Ecommerce Solutions are part of what Tempest Web Design are famous for. We have completed a number of highly effective ecommerce solutions for a wide variety of clients. Take a look at our latest example www.talentcricket.co.uk We have recently revamped the home page and included a technology called flash into the ecommerce solution which effectively gives it a dynamic and vibrant feel.
We understand that when you are looking for an ecommerce solution that there are many elements that are worh considering. We find that the biggest of these is that the solution must give you a return on your investment. It’s true in all businesses that when developing a marketing theme or developing an idea then a return must be made and ecommerce solutions are no different.
There are considerations to be made when considering how much to spend on your new site.
Firstly, it’s generally recognised and a maxim in life that ‘you get what you pay for’. Samuel Johnson, the man who wrote the first dictionary famously said ‘there’s not many things that someone cannot make a little bit cheaper and a little bit worse’. Good words I’m sure you’ll agree.
So when we look at the cost implication if you want to do a great deal of work of the net and gain a lot of your business this way, then common sense says that you’re going to need to attract visitors, then keep them on your site long enough for them to either pick up the phone and call you or simply place their order online.
Conversely if you’re expecting your site to simply compliment your shop then is there any real need to go overboard with it? If it does well you can always improve on it later.
The choice at the end of the day is obviously down to the individual and their business model. As a general rule of thumb we would always advise that you spilt your money between the site design and search engine optimisation. It’s all well and good having a fantastic site, but if no one can find it then it’s not going to do you much good.
Your second consideration should be who to work with. Look for someone like Tempest who have a track record of delivering ecommerce solutions. Ask questions such as, can I speak to your client personally to get a reference, will you train me on the system, what do you promise to deliver for me?
Questions like these should get you a company who will get you what you need.
Thirdly, site design. What should it look like? How should the user interact.
Is it easy to use? What in essence you are looking for is an easy to use ecommerce solution that looks good. Take a look at amazon.co.uk it’s not a ‘flashy’ website, but it sure is easy to use. And that really is the key thing, if it’s not clear how to buy then your users will be put off and go somewhere else. Your ecommerce solution should make it easy for them, not difficult.
