What Codexlava builds for e-commerce
Codexlava customises Shopify and WordPress stores, builds custom storefronts in Next.js and Flask, and connects online shops to the systems behind them - Stripe, Xero, QuickBooks and HubSpot - for UK retailers. Every site is built for search, AI assistants and social sharing.

Things we plan around
What shapes a e-commerce build before any code is written.
Choose the platform for the business
Shopify suits most shops that want to sell rather than run servers; a custom build suits unusual products, pricing or workflows. Our guide compares them honestly.
Speed is revenue
Product pages are built light - compressed images, minimal script - because a slow page on a phone loses the sale before it loads. Our own site scores in the high 90s on Lighthouse mobile.
Search and AI shopping
Product and organisation schema, clean URLs and crawlable pages, so search engines and AI assistants can read the catalogue accurately.
Redesigns keep their rankings
A replatform or redesign ships with a full redirect map, so existing product URLs do not lose the traffic they have earned.
