“There are many eCommerce platforms out there, but the six major platforms are Magento, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, osCommerce, b2evolution, and the IONOS eCommerce Website Builder. This comparison of the different e-commerce platforms can put things into perspective and help you decide on the best eCommerce platform for you and your store.”
“E-commerce platforms are usually based on a common programming language such as Java or PHP. To get the platform online, you either host it yourself or have it hosted for you in the cloud.”
“It can be hard to distinguish the difference between free open-source online store platforms and paid eCommerce solutions. So, what's the difference?”
“The advantages of an online store are that you can reach a whole new customer base, increase your sales, and be able to sell 24/7 without the limitations of a physical store.”
“The length of time it takes to create an online store depends on a number of factors and can vary based on the size of the shop, the tech used, the budget available, and the creator's IT skill level.”
“A managed store solution like the IONOS eCommerce Plugin takes the complexity out of running an online store. It works with all major CMS platforms — WordPress, Joomla!, TYPO3, and more — so you can plug it straight into your existing website.”
“Adding individual products or your entire product range to your existing website is very straightforward, whichever CMS you're using. It works just as well with a Wix website builder as with a more complex CMS like Joomla!.”
“Yes — and we've made it even easier with a dedicated WordPress plugin. Just log into your dashboard and download it directly.”
“Yes. We support all major CMS platforms out of the box, and anything else can be connected via HTML code. If your site can accept HTML, it can have a store.”
“Your store automatically adapts to your website's existing design. From there, you can customize further — adjust thumbnail sizes, change layouts, and more — all with just a few clicks.”
“An ecommerce website is a fantastic option for professional sellers and small businesses who want to gain new customers online and extend their reach. Unlike a few years ago when eCommerce website builders required some programming knowledge, today's more beginner-friendly site builders are so simple and cost-effective to set up that anyone can start selling online without any prior experience.”
“Although an attractive website and intuitive navigation are important when it comes to building your online store, the way you present your products or services should always be the main focus of your website. This means you should use high-quality images with good lighting to present your products in a positive light.”
“Depending on the number of products in you want to sell in your online store, you can be online from anywhere between a few hours to a full day. If you have any prior experience with website builders or other eCommerce platforms, you'll make quick work of your online store launch.”
“You can only select one currency for your shop. The selection is independent of your location.”
“In short, you’ll save time and get a great online store. Our eCommerce website design service is ideal for anyone who wants to start selling online but doesn’t have the time or skills needed.”
“You can order online directly or by giving us a call. If you’re interested in getting professional web design for eCommerce, but still have questions, call us at 1-913-808-4234. Our team will provide you with a free, no-obligation consultation.”
“We’ll take care of building your site and setting up the first 10 product listings for you. We’ll just need a little input from you along the way to make sure everything goes exactly the way you want.”
“As a general rule, your store should be online within 10–15 business days. After your initial call with the team, we’ll get a first draft to you as soon as possible.”
“Now your store is online, you can either make changes yourself or ask the team to make them for you. Use the built-in metrics to track your store’s performance and make adjustments to boost sales.”
“Yes, you can upgrade it at any time, either in the area where you manage your contract, or directly within the product.”
“No, creating a professional online store with extensive features with IONOS involves a small monthly fee. Services offering free eCommerce websites often don’t meet customer expectations.”
“Free online store builders are suited mainly to developers who know how to the specific technology provided.”
