5 Things E-commerce Developers Must Do

Team of qualified developers, a good coding system and basic framework for website, etc. basic things comes in one’s mind while thinking about developing a good website. But one question arises, are these means capable enough for developing and easily working of a website? Probably not, because smoothly working of a website specially an e-commerce website requires more than the basic tolls mentioned above. Let’s have a glance at some of them,

      1.     Enable Responsive Design

With the passage of time and evolution of Digital and Communication technology, we have witnessed the drastic change in the usage of devices for the transmission of information. Now-a-days Desktop and PC are replaced by Mobile Devices like Smart Phones and Tablets.

Same is affecting E-Commerce in large extent. As mention in one of my blogs “Driving Trends of E-Commerce” more than 50% of the total orders placed on E-Commerce during the year 2014 were made from Mobile Devices.

Therefore, an E-Commerce Developer needs to enable responsive design for the site so that one can access the website in every device.

     2.     Develop Genuine Content & Keep Track of its Effectiveness

For an e-commerce website, its content is the core of the website and the way of presenting the content on site has its own prime importance.

Therefore, developers should strive at developing genuine content for website and after that to measure its effectiveness one can use tools like Google Analytics, Web Master, etc.

     

     3.     An Effective Content Management System

Once the content of website is created, it is necessary to manage it properly. One can use the data from analytics software to support the CMS of the website. An effective CMS works as an active backend system for website, which makes the website capable of attracting more traffic. 

    4.     Social Media Integration

Effective use of Social Media Integration may help website to perceptible increase in its traffic. Over the years we have noticed drastic change in usage of social media. Numbers of users have increased more than 100% for the past years. Thus, enabling social media integration one can open the doors for all those users to visit and use the website.

Social Media Integration also provides an easier alternative to guest visitor to purchase from website. One will feel inconvenient to create separate User Account for purchasing from site which may later result in loosing that visitor. But through social media integration one can retain the visitor by allowing them to log in with their social media Id.

     5.     Security

Security; the most sensitive issue for any website, specially for e-commerce website where customers are submitting their personal details like address, contact numbers, bank and credit card details, etc. It becomes necessary for developers to secure the site with Secure Sockets Layers (SSLs) to build trust in the mind of customers submitting their details.
