FAQs

Everything you need to know about how we work and what to expect.

Should I hire a Shopify developer or a Shopify development company?

Hire a Shopify developer when you have a defined backlog of features or fixes and someone in-house to manage the work. Hire a Shopify development company when you need design, development, QA and launch handled together, or when the project is a full build or migration. Byte DiGTL offers both: full project builds and dedicated Shopify developers billed monthly.

How long does Shopify ecommerce development take?

Shopify ecommerce development usually takes 6 to 14 weeks from discovery to launch. A store built on a customized premium theme can launch in about 6 weeks. Custom themes, Shopify Plus features, complex integrations or a migration from another platform take longer. Byte DiGTL works in five phases: discovery, design, build, QA and launch, then ongoing growth.

How do I choose the right Shopify development partner?

Choose Shopify development partners with Shopify Partner status, with experience in your category and a clear support plan after launch. Ask who owns the theme code, how they protect SEO during migrations, and whether they can also handle marketing. Byte DiGTL handles strategy, design, development, support, and marketing in-house including SEO services for Shopify.

Do I need a Shopify web designer, or can I use a theme?

A premium Shopify theme works for new brands with simple catalogs and a tight budget. A Shopify web designer is worth it when your brand needs a distinct look, your products need custom page layouts, or your conversion rate is lagging. Most growing brands start from a strong theme and customize it. Byte DiGTL's Shopify web designers do both custom themes and theme customization.

What is Shopify SEO?

Shopify SEO services optimize a website store for content and product pages to rank in search engines and get cited in AI answer engines. Our Shopify SEO consultant conducts an SEO ecommerce site audit and develops a strategy to structure content, product descriptions for relevant keywords and questions asked to AI engines. Byte DiGTL’s Shopify SEO experts combine the technical strategies with content and AI search optimization (AEO and GEO) so more of your product catalog gets found, ranked and converted into revenue.
