How much does it cost to get an ecommerce site?

Populate has been developed to make the deployment, setup, management and decommissioning of ecommerce and content managed sites more efficient and this time saving is reflected in our pricing. This automation allows us to compete with the 'site-builders' such as Shopify and Big-commerce but with the hand-held and personal service of a specialist provider giving you the best of both worlds and allowing SMEs to compete with their far wealthier competition.

Build costs

All sites are different so we will need to know a bit more from you before we can answer this. Lets jump on a call and we can go through your requirements and we will give you a no-obligation fixed price quote. All of our sites start as a duplicate of something very similar to the demo store. This may be all you need and you want to do everything yourself (just like you would for Shopify etc) in which case only the yearly costs below would apply. We only charge for the time we spend and our hourly rates are highly competitive. We are more than happy to add features when your ever-increasing sales and budget allow so the site can grow as you grow.

Yearly costs

Below are our yearly hosting and support costs. These are competitive with all of the site-builders (Shopify, Big commerce etc) but involve a level of personal support that these big companies can only dream of.
