The Best Ecommerce Platform for Your Kentucky Website

To recommend the best ecommerce platform for your Kentucky ecommerce company we will need to talk with you about your website's objectives. There isn't one ecommerce platform that works for all Kentucky businesses.

For WooCommerce and Shopify projects, we have separate development teams. We can provide expert advice and service because our local ecommerce developers specialize in their own preferred ecommerce platforms.

Kentucky WooCommerce Website Design Services

WordPress is the most popular content management system for Kentucky websites. When you run an ecommerce website with WordPress, you'll probably need a WooCommerce website designer in Kentucky.

We've helped startups and existing ecommerce companies get started with WooCommerce in Kentucky or other parts of the United States.

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce web developers tend to recommend WooCommerce:

  • If you need a custom template, 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 Kentucky WooCommerce websites. Shopify theme development can be more expensive for Kentucky ecommerce customers.
  • We recommend WooCommerce for Kentucky organizations with an existing WordPress website. If you are happy with the look and feel of your content-based website, why invest the time and money into rebuilding that site just to add ecommerce?
  • The web agencies in Kentucky who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. You don't have to pay a monthly fee to use WordPress or WooCommerce. Alternatively, Shopify has high monthly fees to use the platform and their apps are often much more expensive than WordPress or WooCommerce plugins.
  • Most Kentucky small businesses that want a product builder should consider 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 Kentucky websites running Shopify that need a product configurator.
  • We recommend WooCommerce for those in an industry not accepted by Shopify.

Kentucky Shopify Website Development Services

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce website using Shopify, you'll need a Shopify web designer in Kentucky.

Our Shopify web development team has experience designing websites for new and existing businesses throughout Kentucky within the Shopify platform.

Here are some reasons our ecommerce developers like Shopify:

  • For Kentucky merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Kentucky without constantly updating plugins and software.
  • We recommend Shopify for Kentucky web companies without a lot of custom functionality requirements. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees that really add up, in comparison to the less expensive WordPress plugin options.
  • Shopify is a great option for Kentucky ecommerce businesses that need fast delivery times for marketing and development. It is often faster to set up a Shopify website to test out a new product and cycle through various apps and ideas to test conversion optimization plans.

5 Ways to Grow Your Ecommerce Business

Kentucky Ecommerce Web Developers

Rebuilding Existing Ecommerce Storefronts

If you are unhappy with the performance, functionality, or conversion rate of your Kentucky ecommerce website it might be time to think about a remake of your site.

Every Kentucky ecommerce redesign project deserves exceptional care. It's possible to lose search rankings and online sales if your web designer 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 web redesign in Kentucky. Here are some of the important factors to consider when redesigning Kentucky ecommerce websites:

  • How do people reach your Kentucky ecommerce website? If your online sales come mostly from organic search traffic, you'll need to maintain URL structures and use 301 redirects. Maintain the same product categories, breadcrumb trails, and content throughout the development of your Kentucky website.
  • What do customers think of your Kentucky website? Making big changes to your website is okay if your online shoppers aren't happy. It's advisable to be cautious with design tweaks if you've already got good conversion rates.
  • Are you moving your ecommerce platform? If so, understand the new Kentucky site will function differently than your previous website. The way you enter products, fulfill orders, update customer information, and go through the checkout will be different.

Determine Goals for Your Kentucky Ecommerce Development Service

Building out an ecommerce website in Kentucky can be an expensive project. You should make a list of the goals you'd like to see achieved by a Kentucky ecommerce web designer before you hire them. Keeping track of measurable goals will help you keep your ecommerce website progressing in the right direction. We've seen these goals for Kentucky ecommerce web development projects:

  • To build out an online site for a new Kentucky ecommerce venture.
  • To migrate an legacy Kentucky ecommerce systems into a new platform to improve functionality or website security.
  • Redesigning an ecommerce website in order to improve UX, reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.
  • To make shopping faster and the website more responsive.
  • To fix web accessibility glitches for ADA and WCAG compliance.

Questions to Ask Your Kentucky Ecommerce Website Developer

There are numerous questions to ask your Kentucky ecommerce web design company before making a hiring decision. Even though the answer is important, how it's delivered is more important. Check to see how receptive the sales team is to detailed questions. You'll get a good idea for how things will be when the Kentucky ecommerce development service starts up. Here are some common ecommerce web development questions we get asked by ecommerce businesses in and around Kentucky:

  • Do you outsource ecommerce website development services? At WebCitz, we don't outsource ecommerce web design services because we have our own team of Shopify and WooCommerce developers.
  • When the URLs change, do you create 301 redirects? WebCitz tries to keep the URL structure the same, but this is often not feasible during platform migrations. We create 301 redirects for Kentucky ecommerce web developments that have different URL structures.
  • When you start an ecommerce website development project, do you make design mockups? WebCitz makes design mockups for all Kentucky WooCommerce development projects, but we don't create design mockups for Shopify projects that are on a restricted budget.
  • Do you help Kentucky business owners select the platform for their ecommerce website? WebCitz does help Kentucky clients select the platform for their ecommerce website. Generally, the answer depends on your web design and ecommerce needs.
  • What's the delivery time for Kentucky ecommerce web design services? WebCitz typically completes most Kentucky-area ecommerce development projects within 3-4 months, but they can take up to 9-12 months for highly complex ecommerce websites.

How We Design the Best Kentucky Ecommerce Websites

You should expect Kentucky ecommerce website design firms to have a formal process for how a new ecommerce website will be developed. Here's how we make Kentucky ecommerce websites:

1.) Discovery Phone Calls

In a discovery call, we learn about your Kentucky small business, your ecommerce history, your development expectations, and your future plans. This helps ensure everyone working on your project has an opportunity to voice their opinion, which goes a long way to minimizing confusion throughout the ecommerce project.

2.) Kickoff Meeting

If you're happy with our ecommerce web design agency for your Kentucky website development, just sign the proposal, pay a down payment, and schedule your kickoff call! There will be a chance for everyone involved in the project to have a discussion about how the project will unfold, who will be responsible for each stage of the design, and how long the turnaround time will be for each phase.

3.) Design Mockups or Template Selection

We'll start with mockups for your Kentucky ecommerce web design 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. This is where we start helping you select a template for your Kentucky ecommerce website if you opted for a template-based approach within Shopify.

4.) Ecommerce Website Development

The longest phase of your Kentucky ecommerce build will be the development process. It includes data migration, theme customization, functionality development, and more! Throughout the process, you'll be able to follow along via a password-protected development website.

5.) Website Training & Launch

As soon as the ecommerce web development project is finished, we'll provide you with any training you need. If you're comfortable with managing the ecommerce site, let's schedule a time that works for everyone to launch your Kentucky ecommerce site! You can even get a checklist for launching the ecommerce site if you're interested!

We've been working on our Kentucky ecommerce web design process for more than 18 years. We have a tremendous amount of experience planning, designing, developing, and launching successful ecommerce web sites throughout the United States!

WebCitz helped the Oshkosh Area Humane Society with our new website and they were great to work with. Responsive, professional and affordable. I think the biggest perk for us was having someone local we could talk to for assistance instead of long wait times. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking to start up or revamp their website.

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!
