Testimonials
Denis
Director of leko.market store
I was searching for a web store developer and came across the CS-Cart platform. I reached out to its creators. Various representatives of this platform in Russia started reaching out to me. Among them was the Makeshop team. They explained everything in detail, making it easy for me to understand. I decided to work with them. Together, we worked on and created an online store. I constantly come up with tasks that are necessary for our business, and the team easily brings them to life. There are plenty of ideas in my head, and there is still much to do with Makeshop. My rating for our collaboration is a solid five.
Anastasia Belykh
Public Relations and Communications Manager at MosOptTorg - mosopttorg.com
We have been collaborating with Makeshop for several years and have implemented multiple significant and interesting projects. Most recently, the development team created two modules for us. One of them involves synchronizing with another website with complex functionality. The other is an internal program module for our employees. Tasks were defined, and several good solutions were proposed. Then, implementation followed according to the specified deadlines. Communication was maintained throughout the entire period, adjustments were made, and all processes were refined. As of today, we continue our partnership with Makeshop and rely on their professionalism in their work.
Konstantin Karamyshkin
Head of Elitupak
We had an outdated online store, and the task was to update it to have a beautiful, functional, and user-friendly website. We decided to entrust the migration to CS-Cart to the make shop team because, during the discussion of the technical specifications, it became clear that they are professionals in their field.
We were very pleased with the new design; we opted for a graphic design package. From a technical perspective, everything was done precisely (the migration to the platform, data transfer from 1C to MySklad and the website, and so on). They respond fairly quickly to all questions in the chat, and you can always request additional functionality development.
We hope for further productive cooperation!

Q&A About Improving CS-Cart Performance
How can I check the speed of a CS-Cart website?
There are many services available for evaluating website speed. The most popular one is Google PageSpeed Insights, but its results do not always reflect the real user experience. It is more suitable for technical auditing rather than measuring the speed users actually see.
We recommend using Loading Express — it allows you to test loading speed with consideration of the region where your site operates. This provides more accurate and practical data.

Does CS-Cart website speed affect SEO?
Yes, it directly affects it. Loading speed is one of the ranking factors in search engines. The faster the site, the higher the chance to achieve good positions in search results — especially on mobile devices.
However, speed optimization does not replace full-scale SEO promotion — it is only one important component, and the work must be done comprehensively.

Which version of the site is the priority — desktop or mobile?
We primarily focus on the mobile version of the site, as it is used by the majority of users and is especially important for search engines. Optimization for desktop and mobile requires different approaches: they differ in internet speed, connection types, user behavior, and resource limitations.
That’s why we adapt content, scripts, and visual elements specifically for mobile devices to achieve the best possible results.

What is the optimal page size for a CS-Cart website?
For fast loading, it is recommended to keep the total page size within 1–1.5 MB. This is achieved by compressing images, removing unnecessary code, and optimizing fonts and scripts.
How fast should a CS-Cart website load?
The recommended load time is up to 3 seconds. Two parameters are especially important:
• Server response time — up to 0.5 seconds
• First Contentful Paint (FCP) — up to 1 second
This helps users see that the site is working quickly, which increases the chances they will stay longer.
