Who this is for?

Signs You Need A Shopify Performance Audit

Mobile Scores Are Red

Desktop looks fine, but mobile PageSpeed sits in the 20s and that’s where most of your traffic actually shops.

Shoppers Leave Before Load

Analytics shows high exit rates on landing, meaning people are paying to arrive and leaving before they see anything.

Apps Are Piling Up

Reviews, popups, upsells and trackers each added a script, and nothing was ever removed after the trial ended.

Images Load Heavy

Full-size hero files and unoptimised product media are pushing page weight far past what a fast store should carry.

Cart Feels Sluggish

Adding to cart, opening the drawer, and moving to checkout all lag, and that friction lands right before payment.

Sales Days Slow You Down

Traffic spikes during launches and campaigns turn an already slow store into a stalled one, exactly when it costs most.

what’s included?

Shopify Site Speed Optimization Solutions We Offer

Every engagement is scoped around your store, not a fixed package. Here’s the full range of what we fix. Need a full rebuild instead of a tune-up? See our development service.

Core Web Vitals Optimization

LCP, INP and CLS brought into passing range on real device data, not just lab scores.

Theme Code Refactor

Bloated Liquid, duplicate sections and legacy code cleaned out of your existing theme.

App Audit & Removal

We map every app to its script weight, then remove or replace what isn’t earning its cost.

Image & Media Pipeline

Responsive sizing, next-gen formats and proper lazy loading across every template.

JavaScript & Script Control

Third-party tags deferred, bundled or removed so they stop blocking your first paint.

Font & CSS Delivery

Critical CSS inlined, unused rules stripped, and fonts preloaded to stop layout shift.

Mobile Performance Tuning

Optimised for mid-range phones on real networks, where the majority of your sessions happen.

Cart & Checkout Speed

Faster add-to-cart, drawer and checkout transitions so friction disappears near the payment step.

Collection & Search Speed

Filtering, pagination and search results tuned to respond instantly on large catalogs.

Ongoing Speed Monitoring

Monthly checks and alerts so a new app or campaign asset never quietly undoes the work.

Cut Your Store Loading Time To Under Two Seconds

We fix speed at the code level, theme refactoring, script control and media pipelines, not by installing another optimizer that adds weight of its own. Built for teams whose traffic is already there and whose store is losing it on load.

Why Brands Choose Us For Shopify Performance Optimization

Here’s what changes when a store is engineered for performance instead of patched with another app.

Shopify-Only Engineers

We work exclusively inside Shopify and Shopify Plus themes, so fixes are native to the platform and safe to maintain.

Field Data, Not Lab Scores

We optimise against real user metrics from your own traffic, because a perfect lab score with slow shoppers changes nothing.

Tied To Conversion

Every change is measured against conversion rate and bounce, so speed work is judged on revenue, not just milliseconds.

How we work?

Our Shopify Speed Optimization Process

A six-step system that takes a store from audit to verified results with nothing left to guesswork, so you always know what’s next and why.

STEP 01

Shopify performance audit

We benchmark every key template on real devices, capture field data, and identify exactly what is costing you load time today.

Week 1

STEP 02

Fix plan and priorities

Findings are ranked by impact against effort, so the heaviest wins land first and you see movement before the work is finished.

Week 1

STEP 03

App and script cleanup

Unused apps are removed, third-party tags are deferred or replaced, and the render-blocking chain is cut back to essentials.

Week 1–2

STEP 04

Code and media optimization

Theme code is refactored, critical CSS is inlined, fonts are preloaded, and images move to a responsive, next-gen pipeline.

Day 3–4

STEP 05

Testing and verification

Every template is retested across devices, browsers and network speeds to confirm gains are real and nothing broke on the way.

Day 4–5

STEP 06

Launch and monitoring

Changes go live with your theme backed up, then we monitor scores and conversion so new apps or assets never undo the work.

Day 5

FAQs

frequently asked questions

Still curious? Ask us directly — we reply within 12 hours, and it’s an engineer who answers.

How much faster will my store actually get?

It depends on where you’re starting. Most stores we take on sit between 20 and 45 on mobile and land in the 70–90 range afterwards, with LCP under 2.5 seconds. We give you a specific projected range after the audit, before you commit to anything.

Do you use a speed optimization app?

No. Speed apps add another script to a store that already has too many. Every fix we make is at the theme and code level, so the improvement stays after we’re gone and nothing depends on a monthly subscription.

Will optimization break my theme or apps?

We duplicate your theme and work on the copy, test every template across devices and browsers, and only publish once everything is verified. Any app we recommend removing is discussed with you first, never quietly deleted.

How long does the work take?

Three weeks for a typical store: one week for audit and cleanup, one for code and media work, one for testing and launch. Larger catalogs and heavily customised themes can run four to five weeks, and we’ll say so upfront.

Does speed really affect conversion rate?

Yes, most clearly on mobile and on paid traffic, where visitors arrive with low patience and no loyalty. We track conversion rate and bounce alongside speed metrics so you can see the commercial result, not just the score.

What does Shopify speed optimization cost?

Most projects fall between $3k and $12k depending on template count, catalog size and how customised the theme is. You get a fixed scope and a fixed number in writing before work starts — no hourly billing surprises.

Can you optimise a custom or headless build?

Yes. We work across standard themes, heavily customised builds and headless Shopify storefronts. Headless projects are scoped separately since the fixes live in the frontend framework rather than in Liquid.

Will the results last after you finish?

The code-level work holds. What erodes scores over time is new apps, new tracking tags and unoptimised campaign images. Our monitoring retainer catches those within days instead of months.

What do you need from us to start?

Collaborator access to your store, access to your analytics, and a list of apps you consider non-negotiable. That’s enough for us to run the audit and come back with a plan.
