What is a CMS?
CMS stands for content management system, which is software that will help you to manage your website. This includes allowing you to create, load, and manage your content, and do other front-facing tasks.
The magic of using a good CMS is that this software takes care of all the technical back-end parts. You won’t need to do your own coding or learn a new language just to make updates to your website.
WordPress is arguably the most famous CMS in the world, and it’s certainly one that we use to help with ecommerce web design. In fact, roughly a third of all websites in the world are built with WordPress, including major names such as BBC America’s shopping section and the Angry Birds online store.
How long will my eCommerce website project take to complete?
Ecommerce web development does take time, as there’s a lot more to it than building a simple blog or standard non-ecommerce website.
The time it takes will depend largely on the scope of the project, such as just how many products and categories there are, the payment system, and the rest of the website. It will also depend on how responsive you are, as your feedback will be required at each stage to ensure you love the design as much as we hope you do.
To give you an idea, ecommerce development will typically take three to 6 months from start to finish, although these times can vary depending on the project. Get in touch with the team at 13 Stripes for a better idea of a timeframe for your site.
Do you offer support after the eCommerce website is complete?
Absolutely – the job isn’t finished just because the site is live!
As part of our ongoing ecommerce web design services, we will continue to monitor your site to keep an eye out for issues or technical problems. We will fix anything we come across to ensure your products are flying off the virtual shelves 24/7 for the first month.
How much does it cost to build an eCommerce website in USA?
This is a simple question, but a tricky one to answer! Every business is different, and every custom ecommerce website is unique. And that’s just part of why there is no set figure for the cost of ecommerce web design. Some projects will be relatively straightforward and quick, while others will require significantly more time and man hours, meaning the cost of an ecommerce website truly can vary a great deal.
But to give you a rough idea, most of our customers will spend roughly $8,000 to +$20,000. That’s a general mid-range, so be sure to reach out for a chat and we can give you a clearer idea of the cost for your business.
What information do you need to provide a quote?
As much as you can give us. We need to learn about your business at present, including the products you’re selling, how large your range is, and whether you plan to significantly upscale in the future. It’s also helpful for you to let us know whether you need a new domain, hosting, affiliate integration, or integration with any software you currently use.
If you don’t have all of this information, or you’re not sure where to start, don’t worry! Just drop us a line and we can help you figure out what you need and what would be best for your sales platform.
Who will provide the copy for the website?
There are actually three options for including copy in your ecommerce web design.
If you already have a full set of copy on your website that you’re perfectly happy with, you’re welcome to carry that across. Another option is to use your existing copy, but have our content and SEO teams give it a once over edit for a spelling and grammar check, and to ensure it’s optimized for search (and for making sales!).
Alternatively, we’re more than happy to include copywriting as part of our services. Our strategists and SEO teams will provide guidance for our skilled copywriters to create epic words for your website that will help to draw in audiences and convert them into customers.
Who owns my eCommerce website after it is complete?
You do!
We know there is the odd ecommerce web development company that will insist on holding onto the ownership of your website, but that’s just not our style. Be sure to carefully look at any contracts you sign to make sure you’re not signing over your site.
We do strongly advise that you keep us around for updates, bug fixes, and the like, but ownership remains with you no matter what.
How do I select the right eCommerce website designer for me?
No doubt there will be a good few Google searches to get you started in the hunt for a great ecommerce web development company. As you peruse through websites, you’ll quickly get a sense of the kinds of services each company provides and their styles. This is the first and easiest test – do you like the look of what they do?
The next questions will take a little more digging. You’ll want to make sure the company you are considering has ample experience in eCommerce design for brands similar to yours in size or style.
You’ll also want to ask about results. This is the important part, as a beautiful eCommerce website isn’t worth much if it doesn’t get sales. Ask to see examples of past work where the designer can prove just how effective their design and execution really is.
On a totally unrelated note, 13 Stripes is an ecommerce web development company totally dedicated to results. And we have plenty of examples to prove it.
