eCommerce stores built for Israeli sellers, optimized to convert.
Founder-led eCommerce builds for Israeli sellers - WooCommerce, Shopify, and custom Astro storefronts with Israeli payment gateways, shipping integrations, and bilingual storefronts. Built for SEO, optimized for conversion, ready to scale.
Founder-led eCommerce builds - we have seen every failure mode.
Shivuknet is a boutique agency run personally by Artur Kalandarov - 23 years of digital marketing experience and 12 years of video production. Every store we ship is scoped, built, and launched under direct founder oversight. No handoffs to junior staff, no offshore subcontracting.
Most eCommerce builds fail at three specific points: the payment integration the agency never tested at scale, the shipping logic that breaks on edge cases, and the SEO architecture that gets thrown together in the last week. We treat all three as first-class concerns from day one - not afterthoughts when the store is already built.
Israeli sellers face specific challenges: bilingual storefronts, local payment gateways, Israel Post quirks, tax invoice requirements. We have worked through each of them, and we plan for them from the first call.

Frequently asked
WooCommerce or Shopify?
Depends on your situation. WooCommerce: lower long-term cost, more flexible, but you manage hosting and updates. Shopify: higher monthly cost, less flexible, but easier to operate. We recommend based on your team and expected scale.
Do you offer maintenance?
Yes - WooCommerce maintenance from ₪450/mo, Shopify ongoing optimization from ₪1,200/mo. See /en/wordpress-maintenance/ for full details on the WooCommerce side.
Can you migrate my existing store?
Yes. From Wix to Shopify, from Magento to WooCommerce, from custom to Shopify. Migration projects are quoted separately based on data volume and integration complexity.
Do you handle product photography?
No - we partner with product photographers in Tel Aviv we can refer. We handle the technical side (image optimization, lazy loading, schema, CDN), not the studio shoot.
How long does a store take to build?
A standard store takes 21 to 35 working days from the moment the spec is approved. Larger catalogs and more integrations take longer. Tight deadline? We discuss what to ship in v1 and what to ship in v2.
Do you do dropshipping setups?
No. Dropshipping is a low-margin race to the bottom and we choose not to support that model. Real inventory or print-on-demand only.
