Our Story
Senior Specialists, Not a Production Line
AskTheDev was built on a simple idea: that brands deserve a technical partner who genuinely understands both the code and the commerce behind a successful online store. We bring together experienced developers, designers, and marketers under one roof, with the hands-on expertise to build, rebuild, and scale stores that perform.
We build, rebuild, and scale stores for ambitious brands across the UK and beyond, from first-time founders taking their products online to established retailers moving onto Shopify Plus. As an official Shopify Partner, we also bring hands-on expertise in WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, and headless commerce.
Being a focused, senior team is our advantage. The people you meet are the people who do the work. There are no junior hand-offs and no off-the-shelf templates dressed up as bespoke. Every project is led by senior specialists who care about your results as much as you do, and who are still there long after launch to help you grow.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What does AskTheDev do?
AskTheDev is a full-service digital and ecommerce agency. We design, build, and grow online stores and websites across Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, and WordPress, alongside bespoke headless builds. We also run the marketing that fills them, including SEO, PPC, email and SMS with Klaviyo, and conversion rate optimisation.
Which ecommerce platforms do you specialise in?
Our core expertise is Shopify and Shopify Plus, where we are an official Shopify Partner. We also have deep, hands-on experience with WooCommerce, Magento (Adobe Commerce), BigCommerce, and WordPress, plus headless and bespoke builds. We recommend the platform that fits your business rather than the one that suits us.
Are you a certified Shopify Partner?
Yes. AskTheDev is an official Shopify Partner, and our team brings hands-on experience launching, migrating, and scaling Shopify and Shopify Plus stores for brands of every size.
Where is AskTheDev based and who do you work with?
We are a UK-based agency and work with ambitious brands across the United Kingdom and internationally. Because our work is delivered remotely and collaboratively, we partner with clients wherever they are, from early-stage startups to established multi-store retailers.
Can you migrate my existing store to a new platform?
Absolutely. Platform migrations are one of our specialisms. We move stores to and from Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, and BigCommerce while protecting your SEO rankings, preserving URL structure with proper redirects, and minimising downtime.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope. A focused landing page or theme customisation can take a couple of weeks, a full custom store build typically runs six to twelve weeks, and complex migrations or Shopify Plus builds can take longer. We give you a clear timeline and milestones before any work begins.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?
Yes. Launch is the start, not the finish. We offer retained support, maintenance, and growth partnerships that cover everything from technical fixes and performance tuning to ongoing CRO, marketing, and new feature development.
