The Best Ecommerce Platform for Your Santa Ana Website
If your Santa Ana ecommerce company needs a platform recommendation, we need to know what your website's goals are. There isn't one ecommerce platform that's perfect for every Santa Ana website.
For WooCommerce and Shopify projects, we have separate development teams. We can provide expert advice and service because our nearby ecommerce developers specialize in their own favorite ecommerce platforms.
Santa Ana WooCommerce Web Development Services
The most popular Santa Ana website content management system is WordPress. When you run an ecommerce website with WordPress, you'll probably need a WooCommerce web developer in Santa Ana.
In Santa Ana, we help startups and ecommerce businesses get started with WooCommerce.
Here's why our ecommerce website developers love WooCommerce:
- If you need a custom theme, but have a limited budget, we recommend WordPress or WooCommerce. We have our own custom WooCommerce theme that is based on Understrap and makes a good starting point for Santa Ana WooCommerce websites. Theme development for Santa Ana ecommerce clients is usually more expensive on Shopify.
- If your Santa Ana business already has a WordPress site, we recommend WooCommerce. It doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time and money redesigning your content-based website just to add ecommerce.
- WooCommerce is a great open-source option for Santa Ana web companies. You don't have to pay a monthly fee for WordPress or WooCommerce, just for website hosting. As an alternative, Shopify has expensive monthly fees (depending on your plan) and their apps are often more expensive than WooCommerce or WordPress plugins.
- For Santa Ana organizations that need a product builder, we recommend WooCommerce. If you are using WordPress and WooCommerce, there are numerous product builder plugins to consider and we've got experience developing custom builders in WooCommerce. Don't worry though, there are third-party apps for Santa Ana websites running Shopify that need a product configurator.
- If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.
Santa Ana Shopify Web Design Tactics
Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce site in Santa Ana, you'll probably need a Shopify website developer.
With our Shopify web development company, we can design a website for a new or existing business in California that runs on the Shopify platform.
Here are some reasons our ecommerce web developers like Shopify:
- For Santa Ana merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we recommend Shopify. If you want to run an ecommerce business in Santa Ana, you don't have to worry about constantly updating plugins or software.
- When Santa Ana web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we recommend Shopify. The cost of developing custom functionality with Shopify is higher than with WordPress. Additionally, you'll find getting Shopify apps often require monthly subscriptions versus one-time purchases for WordPress plugins.
- The best ecommerce platform for Santa Ana small businesses that rely heavily on fast turnaround times for development and marketing is Shopify. For testing out a new product, it's usually faster to set up a Shopify website and go through various apps and design ideas to test conversion rate optimization.
Redesigning Existing Ecommerce Websites
Santa Ana ecommerce sites that don't perform, don't function, or don't convert well might need a website overhaul.
Take your ecommerce web redesign in Santa Ana seriously. It's possible to lose search placements and online sales if your website developer forgets to create 301 redirects, completely restructures your URLs, or improperly reorganizes your product catalog.
We like to know your whole business before we start an ecommerce website refresh in Santa Ana. Here are some of the things to keep in mind when redesigning Santa Ana ecommerce sites:
- You have an ecommerce website in Santa Ana. How do people get there? If your online sales come mostly from organic search traffic, you'll need to maintain URL structures and use 301 redirects. It's also good to keep the same product categories, breadcrumb trails, and page content throughout the development of your Santa Ana site.
- How do customers like your Santa Ana site? Making big modifications to your website is okay if your online shoppers aren't happy. It's advisable to be cautious with design edits if you've already got good conversion rates.
- Do you plan to migrate your ecommerce platform? It will work different than your old website, if that's the case. Things like entering products, fulfilling orders, updating customer info, and going through check out will be different.
Determine Goals for Your Santa Ana Ecommerce Website Development Service
You can pay a lot of money to build an ecommerce website in Santa Ana. Make a list of the things you want your Santa Ana ecommerce website to accomplish before you hire a developer. Keeping track of measurable goals will help you keep your ecommerce site progressing in the right direction. We've seen these goals for Santa Ana ecommerce web design projects:
- To build out an online store for a new Santa Ana small business.
- Upgrade an old Santa Ana ecommerce system into a new one to improve security or functionality.
- Remaking an ecommerce website in order to improve user experience, reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.
- Improving the shopping experience by making it faster and more responsive.
- For ADA and WCAG compliance.

Questions to Ask Your Santa Ana Ecommerce Web Developer
You should ask plenty of questions before hiring an ecommerce website development agency in Santa Ana. While the answer will be valuable, how it's delivered should be even more important. Check to see how receptive the sales team is to detailed questions. You'll get a great idea for how things will be when the Santa Ana ecommerce development service starts up. Here are a few of the ecommerce web development questions we get from businesses in and around California:
- Is your ecommerce website development outsourced? At WebCitz, we don't outsource ecommerce web design services because we have our own team of Shopify and WooCommerce developers.
- If you change URLs, do you set up 301 redirects? It's hard to keep the URL structure the same during platform migrations, but WebCitz tries. We create 301 redirects for Santa Ana ecommerce developments that have different URL structures.
- When you start an ecommerce web development project, do you make design mockups? For Santa Ana WooCommerce development, WebCitz creates design mockups. But for Shopify, we only create design mockups if the budget is high enough for a fully custom Santa Ana ecommerce website development.
- Can you help Santa Ana business owners choose the right platform for their ecommerce site? WebCitz helps Santa Ana clients choose the right ecommerce platform. Typically, the answer is based on the website development and ecommerce requirements.
- Can you tell me how fast Santa Ana ecommerce web development works? WebCitz usually gets Santa Ana ecommerce website development projects done in 3-4 months, but it can take up to 9-12 months for complex ecommerce websites.
- Your Santa Ana ecommerce web designer should have an ecommerce portfolio or client reviews. Check out our ecommerce development portfolio, ecommerce case studies, and dozens of client reviews!
How We Design the Best Santa Ana Ecommerce Sites
Efforts to design an ecommerce site in Santa Ana should follow a formal process. Here's how we design Santa Ana ecommerce sites:
1.) Discovery Phone Calls
In a discovery call, we learn about your Santa Ana company, your ecommerce history, your development expectations, and your future plans. Having everyone involved in the ecommerce project voice their opinion helps minimize confusion.
2.) Kickoff Discussion
If you're happy with our ecommerce web design company for your Santa Ana website development, just sign the proposal, pay a down payment, and schedule your kickoff call! Everybody will have a chance to talk about how the project will unfold, who will handle each stage of the design, and how long the turnaround time will be for completion.
3.) Design Mockup or Theme Selection
We'll start with mockups for your Santa Ana ecommerce website development if it's built in WordPress with WooCommerce or if your budget allows a custom design built in Shopify. This way, everyone is on the same page about how your website will look and feel before an ecommerce developer starts. If you've chosen a template-based approach within Shopify, this is the phase where we start helping you pick a theme for your Santa Ana ecommerce site.
4.) Ecommerce Web Development
The longest part of your Santa Ana ecommerce build will be the development. Data migration, theme customization, functionality development, and more! A password-protected development website lets you follow along.
5.) Website Launch (Plus Website Training!)
When the ecommerce website design project is nearly done, we'll start working with you on training. If you're comfortable with managing the ecommerce site, let's schedule a time that works for everyone to launch your Santa Ana ecommerce site! You can even get a checklist for launching the ecommerce website if you're interested!

Corey was extremely helpful and spent a considerable amount of time going over my difficulties with a newly created website put together by someone else. I was under a very stressful deadline and he was extremely considerate and helpful. He managed to fix the problems that I was experiencing with my website. I had reached out to a number of website developers for help but only heard back from Webcity and Corey got back to me within minutes!
