Before trading online or considering an ecommerce solution you should be aware of the requirements with regard to selling online.
The IT and ECOMMERCE SECTION of the government's business link pages provides a wealth of information on online trading. Links to some of the pages that may be of interest to you are listed below.
Creating an online shop or Accepting online Payments
You can also visit the DTI's website on how to take electronic payments (Note that the Business Link pages provide a printer friendly way of printing out all of the information on their site. )
Trading OnlineWe can offer you a great online shopping solution that will have you trading online in no time at all. For this we can offer several online trading software packages from the vendor of your choice. We can use online shopping software applications that are very flexible allowing your online store to be developed just as you want it.
We can also provide shops based on open source shopping carts like OSCommerce. This has all the functionality of commercial eshopping software and more than enough to satisfy the requirements of most online shopkeepers. Ecommerce web sites developed with OSCommerce are much less expensive. We can show you examples of these.
The answer to this is another question - why re-invent the wheel? Ecommerce Web designers would no more try to develop their own eCommerce software than they would try to develop an alternative for Microsoft Word.
These packages are tried and tested and very cost-effective. Developing a new one from scratch would cost many thousands of pounds.
Website Management for E-CommerceWe can also offer an e-commerce website management service but if your e-commerce website sees a lot of targeted traffic and requires regular updates then you will probably want to do this yourself.
If updates to your site are infrequent you may have problems remembering how to actually do the updates. In this case you should consider a website update service.
