Challenge

What was broken

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

What we shipped

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.

What we built

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.

The problem

Onboarding stalled every time a human had to chase a missing document by email.

What we built

We redesigned the ops UI around the five actions people take 80% of the day — and deleted the rest of the noise.

Stack

Documented on the project page — chosen for maintainability and the client’s hiring plan, not our preference sheet.

Timeline

16 weeks from kickoff to production, with weekly demos and a frozen launch checklist.
