You don’t have to get to the coding stage for an ecommerce app project to fail. They are prone to breaking long before that. The brief is too vague, the agency has every reason to nod along and say yes, and the buyer won’t know a $20k quote from a $90k one until six months […]

You can have three agencies put a price on the same store and get back $3,000, $28,000 and $140,000. It is easy to think they are being dishonest until you sit down with the proposals. In truth, one has put together a checkout, another a full store and the third a system that will run […]

Ask two developers to weigh in on Drupal versus WordPress and you will get diametrically opposed counsel, yet both will have a point. One will tell you to go with WordPress for the cost savings, the speed of launch and how readily a non-developer can put it to work. The other will insist that if […]

You will find that most maintenance quotes are a non-answer. The buyer puts the question on the table: “What is your monthly rate?” and the vendor gives you a flat figure. It is a number that conveniently obscures what really matters, like how the site is hosted or who is at the phone when something […]

They get built before anyone has tested whether the problem is real, whether the proposed solution is useful, and whether users will change their behavior to adopt it.

Writing the code is by far the least expensive thing about a SaaS product in 2026. With the tooling available today you can have an MVP in the field in two to twelve weeks that would have had you tied up for six months in the past. The speed is no illusion and it has […]

You won’t find 38% of all the Shopify stores ever put together still in operation today. The numbers are stark: of the some 8.65 million stores the platform has seen, only about 5.3 million were running in early 2024. Don’t blame Shopify for that discrepancy. It is the natural result of buyers treating store development […]

You will find WordPress powering some 43 per cent of the top ten million sites on the web. Squarespace is in the low single digits by comparison. But that chasm in market share tells you little about what platform is right for you. The more pertinent question is not which is the bigger name, but […]

You can lose a customer in the first ten seconds of him visiting your site. The hero video has loaded, a cookie banner is obscuring the link to the menu and the address is down in a footer he isn’t going to bother scrolling for. He was all set to put in a reservation but […]
