Magento Web Design Perth for Stores That Have Outgrown the Basics
Magento suits a particular kind of business. Thousands of products. Trade customers buying on account. A warehouse or accounting system the website has to talk to. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. If you’ve got fifty products and sell to the public, we’ll probably point you somewhere simpler, and we’ll say so on the first call.
Magento Development Done Locally, in Perth
There aren’t many agencies in Perth who build on Magento properly. It’s a heavier platform than Shopify or WordPress, it needs its own hosting, and it rewards developers who know it well and punishes the ones who don’t. Our developers are Magento certified and have worked on both Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce, the paid version that used to be called Magento Commerce. We’ve been doing Magento web design in Perth long enough to tell you which one you need, and most local businesses don’t need the paid one.
What We Do on Magento
Every Magento project is a bit different, but the work usually falls into three buckets.
Custom Magento Design
Magento’s default themes look like Magento. Yours shouldn’t. We design the category pages, product pages and checkout around how your customers actually shop, and a wholesale buyer ordering 80 lines at once shops nothing like a retail customer buying one thing. Quick order forms, saved lists, tiered pricing tables, category pages that don’t fall over with 3,000 products in them. Whatever your buyers need to get through an order fast.
Magento Development
This is where most of the work goes. Custom modules, ERP and inventory integrations, B2B features like company accounts and credit limits, and the performance tuning that keeps a 10,000-product catalogue loading quickly. We’ve connected Magento to MYOB, Xero, NetSuite and a few warehouse systems you’ve probably never heard of. If your business runs on it, we can usually get Magento talking to it.
Magento SEO & Marketing
A big catalogue is a big SEO opportunity. It’s also a big way to make a mess. Layered navigation on its own can spawn thousands of duplicate URLs if nobody sets the canonicals, and Google will crawl every one of them. We handle the technical side during the build, then write category and product content that gives Google something worth ranking. Our e-commerce SEO Perth service keeps that going month to month once you’re live.
Why Perth Businesses Choose Us for Magento
Not sure Magento is the right fit? Our website design and development in Perth page walks through the other platforms we build on and who each one suits.
Certified Magento Developers
Magento certified, with years of Perth projects behind them. This is specialist website development in Perth, and it's a different job from building a brochure site.
Built Around How You Sell
Trade pricing, quote requests, minimum order quantities, whatever your sales process needs. We build to the way you already do business rather than asking you to change it to suit the software.
Works on a Phone
Even wholesale buyers put orders in from the ute these days. Every store we build gets tested on phones and tablets, checkout included.
Integrations That Hold Up
ERP, accounting, warehouse, freight. We build the connections properly so stock and orders sync on their own and nobody's re-keying them on a Friday afternoon.
Support and Maintenance
Magento needs patching. Security releases come out regularly and skipping them is how stores get hacked. We keep yours current, and we're in Perth when something breaks.
Fast Loading Speeds
Magento gets slow when it's built carelessly. We set up caching, image handling and hosting properly, so a big catalogue still loads quickly on a patchy mobile connection out past Northam.
Magento builds take longer than a standard website, so we keep the stages clear and you’ll always know which one you’re in.
- Discovery & Planning
We sit down with you and go through your catalogue, your customer types, the systems you run and what the store has to do for each of them. From that we write a proper scope. With Magento, the scope is what keeps the project on budget, so we don’t rush it.
- Design & Prototyping
Wireframes first, then designs for the page types that matter. Category, product, cart, checkout, and the customer account area if you’re doing B2B. You sign off on these before any development starts.
- Development & Integration
The build itself. Theme, custom modules, the connections to your ERP or accounting software, payment gateways and freight. You get a staging site and can test things as they come together instead of waiting for a big reveal.
- Testing & Quality Assurance
We test with your real product data, because sample data never shows the problems. Orders, pricing rules, stock sync, speed with the full catalogue loaded, and the whole lot again on a phone.
- Launch & Support
We move the store onto production hosting, keep a close eye on it for the first couple of weeks, then settle into regular maintenance. Patches, upgrades and whatever changes you need once real customers are using it.
Magento Web Design FAQs
Magento Open Source is free to use. You pay for hosting and development, nothing to Adobe. Adobe Commerce is the licensed version, with extra B2B features, cloud hosting and Adobe’s support behind it, and the licence isn’t cheap. Most Perth businesses we work with do well on Open Source with the right extensions. We’ll only recommend Adobe Commerce if you need what it adds, and we’ll show you exactly what that is.
Usually not, and we’d rather tell you now than after you’ve paid for it. Magento starts to make sense from a few thousand products, or when you sell to trade customers with their own pricing, or when the website has to plug into your other systems. For a smaller shop a Shopify store is quicker to build and cheaper to run. For a business that mainly needs a content site with a small shop attached, a WordPress site with WooCommerce does the job.
Yes, that’s most of our Magento work. Company accounts with several buyers under them, customer-specific pricing, quote requests, credit limits, minimum order quantities, quick order forms. The retail side of the store runs alongside all that on the same install, so you’re not maintaining two websites.
Almost always. We’ve integrated Magento with accounting packages, ERP systems and warehouse software so stock levels, prices, customers and orders sync both ways. How much work it takes depends on what your system will let us access, so we look at that early on, before anyone’s committed to a number.
Yes, and you should. Magento 1 stopped getting security patches in 2020, so a store still running on it is exposed. We migrate products, customers, orders and URLs across to Magento 2, rebuild the theme, and swap old extensions for supported ones. We also migrate from WooCommerce, Shopify and custom-built platforms when a business has outgrown them.
Longer than a Shopify or WordPress site. A straightforward Magento store is usually a couple of months. Add B2B features, integrations or a migration and it can run to four or five. We’ll give you a realistic timeline once the scope is agreed, not a number that sounds good in a sales meeting.
We do. Magento needs regular security patches and version upgrades, and it needs someone who knows the platform to apply them without breaking things. Our maintenance covers patching, upgrades, monitoring and small changes, and we’re in Perth if something needs sorting quickly.
Why Super Cheap Digital?
Honest About What You Need
We’re a web design agency in Perth that builds on Shopify and WordPress as well, so we’ve got no reason to push Magento on a business that doesn’t need it. If you do need it, you’re talking to people who work on it every week.
Clear Scope, Clear Updates
Magento projects go wrong when the scope is vague. Ours isn’t. You get a written scope up front, a staging site to test as we go, and updates in plain English instead of developer speak.
Judged on What the Store Does
A Magento store is a serious investment and it should earn it back. We build for orders, for staff hours saved on re-keying, and for a store that still runs well in three years. That’s how we’d want to be judged.
