BigCommerce Theme Development

A custom theme provides a unique brand experience that sets you apart from the competition. More importantly, it is built specifically for your business goals, with a user journey optimized for your customers and a codebase streamlined for maximum speed and performance.

Our process is collaborative and user-focused. It starts with a strategy and UX design phase to map the customer journey, followed by UI design to create a stunning visual brand experience. Finally, our developers use the Stencil framework to build a fast, responsive, and manageable theme.

Yes, absolutely. A core part of our development process is creating custom, reusable Page Builder widgets. This gives your team the power to easily add, edit, and reorder content on your homepage and other key pages using BigCommerce's intuitive drag-and-drop interface.

Performance is a top priority. Unlike many bloated marketplace themes, we build your custom theme with clean, efficient code. We focus on advanced techniques like image optimization and minimizing code requests to ensure the fastest possible load times and excellent scores on Google's Core Web Vitals.

Stencil is BigCommerce's modern theme development framework. It's important because it allows us to build fast, dynamic, and feature-rich storefronts. Using Stencil, we can create a professional development workflow and build the flexible Page Builder components that make your site easy to manage.

We follow a "mobile-first" design and development approach. This means we design the experience for the smartphone screen first and then adapt it for larger screens like tablets and desktops. This ensures your site is perfectly optimized for the majority of your customers.

A custom theme has a significant positive impact on SEO. The clean code and fast loading speeds directly address major ranking factors. We also have full control over the code structure, allowing us to implement SEO best practices for headings, structured data, and internal linking far more effectively than a generic theme.
