Custom E-Commerce Site Build

I need a full-featured e-commerce website built from the ground up. The core objective is to sell products online with a smooth, secure checkout and an easy-to-manage back end for inventory, orders, and promotions. I haven’t locked in a platform yet, so I’m open to your professional recommendation—whether that’s Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, or another solution that best fits scalability and cost.

Here’s what I expect:

• A modern, responsive design that reflects a clean brand aesthetic
• Product catalogue setup with search, filtering, and variant options
• Secure payment gateway integration and SSL configuration
• User account creation with order history and tracking
• Automated tax and shipping calculations
• Dashboard for me to add or update products, images, and pricing without coding
• Basic on-page SEO, performance optimisation, and launch support

Acceptance criteria will be a live, bug-free store hosted on my domain, fully tested on desktop and mobile, ready to start taking real orders. If you have a strong track record in e-commerce builds and can guide me on best practices from UX to conversion optimisation, let’s get started.
