FAQs
Do we need a headless CMS?
Not always. For editorial depth, we pair Shopify with Sanity/Contentful/Strapi or use Astro MDX collections.
Will performance dip with apps?
We avoid blocking scripts, move pixels server-side, and lazy-load optional widgets behind consent.
How fast can we migrate?
Phased rollouts protect revenue. We launch core PLP/PDP first, then content/merch blocks.
Can you support multi-region stores?
Yes—markets, currencies, localized catalogs, and hreflang rules across subpaths or domains.
