FAQ
Shopify Development Questions
Shopify development with CloudyWP starts from $300 for a focused piece of work — a theme customisation or a single fix — and runs to $20,000+ for a large custom store build with custom app development. Most Melbourne store builds land in between. Every project is a fixed quote after a scoping conversation, separate from your ongoing Shopify subscription, which Shopify bills directly.
Most custom Shopify builds take around five weeks from kickoff to launch — covering design, theme development, product setup, testing, and your review. A large catalogue or custom app work takes longer, which we set out in the quote before we start.
Yes — WooCommerce to Shopify migration is a service we offer. We move your products, customers, and order history, set up the new store, and aim to preserve your existing search rankings through proper URL redirects. We test the new store thoroughly before switching anything over.
Both — depending on what suits your budget and goals. A customised premium theme is faster and more cost-effective for many stores; a fully custom theme makes sense when you need a distinctive design or specific functionality. We will talk through the trade-offs honestly rather than pushing the more expensive option.
It depends on your business. Shopify is a hosted platform — simpler to run, with less maintenance, and strong for straightforward retail. WooCommerce offers more control and flexibility but needs more upkeep. We build on both, so our recommendation reflects what fits your situation rather than what we would prefer to sell.
