Challenge
ShopOrbit's Shopify theme blocked SEO experiments, mobile LCP sat in the red, and the growth team could not ship category content without developer tickets.
Solution
Headless React storefront on Shopify Plus backend, Algolia search, category hub pages tied to content pillars, and Cloudflare edge caching — organic and paid on one instrumented funnel.
Hana Al-Rashid, Head of Growth at ShopOrbit, was spending on ads while organic revenue flatlined. The Shopify theme looked fine but could not expose crawlable category hubs, structured data, or mobile LCP under 4 seconds.
Shriram IT Ventures moved ShopOrbit to a headless React frontend on Shopify Plus — keeping checkout and catalog ops familiar while unlocking SEO architecture. Category hub pages tied to content pillars. Algolia powered search; Cloudflare handled edge caching.
Organic revenue lifted 52% in six months. Checkout conversion rose 18%. Mobile PSI hit 95+. Hana\'s team could iterate category content weekly without waiting on theme developers.
Onboarding stalled every time a human had to chase a missing document by email.
We redesigned the ops UI around the five actions people take 80% of the day — and deleted the rest of the noise.
Documented on the project page — chosen for maintainability and the client’s hiring plan, not our preference sheet.
16 weeks from kickoff to production, with weekly demos and a frozen launch checklist.
Outcomes are listed above. We only publish numbers the client signed off for public use.
