Find answers to common questions
We build Shopify and WooCommerce sites with a technical-first approach that combines user experience, conversion-rate optimisation, and back-end analytics to support revenue-focused outcomes and scalable growth.
We implement GA4, Google Tag Manager, server-side tracking, and data pipeline practices (ETL) to reduce signal loss and align marketing metrics with actual revenue and customer journeys.
CRO is integrated throughout design and development: we use quantitative analytics and A/B testing to identify friction, iterate page layouts and copy, and prioritise changes that increase revenue per visitor.
Design decisions are evaluated by measurable impacts on conversion rate, average order value, customer lifetime value, and acquisition cost, with priorities set to improve profitability rather than vanity metrics.
We handle both new builds and redesigns as well as migrations, performance optimisation, and technical debt remediation while preserving or improving revenue-critical tracking and integrations.

Structure for revenue
Tracking-first approach
Test and iterate
Site architecture is the backbone of findability, user experience, and attribution accuracy. For US-based founders and growth teams, small structural improvements can reduce acquisition costs, improve conversion rates, and make analytics more reliable. This guide focuses on technical-first website optimization techniques for better site architecture with real-world examples for Shopify, WooCommerce, and B2B sites.
| Type | Example URL | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Category | /mens-running/ | Topical hub for product discovery |
| Product | /mens-running/running-shoe-model-x/ | Conversion-focused landing |
| Blog | /blog/how-to-choose-running-shoes/ | TOF education content |
Quick note: for Shopify and WooCommerce stores, canonical and collection templates should be audited after any URL change to avoid losing organic visibility.
Map content to funnel stages and tag each page for analytics. A simple mapping helps prioritize architecture work toward pages that drive revenue.
| Touchpoint | Event to capture | Where to implement |
|---|---|---|
| Category landing | page_view + facet_interaction | client-side GA4 + server-side collection |
| Add-to-cart | add_to_cart (with product id, price) | GTM dataLayer + server endpoint |
| Checkout | purchase (order_id, revenue) | server-side transaction event |

After the foundational layout, focus on performance, clean data, and UX flows that support conversion. These techniques are designed to improve revenue impact and attribution accuracy rather than vanity metrics.
Move high-value events to server-side collection to minimize data loss from ad-blockers and browser restrictions. Clean event schemas and consistent IDs (order_id, product_id) make MER and CAC calculations more reliable.
Example: a US Shopify store with 50,000 monthly sessions, a $100 average order value (AOV), and a 1.5% conversion rate could see measurable revenue changes from architecture work. If architecture and UX changes improve conversion by an estimated 0.4 percentage points (1.5% → 1.9%), projected monthly incremental revenue is approximately $20,000 (50,000 * 0.004 * $100). These figures are estimates and will vary by site and traffic quality.

Plan iterative sprints: Strategy → Build → Test → Scale → Report. Start with a technical crawl and prioritized list of high-impact structural fixes, then run controlled experiments on category templates and checkout funnels. Focus on measurable revenue improvements and clean attribution for every change.
