Magento e-commerce

Screen Pages designs, builds and hosts bespoke open source Magento e-commerce websites.


Screen Pages offers a fully managed Magento e-commerce service.

E-commerce has moved along since Screen Pages first started in 2000. New ideas, new technologies and new channels emerge every day and yesterdays’ state-of-the-art is today’s must-have, tomorrow’s standard and next week’s old hat.

At Screen Pages, we employ best-practice e-commerce thinking to design and create bespoke websites for niche brands, whether they run shops, mail order businesses or operate solely on online. Our e-commerce platform choices are vital.

Since late 2008, we have been implementing Magento. Magento is a direct response to the emerging new needs of today’s online merchants and provides all the e-commerce staples and many of the new cutting edge capabilities. Importantly, it’s been engineered from the ground up to support multiple sites in multiple languages, catalogues and price lists. It’s SEO and Web 2.0 friendly. It also allows bespoke design and layout, meaning your brand and proposition will still stand out online.

It’s also open source, which means we have access to a wide and growing community of third-party extensions and it’s also portable – retailers are not locked into a single provider.
