Shopify Audit · Durham
Shopify Audit in Durham
Auditing Shopify stores for Durham retailers, where the deliverable should be a ranked list of changes with an expected effect against each. An audit that produces sixty observations without saying which two matter gives you a document rather than a decision, and most of it will never be acted on.
Why this comes up
The problem
The last audit produced a sixty-item list with no priority, and nothing on it has been done.
What you get
What we deliver
- Findings grounded in your analytics rather than general best practice
- Each recommendation given an expected effect and a rough effort
- The list ranked, so the first three items are genuinely the first three
- Checkout and mobile behaviour examined, since this is where money is lost
- App and theme weight measured against actual page performance
- Findings that do not apply to your store excluded rather than included for length

Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.

Shopify Audit in Durham — common questions
- What makes an audit useful?
- Prioritisation. Identifying problems is the easy half, and a report that does not distinguish between a broken mobile checkout and an unoptimised image leaves the client to make that judgement — which is precisely what they were paying for.
- Why start from our analytics?
- Because generic recommendations ignore your traffic. Knowing that most visitors arrive on mobile from one channel and abandon at a particular step turns an audit from a checklist into an examination of what is actually happening in your store.
- How should recommendations be sized?
- With honest effort estimates alongside the expected benefit. A change worth a modest uplift for an hour of work should rank above one worth slightly more for a fortnight, and without both figures nobody can make that comparison sensibly.
- Do you always find something significant?
- Not always, and saying so is part of doing this properly. A well-run store may need nothing more than a few small corrections, and inventing severity to justify the engagement produces work that costs money and changes nothing measurable.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
