E-commerce solutions

Creating an E-Commerce site is not as difficult as it used to be.  Since the World Wide Web first came online and the dot com era came and went, technologists came together to create online shopping vehicles which empowered retail establishments.  Vehicles like osCommerce, Magento, and ZenCart have made setting up an online store as simple as making chocolate chip cookies. We built a turnkey e-commerce solution for Mardi Gras Gemoworks using osCommerce.  You can see view it here Mar-di Gras Gemworks

There are many ways to build an e-commerce solution, but in this particular case we had the client pick out a pre-fabricated template from Template Monster and we customized the logo as well as the back-end of the site.  Although we used a template to create this site, we could have as easily created the graphics and layout using a custom design generated from our graphics design team.

We integrated PayPal as their preferred method of payment, but we can also implement Authorize.net as well as Google Checkout for clients. 

After we completed the development work for this client, we set hosted the site for them on monthly plan.  We offer competitive rates and can scale your site's bandwidth as you grow your store online.  Along with hosting your site we can implement search engine optimization strategies to target your customer base and make your online store grow over time.  Contact us today to find out how we can help you grow.
