We were asked by Pure Pro to migrate their existing BigCommerce store from the antiquated Blueprint framework to the new Stencil framework. Working closely with the Pure Pro team, IntuitSolutions designed, developed and launched a custom BigCommerce Stencil theme on PurePro.com. We then implemented custom add-ons to enhance the UX.

The Challenge: Optimizing Site Performance While Preserving a Familiar Look at Layout

In the competitive world of selling automotive online, every detail – from initial product search to checkout – plays a pivotal role in building buyer confidence. 

JMC Automotive recognized the need to modernize their platform to enhance performance, streamline content updates, and deliver a better user experience. Their goal was to preserve the appearance of their old site while fully leveraging the capabilities of the modern ecommerce platform, BigCommerce.

The Solution: Modern Automotive Ecommerce Development on the Latest BigCommerce Cornerstone Theme

JMC’s new site build matched the prior design their company loved while introducing several performance enhancements and modern upgrades needed to stay ahead of the curve for automotive ecommerce. Built on the ITS Base Theme, a BigCommerce Cornerstone-based Stencil theme, JMCAutomotiveEquipment.com, leverages the most modern, powerful customization features of the BigCommerce platform.

Our BigCommerce developers have dedicated hundreds of hours optimizing our theme for Page Load Speed, Accessibility, SEO, and faster updates.

Key ITS Base Theme Improvements Include:

  • Significant Upgrades to Web Accessibility
  • Optimized 404 Page & Crawler Instructions for Google
  • Improved ‘Quick Search’ Results
  • Mobile Photoswipe Functionality
  • Popup Login Feature
  • Product Video Thumbnails
  • Image Swap on Hover
  • Informational Product Page Tabs
  • Additional Rich Snippet Schema Markup
