Your One-Stop Shop for Starting Your Own Ecommerce Store in 2023

The purpose of an online store is to engage customers and encourage them to make a purchase and sell products online. Ecommerce stores are an excellent way to start a small business. They can be used to sell a variety of products, with the most popular being clothing, food, and accessories. Ecommerce stores help you keep track of sales, order inventory, and collect payments. They can also help you build a customer base and gain followers.

According to the website https://ecommercedb.com "the eCommerce sector in South Africa experienced a 19% boost in 2021, contributing to the worldwide increase of 29%. Revenue development is continuous. New markets are being developed, and existing ones may also grow. Global development will proceed for the next few years. In 2019, 14.1% of all retail sales around the world were made through e-commerce. By 2023, this number is expected to rise to 22%."

Naming your startup domain name

Before you build your online store to sell products online, selecting the names of your store and domain is as important as selecting the types of products that you will offer. A domain name should be easy for potential customers to locate online. You can boost traffic by including search engine optimization keywords in your domain name. If you are selling shoes, for example, handmade shoes, include 'shoes' in the name. We create your marketplace with a well designed theme and navigation design with an easy front-end UX.

The Ecommerce shop layout needs to be simple to navigate with product photos and trending products

The shop layout is simple to navigate with product photos and trending products.

Choose a design template that works for your brand. Users can easily checkout and purchase the product categories, and product images can be zoomed in and out for more product details with a few clicks. First-time users register automatically when they check out a product from the shop. You could also use social media marketing and sell directly from your Facebook business page and ask for customer reviews. Your store can be integrated with multiple payment processors. Users do not need to pre-register to buy from your store.

Online training to manage your online store

We use video conferencing tools to do live training so that you can manage the back-end of your shopping cart to manage your product prices, stock, and product images. We also created a video of your shopping cart that you can watch if you get stuck.
