What is an eCommerce Website?
Ecommerce, or electronic commerce, refers to transactions conducted via the internet. Every time individuals and companies are buying or selling products and services online they’re engaging in ecommerce. The term eCommerce also encompasses other activities including online auctions, internet banking, payment gateways, and online ticketing.
eCommerce has been growing at a steady rate all over the globe. 2020 saw a sharp increase in businesses moving online. This trend will continue. It is expected that by 2040, 95% of all purchases will be via eCommerce.
The benefits of running an e-commerce store are very clear to anyone who has ever purchased someone from an online store. The top reason why people make online purchases is that they can shop whenever they want, 24/7. In other words, the convenience to the customer is key. For the shop owner, the benefits of operating on the internet rather than a traditional brick and mortar store are also very clear; primarily the major cost saving and reduced business risk.
If you are considering opening an e-commerce store, you must consider what works for your industry. Not all online stores are built equal. A professionally designed and built eCommerce website is a combination of many strategic design and marketing factors:
-Beautiful and interactive website design. Around 93% of online shoppers declared that the visual appearance of an online store plays a key factor in their purchasing decisions.
–Responsive website design – to ensure your website is displayed correctly on all devices especially mobile. Around 51% of digital buyers conduct purchases via their smartphones.
-Integration with Paid ads such as Google Ads and Social Marketing.
-SEO (search engine optimisation) implementation and management – for organic traffic from Google. Around 43% of eCommerce traffic comes from Google search results (organic).
It is expected that eCommerce sales will reach $3.5 trillion by 2021. If you get any of these factors wrong with poor website design and/or poor digital marketing, you can expect to run a sinking ship instead of a successful eCommerce store.
So it’s clear as mud – eCommerce is booming. Now, how exactly do you get started?

Building the best website in the world means nothing if your customers can not actually finds your website. Digital Marketing is at the heart of all successful eCommerce stores. There are many digital marketing methods available.
