Read on to find out what you will get from us when we build your ecommerce website.
Content Management
Telling the story behind your product, your business, your company is the key to generating interest and sales. Your ecommerce website is just as much about content as it is about selling. An intuitive and powerful content management system will make telling your story simple. You will be able to create new pages with ease and make edits to them, at anytime from anywhere. Adding images, creating links to your products pages, integrating SEO elements, and generating blog posts will be at your fingertips to engage your potential customers and generate sales.
Dynamic Shopping Cart
Browsing products and adding them to a shopping cart should be simple and straight forward. Site users should see their cart automatically populate with the products they have selected, and optionally be able to save them for a later time rather than starting over if they can’t complete their order right now. Their checkout process should be streamlined, safe and secure to ensure that nothing stands in the way of completing an order.
Interaction and personalization.
Customers expect sites to “remember” them with features such as product recommendations, promos, and a tailored, content-rich experience. And as a customer-facing channel, the richest eCommerce experiences offer ready access to real-time support such as live chat.
Multiple Payment and Shipping Options
Confidence and security are key to generating sales with your ecommerce website. If site users don’t feel their sensitive information is safe, they will find another vendor where they do. Offering multiple payment and shipping options ensures you won’t alienate anyone. Give shoppers multiple options for shipping, and let them see the cost of shipping before they enter into the checkout process. The checkout form itself should be simple and intuitive, and include a confirmation via email that their order was received.
Scalable Platform
One aspect of building a successful ecommerce website that is often not considered is the ability for the website to grow and scale with the business. If you’re selling your products or services online, your website is going to be the foundation of your business, and as your business grows, your website needs to be able to scale up to grow with it. Let us build you a website that is able to accommodate the success of your business and grow with it.
The right integrations.
A static site that’s disconnected from your business ecosystem creates data entry work for employees, and irritates customers with out-of-date information and limited features.
Product Filtering
Your customers should be able to customize their shopping experience to suite their own, unique needs in order to find what they are looking for. Sorting by price, style, color or popularity are highly valuable tools that will make the shopping experience more enjoyable and ultimately help lead to more sales.
Promotion and Discount Tools
There is no better way to encourage customers to browse your website and build your sales than with promotions and discounts. They are the core marketing elements of any successful ecommerce website. Whether limited time discount, buy one get one deal, or free shipping offer, you need to be able to easily add, manage and edit these promotions to keep your site relevant, current and exciting to your customers. Add special coupon codes, or create site-wide promotions for anyone shopping on your website.
Suggested Pages And Related Products
Make it easy for your customers to find exactly what they’re looking for by suggesting products based on their interests and usage of your website. Suggest products based on products that shoppers are currently viewing, recommend products based on their site searches, and allow them to share and send products to friends. It’s not enough to just put your products on your website, you need to help guide your shoppers to what they are really looking for.
