Thread: Ecommerce Web Site

What are the key points while creating an ecommerce site?
I want to know all essential things related to ecommerce web site development. I know it is quite difficult and different to other web site development work.
Can any one tell me some important points here?

For a successful E-Commerce website you have to consider following key points:

1. Fast Speed and Professional Looks - Your website should load fast and designed in a very professional way according to your market theme to attract visitors and get their confidence. Then only they can convert into the customer from a visitor.

2. Merchant Account - You need to have a merchant account so that you can accept major credit cards because most of the people do online shopping with credit cards only. Having a premium account in Paypal, MoneyBrookers will be very useful in this case.

3. Shopping Cart and Secure Server - For any E-Commerce site, shopping cart is a must and most of the hosting company provide them either free or with some nominal charge. Also you should have SSL enabled for secure transaction, its a must for any E-Commerce website. Most of the hosting providers provide this facility with nominal charges per year.

4. Payment Gateway - These are the web services that serves as the link between your website and credit card payments. You can easily find it by googling and take one suitable for you.

I hope you will find this information helpful.
