A custom website and e-shop under one roof: what it all includes

In short

• “Under one roof” means design, development, content, hosting, integrations and marketing are handled by one team with one point of responsibility
• A complete website or e-shop isn't just design and code — it also includes SEO, analytics, inventory and accounting integration, payments and operation
• A company website starts from €1,500, a website with a CMS from €3,000 and a custom e-shop from €3,900 (excl. VAT)
• The biggest benefit is that nothing gets lost between vendors: the website, data and campaigns are designed from the start to work together

A company commissioning a new website or e-shop often ends up with five vendors. A designer creates the design, a developer builds it, another company handles hosting, yet another the accounting integration, and a marketing agency the campaigns. When something doesn't work, everyone points at someone else.

Development “under one roof” is the opposite approach: one team from the first consultation through launch and ongoing operation. In this article, we explain what complete delivery of a custom website and e-shop includes, how it works and what it costs.

What a complete website or e-shop includes

1. Analysis and planning

It starts with understanding the business, customers and goals — not picking colors. The result is a site structure, feature list, content plan and technical solution. For e-shops, also where products come from, how orders are processed and where invoices go.

2. Design and UX

Custom design based on your brand, designed mobile-first. If your brand isn't finished yet, it can also include a logo and brand guidelines.

3. Development

We build websites and e-shops on the Laravel and Symfony frameworks, with the frontend on modern technologies like Vue.js or React. The code is optimized for speed, security and further development — a website isn't finished on launch day, it grows with the company.

4. Content and SEO

Copy, photos, structured data (schema.org) and technical SEO from day one. Today not just for Google, but for AI assistants too — more in our article SEO, AEO and GEO: how to get into AI answers.

5. Integrations and automation

For an e-shop, integration with the payment gateway, carriers, inventory, accounting and invoicing, price comparison sites and product feeds. For a company website, connecting forms to the CRM, booking systems or internal applications.

6. Hosting, security and operation

Reliable hosting, SSL, backups, updates and monitoring. If something breaks, you know exactly who to call.

7. Analytics and marketing

Conversion tracking set up before launch, not after. And if you want, search and social media campaigns that bring customers to your site.

The benefits of a single vendor

• One point of responsibility. One team is accountable for the result. No passing problems back and forth between designer, developer and hosting provider.
• Faster delivery. No coordinating multiple companies, handing over materials or waiting on each other.
• Technology that works together. The website, e-shop, CRM, analytics and campaigns are designed from the start to exchange data.
• One contact. Your company deals with one project manager, not five vendors.
• Long-term care. Whoever built the website knows it best when it comes to development and maintenance.

When complete delivery makes sense

A single vendor is the biggest advantage on projects where several things come together: an e-shop with inventory and accounting integration, a website with a booking system, a company portal with a client zone, or a website that needs marketing running from day one. The more parts need to talk to each other, the more it pays to have one team build them.

If you already have vendors you're happy with, you don't need to change anything. We can also join just part of a project — for example as a technology partner taking over development and integrations.
