E-Commerce Development for Ghent businesses
Ghent has a substantial biotechnology and clean technology cluster anchored by its university, alongside port activity and a strong cultural economy. Research-led buyers bring rigorous evaluation and documentation expectations. The city is compact and reputation-driven, so referrals matter more than advertising. We lead with technical substance and treat the university ecosystem as a distinct audience.
Belgium requires genuine multilingual capability across Dutch, French, and English to reach the whole market.
Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, and headless commerce builds optimised for conversion, not just checkout functionality.

Common questions
Which platform should we choose?
Shopify for most merchants — hosted, secure, and excellent at checkout. WooCommerce if you are content-led on WordPress and need flexibility. Magento for large catalogues with complex B2B pricing and a team to run it. We decide on catalogue, team, and margins rather than preference.
How do we improve conversion rate?
Usually through speed and checkout friction before anything else. Faster pages, fewer steps, shipping costs shown early, and the payment methods your market expects typically outperform redesigns.
Can you migrate our existing store?
Yes. Products, customers, orders, and URLs are migrated with redirect mapping so search rankings survive. Migration is scripted and validated rather than re-keyed.
Do apps slow the store down?
Frequently, yes. Each app typically adds scripts to every page. We audit app impact on load time and often find measurable gains from removing ones that duplicate functionality or are no longer used.
