What happens when you run into obstacles?

Bad things do happen to many e-Commerce websites and companies. Instead of being a downer, we view this is an opportunity to be even more prepared and aware, which can save you a lot of trouble down the road.

Why You Should Embrace Minimalism in Your eCommerce Business

by DVP on April 15, 2018 0 Comments

“Less is more” is one of the mantras for minimalism, a trend that’s being currently being embraced by many. Being minimal doesn’t mean having the bare bones, however; it’s about having the right amount, whatever that amount is – it’s dependent on the person, or in this case, business!

So much of achieving e-Commerce success relies on the right message about the right product delivered at the right time to the right customer. When talking about e-Commerce solutions and minimalism, it’s really about a streamlined approach to business and making use of what you have. Elegant is a word that is used with minimalism because it’s simple but not bare or basic. It’s not clunky. In e-Commerce, it can mean an all-in-one integrated approach to the solution and in-NAV management of all website components. The result is a fresh feel and improved business agility that flows while providing an engaging experience for customers. For a business, it leaves more time and a better foundation for growing the business.

Here are some ways your business can achieve and benefit from a minimalistic approach to e-Commerce:

by DVP on April 10, 2018 0 Comments

Web services are sometimes overlooked when researching e-Commerce solutions and features. And we get it; it’s not immediately obvious as to why it’s relevant and how you can benefit. In a nut shell, web services help devices communicate without complex and time-consuming coding to share business logic, data, and processes across a network.

Rules and structure can be set up in the server and web services make it so applications all understand one another, resulting in improved functionality and greater efficiency.

Turning Search Results into Selling Opportunities

by DVP on August 23, 2016 0 Comments

How can we make good webshop search great? Good search functions on your e-Commerce website means that customers find what they are looking for quickly and easily. It is efficient in interpreting keywords into relevant search results, and can include auto-complete options or search for item number, name, and description. For example if a customer wanted to find a specific product but couldn’t remember the exact name, they could put in descriptor words to find the item they want. Search functions can also be used to bypass categories if a shopper didn’t feel like they had the time to go that route or just prefer the search bar as their primary approach to online shopping. Having good search alone really improves user experience and it’s become one of the expected features of any e-Commerce website. In today’s business environment, good needs to become great.
