    Difference Between eCommerce Websites And Traditional Websites

    By admin October 21, 2022 1261 Views

    With the advent of the latest technology, the traditional way of purchasing goods or services is being replaced by eCommerce websites. In the traditional mode, customers used to go to sellers to choose from the wide range of products available, but now people are sitting in their houses and ordering food, groceries, and many more. However, some people still purchase traditionally due to the myth that eCommerce sites are not safe for shopping, which is not true. The modern world is all websites, and every company has a website to promote itself. While various types of websites are present, read about the main difference between eCommerce and traditional websites.

    What Are Traditional Websites?

    Regular traditional or informational websites are typical company websites or blogs which provide information to the target customers. Using traditional websites, customers can get information about companies, products, services, educational information, and much more. Traditional websites can also be used to find out more about the products and services of a particular company and get reviews. Students use educational websites to get information and tips regarding their studies and industries. Most traditional websites include about us, products, contact us, and blog pages. In the case of a traditional website, all the transactions are offline after the visitor submits an inquiry or request.

    What Are Ecommerce Websites?

    Ecommerce is all about buying and selling products or services over an electronic network and an eCommerce website. For an eCommerce website, all monetary transactions are conducted online. Some industries that have opted for eCommerce websites are retail stores, service companies, financial management companies, and music websites. Unlike the traditional website, developing an eCommerce website is a tough process as some extra features like payment gateway, and secure online transactions need to be included. Suppose you are a regular business person who decided to have an eCommerce website for his business. In that case, you need to contact an experienced eCommerce development company that can handle all the complications of an online store.

    Types of Traditional Websites

    While there are no websites that can be specifically classified as traditional websites, here are some examples of traditional websites

    • Free & personal websites
    • Simple sharing websites that include photos and videos.
    • Social Networking websites
    • Catalog websites

    Types of eCommerce Websites

    Ecommerce websites can be divided based on two parameters: type of offerings and nature of participants. The types of offerings include Digital products, Physical products, and Services. While coming to the nature of participants, they are classified as

    • Business to Business (B2B)
    • Business to Consumer (B2C)
    • Consumer to Business (C2B)
    • Consumer to Consumer (C2C)
    • Business to Administration (B2A)
    • Consumer to Administration (C2A)

    The Key Differences Between eCommerce And Traditional Websites

    1. Website Functionality

    The functionalities used in eCommerce websites are far more complex when compared to traditional websites. Very few features are used for a traditional website, which does not need much development time. For an online website, an experienced eCommerce website development team designs a site that is tailored for all types of businesses.

    2. Additional Features Used

    For an eCommerce website, online transactions are most important. The site must include additional features like Cart, checking out, payment gateway, inventory system, and storing customer-sensitive information. If the above features do not work properly, it will impact the customer’s shopping experience. In the case of traditional websites, there is no need to include additional features.

    3. Regular Updation Of Site Content

    For any online website, brand visibility is important as it is the key to improving sales and attracting more customers. To improve brand visibility, it is necessary to update the eCommerce website content regularly. Each eCommerce website page must be implemented with SEO-optimized metadata, and all the images should have alt-tags. As traditional websites do not have additional features, it is not important to update the content; typically, the content is updated weekly or every fortnight.

    4. Security Of Website

    There is a lot of difference between eCommerce and traditional websites regarding the site’s security. There are different functionalities for regular and eCommerce websites, so they require varying levels of security. All eCommerce websites deal with online transactions, and customers must provide debit or credit card information while making purchases. As a result, all online websites should have an extra level of security to protect the sensitive information given by customers during their purchases. Regular websites do not deal with any monetary transactions, so there is no need to implement extra security.

    5. Need For Professional Designers

    As eCommerce websites use complicated features, hiring an expert eCommerce web design company is always recommended to develop a secure online store for your business. There is no need for a traditional website to use complicated features, so it might not be used for a professional web design company, but it could be better if you hire one.

    Hire a Custom eCommerce Development Services Company

    The main difference between eCommerce and traditional websites is the purpose for which they are designed. Traditional websites are designed to give information, while eCommerce sites deal with products and services required by customers. As eCommerce websites deal with customers’ sensitive information, hiring an expert eCommerce developer is important. Ayatas Technologies is a custom eCommerce development services company with over 15 years of experience developing online stores for your business. Contact us for more details.
