Web Development Review from Charlotte Conn
Working with Amy and Marcus is an absolute pleasure, they are always so friendly and approachable and are an amazing extension to our team. Right from the start of our website build, Media Lounge have gone out of their way to help with any question I might ask (no matter how ridiculous!), and are always excited to take on new projects with us. Amy has gone above and beyond to bring new ideas to the table and help with our annual planning. I'm so grateful for your support!

CRO Review from Cormac Moylan
We (a large international e-Commerce site) wished to increase sales and revenue by improving our conversion rate. Because of the nuances of the market we operated in, It was important we partnered with an agency that understood our business and the relationship we have with our customers. Lauren, Grace, Jackson, and the entire team from Media Lounge understood this. Their tactics and optimisations were carefully tailored on improving the connection between our business and customers. Every opportunity recommended by Media Lounge was aligned to our business goals and demonstrated their expertise, knowledge, and abilities. I was impressed with their in-depth research, solutions, attention to detail, and most importantly; the resulting uplift from their efforts. They challenged us when we needed challenging, they addressed assumptions that previously impacted sales performance, and they introduced positive change for both our customers and our business. We couldn't be happier to have partnered with Media Lounge.

Web Design Review from Anthony
If you are looking for a web design company that is happy to go that extra mile, i would highly recommend Media Lounge. If you are like me and words like 'DNS' 'or CHRON' are another language to you, then you have found the right company, they appreciate not every one grasps the in and outs of how everything works in a website, so everything is explained to you easily and clearly. On top of this they build websites that not only look inspiring, but more importantly covert browsers to buyers at an incredibly impressive rate. Our's jumped from a fairly industry average at 2% to 6% - overnight.

We had the pleasure of working with Giant Marketers for the development of our new website at CADCA (Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America). As an organization dedicated to creating and maintaining safe, healthy, and drug-free communities globally, our website is a critical tool for connecting with community coalitions and sharing resources.

Working with Brandastic to build our businesses website was a seamless experience. As a legal professional, I needed a site that was not only visually impressive but also technically sound for SEO.
Their team excels at WordPress development and truly understands how to translate complex service offerings into a user-friendly interface.
Since launching, we’ve seen a noticeable improvement in our digital presence. If you’re looking for a top-tier digital marketing agency in Orange County, I highly recommend Justin / Sandy and the rest of the Brandastic team

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Shopify Development Companies
What services do Shopify development agencies offer?
They provide end-to-end solutions that cover everything from initial strategy to long-term growth. Businesses should look for Shopify experts who combine Shopify development, design, integration, and digital marketing to maximize ROI.
Core Shopify development services include:
Shopify Store development and web development: Creating Shopify and Shopify Plus sites from scratch, tailored to brand and business models. Shopify website development includes user experience (UX), navigation and structure, and scalable eCommerce architecture for growth.
Shopify theme development and customization: Designing advanced Shopify themes using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and managing performance optimization and mobile responsiveness.
Shopify app development and software development: Creating custom Shopify apps for unique business needs, private and public apps, and developing backend software for automation and integrations.
Shopify integration services: Managing third-party integrations (ERP, CRM, PIM, payment gateways), API-based Shopify integration with logistics, accounting, and marketing tools, and automating business processes.
Shopify migration: Transferring existing stores from platforms like WooCommerce, Magento, or custom systems, handling data transfer (products, customers, orders), and managing SEO-safe URL mapping and redirects.
Performance and optimization (CRO): Enhancing site speed, mobile optimization, and user experience (UX) to increase conversion rates.
Ongoing support and maintenance: Providing regular updates, security monitoring, and technical support
When does a business need Shopify Plus and a Shopify Plus Partner?
A business typically needs Shopify Plus and the support of a Shopify Plus partner when its eCommerce operations become too complex, high-volume, or globally distributed for standard Shopify plans. At this stage, businesses require a more advanced Shopify solution to support automation, multi-store management, and international commerce.
At that point, success depends on:
Advanced Shopify development
Strong integrations
Optimized Shopify design and UX
Continuous growth through digital marketing and Shopify SEO
Top Shopify development companies help turn Shopify Plus from a platform upgrade into a long-term competitive advantage. Shopify Plus is designed for high-growth brands that usually generate $1M+ in annual revenue or experience rapid monthly growth.
Shopify reported that its merchants processed over $235 billion in gross merchandise volume (GMV) in 2023, showing how quickly businesses on the platform can scale.
How much does it cost to hire a Shopify development company?
The cost of hiring a Shopify development agency can vary significantly based on your store’s complexity, required features, and long-term goals.
Shopify developers charge between $30 and $200+ per hour or $5,000 to over $30,000 for full website development, according to DesignRush data.
Location is another factor that influences pricing. Agencies in the United States and across North America typically charge between $50 and $150+ per hour, while Eastern European or Asian Shopify development agencies may offer more competitive rates of $15 to $80 per hour.
Platform and ongoing costs to consider:
Shopify plans range from $39 per month to $2,300+ per month.
Payment processing fees typically range from 1% to 3% per transaction.
Ongoing maintenance and support can cost between $90 and $2,400+ per month.
Do I need custom Shopify theme customization or an existing theme with minor edits?
Choosing between the two depends on your business stage, budget, and the level of differentiation your Shopify store needs to compete effectively.
Shopify theme customization vs. existing theme
Existing theme with edits
Custom theme development
Best for startups or simple store setups
Best for scaling businesses and advanced development
Lower cost: $0-$5,000
Higher investment: $10,000-$30,000+
Fast launch: days to a few weeks
Longer timeline: 4-12+ weeks
Uses 200+ pre-built Shopify themes
Fully custom Shopify design and theme development
Limited flexibility; relies on apps
Full control; ability to reduce need for apps and improve UX
Good baseline performance
Optimized performance where speed improvements can increase conversions by 8-10%
Essentially, you should choose an existing Shopify theme with minor edits if your priorities are speed, cost-efficiency, and simplicity. Go for a custom Shopify theme development if your priorities are scalability, performance, and differentiation.
What should a Shopify migration company include to protect SEO, data, and sales?
A reliable agency should protect your rankings, customer data, and revenue throughout the process.
At a minimum, a professional Shopify migration service should include:
SEO preservation: Full URL mapping, 301 redirects, and metadata transfer to prevent ranking loss
Data migration: Accurate transfer of products, customers, and order history with validation checks
Shopify integration: Reconnection of apps, payment systems, ERP, and CRM tools
Testing and QA: Full testing of checkout, payments, and user flows before launch
Performance optimization: Improved speed and mobile UX as part of Shopify development
Post-migration monitoring: Tracking traffic, rankings, and fixing issues after launch
These elements are critical because around 33% of users discover brands through search, according to recent reports. Therefore, even small SEO losses can directly impact sales.
