Architect

We design the stack, content model, redirect map, and tracking plan before writing a single line of front-end code.

03

Build

Agile sprints with weekly demos. SEO, performance, and accessibility are reviewed inside every pull request.

Launch & monitor

Pre/post-launch crawl comparison, Core Web Vitals monitoring, and an optional retainer for ongoing iterations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a headless build involve?

A modern decoupled architecture where the front-end (Next.js or Hydrogen) is separated from the back-end commerce or content layer (Shopify, WooCommerce, headless CMS). The result is faster pages, full creative control over the UX, easier experimentation, and a back-office your editors already know.

Do you build on Shopify or WordPress?

Both. Shopify Headless uses Shopify as the commerce engine with a Next.js or Hydrogen front-end and a headless CMS for content. WordPress Headless keeps wp-admin for editors and serves a Next.js front-end via the REST API or WPGraphQL. We recommend the right stack during the discovery audit.

How long does a headless build take?

A typical Shopify Headless build runs 8 to 14 weeks from discovery to launch. WordPress Headless runs 8 to 12 weeks. Heavily customized installations or complex integrations can extend the timeline. Every engagement starts with a paid audit so the timeline is precise, not estimated.

How much does a headless build cost?

Pricing depends on catalog size, integrations, and scope. Most Shopify Headless builds range from $25K to $80K+. Most WordPress Headless migrations range from $20K to $60K+. We always scope after a paid audit so you receive a transparent, line-item proposal before committing.

Will my SEO survive the migration?

Yes. SEO preservation is part of every build: URL redirect mapping, structured data, hreflang, sitemap regeneration, and pre/post-launch crawl comparisons. The performance gains from headless typically improve rankings within weeks of launch.

Can my team manage the site after launch?

Yes. Editors keep their familiar back-office (wp-admin or Shopify admin) and your marketing team gets a headless CMS for landing pages and blocks. We provide full documentation, training, and an optional retainer for ongoing front-end iterations.
