    Who this is for

    • UK merchants expanding into the EU, US or ROW.
    • Brands already selling internationally but on messy sub-stores that need consolidating onto Shopify Markets.
    • Stores where organic traffic is a growth channel and hreflang, canonicals and localised content need to be right.
    • Merchants moving from third-party translation apps to Shopify's native translation setup.
    • Teams launching a second or third market and want a proven playbook rather than a bespoke build.

    Scope

    What's included

    • Shopify Markets strategy: which markets, which domains, which languages
    • Domain and subfolder structure aligned with international SEO best practice
    • hreflang, canonical and sitemap setup across all locales
    • Native Shopify translation setup (Translate & Adapt or equivalent)
    • Human-reviewed AI translation workflow for products, collections and content
    • Currency, pricing and rounding rules per market
    • Payment method routing and local checkout optimisation
    • Shipping zone and duty (DDP/DDU) configuration
    • App audit: identifying apps that break with Markets and safe alternatives
    • Multilingual SEO: localised meta, structured data and internal linking
    • Full QA matrix: language × market × device
    • Launch checklist and post-launch monitoring for 30 days

    Process

    How we deliver

    Step 01

    Discovery & market strategy

    We define target markets, languages, domains and success metrics. Output is a written expansion plan you sign off before build.

    Step 02

    Technical configuration

    Shopify Markets, domains, translations, currencies, payments and shipping configured against the plan.

    Step 03

    SEO & content localisation

    hreflang, canonicals, sitemaps, structured data and localised meta content set up so search engines index each market cleanly.

    Step 04

    QA & launch

    Full cross-market QA, then a phased launch with monitoring on organic traffic, rankings and conversion.
