Client stores
Two Shopify stores we look after
Both stores belong to Sensortags Inc., a Terre Haute company that has sold retail security equipment since 1991. We did the work below on the live stores, between their orders, in September and October 2026.

Retail security · Sensortags.com
Sensortags.com
A store that had been on Shopify for years and had drifted: a generic theme, product names only an insider could read, a blog that had lost its history, and no way to tell where orders came from.
- Home, contact and free-quote pages rebuilt in the theme, with the phone number and hours on the first screen
- 62 product titles rewritten in plain words, with a compatibility badge and the pack size shown on every card
- Search titles and descriptions written for 55 products, 7 collections and 9 pages, plus a retail security buyer’s guide
- Landing pages for shoe stores, liquor stores and pharmacies, built from one template and a product tag
- 39 blog posts going back to 2006, deleted in a past migration, recovered from the Internet Archive and republished on their original dates
- 171 redirects, so no old link from a newsletter, a search result or a supplier page lands on an error page
- Google Analytics records purchases, quote requests and phone taps; the store is listed in Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and the Microsoft shopping feed
As of October 12, 2026, the store is on the first page of Google for “security tags” and “retail security systems”, and the first result for “retail anti theft devices”.

Retail fixtures · LockingHooks.com
LockingHooks.com
A small store on an old paid theme, with dead video embeds, a decade of unused pages and six apps nobody had opened in years. Rebuilt on Shopify’s own Dawn theme and live since October 1, 2026.
- A new theme built from source, with a “find your fit” path from hook size to the right lock and key
- Ten buyer’s guides and a size-and-key chart, written for the questions customers phone in with
- Product questions and answers kept in a Shopify metafield, so they show on the page and in search results
- Nine old pages, ten old posts and three collections retired behind 67 redirects, none of them dead
- Search Console and Bing verified; the Google & YouTube channel connected to its own Merchant Center and Analytics
- Store email authenticated, customs details on every product, shipping rates and checkout fields corrected, six unused apps removed with no leftover scripts
Both are real, trading stores, not demonstrations. Prices, products and stock on them are Sensortags Inc.’s own. Figures above were measured on the dates given and will change.
How it works
A preview store first, then the switch
Shopify lets us build your store on a private address while your current site keeps selling. Nothing changes for your customers until you have clicked through the new store on your own phone and said yes.
-
Step 1
A free checkup
Send us your store’s address. We read it the way Google and a phone customer do, and email you a short PDF with what we found and a price.
-
Step 2
A fixed quote
One price to build or move the store and one monthly price to look after it, in writing, before any work starts. Shopify’s own plan is paid to Shopify and is separate.
-
Step 3
Build on a preview store
We build on a private Shopify development store. You place a test order, try the search, and tell us what to change.
-
Step 4
Switch over and care
We move your domain, redirect every old address, check the search and shopping listings, and stay on call for changes.
