in petrol and orange.

WooCommerce or Shopify - straight advice, no spin

WooCommerce runs on WordPress and suits shops that need real flexibility: custom product configurators, B2B pricing, or complex shipping rules. Shopify is the better fit when you need to go live fast and want hosting, updates and security handled for you. mindmelt looks at your product range, technical requirements and budget - then builds the shop too.

Build Your Webshop Right: Structure Before Style

A shop that sells starts with the right product structure. How are your categories set up? Which filters do your customers actually need? Where are buyers dropping off at checkout? mindmelt works through these questions before the first design concept - then builds an online shop that fits your range and your audience.

WooCommerce projects run on a clean WordPress setup: hosting recommendations, SSL, GDPR-compliant cookie solution, automated backups. For Shopify, we handle theme customisation and app configuration. Either way, you get a shop that's ready to go - one you can fill and manage yourself.

Case Study: Stadler Klebetechnik - B2B Online Shop for Industrial Products

The shop is built for trade and industrial buyers.

After Launch: Shop Marketing and SEO

A shop without visitors sells nothing. After launch, mindmelt takes care of ongoing performance: optimising product pages for Google, writing category copy, setting up Google Shopping, and running social media campaigns for your products. We track which products people search for and which pages convert - then adjust your shop accordingly.

Mehr über uns

Migrating from WooCommerce to Shopify means a new URL structure, redirects for every old URL without exception, rebuilding all custom integrations from scratch - and a window where Google rankings can drop sharply if a single redirect is wrong. Migration projects typically cost 50 to 200 per cent of the original build. Shops that chose a platform based on agency preference rather than their own business model tend to discover the problem two to three years after launch. The platform decision locks you in for five to seven years. That justifies a thorough analysis before you start - not after.

The most expensive launch mistake is going live without a working analytics setup on day one. A shop that launches without event tracking for 'Add to Cart', checkout steps and purchase can't diagnose poor conversion in those first weeks. Those weeks matter most - fresh traffic, unbiased user behaviour, real buying decisions happening for the first time. No data means no basis for any optimisation that follows. Retrofitting event tracking is technically possible. The lost data isn't coming back. Any launch checklist without working analytics is incomplete.

Product page SEO is where most online shops fall short. Manufacturer descriptions get copied word-for-word across thousands of competing sites - Google treats that as duplicate content and penalises every site that adds nothing original. Writing unique product descriptions for a 5,000-SKU catalogue is a two-year content project with significant editorial overhead that most shops never budget for. Category pages need editorial text that answers the actual search intent behind a category query - a product grid with no supporting copy is, in Google's eyes, empty. This isn't a one-off task. It's an ongoing editorial commitment.

Basket abandonment is always shop-specific. A fashion retailer loses buyers at the size selector. A B2B shop loses them when delivery times aren't visible. An electronics store loses them without a finance option. What works for one shop type won't work for another. Exit-intent tracking shows exactly where buyers drop off in the purchase journey - that's the only sensible starting point for optimisation. Without that data, you're optimising in the wrong place. The analysis gets skipped in favour of implementation more often than not - and the result is investment that moves nothing.
