What is a Shopify 2.0 upgrade?

As mentioned above, Shopify 2.0 is the better integrated successor to the original Shopify Online Store. A lot of work has been done to improve performance metrics and to make it much easier to use in partnership with the Shopify App Store to build out the functionality you need while retaining the levels performance your customers expect.

Shopify 2.0 upgrading is simply the migration of your site from one code-base to another and making sure your theme and page templates migrate seamlessly to the new architecture, allowing you to take full advantage of the improvements that have been made (not just since Open Store was released, but also in the interim period since the launch of 2.0).

Site Speed Development

Over the last few years, Google has been nudging webmasters to improve site speed - and so far they’ve done that with the carrot of a minor boost to rankings (though they won’t say much - thanks Google - it is likely to be a ‘deciding factor if all other things are equal’), but while a ranking bump is all well and good - the positive impact it has on conversion rates is far more important.

Shopify Checkout Customisation

While Shopify sites have always been customisable to an extent, there was a time in the pretty recent past when a Shopify site was more recognisably Shopify than any particular brand. The last area where that was the case was the checkout - but, for Shopify Plus customers, it doesn’t have to be anymore! Brands can now customise their checkout to better represent their brand and better suit their needs.

Inhousing Functionality

During the lifespan of a Shopify site, there’ll be times when growing and scaling a brand leads to you outgrowing some of the apps that were essential during your formative years. Whether that’s because it isn’t capable of scaling with you, or the need for other, more important features are beginning to cause performance issues, inhousing functionality can be the answer.

UX & UI Development

From site navigation to all the fun things you can do with buttons, user experience and user interface development plays a vital role in how every single customer experiences your website (and interacts with it, to be fair). Providing the best customer experience isn’t just a ‘nice-to-have’, it can be the difference between a sale and an abandoned basket.
