On a real store, only merchant-verified facts become filter values. Missing data stays a merchandising question.

## Technical product-finding project

-   A decision map for one commercially important product category.
-   Useful attributes and filters based on merchant-verified product facts.
-   A buying guide and agreed product-page changes in your current theme.
-   Mobile and keyboard checks, measurement definitions and a merchandising handover.

Pricing

## Website optimization from US$4,000 per month

Our published website optimization work (search, conversion and speed) starts at US$4,000 per month, typically US$4,000 to US$10,000. A single-category product-finding project is quoted after we review the category, theme and product data. Catalog cleanup, custom functionality and additional categories are priced separately before work begins.

### One category your merchandiser knows

-   Your store has an existing category with meaningful visits and orders.
-   A merchandiser can confirm the product specifications and buying criteria.
-   Theme permissions and the cost of any catalog cleanup can be established.

### Extra categories and catalog cleanup

-   A whole-store rebuild or an unbounded catalog cleanup.
-   Unverified compatibility, safety or product claims.

Product choice checklist

Illustrative walkthrough

## One shopper, one technical category

Open each step to see what the shopper needs and where the category helps or stalls.

1.  Picks a regionFilter exists
    
    Region is a verified product attribute, so the category narrows to the products that cover it.
    
2.  Picks an activityNo filter
    
    Activity is written into descriptions but never stored as an attribute, so the shopper opens products one by one. This is usually the first gap we close.
    
3.  Checks format and fitMerchant check
    
    Only facts your merchandiser confirms become filter values. Unverified compatibility stays off the page.
    
4.  Compares two productsClear
    
    Both product pages state the difference in plain words, in the same place.
    
5.  Adds to cartDone
    
    A few clear choices replace a scroll through every listing.
    

Illustrative example for a fictional outdoor catalog. Native Shopify filters come first; custom work only where they fall short.

## Making product facts useful

1.  ### Understand the choice
    
    Identify the questions shoppers need answered before they can choose.
    
2.  ### Use the data well
    
    Map verified attributes to useful filters and clear product comparisons.
    
3.  ### Check the buying path
    
    Test the implementation, document limits and agree how its effect will be observed.

## Discuss your category

Use a 30-minute consultation to look at the category that loses shoppers, what they need to know to choose and whether a bounded project is worth doing. No store access is needed to book.

## Category questions

Do we need a new theme?

Usually the first step is to assess the current theme and native Shopify features. A rebuild is a separate decision.

Can you guarantee more sales?

No. We can define and test a better buying path, then observe results with traffic, seasonality and other changes made clear.
