Hire Shopify Developers with Folio3 enables flexibility in the functionalities of the process. We offer flexible engagement options including fixed pricing, value based, or time-based pricing. A fixed pricing plan should be chosen if your project goals are predetermined, and the development budget is tailored to fit the existing expenses. Moreover, it gives broader scope for improvement of the business.  

Value based pricing is based on the delivered quality instead of quantity and thus choosing this pricing model guarantees higher quality content. It is best suited for freelancers with many years of experience who will deliver efficiently.

Time-based pricing is the easiest model to deploy as it focuses on the hours of work put in rather than critically analyzing quality or the budget. It can be used by small firms starting out who have little experience in the market and want to choose the easiest and most convenient option.

Our expert Shopify developers follow an agile web development process to understand their clients better and set goals to minimize risks. Shopify developers break down the development process to build much faster solutions that effectively suit your business. The development process is as follows:

1) Research and planning: This inculcates the idea generation and screening and clearly defines the business goals.

2) Design (SEO inclusive): The developers and owners coordinate to bring forth an appropriate and catchy web design that includes SEOs in the form of keywords and other tools.

3) Development (including prototype testing): Production takes place and prototypes are tested in the market to gauge the consumer response.

4) Launch: If step 3 is successful then the website is launched in the market formally.

5) Maintenance: Once the website is launched, there is customer support available to attend to issues and carry out continuous updates. Maintenance enables constant improvement and development.

After careful consideration of your project requirements, we will assign a skilled and seasoned programmer to undertake your project under a renowned IT set-up. You will be required to read reviews and conduct interviews to choose a developer to your budget and liking. If the developer fails to meet your needs, then we will assist you in choosing a better fit for your business. We offer a delightful customer experience with a 100% success rate.

Besides having sound knowledge of the technology stack mentioned earlier, one of the first things to look at is Shopify certifications.
