About us

We started The Pixel Build because merchants kept getting handed pretty themes nobody had tested. So we do both halves: the craft and the numbers. Every build ships with analytics wired up, a testing roadmap, and someone you can message directly.

Nine years in, we’ve launched, migrated and rescued more than 200 Shopify and Shopify Plus stores across fashion, beauty, supplements and home.

What we do

Custom themes and section-based page builders your marketing team can actually use. Figma to Liquid, no page-builder bloat, Core Web Vitals in the green before we hand over.

Research, heatmaps and a running A/B test programme on PDP, cart and checkout. You get a monthly readout of what we tested, what won, and what we're trying next.

On-model and on-set imagery generated and retouched with AI, plus titles, bullets and descriptions written for search. Consistent across your whole catalogue, delivered in days rather than months.

Paid social and search that respects your margin, plus Klaviyo flows for welcome, browse, cart and post-purchase. One dashboard, blended numbers, honest attribution.

WooCommerce, Magento or BigCommerce to Shopify with URLs and SEO intact. Custom apps, ERP and 3PL integrations, subscriptions, B2B and multi-currency setups.

A retained team for launches, bug fixes, speed work and peak-season readiness. Shared Slack channel, same-day responses, no ticket queue.
Process

No black box, no month of silence between kick-off and reveal. Four steps, and you can see the work at every one of them.

  1. Teardown and kick-off

    We go through your store, your analytics and your last six months of numbers before anyone opens Figma. You leave the first call with a written audit and a ranked roadmap.

    Audit + ranked roadmap
  2. Design and build

    Figma to Liquid by hand — custom sections your marketing team can edit, no page-builder bloat, Core Web Vitals green before handover. Migrations keep URLs and SEO intact.

    Staged, reviewable theme
  3. Launch and instrument

    We ship, wire up analytics and events properly, and take a clean baseline. The written handover and the shared channel start here, not once the invoice clears.

    Live store + baseline
  4. Test, market and scale

    A running A/B programme on PDP, cart and checkout, AI listing images and copy across the catalogue, and paid and lifecycle work that respects your margin.

Why us

Most agencies go quiet at launch. The reasons people keep working with us are the unglamorous ones — the same faces, visible work, dates that hold.

  • 01

    Certified Shopify developers

    Shopify Plus partners who write the theme code themselves. No white-label subcontractors, no handing your store to whoever happens to be free that week.

  • 02

    Quality you can check

    Every build ships with analytics wired up, a testing roadmap and a written handover — so you can see what changed, why it changed, and what it did to the numbers.

  • 03

    On time, or you hear it first

    Fixed scope, fixed dates, and a shared channel where you get the developer rather than an account manager. If a date is going to slip, you hear it from us before it does.

Kind words

They rebuilt our PDP, told us honestly which of our ideas wouldn't work, and then proved it with a test. Revenue per visitor is up 24% and I finally trust our numbers.

FAQ

Something else on your mind? Ask us on the call — no pitch deck, just a conversation about your store.

Book a discovery call

Yes — Shopify and Shopify Plus only. Going deep on one platform is why we can move fast and spot problems early.

Six to ten weeks for most stores, depending on catalogue size and integrations. Migrations with clean data have gone live in four.

Projects typically start around $18k; retained CRO and technical care start at $4k a month. We'll give you a real number after the first call, not a range.

We start from your real product photography, so colour, texture and proportions stay accurate. Every image is reviewed by a human before it reaches your store.

The people doing the work. No account managers relaying messages — you get the developer, the designer and the strategist in one shared channel.

Thirty minutes, no obligation. Tell us where the store is stuck and we’ll tell you honestly whether we’re the right team for it.
