Pricing for Vermont Ecommerce Website Development Services

Our pricing for ecommerce development services is based on how much time you can invest in building your online store. To save money, we advise those with limited budgets to consider template-based ecommerce websites as an alternative. If customization and performance are crucial factors, you might want to consider a custom ecommerce website built from scratch, starting with a design mockup.

The Best Ecommerce Platform for Your Vermont Website

If your Vermont ecommerce company needs a platform recommendation, we need to know what your website's goals are. There isn't one ecommerce platform that works for all Vermont organizations.

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

Vermont WooCommerce Website Development Services

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

In Vermont, we help startups and ecommerce businesses get started with WooCommerce.

These are some of the reasons our ecommerce website designers like WooCommerce:

• We recommend WordPress and WooCommerce for Vermont web development projects that require a custom designed template, but are working on a limited budget. Based on Understrap, our own WooCommerce theme is a good starting point for Vermont WooCommerce web designs. Theme development within Shopify is often more expensive for Vermont ecommerce customers.
• If your Vermont organization 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 firms in Vermont who prefer open-source software use WooCommerce. You don't have to pay a monthly fee for WordPress or WooCommerce, just for website hosting. Alternatively, Shopify has high monthly fees to use the platform and their apps are often much more expensive than WordPress or WooCommerce plugins.
• For Vermont small businesses that need a product builder, we recommend WooCommerce. It is simply easier to develop a custom product builder in WordPress than most other platforms. Don't worry though, there are third-party apps for Vermont websites running Shopify that need a product configurator.
• If you're in an industry that's not supported by Shopify, try WooCommerce.

Vermont Shopify Website Development Services

Shopify is the most popular SaaS ecommerce platform. To run an ecommerce website using Shopify you will likely be searching for a Shopify web designer in Vermont.

With our Shopify web development company, we can design a website for a new or existing business in Vermont that runs on the Shopify platform.

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

• For Vermont merchants interested in a hosted ecommerce system, we recommend Shopify. With Shopify, you can run an ecommerce business in Vermont without constantly updating plugins and software.
• When Vermont web agencies 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, Shopify apps often have monthly fees versus WooCommerce plugins that are more affordable.
• Shopify is a great option for Vermont 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 tactics.

Redesigning Existing Ecommerce Sites

Vermont ecommerce sites that don't perform, don't function, or don't convert well might need a redo.

Every Vermont ecommerce redesign project deserves exceptional care. For instance, you may lose search rankings and online sales if your Vermont ecommerce web designer forgets to create 301 redirects, drastically changes your URL structure, or reorganizes your product catalog.

Vermont ecommerce web redesign starts with a thorough review of your ecommerce business to understand the big picture. Here are some of the important factors to consider when redesigning Vermont ecommerce websites:

• You have an ecommerce website in Vermont. 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 Vermont website.
• What do customers think about your Vermont website? If your online shoppers aren't happy with the design of the website then it is okay to make big tweaks. Consider being more conservative with design changes if your conversion rates are already good.
• Are you migrating ecommerce platforms? 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 Vermont Ecommerce Website Design Package

You can pay a lot of money to build an ecommerce website in Vermont. You should make a list of the goals you'd like to see achieved by a Vermont ecommerce website developer before you hire them. This will help keep you on track throughout the design of your ecommerce website, and set measurable objectives for later. Here are some of the goals we've seen for Vermont ecommerce web design projects:

• To build out an online website for a new Vermont ecommerce venture.
• Upgrade an old Vermont ecommerce system into a new one to improve security or functionality.
• Rebuilding an ecommerce site in order to improve user experience, reduce bounce rates, and improve conversion rates.
• Improving the shopping experience by making it faster and more responsive.
• To fix web accessibility errors for ADA and WCAG compliance.

We've provided such Vermont ecommerce development solutions before and are excited by the prospect of helping with your new ecommerce web development! Let us help you put together a list of goals for your ecommerce website if your Vermont ecommerce company needs help!

Questions to Ask Your Vermont Ecommerce Web Designer

You should ask plenty of questions before hiring an ecommerce development company in Vermont. Even though the answer is important, how it's delivered is more important. 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. Here are some common ecommerce website development questions we get asked by ecommerce businesses in and around Vermont:

• Is your ecommerce web design outsourced? At WebCitz, we don't outsource ecommerce website design services because we have our own team of Shopify and WooCommerce developers.
• If you change URLs, do you set up 301 redirects? While WebCitz tries to keep the URL structure the same, sometimes it can't be done. We do create 301 redirects for Vermont ecommerce developments that will have a different URL structure.
• Do you make design mockups before starting a new ecommerce web development? WebCitz creates design mockups for all Vermont WooCommerce developments, but we only create a design mockup for Shopify projects that have a higher budget for a fully custom Vermont ecommerce website development.
• Can you help Vermont organization owners choose the right platform for their ecommerce site? WebCitz helps Vermont clients choose the right ecommerce platform. Generally, the answer depends on your website design and ecommerce needs.
• Can you tell me how fast Vermont ecommerce website development works? WebCitz typically completes most Vermont-area ecommerce web design projects within 3-4 months, but they can take up to 9-12 months for highly complex ecommerce websites.
• Your Vermont ecommerce website designer should have a ecommerce portfolio or client reviews. WebCitz has an ecommerce development portfolio, numerous ecommerce case studies, and dozens of client reviews to share!

How We Design the Best Vermont Ecommerce Websites

Efforts to design an ecommerce website in Vermont should follow a formal process. Here's how we make Vermont ecommerce websites:

1.) Multiple Discovery Calls

There are usually multiple discovery calls to learn more about your Vermont organization, your history with ecommerce, 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 Discussion

If you're happy with our ecommerce development company for your Vermont site 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 Mockups or Template Search

If your future Vermont ecommerce website design is in WordPress with WooCommerce, or your design budget accommodates a custom design in Shopify, then the first phase of the project will begin with mocking up the design of your website. This helps everyone agree on the look and feel of your website before an ecommerce developer starts working on it. Alternatively, if you selected a template-based approach within Shopify, this is the phase where we start helping you select a template for your Vermont ecommerce site.

4.) Ecommerce Web Design

The longest part of your Vermont 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.

5.) Website Training & Launch

When the ecommerce website development project is nearly done, we'll start working with you on training. When you are comfortable managing the ecommerce website, we'll schedule a time that works for everyone involved to launch your future Vermont ecommerce storefront! You can even get a checklist for launching the ecommerce website if you're interested!

We've been optimizing our Vermont ecommerce website design process for more than 18 years. We have incredible experience designing, developing, and launching successful ecommerce websites throughout the United States!

Additional Services for Your Vermont Ecommerce Development Project

The development of the website is only one part of a successful ecommerce storefront in Vermont. Here are a few optional extras that will help you get the most from your Vermont ecommerce website:

• We've got an onsite website advertising and SEO team to help rank your ecommerce products higher in Vermont search results, or nationwide.
• We have a paid advertising team who can help you with any campaign type on Google Ads, Facebook Ads, or Bing Ads.
