Online Store Development
E-commerce today is much more complex than simply showcasing products online. It represents an extremely competitive and ever-changing ecosystem, where only the well-prepared and those benefiting from the most advanced technical solutions survive. A state-of-the-art software solution for e-commerce is a tool that will provide you with the competitive advantage you need. With the help of intelligent automations related to displaying and modifying products or the delivery, payment, and return processes, you will have more time to focus on growing your business and maintaining relationships with your suppliers.
Customized services for a NEW e-commerce REALITY
Let’s be straightforward – the online environment is the future of commerce. It is growing much faster than traditional businesses, and selling something online has never been easier. According to Statistics, in 2020, e-commerce sales amounted to 4.2 trillion dollars, in 2021, they reached 5.2 trillion dollars, and in 2022, the value was 6.4 trillion dollars. Currently, over 25% of the total volume of global transactions is represented by online sales.
All these figures sound promising, but the reality is that more businesses fail than succeed. The lack of a strategy based on a stable and well-designed software solution is, among other things, a determining factor for success in e-commerce. To truly reap the benefits of modern e-commerce, you need an elegant software solution that implements your ideas and business model while being highly scalable and flexible in customization.

Services in the E-commerce Development Process
From a good user experience to amazing performance, there are a multitude of factors to be considered when developing a top-notch software solution. E-commerce software has its specific challenges, which sometimes makes things even more complicated. The main components of your e-commerce project include:
Designing an e-commerce solution must be spectacular, without a doubt. Intuitiveness, ease of finding information and products, responsiveness, seamless payment regardless of device or browser – this is the only way to stimulate up-selling and cross-selling.

An online store must have the power to create engagement and develop loyalty. For this to happen, it must be very fast, interactive and integrated with innovative functionalities.
Even the best-looking online store with a well-designed user experience will not be a success without an effective and efficient architecture and infrastructure. This is the engine that drives sales – its reliability is the key to the whole project, so never marginalize the backend!
In order to properly improve the customer experience, drive engagement and increase loyalty of your e-commerce platform, it must be integrated with the most popular solutions that your users expect to have at their disposal. Social networks, payment gateways or the possibility to track parcels are the best examples. Knowing how to use APIs and plugins without limiting speed or affecting performance is essential.
Take quality assurance seriously. New features must be tested for stability before they go live. At the end of the day, there is only one chance to make a good impression on the right place to spend your money! Detecting bugs at early stages ensures high software quality and increases its overall acceptance.
In today’s world, it is essential for an online store to have a high ranking in search engines, as this directly translates into sales. We like to say that you can have the most powerful and attractive online store, but if the customer can’t find it in the search engine, sales will be non-existent. Never underestimate the power of Google! The structure needs to be planned, and pages must be optimized to increase visibility for chosen phrases or keywords. Learn more about our SEO services here.
Creating a high-performance e-commerce solution doesn’t stop at the launch date. The best online stores continuously improve and evolve to adapt to a constantly changing business environment. Depending on business needs, entrust the technical system maintenance to a proven team. You can find more information about how we can manage the technical solution here.
