5 Essential Things To Consider When Developing An
E-Commerce Website
2- E-commerce website development can be quite
challenging and complicated. If you want to boost
your sales pipeline, increase traffic, generate
more leads, and grow your online business you
should consider these things when developing your
eCommerce website. - E-commerce website development can be quite
challenging and complicated. Aside from the
website structure itself, there are a lot of
other aspects that you need to take into
consideration especially if you are working on a
large-scale enterprise. Below are some of the
most important (but often neglected) things that
you have to keep an eye on when developing an
e-commerce website.
3Properly organize your products
The main reason why you are putting up an
eCommerce website is to sell your merchandise,
right? Then, you have to make sure that your
products are properly organized and are neatly
designed. Highlight your products and add a
catchy yet truthful and concise description of
each of your products. You should also properly
indicate the other essential information
including the price.
4Make your website mobile-friendly
- Cross-platform mobile app development becomes
more popular and the use of various mobile
devices gets more widespread each passing day. In
2017 statistics, more than 25 of the sales
generated by eCommerce websites are made through
mobile devices. A large portion of this
percentage is done with the help of certain
mobile apps. - In order to cope up with these fast pacing
developments, you need to see to it that your
website does not only look great but is also
mobile friendly and highly responsive. Make your
website accessible across various devices. When
designing your website, always keep in mind that
your customers and visitors do not only use one
platform and that cross-platform mobile
development is essential. Make each aspect of
your eCommerce site mobile-friendly, from
navigation to product selection, and from
checkout to payment.
5Add search box
- The search box widget is considered as among the
most neglected parts of a website. Most online
shoppers do not spend too much time going through
each of the product pages. Make it easier and
quicker for your customers to find the products
they are looking for by categorizing your
products accordingly and by adding the search box
widget.
6Your website design should match your merchandise
- In order for your eCommerce site to work, you
need to be consistent. Make sure that your site's
design perfectly matches your products or
services from color schemes and text to images
and everything in between. For instance, if you
are selling real estate properties, your website
theme and design should look like one. A reliable
web development company is able to come up with a
design that will perfectly match your
merchandise.
Product reviews and social proof
- For an eCommerce website that is relatively new,
gaining the trust and confidence of customers is
really challenging. Building trust can take time.
To encourage your visitors to put their
confidence in you, it is a wise idea to add
product reviews or customer feedback feature on
the product page.

8- While you can always write great reviews for your
products and put them on your site, it is easy
for your customers and visitors to treat them as
just fabricated reviews. Make it easier for your
customers to leave their comments, reviews, or
feedback by adding this option right after each
completed transaction. - Those things listed above may seem to be really
simple and useless at first look but they can
actually make a difference. If you want to boost
your sales pipeline, increase traffic, generate
more leads, and grow your online business, you
should not only focus on what's big and obvious
but also on little details such as those
mentioned above.
