You may not be familiar with our favorite Web Designer, Altura View, so here’s the pitch:

If you’ve got your site with Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, or BigCommerce, you already know the deal—limited customization, surprise fees, and customer support that’s… well, let’s just say hit or miss.

Altura View offers a better way. Here’s why switching to them puts you in the driver’s seat:

1. Clear, Honest Pricing—No Surprise Fees
Ever tried to find the real cost of Shopify? Yeah, it’s buried under layers of “small print” and surprise add-ons. With Altura View, what you see is what you pay. Prices are front and center, and their subscription covers everything you actually need.

🚨 Oh, and no extra transaction fees. Unlike Shopify and Squarespace, they don’t skim off your sales. The only fees you pay are to your payment processor of choice (like PayPal or Google Pay)—no sneaky cuts from AV.

2. Real Support from a U.S.-Based Expert
Ever been stuck on hold for hours or dealing with a chatbot that just… doesn’t get it? With Altura View, you get direct access to a WordPress pro—fluent in English, actually helpful, and focused on your business. No robots, no generic reps, just real support.

3. Full Customization & Advanced Features
Think Shopify’s got all the features you need? Until you actually need something niche, and suddenly you’re out of luck. We can integrate everything from:
✅ Custom ordering systems
✅ Unique promo code functionality
✅ Specialized shipping solutions and more!

Need something super specific? Just ask. They build it.

And unlike Shopify or Wix, you get full WordPress freedom—no boxed-in templates, no limits on how your site grows.

4. Fully Managed, So You Can Focus on Your Business
Altura View handles the hosting, performance, and updates*, so you don’t have to stress over the tech side. Want to manage your own inventory? They’ll teach you how. Need them to do it for you? That’s an option, too.

(*Typically for these services, neither basic platforms like Squarespace etc. nor experts like Altura View offer inventory management, but if you need extra hands, AV’s hourly rate is $75/hr—way lower than Shopify or Wix’s developer rates of $100+ an hour.)



5. Flexible Plans That Grow With You
Once you’ve got the hang of things, why keep paying for full-service? After a year on any subscription with them, you can switch to a $15/month plan that keeps your hosting + the option for discounted maintenance services. More control, less cost.

6. Always Improving, Always Innovating
Altura View stays on top of the latest tools, features, and updates in the WordPress ecosystem, so your site never falls behind. And unlike other platforms, they only recommend upgrades that actually benefit you—no kickbacks, no corporate self-interest, just what works best for your business.

7. Hassle-Free Rebuild & Training
Moving from Shopify or Wix? Unfortunately, those kinds of platforms don’t make it easy—you can’t just “transfer” your site. But no worries, they handle the full rebuild, keeping your design, data, and SEO in top shape.

Pssssst–you guessed it, they’re our favorite because they built this blog! So this is all basically a glowing customer review. Plus, they’ll give you the tools and guidance to confidently manage your site when you want to. What other web design and maintenance service gives you the tools to become self-reliant?

Bottom Line: Altura View Gives You More Control Without the Stress
– No transaction fees skimming off your profits
– A site that actually works the way you want
– Expert help when you need it (and none when you don’t)
– Clear pricing, no hidden costs, and flexible plans
Tired of feeling boxed in by Shopify, Wix, or another limited template? Have Altura View build something better—your way.
