Which eCommerce Website Development Technology is Best?

1.         Which eCommerce  Website  Development  Technology is the  Best?                             

2.   There are 182,000 active ecommerce sites. The competition is tough, you don’t                         have the right to make mistakes, and you have to make the right choices from the                                 start. There are several available options for e-commerce website development                     technologies. Depending on the complexity of your project and the budget/time at                         your disposal, you can outsource your ecommerce development.        A good ecommerce and mobile app consultant will generally use an open source                           CMS like Prestashop or Magento, or else decide to build your site with a “turnkey”                               solution and hosted with Wix, Shopify or Oxatis. Whatever type of solution you                           choose, the most important is to know the best ecommerce practices and have a                             good working methodology.    A well-developed ecommerce solution creates a link between the buyer and the                         seller of goods or services via the Internet and allows the transfer of money or data                                 in order to execute these transactions. The realization of an ecommerce project                         goes   through   different   phases:   specifications,   choice   of   CMS   and tools,     construction of the product catalog, monitoring of development and finally SEO                       optimization and launch preparation.    1 

3.   We’ve tried to summarize the best platform for ecommerce websites that you can                           leverage along with ​ecommerce technology trends so you can choose the one that works best for you.                              Shopify  Shopify has been specially designed for small businesses with an extremely simple                         installation process. You can take advantage of this solution without any developer                         skills. The simplest solution of all, providing a full service subscription + hosting                           services and integrated features to improve SEO.    Benefits  ● Easy to put in place  ● Cost effective, low start-up costs  ● Based on subscription  ● Good solution for a small e-commerce site    Disadvantages  ● Performance issues with more references, for example: 500-1,000 + items  ● Not as customizable as dedicated professional online stores  ● Better performance and SEO can be achieved with a customized store    Prestashop  PrestaShop is an ‘open source’ e-commerce solution, existing since 2007. With this                         platform, you can create stores in the cloud or via self-hosting. This e-commerce                           web technology is easy to use and offers a powerful online store interface and is                               good for buyers. Although it is one of the free Ecommerce tools and technology, it                               is rich in a wide range of complementary features.

It has an excellent                                   CMS (Content Management System) which allows you to create new articles or                         pages very easily without any development. The WooCommerce plugin grants all                       the necessary online store services. WordPress is a perfect choice in the case of a                               small e-commerce site where the “intro” section of the site is also important.    Benefits  ● Easy to put in place  ● Profitable  ● Good solution for an SME’s e-commerce site  ● Open source – Continuously improved by a large number of developers  3 

5.     Disadvantages  ● Not scalable  ● Performance issues with more SKUs, for example: 500-1,000 + items    Magento  Magento is the main autonomous platform for the development of online stores.                         This platform was developed for the management of large online stores. It can                           manage a large number of products (500+). It also has a very user-friendly CMS                             once it is properly configured. It is a little more complex to set up at the start,                                   which requires further development. This solution is suggested if the online sales                         function is the key function of the site and the site has to manage a large number of                                     products.    Benefits  ● One of the best technologies for ​ecommerce website development  ● Stable performance even in the case of e-commerce sites with more than                         1,000 references  ● Can be personalized down to the smallest detail    Disadvantages  ● More complicated to configure, requires more development  ● Not a cost-effective solution for smaller online shops  ● It is an autonomous platform          4
