The Best Ecommerce Platform for Your Ogden Website

In order to recommend the best ecommerce platform for your Ogden business, we'll need to know what your goals are. There isn't one e-commerce platform that's perfect for every Ogden website.

To deliver amazing ecommerce development services in Ogden, we have different development teams for WooCommerce projects and Shopify projects. We can provide expert advice and service because our local ecommerce web developers specialize in their own preferred ecommerce platforms.

Ogden WooCommerce Web Development Services

The most popular Ogden website content management system is WordPress. When you run an ecommerce website with WordPress, you'll probably need a WooCommerce website developer in Ogden.

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

Here are some of the reasons our ecommerce website designers tend to recommend WooCommerce:

• We recommend WordPress and WooCommerce for Ogden web design projects that need a custom theme, but are on a budget. Based on Understrap, our own WooCommerce theme is a great starting point for Ogden WooCommerce web designs. Theme development for Ogden e-commerce clients is usually more expensive on Shopify.
• If your Ogden 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.
• The web companies in Ogden who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. You don't have to pay a monthly fee for WordPress or WooCommerce, just for web hosting. If you want to use Shopify, you might have to pay a lot of money for the platform, and their apps are often a lot more expensive than WordPress or WooCommerce plugins.
• We recommend WooCommerce for most Ogden businesses that require a product builder. It's easier to build a product builder on WordPress than most other platforms. However, there are apps for Ogden web companies running Shopify that offer product configurators.
• WooCommerce is great if you're in an industry that's not accepted by Shopify.

Ogden Shopify Web Development Services

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

A lot of our Shopify developers have experience designing websites for new and existing businesses in Utah.

Our ecommerce developers love Shopify for these reasons:

• We recommend Shopify for Ogden merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce platform. If you want to run an ecommerce business in Ogden, you don't have to worry about constantly updating plugins or software.
• For Ogden web companies that don't need a lot of custom features, we recommend Shopify. It's more expensive to develop custom functionality in Shopify than WordPress. Additionally, Shopify apps often have monthly fees that really add up, in comparison to the less expensive WordPress plugin options.
• The best e-commerce platform for Ogden 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

It might be time to rethink your Ogden ecommerce website if you're not happy with its performance, functionality, or conversion rate.

Take your e-commerce redesign in Ogden seriously. You can lose search rankings and sales if your Ogden ecommerce website designer forgets to create 301 redirects, changes your URL structure drastically, or reorganizes your product catalog.

We like to know your whole business before we start an e-commerce website redesign in Ogden. You should consider these factors when redesigning Ogden ecommerce sites:

• You have an e-commerce site in Ogden. 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. Maintain the same product categories, breadcrumb trails, and content throughout the development of your Ogden website.
• What do customers think of your Ogden website? It's okay to make big changes to your website if your online shoppers aren't happy. Consider being more conservative with design changes if your conversion rates are already good.
• Do you plan to migrate your e-commerce 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 Ogden Ecommerce Web Design Service

Building an ecommerce website in Ogden can be expensive. Make a list of the things you want your Ogden e-commerce website to accomplish before you hire a developer. This will help keep you on track during the design of your e-commerce site, and set measurable goals for later. We've seen these goals for Ogden ecommerce website design projects:

• Create a new e-commerce site for your Ogden-based company.
• Upgrade an old Ogden e-commerce system into a new one to improve security or functionality.
• Redesigning an e-commerce site in order to improve user experience (UX), reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.
• To make shopping faster and the website more responsive.
• To fix web accessibility issues for ADA and WCAG compliance.

It's great to be able to help you with your new ecommerce website development in Utah! Let us help you put together a list of goals for your ecommerce website if your Ogden e-commerce company needs help!

Questions to Ask Your Ogden Ecommerce Web Designer

You should ask your Ogden ecommerce web design company a lot of questions. While the answer will be valuable, how it's delivered should be even more important. Pay attention to whether the sales team is willing to answer detailed questions. You'll get a good idea for how things will be when the Ogden ecommerce development service starts up. We get asked these ecommerce web development questions a lot by Utah e-commerce businesses:

• 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.
• When the URLs change, do you create 301 redirects? WebCitz tries to keep the URL structure the same, but this is often not possible during platform migrations. For Ogden ecommerce development, we do 301 redirects with a different URL structure.
• Do you make design mockups before starting a new ecommerce website design? For Ogden WooCommerce development, WebCitz creates design mockups. But for Shopify, we only create design mockups if the budget is high enough for a fully custom Ogden ecommerce web development.
• Can you help Ogden business owners choose the right platform for their e-commerce site? WebCitz helps Ogden clients choose the right ecommerce platform. Generally, the answer depends on your web design and e-commerce needs.
• Can you tell me how fast Ogden ecommerce website development works? WebCitz usually gets most Ogden-area ecommerce sites up and running within 3-4 months, but it can take up to 9-12 months for really complicated ones.
• Does your Ogden ecommerce web designer have a design portfolio or client reviews? WebCitz has an ecommerce website design portfolio, numerous e-commerce case studies, and dozens of client reviews!

How We Design the Best Ogden Ecommerce Websites

If you want a new e-commerce website, you should expect Ogden ecommerce development agencies to have a formal process for how they do it. Here's how we design Ogden ecommerce sites:

Multiple Discovery Phone Calls

In a discovery call, we learn about your Ogden company, your ecommerce history, 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 Discussion

If you're happy with our ecommerce website development firm for your Ogden 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.

Design Mockups or Template Selection

If your future Ogden ecommerce website design is built with WordPress and WooCommerce, or if your design budget can handle a custom design in Shopify, then the first phase of the project starts with mocking up your website. This helps everyone agree on the look and feel of your website before an e-commerce developer starts working on it. If you've chosen a template-based approach within Shopify, this is the phase where we start helping you pick a theme for your Ogden ecommerce site.

Ecommerce Web Design

The longest part of your Ogden ecommerce build will be the development. It includes data migration, theme customization, functionality development, and more! A password-protected development website lets you follow along.

Training & Launch

Once the ecommerce development project is close to completion, we'll start working with you to provide any necessary training. We'll schedule a time that works for everyone to launch your Ogden e-commerce storefront once you're comfortable managing it. We can even share a checklist for launching the ecommerce site if you're interested!

We've been improving this Utah ecommerce web development process for more than 18 years. We have incredible experience designing, developing, and launching successful e-commerce websites throughout United States!
