It can be costly but there are placement agencies that can help determine a developer's qualifications. That is a route to consider.

If the store is not terribly specialized, there are plenty of solidly built solutions that you should consider before a custom build. Using something like Shopify (http://shopify.com) makes things very easy.

Hi,

no, the shop isn't massively specialized but I think it would be too much to comfortably take on with Shopify (where I am currently setting up another store).

With regard to placement agencies, are you able to point me in the direction of any such agencies?

Thanks very much.
