FAQs on Headless Ecommerce Development Services
What is the best headless frontend framework for Ecommerce?
What are the advantages of headless Ecommerce?
Key benefits include: faster page loads (40%+ conversion lift), omnichannel flexibility, 3x faster releases, better developer experience, future-proof architecture, improved SEO through SSR/ISR, easier A/B testing, and reduced technical debt. You also gain platform independence and can innovate frontend without backend constraints.
How much does it cost to build headless development?
Costs vary by complexity: Simple implementations start at $50k-$80k (12-16 weeks). Mid-complexity projects range $80k-$150k (16-24 weeks). Enterprise solutions cost $150k-$500k+ (6-12 months). Factors include platform choice, custom features, integrations, design complexity, and team augmentation needs.
How is headless commerce different from traditional Ecommerce platforms?
Traditional platforms couple frontend and backend, limiting flexibility. Headless decouples them via APIs, enabling: independent scaling, technology choice freedom, omnichannel delivery, faster frontend updates, better performance, and easier experimentation. You trade immediate simplicity for long-term flexibility and control.
What is the typical timeline for headless Ecommerce implementation?
Timelines depend on scope: MVP launches in 12-16 weeks. Full-featured stores need 20-28 weeks. Complex B2B/marketplace projects take 6-12 months. Phased approach recommended: launch core commerce first, then add features incrementally.
Do I need to rebuild everything for headless commerce?
No. We use strangler pattern for gradual migration. Start with high-impact pages (PDP, PLP, homepage), keep legacy checkout initially, then migrate progressively. Zero-downtime approach maintains business continuity throughout transformation.
How do you ensure SEO performance in headless implementations?
We implement SSR/ISR for crawlable content, maintain URL parity with redirects, preserve structured data, optimize Core Web Vitals, implement prerendering where needed, and ensure proper canonical tags. Regular technical SEO audits throughout development.
What ongoing support do you provide after launch?
30 days free support includes bug fixes, minor enhancements, and 24/7 critical response. Extended support available via retainer covering: performance optimization, feature development, security updates, platform upgrades, and strategic consulting.
