Building Blocks Of A Good E Commerce Website

Just put a catalog of products, a shopping cart

, and a payment gateway, and your e-commerce website is ready to go! Well, not actually! Though there are some really good sites around, a lot are still ill-designed. Here, in this article, I am putting together some of the must-haves for a successful e commerce website.

Images Speak

Images are at the core of an e commerce website, and you need to put in a lot to decide, how you going to use them on your site. For example, a ladies jeans would not look that great when lying on a table; let a model sport the same jeans, and you know, you have it. There are products, such as shoes which need to be viewed from multiple angles so that a prospective consumer can see a fairer picture, and buy it. So, if you want to sell more and see more repeat customers on your site, do make a double check whether your images are up-to-the-standard or not.

Product Description

A compelling copy on a product can make all the difference. So, whenever I go to an e commerce site for purchasing some new books, I do check for their descriptions. If I find the description enticing, compelling, I, in most of the cases, buy the book. Well, this is how an average shopper buys online. So, you have to make sure that your product descriptions inform and persuade them to buy the products. Many E-commerce Companies in India seem to overlook this thing. Well, you do not do the same.

Navigation

Finding a product or a service on your site should be as easy as lifting a cup of tea to your mouth. I once went to a site where I literally felt as if I am on a treasure hunt and not a book. It took so much time there, and yes, you guessed it right, I never went to that site again. Now, this should not be the case with your site. All you navigation options: drop-downs, sidebars and menus should be quite intuitive and user-friendly.

Pricing

Keep transparency in your pricing. Consumers should never feel like cheated. Remember, you can cheat them once, but, not twice. And, bitter shopping experiences never result into loyal customers.

Professional E Commerce Website Development

Though there are numerous web development companies in the market, you should pick an experienced and professional service provider. This ensures that your site is built on the latest technologies and do not sour the shopping experience of your prospective consumers.
