WooCommerce, when the shop is part of a bigger site.
WooCommerce puts the shop inside WordPress, which suits a business whose selling is one part of a bigger site rather than the whole of it. Sites Crafted builds WooCommerce stores priced on scope. If the shop is the entire business, we will usually point you at Shopify instead.
E-commerce inside WordPress, when the shop is part of a bigger site.
Why this one
What WooCommerce is genuinely good at.
One site, not two
The shop lives inside the WordPress site rather than on a separate platform with separate content.
No platform fee
No monthly licence and no transaction cut beyond what the payment gateway charges.
You still own it
Same as any WordPress site — portable, exportable, yours.
The trade-off
Every platform costs you something.
It is more to look after. You own the hosting, the performance and the security that Shopify would otherwise own, and a busy WooCommerce store needs real hosting rather than the cheapest plan. If the shop is the whole business, we will usually point you at Shopify instead.
Suits: A business whose selling is one part of a larger site — a trade with a small parts store, a clinic selling a few products.

Frequently asked questions
Why not just use Shopify?
Often you should. WooCommerce wins when the shop is one part of a bigger site, when you want no platform fee, or when you need the store to be portable. Shopify wins when selling is the whole business. If you tell us which you are, we will tell you which one this is.
What does a WooCommerce site cost?
The same as any other site we build: $500 ex GST for up to three pages, $1,000 for up to ten, $2,500 for up to twenty-five. Platform subscriptions, where the platform charges one, are paid by you directly to them and are not part of our price. Full pricing.
Can you move an existing site onto WooCommerce?
Usually. What matters is where the content and the URLs are now, because a migration that changes every URL without redirecting them throws away whatever search visibility the old site had. We check that first and tell you what it will cost to keep.
Who looks after it afterwards?
We do, if you want us to. Hosting, updates, backups and someone to call are part of what we quote rather than an upsell at handover. Seventeen sites are on that arrangement now.
