Straight answers
These are marked up so AI assistants can quote them. Your store gets the same treatment.
Do you only build Shopify stores?
No. Shopify storefronts are the deepest specialty here, but the same stack ships custom websites, web apps, and API integrations: Next.js on Vercel, with GA4 analytics and SEO built in. If it runs in a browser, I can build it.
What does a custom build cost?
Typical storefront builds land between US$2,500 and US$18,000, depending on scope. Essentials builds start at US$2,500, custom storefronts with integrations around US$5,000–9,000, and fully bespoke flagship builds from US$10,000. Websites and apps are quoted the same way, as a flat, fixed price before work begins, and usually well under agency rates for the same scope. Monthly care plans start at US$490. Base keeps your site maintained and its launch SEO intact. Summit and above add ongoing technical SEO and AI-search upkeep. Keyword SEO and paid ads management are available as add-ons. Australian clients pay the same figures in A$, with no GST. Clients in Japan pay ¥310,000–2,210,000 for builds and from ¥60,000 a month for care plans, tax included.
How fast can you launch?
Most sites and storefronts launch in 2–10 weeks depending on scope. AI-assisted development shortens the build, and I still review and test every release myself.
What is AI search optimization?
More and more people ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini what to buy instead of searching. I add schema.org markup, clean semantic HTML, an llms.txt file, and copy that answers questions directly, so Google and AI assistants can find what you sell, quote it, and recommend it.
Can you take over an existing site or store?
Yes. Migrations, rebuilds, performance rescues, and care plans for sites and stores I didn’t originally build are all common projects.
