Start Selling Products and Services Online

Ecommerce does not have to be hard. We build fast, secure, and fully custom websites that make it simple for you to sell products or services online. Every site is written by hand for performance, SEO, and long-term reliability, without bulky builders or slow plugins.

We match the setup to how your business works.

  • Monthly plans with Foxycart include hosting, maintenance, and ongoing support.
  • One-time Shopify builds give you a custom storefront with a single upfront payment and ownership of your store.

Both options focus on performance, ease of use, and clear product pages designed to convert.

But First, What Exactly Is Ecommerce?

Ecommerce is just the process of selling online. So really, any sale that happens online at any marketplace can be considered ecommerce. For us though, it means you want to sell online through your website safely, securely, and easily. This can mean a single product page, a small catalog, or a full featured store for physical and digital goods and services. The core goal is the same: to make it easy for people to buy from you.

Solid Marketing Matters

Marketing is the biggest deciding factor when it comes to success in ecommerce, because without marketing there is no way to build an audience. Marketing, however, is expensive and extremely competitive. Unless you are the first of your kind, there are already large companies spending tens of thousands or more each month just to stay visible. That is what you are competing with. But that does not mean you should give up. It just means you have to be smarter with your strategy and make sure your website gives you a real advantage.

That is where we come in. We focus on giving you a competitive edge through a faster, more optimized website than what most businesses have. Your store should not only look good but also work with search algorithms and indexing bots to increase visibility across the web. We design every ecommerce site to perform well for both people and search engines, so your efforts in marketing and SEO actually deliver results. Much of this foundation is built through our SEO services, which help ensure that your products are found and indexed correctly.

Good marketing also means knowing what to highlight and how to present it. That includes well-structured product pages, clean URLs, and clear content that both search engines and real people can understand. The technical side matters just as much as the presentation. When your website supports your marketing instead of fighting against it, you spend less and get more from every campaign.

Whether you handle marketing yourself or work with an agency, your website becomes the hub where it all connects. Social media, ads, email campaigns, and SEO efforts all lead back to your store. If that experience feels slow or confusing, the sale is gone. A strong site gives your marketing room to work, turning visitors into actual customers.

What Is Important in an Ecommerce Store?

A great ecommerce site does more than list products. It guides people. It builds trust and helps them feel confident that what they see is what they’ll get. The difference between a store that sells and one that struggles often comes down to the small details. How quickly the page loads, how clear the layout feels, and how natural the buying process is from start to finish. We design every part of a store with those details in mind, because they directly affect how people use it and whether they choose to buy.

Website Speed

Speed is one of the biggest deciding factors in ecommerce. If your site loads slowly, customers leave before they even see what you offer, let alone decide to buy anything. We build for performance from the start, not as an afterthought. Every file, image, and line of code is optimized to load quickly, keeping both users and search engines happy.

When it comes to purchase time, the less hassle there is the higher likelihood of a sale. Simply put, people do not like friction and having to jump through hoops to get what they want. The quicker people are able to get what they're after the better.

Mobile Friendly

Most people shop on their phones, and that means your store has to work perfectly on smaller screens. We build all ecommerce sites mobile-first, which means mobile isn’t an afterthought or a squeezed-down version of the desktop view. The layout is designed to adapt smoothly across every device, so navigation, forms, and checkout all work naturally.

Buttons are spaced comfortably, images scale cleanly, and the experience feels just as professional on a phone as it does on a laptop. This not only improves usability but also builds trust. Customers are far more likely to complete a purchase when the process feels simple and stable, no matter where they are.

Easy to Use

Ease of use can make or break an ecommerce site. The best designs feel invisible, they don’t make users think about how to shop, they just make shopping easy. We simplify navigation, streamline product layouts, and keep the checkout process short and clear. The goal is to reduce friction at every point, from browsing to confirmation.

An intuitive layout helps customers find what they want faster and encourages them to explore more. Clean design also prevents mistakes, like choosing the wrong variant or missing important information. It’s not about stripping things away but about creating a flow that feels obvious and natural. The less effort a person spends figuring out your site, the more likely they are to complete their purchase.

Design

Design is what ties everything together. It’s not only about how your store looks but how it feels to use. A good design builds trust, reflects your brand, and directs attention where it matters, on your products. Every color, font, and layout choice affects how visitors move through your site.

We build every design around your business and your audience. If your brand is bold and modern, we’ll design something sharp and dynamic. If it’s more traditional or minimal, we’ll keep it simple and refined. The goal is always to make your products stand out and to make buying from you feel effortless. Clear calls to action, balanced spacing, and strong visual hierarchy all contribute to a site that looks professional and performs beautifully.

Ecommerce Through Foxycart And Shopify

We build ecommerce websites by hand for full control over speed, security, and customization. Every line of code is written for efficiency and search visibility. Depending on your business needs, we offer two main approaches: Foxycart and Shopify.

Foxycart

Foxycart is built on top of our Business and Business Ultimate plans creating the ecommerce option through Foxycart. It is built directly into your custom-coded site and supports a wide range of product types. Whether you are selling single products, bundles, subscriptions, or donations, Foxycart can handle it. That flexibility is one of the main reasons we chose them.

Unlike typical ecommerce setups, Foxycart is designed around performance and control. Every checkout flow is fully custom so your brand stays consistent from product page to payment confirmation. The integration is smooth and lightweight, which keeps pages fast and checkout simple for your customers.

Key benefits:

  • Fully custom checkout flow
  • Seamless product management with an optional CMS
  • Works with simple or advanced setups like variants and discounts
  • Hosting, maintenance, and ongoing support included
  • Secure, high-performance integration built for conversions

Foxycart is ideal if you want flexibility under a managed monthly plan. You get a system that can scale and adapt as your needs grow while we handle the technical work in the background. That means your store keeps improving over time without you having to worry about hosting, security, or performance issues.

Shopify

Our Shopify option is for clients who prefer a one-time standalone build or who want to use the Shopify ecosystem. We design your storefront by hand and connect it to Shopify’s backend for inventory, order management, and payments. This gives you design freedom while still using Shopify’s reliable infrastructure.

We do not rely on Shopify themes or drag-and-drop builders. Everything is coded from scratch for faster load times and better SEO. You get a custom storefront that looks and performs better than standard templates, while still benefiting from Shopify’s product and order tools.

Best for:

  • Businesses that want to edit the website themselves
  • Clients who prefer a single upfront payment
  • Stores that want Shopify’s ecosystem with a custom, high performance design

Even when Shopify handles the backend, our focus stays on clean, efficient front end code and search visibility. Every page is built to load quickly, work smoothly, and help you sell more.

Ecommerce Lite

Ecommerce Lite is a simplified version of our Foxycart setup, designed for smaller stores or organizations that only need a few products or donation options. It uses the same fast and secure Foxycart system but does not include a custom CMS. This setup is ideal if you want to start selling or collecting payments online without the complexity of a full ecommerce build. With a limit of up to five products, it is perfect for small shops, charities, churches, and nonprofits that just need a simple, reliable checkout system.

Ecommerce Lite is also a great option for testing the waters before expanding into a larger store later on. You get the same performance, stability, and hosting benefits from our Business monthly plans, but without the overhead of a full management system. It is quick to launch, easy to use, and built for long-term reliability.

Ongoing Support and Maintenance

Keeping your store updated and secure is just as important as the initial build. Every ecommerce site needs regular attention to stay fast, safe, and compatible with the latest standards. How that maintenance works depends on the type of plan you choose.

Monthly (Foxycart)

All Foxycart sites built under our monthly plans include full ongoing support. That means continuous updates, design adjustments, security patches, and performance monitoring are all handled for you. You do not have to worry about software versions, broken plugins, or downtime. If you ever need edits or new features, they are included in your plan. Our goal is to keep your store improving over time without you needing to manage any of the technical side.

Lump Sum (Shopify)

Shopify builds are delivered as complete, standalone projects. Once your site is launched, you own it outright and manage it through Shopify’s dashboard. Because this model does not include a monthly plan, there is no ongoing maintenance or edits built in. If you ever need updates or changes later, support is available on request and billed hourly. This approach is best suited for clients who prefer a one-time setup and plan to handle ongoing updates on their own.

Choosing the Right Ecommerce Approach

Every business sells differently, which is why we offer both managed monthly plans and standalone builds. The right choice depends on how hands-on you want to be, how often you expect to make changes, and whether you prefer simplicity or full control.

If you are not sure which path fits best, we put together a detailed breakdown comparing both options in our Foxycart vs Shopify post. It explains how each system works, what to expect from setup through management, and how to decide based on your goals.

No matter which option you choose, the goal stays the same: to give you a fast, secure, and conversion-focused store that performs well for years. Whether it is a fully managed Foxycart site or a custom Shopify build, your store will be built by hand for performance, usability, and long-term reliability.
