    By admin February 18, 2022 1756 Views

    An eCommerce website can help establish an online presence, reach more leads, and convert them into customers simultaneously. You can reach more customers through an online store and sell your products 24 hours a day. There is a simple saying that Rome was not built in a day, so in the same way, your eCommerce website cannot be built in a single day, and there would be updates or additions every time. Many factors are to be considered for website building, and you can use an agency to build an eCommerce website for your online store. If you are a business owner looking to launch an online store for your products, you need to know how long it takes to build an eCommerce website.

    What Is An eCommerce Store?

    An eCommerce refers to buying and selling goods transferring funds and services over the internet. An eCommerce website is generally designed for business to consumer or consumer to consumer or business to business or consumer to business. The most beneficial for any business is building an eCommerce site when most people want to buy products online.

    How To Personalize Your Online Store?

    Most professional designers have a design created for your website already, and creating your online store would be more swift and straightforward. Here are some of the points to look for while personalizing your online store.

    1. Choose Name and Domain

    For making your online business a success choosing a good domain and name for your eCommerce business is very important. Choosing a name close to your products is crucial, and also, to make yourself in search engines, you need to use descriptive keywords and key phrases in your business name.

    2. Pick Your eCommerce Platform

    Dedicated eCommerce platforms have robust solutions and have powerful built-in functionalities like secured payments, email marketing, sales support, and shipping labels. Some of the dedicated eCommerce platforms are

    • BigCommerce
    • Shopify
    • 3D Cart
    • WooCommerce
    • Magento
    • WordPress

    3. Choosing Your Theme

    The first step to creating an online store is choosing the perfect theme for your eCommerce website. You can get a range of themes by choosing the target industry suitable for your business.

    4. Updating Your Catalog

    For any online store, updating products and catalog is time-consuming, and you need to be prepared with all details of the products. While updating your products, be sure to update high-quality images, clear descriptions of products, the title of the product, and SEO for all listings.

    5. Categorize Products

    Addition and deletion of products can be done easily when all the products are arranged in categories. Product categories and catalogs will help easily manage the products and make searching for products easier for your customers.

    6. Integrating Payment Gateways

    Integrating payment gateways and shipping partner details will help share information with your consumer in an effective manner. In the absence of payment gateways and shipping partners, you will not be able to receive payments and also not able to share shipping status to your consumers. You can update your merchant account credentials and integrate the bank account to which the amount must be deposited. The cart and checkout settings will also be updated in this section.

    How Long It Takes To Build A eCommerce Website?

    The workflow of every agency is different, and the time taken to build an online store for your business may differ. There are many stages for building an online store, followed by an eCommerce website developing company. Here are the various stages of online store development.

    1. Proposal of Project

    The first step for starting an online store is a project proposal by a website development company. The typical time taken by any agency to complete this step is about 3-6 weeks. If you are a business owner and contacted a website development agency, then the agency will respond within 1-2 weeks. The agency prepares the necessary keywords, plans the specifics, keyword researches, and interviewing with you might take another 2-4 weeks. For building an online store, you need to consider more tools and software used for a standard website. For creating an online store, you need to have

    • A Domain name
    • Web hosting provider
    • Dedicated Payment Gateway
    • Product Packaging
    • Product Shipping provider

    2. Development of Online Store

    After deciding on the eCommerce platform you will use to develop your store, it is time to create the online store. Before starting the development, gathering information regarding the following elements is necessary.

    Logo for Your Website: The logo of your website depicts the brand of your business. So in addition to colors, fonts, and typography, a well-designed logo is an important aspect for branding your business.

    Photos and Description for Products: Description for products is the key for any online store, and various data about products must be added. For any online store information, product information regarding photos, videos, detailed description, Product SKUs, Pricing, inventory information, and product options need to be added.

    Customer Service Pages: Customers keep returning to your store if the service is best. Your customer service page needs to have shipping rates, return policy, exchange policy, and privacy policy.

    User-Friendly Navigation: Your eCommerce store should be user-friendly to help the customers navigate easily through your products. All the eCommerce developers can create a menu bar along with a footer and a side menu.

    The actual website is created in this stage, which takes about 4-12 weeks. In the development, all the technical stuff happens in the backend, and all the work is completed in 1-4 weeks. The next step is the front-end development which is less complex than the backend and sometimes tricky. The time taken for the front-end is about 1-4 weeks. Finally, the site’s content includes product descriptions, meta descriptions, and Seo titles. Content creation for your website takes about 2-4 weeks.

    3. Setting Up Payment, Tax, and Shipping Tools

    Setting up payments is crucial for any online store, and it depends on the eCommerce platform you have chosen. Platforms like BigCommerce or Shopify have in-built payment processing, tax calculations, label printing, and other marketing tools to make payment easier. Built-in shipping is also included in these platforms that can be integrated so that it is easy to connect with third-party solutions for label printing and shipping methods.

    4. Launching Website

    Now your website is ready for launching, it is time to check through all the website pages. Check once if all the pages are loading correctly, are all pages crawled by google, and are the payments working? Another important step is to know how to administrate the online store. As an owner of the site, you need to get trained on how to use the website with the help of trainers. The launching of the website should take about 1-2 weeks.

    To help you understand more easily, here is the time to build an eCommerce website.

    4 weeks for a simple eCommerce website with 25 products
    6 weeks for semi-complex eCommerce site with multiple categories and products
    16 weeks for customized and complex eCommerce website

    Conclusion

    The design of a typical eCommerce site takes about 14 weeks, including discovery, design, development, modifications, and launching of the site. Designing an eCommerce store can take time, but you need to hire a professional eCommerce website development agency for setting up your online store. At Ayatas Technologies, we have a top-notch team of eCommerce developers who always strive to create designs that help our client’s brand stand out and compete in today’s experience-driven, customer-centric marketplace.
