With this continuous lockdown as a result of the covid19 pandemic, business owners in East Africa are now adopting the use of online shops and the need of online stores as increased. At Sakiwa web solutionz we know and develop for clients what is need for an online store
What is needed for an online store set up
STORE PRODUCT LIST: The measure of items on the store decides the server prerequisites and labor for developing it. It’s not professional to come up with the price before getting to know what the client needs and how his/her budget stands for the project. For a huge store base, you will require unlimited web hosting to cater for the bandwidth, hosting space and disk space that can deal with traffic. A huge store typically comprises of in excess of 2000 items and each picture occupies on a devoted disk space.
WEBSITE CONTENT: The most significant part is the content, item description, images, etc. A store with an immense measure of items will require more exertion than a private company site with just 30 items. Web based business shopping platform accompanies a dashboard that helps non-specialized shoppers/visitors to do shopping in a simple but yet a secure way. Other things to consider are Terms and Conditions , the return and shipping policy.
STORE FUNCTIONALITY AND STORE AUTOMATION: ecommerce platforms have added on that facilitate customized options for example; clients want a feature that allows customers to customize their clothing or products and see the results in real-time. Shipping and tracing from a courier company. Maybe they want to offer a membership subscription or multi-vendor option where vendors can have their own shop page in your store. Other adds on could be a booking event component. These types of features require extensive programming and would allow for larger budgets for the design and development of these features. A startup company has to rely on built-in features or plug-ins to enhance their user experience that would not require customized programming.
PAYMENT GATEWAY INTEGRATION TO YOUR STORE: Most website owners in east Africa do not have the technology or budget to handle the processing of customer payments via a Merchant bank account. The solution is to pay a small fee to a secure payment gateway to process all your transactions. At Sakiwa web solutionz, we will integrate a payment gateway as part of the service offering.
