The Best Ecommerce Platform for Your Wildwood Website

To recommend the best ecommerce platform for your Wildwood e-commerce company we will need to talk with you about your website's objectives. There is no single e-commerce platform that is perfect for all Wildwood-area websites.

To deliver exceptional ecommerce web development services in Wildwood, we have separate development teams for WooCommerce projects than for Shopify projects. This gives our ecommerce website developers the chance to specialize in particular development environments to provide expert advice and help.

Wildwood WooCommerce Web Development Services

WordPress is the most popular content management system for Wildwood websites. To run an ecommerce website using WordPress you will likely be looking for a WooCommerce web designer in Wildwood.

We've helped startups and existing e-commerce companies get started with WooCommerce in Wildwood or other parts of United States.

These are some of the reasons our ecommerce website designers like 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 great starting point for Wildwood WooCommerce websites. Theme development for Wildwood e-commerce clients is usually more expensive on Shopify.
• We recommend WooCommerce for Wildwood businesses 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 redesigning that website just to add ecommerce?
• We recommend WooCommerce for Wildwood web companies who prefer open-source software. You don't have to pay a monthly fee to use WordPress or WooCommerce. As an alternative, Shopify has expensive monthly fees (depending on your plan) and their apps are often more expensive than WooCommerce or WordPress plugins.
• We recommend WooCommerce for most Wildwood businesses that require a product builder. It is simply easier to develop a custom product builder in WordPress than most other platforms. However, there are apps for Wildwood web companies running Shopify that offer product configurators.
• If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.

Wildwood Shopify Web Development Services

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

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce web developers often recommend Shopify:

• We recommend Shopify for Wildwood merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce business in Wildwood, you don't have to worry about constantly updating plugins or software.
• When Wildwood web companies don't need a lot of custom functionality, we recommend Shopify. It is often more expensive to develop custom functionality within Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• Shopify is a great option for Wildwood e-commerce businesses that need fast turnaround times for marketing and development. 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

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

You should approach Wildwood e-commerce redesign projects with exceptional care. For instance, you may lose search rankings and online sales if your Wildwood ecommerce web developer forgets to create 301 redirects, drastically changes your URL structure, or reorganizes your product catalog.

Wildwood ecommerce website redesign starts with a thorough review of your ecommerce business to understand the big picture. You should consider these factors when redesigning Wildwood ecommerce sites:

• How do people reach your Wildwood e-commerce website? If most online sales are coming from organic search traffic it will be critical to maintain URL structures or implement 301 redirects. Maintain the same product categories, breadcrumb trails, and content throughout the development of your Wildwood website.
• What do customers think about your Wildwood website? Making big changes to your website is okay if your online shoppers aren't happy. It's advisable to be cautious with design changes if you've already got good conversion rates.
• Do you plan to migrate your e-commerce platform? If so, understand the new Wildwood website 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 Wildwood Ecommerce Web Design Service

Building out an ecommerce website in Wildwood can be an expensive project. Before hiring a local ecommerce web designer, you should put together a list of goals you'd like to see achieved through the Wildwood ecommerce website design service. This will help keep you on track throughout the design of your e-commerce website, and set measurable objectives for later. Here are some of the goals we've seen for Wildwood ecommerce website design projects:

• Create a new e-commerce site for your Wildwood-based company.
• To migrate an legacy Wildwood ecommerce systems into a new platform to improve functionality or website security.
• To redesign an existing Wildwood e-commerce website in the same platform to improve user experience (UX), reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.

Questions to Ask Your Wildwood Ecommerce Web Designer

There are numerous questions to ask your Wildwood ecommerce web development company before making a hiring decision. While the answer will be valuable, even more important to you should be the manner in which the answer is given. Pay attention to how receptive the sales team is to being asked detailed questions. If you do this now, you'll get an idea of what to expect in future communication. We get asked these ecommerce web design questions a lot by Missouri e-commerce businesses:

• Do you outsource ecommerce development services? WebCitz does not outsource ecommerce web development services because we have our own team of Shopify and WooCommerce developers for your Wildwood e-commerce website.
• When the URLs change, do you create 301 redirects? While WebCitz tries to keep the URL structure the same, sometimes it can't be done. We create 301 redirects for Wildwood ecommerce website developments that have different URL structures.
• When you start an ecommerce website design project, do you make design mockups? For Wildwood WooCommerce development, WebCitz creates design mockups. But for Shopify, we only create design mockups if the budget is high enough for a fully custom Wildwood ecommerce web design.

How We Design the Best Wildwood Ecommerce Websites

You should expect Wildwood ecommerce web design agencies to have a formal process for how a new e-commerce website will be developed. Here is our process for designing Wildwood ecommerce websites:

Multiple Discovery Calls

There are usually multiple discovery calls to learn more about your Wildwood company, your history with ecommerce, your development expectations, and your future plans. By having everyone involved in the ecommerce project speak up, you'll minimize confusion and project delays.

Kickoff Meeting

If you feel confident about our ecommerce web development firm for your Wildwood website development, go ahead and sign the proposal, submit a down payment, and schedule your kick off 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.

Design Mockups or Template Search

We'll start with mockups for your Wildwood ecommerce website 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 site will look and feel before an e-commerce 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 Wildwood ecommerce site.

Ecommerce Web Development

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

Website Launch (Plus Website Training!)

Once the ecommerce web design project is close to completion, we'll start working with you to provide any necessary training. When you are comfortable managing the ecommerce website, we'll schedule a time that works for everyone involved to launch your future Wildwood e-commerce storefront! We can even share a checklist for launching the ecommerce site if you're interested!
