FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cost of building an e-commerce website?

The cost of building an e-commerce site varies greatly depending on its scale and requirements. As a rough guide, a small to medium-sized Shopify site typically costs between 1 million and 5 million yen. If there are many design and functional customizations, the cost generally ranges from 5 million to 10 million yen. For large-scale builds using Shopify Plus, it's common for the cost to exceed 10 million yen, as these projects often involve not only the Shopify build itself but also inventory management, integration with core systems, and custom app development. We will propose the optimal solution based on your requirements, necessary functions, and budget after an initial consultation. Please contact us via the inquiry form to get started.

How long does it take from e-commerce site construction to launch?

For standard Shopify site construction, the typical timeframe from initial consultation to launch is approximately 3 to 6 months. This can vary depending on the complexity of the design, the extent of custom features, and the readiness of product data. Large-scale builds using Shopify Plus or migrations from existing sites may take 6 months or more. If you have schedule constraints, we can offer flexible proposals such as phased releases focusing on priority features, so please consult with us.

What sets you apart from other Shopify development agencies?

当社は日本で3社目となる「Shopify Experts」に認定された企業であり、現在は上位ランクの一つである「Shopify Premier Partner」としても認定されています。最大の特徴は、サイト構築だけでなく、運営代行・物流・コンサルティング・モール運営までEC事業全体をワンストップで支援できる体制です。また、自社でもEC事業を運営しているため、現場で得た実践的なノウハウを基にご提案ができる点も他社にはない強みです。

Can you also manage e-commerce marketplaces other than Shopify (e.g., Rakuten, Amazon)?

Yes, it is possible. In addition to supporting the operation of major malls such as Rakuten, Amazon, and Yahoo! Shopping, we also operate our own e-commerce business using these malls. We can propose multi-channel strategies that combine in-house e-commerce with malls, and we can also handle cross-platform data analysis. If you are considering mall expansion in parallel with building your own e-commerce site with Shopify, you can entrust us with everything from strategy formulation to daily operations.

Is it possible to migrate an existing e-commerce site to Shopify? What happens to the data?

はい、可能です。EC-CUBEやその他のカートシステムからShopifyへの移行実績が豊富にあり、商品データ・顧客データ・過去の注文履歴の移行にも対応しています。ただし、移行元のシステムやデータ構造によって、そのまま移せるデータと再設計が必要なデータがあるため、事前の調査が重要です。SEO評価を引き継ぐためのリダイレクト設計や、ポイントなどの引き継ぎ方針も含め、移行計画から実装までトータルでサポートいたします。

Can you also handle the operation and maintenance after the website launch?

はい、公開後の運営代行・保守・改善コンサルティングまで一貫してご支援可能です。商品登録やページ更新といった日常運用、受注処理、カスタマーサポート、物流代行に加え、データ分析に基づく改善提案や広告運用も対応しております。「制作して終わり」ではなく、長期的に伴走するパートナーとして継続契約をいただくお客様が多いのが特徴です。

What are the advantages of choosing Shopify for e-commerce operations in the age of AI?

ShopifyはAI時代のEC運営に最適化されたプラットフォームです。Shopify Magicによる商品説明文の自動生成、Sidekickによる店舗運営アシスタント、Universal Cart Protocol(UCP)対応によるエージェント型コマースへの備えなど、AIネイティブな機能が標準で利用できます。また、構造化データの自動出力やCore Web Vitalsへの最適化により、生成AI検索(GEO)にも強い構造を持っています。詳細はECブログ記事でも解説しております。

Please tell me about the process from inquiry to contract.

Please contact us via the inquiry form first. We will then conduct a web conference or in-person meeting to confirm your requirements, budget, and schedule, and then submit a proposal and estimate. Once you are satisfied with the contents, a contract will be formed and the project will commence after a kick-off meeting. Please note that we do not offer phone consultations; all meetings must be conducted online or in person. The duration varies depending on the scale, but typically it takes about 2 to 4 weeks from the initial consultation to the contract.
