What is e-commerce ?
It is easy to define E-commerce: E commerce = E business = electronic commerce.
E-commerce definition: it is buying and selling of products and/or services online. It also refers to developing, marketing, selling, delivering, servicing and paying for products/services on the Internet (or, though rarely, other computer networks).
E-commerce advantages: As the amount of e-trade is growing extraordinarily, and with the widespread Internet usage this trend will continue to create new and attractive commercial opportunities.
Web E commerce
Usually e-commerce sites are thought of only in terms of online stores. But e-business can be done on various e-commerce platforms and take different forms – just take a look at the examples of different e-commerce developments above!

E-commerce UK – FACTS
Meaning of e-commerce to any company’s success and survival cannot be underestimated:
- UK consumers spent £250bn between 2000 and 2010
- When shopping for something which can be bought both online and in store, 34% of UK shoppers would prefer to buy online, with 55% opting for the high street
- IMRG and Capgemini predict that the UK online retail market will grow by 110% in the next decade, reaching £123bn by 2020
- According to this forecast, growth will slow down to 6% year on year as the market matures
Business to Business e-commerce / Consumer e-commerce
But e-commerce isn’t restricted to companies trading solely through their e-stores. With help, almost any business can break from the constrains of a “brick-and-mortar-only” enterprise, either to provide much needed diversification or to reach new markets.
E-commerce development
With the above e-commerce trends in mind, now is THE TIME to enter your business into the e-business arena. With hunderds of successfully delivered e-commerce development projects you can trust our expertise.
What is the time needed for an e-commerce development ?
Depending on the size of the e-commerce development project (10s, 100s or 1000s of products?), complexity of the designs and necessary functionalities (blog, video playback, dynamic data feeds relating prices and/or product specifications, customer reviews, etc.) it can take anything from efficient 1 week to a couple of months.

E-commerce design
Works exactly the same as for any other web development, although it does take much more careful consideration due to the constrains stemming from product presentation limitations (“clean” design, ease of use for customer, navigation patterns etc.).
But apart from looking great (to the human eye) our designs always take into consideration the performance of the site! Styling, structure and even coding languages used (i.e. the infamous JavaScript!) can all influence how any particular e-commerce site will be perceived by Google and other search engines, which ultimately detarmines natural (“organic”) traffic that the e-commerce site will enjoy.
We can also provide consultancy and best advice re web e-commerce design practice. We are recommended Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) experts offering affordable AND efficient SEO.
Design process: from initial contact with the client to e-commerce development sign-off our team of designers works as closely or as independently on the designs as the client finds most comfortable.
E-commerce security
We can integrate secure transaction channels into our e-commerce developments, such as Sage Payment Solutions, that provide complete debit and credit cards processing to guarantee customers’ peace of mind when they are using our client’s e-commerce sites.
Moreover, it is difficult to successfully run an e-commerce website when consumers don’t feel safe executing a transaction on your site. That’s why we sometimes recommend introducing SSL (Secure Socket Layer) certificate (there are various types and payment plans to choose from) to e-commerce developments that would benefit from it.
