Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Our project involved upgrading our website from an outdated Shopify theme to an updated, optimized for conversion theme. This involved ensuring our new theme had all of the features we were looking for out of the box that we previously had to use third party apps for. It also involved designing an updated PLP and PDP for our site.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Increased our conversion from a 1.9% to a 2.4%. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The project management was actually an area where I think the team could improve. I ended up having to put a lot effort into project managing from the client side which is not what I would expect. I think the team could really improve by establishing some clear project processes like a sprint tracker with clear level of effort / estimated hours and timeline. I think weekly meetings with clear agendas would also be great, it felt like we were constantly having to ask about the status of our tasks and the project timelines. On multiple occassions we asked if the team thought there was a risk to our go live date and they expressed that the remaining work posed no risk to the timeline. This ended up not be true which caused us to push back the project 2 times, going live about 2 weeks later than expected. We would have appreciated a more realistic view of the timeline and clear communcation of potential risk. Pushing back was not a problem as we did not have a hard deadline but each time, we pushed back after the team had already confirmed we were on track and then as it got closer, realized we were not going to hit our goal. 

What was your primary form of communication with CommerceShop?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I think their developers were really talented and collaborative, which was something that I appreciated!

Are there any areas for improvement or something CommerceShop could have done differently?

As mentioned in my comment about the project management, that really is the biggest area of improvement I think that the CommerceShop could benefit from. I also think communication could be better, there are many times where we did not hear from the team after they said they would follow up which meant that we ended up reaching out to follow up on their behalf.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Commerce Shop did a great job reviewing our BigCommerce skin and suggesting updates to improve the user experience.  We don't internally have anyone who can code, so they were able to enhance our website's functionality (badge icons, category blowouts, redesigned home page, etc) through their expertise while also increasing the speed at which our pages loaded.  Updates to the layout of mobile vs desktop were also made to enhance the above-the-fold view for both.  We now have a website that is on par with most major companies at a fraction of the cost.  The best part is that we can still add new items ourselves and keep all the new features of our product pages that the CommerceShop added. 

They also reviewed and updated our title tags, meta tags, added a blog page, etc., to complete a full on-page SEO approach.  They also started working on offpage SEO and AEO through guest post articles and other means to help us rank better for common search terms for our products.  We are in some pretty small niches, so the SEO and AEO worked pretty fast.

We now plan to work with CommerceShop in the future on a seasonal basis, as our business is very seasonal.  I liked that CommerceShop was very willing to listen to what our needs were and to modify or add any suggestions we had to their audit website proposal.  When I had issues or questions, their team was very quick to respond.  

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

YOY increase in sales of 22%.  I expect another nice bump this year (2026) as we are a fourth-quarter heavy business, and we only rolled out this project in November of 2025.  We also were facing some headwinds from a sourcing challenge with some of our products that didn't help our YOY figures.  That will all be resolved in 2026.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

We decided to work with CommerceShop after receiving a cold call and listening to their project proposal.  We knew we had to work quickly to benefit from the site upgrades, and the CommerceShop did a great job of rolling things out quickly.  A couple of items had to be delayed, but that was more due to the fact that we had changes we wanted to make.  In a normal environment where a company didn't have such a tight turnaround timeline I think all the deadlines would be able to be hit.  We still didn't have anything fall behind that much.  

What was your primary form of communication with CommerceShop?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I would say the value they brought for the cost was excellent.  The team that I got to work with was pretty large, so everyone had their core area of expertise.

Are there any areas for improvement or something CommerceShop could have done differently?

When it came to the blog entries I think most of them were generated partially or all through AI.  In order to clean them up for our new internal blog I had to spend quite a lot of time editing the articles to make sure all the information was accurate and complete.

I had never used some of the software platforms they used to communicate on, so that took a bit of time to understand how to use them.  I'm not sure if there is anything that can be done here other than a short walk-through to make sure clients understand how communication will occur.  I did end up sending some emails to their staff directly, which they were fine with.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We have seen an immediate increase in business as my website was designed around my photography and is much more user-friendly.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

I worked with a number of individuals at The Commerce Shop. However, there was a head designer and manager that handled my project. They worked efficiently and completed the project in a timely fashion.

What was your primary form of communication with CommerceShop?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I had a fantastic experience working with the CRO team on my website redesign and optimization. They not only delivered a site that looks cleaner and more professional, but they also significantly improved the overall flow and user experience — which is incredibly important for my photography business.

They went above and beyond by cleaning up outdated plugins and strengthening the site’s security, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’m especially impressed with how they listened to my goals and translated them into a design that feels true to my brand.

The results speak for themselves, and I’m excited to continue working with them. I highly recommend their team if you’re looking for thoughtful, efficient, and high-quality web design and optimization.

Are there any areas for improvement or something CommerceShop could have done differently?

The only suggestion that I can think of is to use a app or website, where we can easily communicate about adjustments made to the website.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We're a small company with no prior experience with SEO; we just knew that we should be doing something. The Commerce Shop was brought on to start us from the ground up, starting with on site improvements like meta tags, then moving to external link building and page authority. 

This helped us rank for our focus keywords and ultimately increased site visits and revenue.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

key word ranking, organic search traffic increase, revenue from organic search

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Since we didn't know what we wanted of needed, communication in the beginning was a little rocky but the TCS team stayed patient with us and took the time to explain and teach us about what they were doing and why. 

Tasks were completed on time, and as we gained more understanding about the process and goals, we were able to make necessary adjustments to focus on what was important to us.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the director of marketing at a value-added distributor of industrial computer and networking products.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with The Commerce Shop?

We wanted to combine our two existing websites. It was difficult to maintain both sites, and they caused confusion. During advertising campaigns, we’d always have to decide which site the campaign would promote.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The Commerce Shop created one website that served the functions of our two previous sites. One was a B2B site hosted on Wix, and the other was a B2C site hosted on BigCommerce. At the start of the project, we showed them our websites, as well as sites that we admired and wanted to use as guidance. We also gave them basic information about our company and our goals for the project.

The Commerce Shop merged these two sites into one that was hosted on BigCommerce. They also redirected all of our materials to one shortened URL.

What is the team composition?

I worked with at least three members of The Commerce Shop’s team, but there were more behind the scenes. I worked with a technical project manager, a creative UI designer, and an SEO and CRO specialist.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $27,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in December 2021, and the project was completed in October 2022.

How did you come to work with The Commerce Shop?

They were a recommended provider by BigCommerce. There weren’t very many development teams that I researched that were willing to work on BigCommerce, but The Commerce Shop was.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The Commerce Shop was very successful in migrating the two websites into one. They applied a simple URL to that site. We’re very happy with the final result and the look of the project pages.

How did the company perform from a project management standpoint?

The Commerce Shop worked within the budget. The project took longer than expected, but that was on our end; we’re a small team, and it took a while for us to make decisions and get back to The Commerce Shop. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

The Commerce Shop was very flexible, respectful, and courteous. They accepted our input well; it was nice to work with them. I’ve worked with teams in the past that could be standoffish or discount our ideas, but that wasn’t my experience with The Big Commerce. They made our ideas happen without pushback or upselling. There was no scope creep, and we weren’t sold additional packages even though The Commerce Shop offers other services.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don't think so.

The Commerce Shop scope of work included conversion rate optimization, page speed optimization, new cart development, custom product page development, homepage design and development, product collection optimization, installation and optimization of 3rd party apps, and more.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

• Sales conversion rate
• Page load speed
• Customer journey

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They are very organized with specific deliverables and deadlines, as well as weekly or biweekly virtual meetings to go over progress and updates. Their response rate is extremely prompt, and they are very quick to troubleshoot and assist with issues.

What was your primary form of communication with The Commerce Shop?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their professionalism and expertise were top-notch, but the most impressive / unique attribute is their prompt customer service and willingness to help.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Commerce Shop could have done differently?

My only constructive feedback would be that their tendency to use 3rd party apps can potentially result in slower page load times and confusing back-end complications, but all of their positive attributes definitely outweigh this.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m an executive at a fundraising company that has an online business. We work primarily in the US.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with The Commerce Shop?

We needed to redesign our company’s website to increase our web traffic and Google rankings.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The Commerce Shop assists us with four particular tasks: website design and development, SEO strategy, conversion rate optimization, and PPC strategy on Google and social media.

We initially discussed with The Commerce Shop our project’s requirements to improve our site’s performance and security, as well as its UX and Google rankings. Our previous site was created on Drupal, and The Commerce Shop has redesigned and developed the new site on the newest Drupal version. 

The Commerce Shop is currently working on our SEO strategy to attract more web traffic and improve our organic search rankings. They’ve realized keyword analysis and backlinking on guest blogs, amongst other SEO strategies. We’ve used different web analytics tools, including Google Analytics and Google Search Central (formerly Google Webmasters), to set and monitor our site’s KPIs.

Moreover, The Commerce Shop is also assisting us with our site’s conversion rate optimization and manages PPC campaigns on Google and social media.

What is the team composition?

Since our project divides into four different aspects, we work with four different teams from The Commerce Shop. Each team has a leader and has around 4–7 teammates from The Commerce Shop. Overall, we work with around 15 team members.

How did you come to work with The Commerce Shop?

I initially found The Commerce Shop through one of their subsidiary companies, which is a Drupal partner. I researched extensively for business providers and asked a couple of companies to submit a business proposal. We chose The Commerce Shop based on their detailed proposal since their goals were aligned with ours. 

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve invested around $50,000 with The Commerce Shop.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with The Commerce Shop in December 2021, and our engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

Since we’ve been working with The Commerce Shop, we’ve set unprecedented records on our Google rankings, web traffic, web views, and click-through rates. We’ve worked with other companies before and are very pleased with The Commerce Shop’s results — that is why I’ve agreed to do this review.

Moreover, our conversion rate is exponentially increasing. Our average Google Search position during 2022 was 31.9, which means we appeared on the third page of search results. On the other hand, during 2023, our average Google Search position has been 25.1 — this is an indicator that our rankings are already improving thanks to The Commerce Shop’s SEO strategy. 

How did The Commerce Shop perform from a project management standpoint?

The Commerce Shop meets deadlines and delivers work in a timely manner. During our meetings, I always ask for an expected delivery date for work, and The Commerce Shop always meets them. They work fast, especially with urgent requests when sometimes they deliver them on the same day. 

We have a weekly call through Google Meet. To collaborate with The Commerce Shop, we use Jira and Google Drive. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m most impressed with The Commerce Shop's commitment to pleasing the customers. They work in a detailed and thorough way and come up with ideas I haven’t thought about. I’ve worked with other companies before, and The Commerce Shop is obsessed with delivering perfect work. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

Honestly, I don’t have any criticism for them. I’m working with four different teams, and each team is different. They’re different from the other teams. However, they’ve performed fantastically overall.

I think The Commerce Shop could improve their internal communication. Since we work with four different teams, sometimes I’m the mediator that has to follow up with other teams' work. I wish they had more synergy between internal teams so everyone knows about the overall project’s progress. The Commerce Shop can improve their internal communication. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend having a clear understanding of your project’s expectations before contacting The Commerce Shop. Research different companies because this is a serious investment, review their proposals in detail, and don’t be afraid to ask questions.
