An e-commerce site powered by WordPress gives you the best of both worlds. With over 30% of annual UK sales now coming from the internet, there’s never been a better time to sell online.
We can provide an enterprise-level e-commerce system, enabling you to sell online. This could be physical products, digital downloads, services, memberships or subscriptions — all backed by the powerful WordPress platform, giving you full control and flexibility.
WordPress and e-commerce
Until recently, the e-commerce potential of WordPress was limited. The available plugins tended to be below par — some containing bugs, others providing a limited range of features. They couldn’t really compare with the bigger, more established platforms such as Magento, osCommerce or Shopify.
All that has changed in the last year as new systems have been released and existing ones updated, allowing e-commerce on WordPress to become a viable alternative. Some of the better e-commerce plugins now available include WooCommerce, Shopp and Cart66.
Everything in one place
You can now have a fully-featured e-commerce site running on top of the WordPress CMS, with all its benefits and flexibility. So your entire website — content, pages, blog articles, images, videos, product catalogue, customers, orders, etc. — can all be managed in the same place.
Fully-featured
Your e-commerce site can include a full range of features:
Product inventory — including product categories, stock control, image galleries and product variations.
Flexible shipping and tax calculations — flat-rate, table-rate, weight-based; multi-currency support.
Payment gateways — PayPal, Google Checkout, 2Checkout.com, eWay, Sage Pay and more.
Order tracking, receipts and invoices; customer accounts integrated with WordPress user management.
Admin and reporting — sales charts, Google Analytics integration, data export to 3rd party applications.
Email notifications and order status updates; mailing list integration — MailChimp, Aweber, CampaignMonitor.
Customer reviews, related products, affiliate programs, coupon codes, sales promotions and much more!
Tailored finish
Of course, we’ll make sure everything integrates seamlessly and works alongside your existing business processes and procedures. We can customise any aspect of the e-commerce system to meet your requirements.
A WordPress e-commerce solution will be the most cost-effective option for your business and give you maximum flexibility and future-proofing for your website.
