WooCommerce stores designed and built in Sydney — fast checkouts, real payment gateways, proper inventory, and conversion-focused product pages from day one.
Active Web Solutions is Sydney based, and we build e-commerce stores for Australian businesses. Whether you are launching your first online store, replatforming from a tired old setup, or scaling a high-volume store that has outgrown its bones — we build e-commerce that actually sells.
We build on WooCommerce — the most widely supported and customisable e-commerce platform in Australia, sitting on top of WordPress. Every store we build comes with a fast mobile checkout, properly configured payment gateways (Stripe, Square, Afterpay, Apple Pay, PayPal — your call), real inventory management, conversion-focused product pages, and SEO baked in from day one. Sydney based — if you're anywhere from Penrith to Bondi we're happy to meet you in person, otherwise we work over email, video, and shared docs.
What We Build
Full WooCommerce builds — branded design, product catalogue, categories, search, filters, and a mobile-first checkout that actually converts.
Stripe, Square, PayPal, Afterpay, Zip, Apple Pay, Google Pay — properly configured with Australian bank settlements and clear fees.
Stock levels, variants, low-stock alerts, back-in-stock notifications, and integrations with Xero, MYOB, Cin7, and DEAR for higher-volume stores.
More than half your traffic is on mobile. We design checkout flows, product pages, and navigation that feel native on every device.
Cleaner product pages, simpler checkout, abandoned-cart flows, smarter upsells, trust signals, and better photography — all the things that lift conversion.
Premium Australian hosting, automated backups, SSL, PCI-compliant security, and updates — all part of the $49/month plan.
Why Active Web Solutions
Sydney based — real people on Australian time when something needs fixing. If you're nearby we're happy to meet in person, otherwise we work over email, video, and shared docs.
WooCommerce on WordPress — the most widely supported, customisable, and well-documented e-commerce platform in Australia. You own the platform, the data, and the customer relationships.
From $490 setup + $49/month — design, build, hosting, SSL, backups, SEO, and updates. No lock-in, cancel anytime. Larger stores quoted separately.
Most sites are live within 1-2 weeks of an approved brief. Larger or more complex builds take longer — we give you a realistic timeline up front.
Our Process
We meet for a quick coffee in Sydney if you're nearby, or jump on a call. We walk through your product catalogue, target order value, volume, payment preferences, and shipping setup — and configure WooCommerce around the right fit for your business.
You receive a clear written proposal covering scope, platform, integrations, timeline, and total cost — before a single line of code is written.
Our designers create stunning mockups of your store, product pages, and checkout — reflecting your brand. You review and approve before development begins.
We build the full store on a staging server — products loaded, payments configured, shipping set up, inventory linked — and walk you through every page so you can request any final changes.
We handle the go-live, SSL, DNS, indexing, and test transactions. Then we train you on the admin so you can manage orders, products, and stock yourself — with our Sydney support team standing by whenever you need us.
FAQ
We build on WooCommerce — it gives you full control, deep customisation, and ownership of the entire platform, sitting on top of WordPress which is the most widely supported CMS in Australia. We will recommend the right configuration for your products, volume, and team, and configure inventory, payments, and shipping properly from day one.
All the big ones — Stripe, Square, PayPal, Afterpay, Zip, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and direct bank transfer. We will configure whatever combination makes sense for your customers and your margins. Australian-based bank settlements are standard, and we will explain every transaction fee upfront so there are no surprises.
WooCommerce ships with strong inventory built in — stock levels, variants, low-stock alerts, and back-in-stock notifications. For higher-volume stores we integrate with Xero, MYOB, Cin7, DEAR, or other inventory systems so your stock, sales, and accounting stay in sync. We will set this up properly so you are not double-entering anything.
Smaller stores start from $490 setup + $49/month all-inclusive — design, build, hosting, security, SSL, backups, SEO, and updates (unlimited in month 1, then 5 per month thereafter). Larger catalogues, custom integrations (Xero, MYOB, ERP, custom shipping), or stores with complex variants are quoted separately. Every quote is fixed and clear before we start — no lock-in, cancel anytime.
Absolutely — this is a big part of what we do. We audit your checkout, product pages, mobile experience, page speed, and trust signals, then rebuild what is leaking revenue. Better photography, cleaner product pages, simpler checkout, faster mobile load, smarter upsells, and abandoned-cart flows can lift a store's conversion rate dramatically.
