Selected work
Stores I've built and run
Updated October 2026
Saudi Arabia and the UAE
Selling in the Gulf?
Arabic that reads right to left, couriers Shopify doesn't ship with, and an address the courier can find.
Arabic that reads right to left
The store flips, not just the words: direction set in the theme, no English leaking through.
How RTL works on ShopifySaudi couriers connected
Waybill, collection and label from the paid order; tracking back to the customer.
Which couriers work with ShopifyA short address at checkout
Checkout Toolkit KSA, my app, asks for the national short address so couriers deliver first time.

New store
Need a new store, or a rebuild?
Designed and built by one person, on a theme your team can run.
- Design and code in one place, so nothing is lost between them
- Sections your team can edit on their own
- Checked on the live store at launch, with support after
Speed and sales
Store slow, or losing sales?
Most stores don't need a redesign. They need the few things costing sales fixed first.
- Apps and scripts that slow every page down
- Friction on product pages, the cart and checkout
- A list of fixes ranked by impact, so you know what to do first
A/B testing
Not sure which change will help?
Test the change on real traffic, then roll out the version that sold more.
- Test ideas ranked by likely impact and effort
- Variants built in your theme, so they match the live store
- An honest read of the result, including when it's a draw
Apps and integrations
Shopify can't do what you need?
When the theme and the App Store run out, I build it.
- Custom apps for a single store
- Courier, ERP and loyalty integrations
- Apps of my own on the Shopify App Store
Core Web Vitals
Fast enough to pass Google's Core Web Vitals.
Fewer apps, a lighter theme and images sized for the page. Measured, not assumed.
LCP · Largest Contentful Paint
under 2.5 s. The hero image loads first, not last.
INP · Interaction to Next Paint
under 200 ms. App scripts that block taps come out of the theme.
CLS · Cumulative Layout Shift
under 0.1. Images, banners and fonts get their space before they load.

This site, built the way I build stores.
moved by meMoving to Shopify
Bring the whole store, not just the products.
Redirects, customer accounts and order history decide a migration. All of it moves to a preview store first.
Nothing dropped
1,261 metafields across 78 products for Balqees, no dropped references.
Rankings kept
A 301 for every old URL, sitemap submitted, Search Console watched.
Switch without downtime
Checked on a preview store, switched when it's ready.

Apps
Apps I've built
How working together goes
Four steps, from the first call to launch.
- 01
Call
A short call to understand the store, the goal and the deadline.
- 02
Plan
A written scope: what I'll build, in what order, and what I need from you.
- 03
Build
Work ships in small steps on a preview theme, so you see progress as it happens.
- 04
Launch
Go live, check everything on the live store, and hand over — with support after launch.
Why work with me
One developer, from the first call to launch.
You talk to the person writing the code
No account manager. The person you brief builds it.
A written scope and a fixed price
What I'll do, in what order, and what it costs, before any build.
Work you can see as it happens
Small steps on a preview theme, not one big reveal.
Support after launch
Live, checked on the live store, and there for the weeks after.

What clients say
Uzáir took our brand from a rough idea to a site that actually feels like Balqees. He was thoughtful about every detail and easy to work with from start to finish.
Salem, Balqees We needed a site that could keep up with how fast Zerolifestyle moves. Uzáir delivered exactly that — clean, fast, and built the way we actually work.
Daniyal, Zerolifestyle Versusforher's new site captures the brand better than we imagined. Uzáir paid attention to the small interactions that make the whole experience feel premium.
Saim, Versusforher Beyond the design, Uzáir genuinely cared about how the store performed for our customers. Makeupcity's site feels sharper and runs noticeably smoother now.
Mohsin, Makeupcity Working with Uzáir was straightforward — clear communication, solid execution, and a final result that fit Imtiaz Super Market's brand perfectly.

Questions
How much does a Shopify project cost?
It depends on the scope, so every job gets a fixed price after a short call and a written scope. Small jobs like a speed fix, one section or a single integration are quoted the same way. If you'd rather start small, the audit has a fixed price.
Are you an agency?
No. I'm an independent developer, so you work directly with me from the first call to launch. Nothing is subcontracted without telling you.
Do you work with brands outside Pakistan?
Yes. Most of my work is for brands in the UK, the UAE and Saudi Arabia as well as Pakistan, all done remotely. My working day in Karachi overlaps fully with the Gulf and for the afternoon with the UK.
Can you build something Shopify doesn't do out of the box?
Yes. I build custom apps for single stores and integrations with couriers, ERPs and loyalty platforms. Collection Toolkit, my own app, is live on the Shopify App Store, and Checkout Toolkit KSA is in App Store review.
How do we start?
Book a 30-minute call, or send a WhatsApp message with your store's URL and what you want changed. I reply within one business day, and if it's a fit you get a written scope with a fixed price.
