Online Shops (eCommerce Websites)
These are websites which list stock that customers buy online. Any additional information or services can be included in the website as required.
A payment gateway (e.g. PayPal, Google Checkout, Protx, WorldPay or Nochex) can be fully integrated into your website, allowing payments to be securely made without the need to hold customer's payment card details directly.
Stock descriptions, availability and prices can be securely managed through an easy to use online tool. You can set up products yourself, supply images for us to set up, or have us photograph the products for you.
Additional tools and reports are provided, along with training and full documentation specifically written for your online shop's admin tools, as required.
Your online shop is unique and designed to match your exact requirements. This flexibility, combined with our extremely low overheads ensures you only pay for the functions, complexity of design and level of service that you require.

First you tell us about your company and the products you sell. We need to know what returns you expect from your website, how you want the online shop to function, any additional services you want to offer, what admin tools you require and any ideas you have about its look. Examples of other online shops that you do and don't like are very helpful. We answer any questions you have, give advice where required and provide a no-obligation quote.
Next we produce an initial design of the look and functions required, which we talk through with you. We make any required changes and once the design is agreed a 10% deposit is payable.
