E-Commerce Websites
E-Commerce websites are the most complex to design and build because they incorporate a database, a shopping cart and some means of processing payments (usually a credit card processing and/or paypal connection). As you can see from the two examples above, they can also have very distinct and very different personalities. It is especially important to design these websites from the very beginning with ease of navigation and search-engine optimization in mind because as the site grow, it becomes increasingly difficult to make changes throughtout the site to incorporate these goals. Security is also a very important consideration with these sites because you are gathering custoemr information, including personal information and credit card information, and storing it in your database. Because these sites are more complex and contain many more pages than most static websites, they are, of course, more expensive. However, that does not mean that they are out of reach for small businesses. Give us a call.
