How to create an e-commerce website

In simple terms, an e-commerce website will sell your products rather than just being an online catalogue or brochure.

Whether you require a standard ‘click and purchase’ site or a more complex bespoke shopping cart system, The Blue Cube team will build the e-commerce site that best suits you and your customers.

The Blue Cube can also promote your business on the web, to maximise the number of people who buy on your site. Investing in an e-commerce website is very likely to positively affect your turnover – we’re speaking from experience.

The system we’ll provide you with, has many of the same features as e-commerce websites that cost thousands of pounds.

If you are reading this from a small to medium size business, don’t think that the benefits of e-commerce are restricted to bigger businesses. E-commerce can increase the efficiency and turnover of all types of organisations, allowing everyone to compete equally.

Investing in an e-commerce site means that customers can research and purchase your products or services, from anywhere in the world, at any time of day of day or night.

You might be concerned that it will take forever to transfer all your stock or brochure information onto a website, but remember, we do this all the time and are fast and efficient. All of our e-commmerce websites can be customised to suit individual requirements. You might want to set up a Paypal link, or perhaps it would be useful to print invoices or contact customers directly, via the website.

Wed, 03 Feb 2010

The newsletter opt in has become almost ubiquitous on websites these days. No matter what the product or service of the site in question, it will more likely have a little newsletter opt-in box somewhere visible on the page. When a visitor fills in their name and email address, they will be eligible to receive a free newsletter. So, what exactly is a newsletter in the Internet sense?

The Value Of Bespoke Web Design
Thu, 21 Jan 2010

A bespoke web design is one that is custom made and unique to you. Because a design company has been asked to create web site especially for you, expect to pay more than you would if they were using a standard template, though perhaps edited for your particular needs. Of course, not all bespoke design companies are made the same. You need to know up front what you can expect to pay, what service they will provide and when they can be expected to deliver.
