FAQs for eCommerce Website Development

How do I start an eCommerce development project?

It all starts with a conversation with one of our eCommerce development team. We work with our clients to understand their requirements and find the right eCommerce solution.

Are you looking for a subscription site? A new website that makes purchasing seamless for your customers? A fresh website design that can get people from the front page to the cart? Think about what you need and let’s collaborate to make it happen for you.

What should I consider when looking for an eCommerce agency?

Whoever you work with should not only have a proven track record of being able to create the kind of website you need, but also be able to give specialist knowledge from within their own team.

Take time to look at their portfolio of websites and, most importantly, make sure that they take the time to listen to your vision and ideas. We are proud of our track record and want to share our eCommerce agency experience and insights with our potential clients.

What is eCommerce website development?

eCommerce website development is the creation of an online shopping site. This is essential for many businesses, particularly after the Covid-19 pandemic so that customers can shop with ease and businesses don’t need to depend on a physical store.

What is the best programming language to develop an eCommerce website?

Depending on your requirements, our eCommerce website design company choose the most suitable languages for the project, which will also allow you to scale the platform as you continue to grow your business. We use a number of CMSs including WordPress/WooCommerce, Sulu, Prismic, Ibexa, Magento, or we could develop a bespoke CMS for you. In terms of the backend we are PHP-based developers (we mainly use Symfony or Laravel), whereas for the front end we use VueJS, Twig, Javascript, LESS, SASS, HTML and CSS. The key is choosing the most suitable CMS and technology stack for the project.

Which technology is best for eCommerce website development?

When considering web development for an eCommerce store, we work with PHP as it’s commonly used throughout the industry and allows the flexibility needed for a site to grow.

In terms of content management systems, we work with a number of systems which are ideal for eCommerce websites. Each has their own pros and cons, therefore we will review your specific requirements and suggest the most suitable solution, while also allowing our developers to build a site that will set you up for success.

Which payment gateway(s) would you recommend?

When it comes to making online payments, the more options a customer has, the better your conversion rate will be. We encourage our clients to consider multiple payment options to give as much choice as possible. In our experience, Stripe and Paypal work well together to cover your bases.

We’ve also worked with all of the leading payment gateways including Stripe, PayPal, GoCardless, SagePay/Opayo, WorldPay, Secure Trading and others so you know that you’re in safe hands.

Can I integrate my stock management system with an eCommerce website?

Yes, assuming that your stock management system has an API, or some way to get data in or out. Feel free to contact us to discuss this further

Which eCommerce platforms do you work with?

We don’t limit ourselves to a single platform. As long as it’s within the PHP realm, our team of expert developers can help. We have the most experience with OpenCart, Magento, WooCommerce, Ibexa, Sulu and bespoke builds — so our team will help you find the right solution for you.

What’s the best way to increase sales on my eCommerce platform?

Depending on your aims, profit margins, marketing budget and other elements will determine the best way for you to increase sales. However, we would recommend using paid ads across the most suitable channels in order to drive additional sales.

As well as being a big part of the future of marketing, paid ads allow you to increase sales in a transparent way, meaning you can manage your budget and see your return on investment. Find out more about paid ads here.
