Shopify CRO
Octomize runs Shopify conversion rate optimization for stores that pay for their traffic on Google and Meta. We remove friction on product pages, collections, the cart and the parts of checkout your Shopify plan lets you change, then test the bigger ideas. We judge each change by revenue per visitor and margin, so a discount that lifts conversion rate and cuts profit counts as a loss.
What's included
A shopper who clicks a Shopping ad lands on one product page and decides there. On a phone they need the price, the variant they searched for, a delivery date and the returns policy before they scroll. Traffic from Performance Max and Meta often lands on collections instead, where weak filters and a default sort bury the products you paid to promote. In the cart, a shipping cost that appears for the first time sends people back to Google to compare.
Checkout has limits. Every Shopify plan from Basic up lets you brand the checkout and add apps to the thank you and order status pages, but apps that change the information, shipping and payment steps need Shopify Plus (Shopify Help Center). On most stores we fix the product page and cart first, since you control those in full.
Google measures page experience with three Core Web Vitals: loading (LCP), responsiveness (INP) and layout stability (CLS) (web.dev). On Shopify stores we check app scripts and oversized theme images first. Our post on landing page speed and Core Web Vitals covers the fixes, and the CRO mistakes we see most lists what to check first.
We read every test on revenue per visitor and gross margin. For landing pages outside the store, see our landing page and CRO service.
Online stores selling in the United States, the United Kingdom and the EU. Most run on Shopify; we also work on WooCommerce, BigCommerce and custom builds.
How it works
We open the store on a phone from your top Shopping listings and Meta ads, then follow the GA4 funnel from product view to purchase and mark where shoppers leave.
We fix slow pages, variant selectors that fail on mobile and shipping costs that appear only at checkout without waiting for a test. A broken button costs orders today.
Offers, bundles, free-shipping thresholds and page layout go into tests sized to your traffic. On a smaller store we test fewer, larger changes.
We compare revenue per visitor and margin per visitor before and after. We roll back changes that raise orders and lower the money you keep.
What we do: the system
Before we touch an account, we set the plan: which channels, what budget, what a lead or a sale is worth to you, and what we test first.
Most paid traffic is lost on the page, not in the ad. We build or rework the page around one offer and one action, then keep improving it on real visitor behavior.
If the numbers are wrong, every optimization is a guess. We set up tracking that holds up against ad blockers and cookie limits, and send real outcomes back to the ad platforms.
With the plan, the page and the tracking in place, we build the campaigns and optimize them every week on real data.
You see sales, profit and lead quality, the numbers your business runs on, not clicks and impressions.
Once the system runs, the data shows where else you can grow. We bring you the ideas.

FAQ
Partly. On every plan from Basic up you can brand the checkout and add apps to the thank you and order status pages. Apps that change the information, shipping and payment steps need Shopify Plus. We work inside what your plan allows and tell you when Plus would pay for itself.
We test fewer, bigger changes, such as a new offer or a rebuilt product page, because small tweaks need more traffic than you have to show a reliable difference. We ship clear fixes without a test and compare periods with ad spend and season in mind.
Conversion rate ignores order value and margin. Free shipping on every order can raise conversion rate and still lower what you keep. Revenue per visitor, and margin per visitor when we have cost data, shows whether a change made you money.
They can. Each app that loads scripts on the storefront adds work for the shopper's browser, and apps you removed can leave code in the theme. We check what each app loads against what it earns before cutting anything.
Yes. The method carries over to WooCommerce, BigCommerce and custom stores. WooCommerce gives you full control of checkout, along with more plugins that can slow it down.
