eCommerce Website Development
Shopping Carts come in "all sizes and shapes" to fit a variety of purposes both simple and complex. We have done shopping carts for a single item and up to several hundred.
Because shopping cart technology draws from a "hidden" database into what are called dynamic pages (same page but different content drawn from the database), Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a little different than for static pages, i.e. regular web pages. Some of this is changing with new website technology and software solutions that make the hidden content visible to the Search Engines.
We use a variety of software depending on the particular use but all have the following basics:
- Automatic sales tax calculations/tax exempt.
- Real time credit card processing linked to your Bank.
- Automatic shipping calculation by standard UPS, FedEx or other
- Product optioning feature at product description page.
- Customer e-mail receipts and merchant e-mail confirmation.
- Searchable database.
- Automatic quantity/price calculations.
- Discounting on item by item basis, or whole order.
- Export to any accounting system software.
- Full client access to add and delete items, change prices, create purchase orders, shipping labels, packing slips, etc..
- Multi-national currency support.
- Track, change, and e-mail fulfillment status on an order by order basis to customers.
- Retrieve orders by range, date, company name, etc..
- Create sales summary reports by product, period, customer, etc.
