Ecommerce websites is designed keeping one goal in focus- online purchases. An ecommerce designer needs to consider a set of selling principles while creating an ecommerce enabled site. A few may ask why ecommerce website designs are different from any other website designs. They all need to be attractive, well organized and use the right colors that fits the website goal. Take a look at some successful ecommerce site and you will realize the conceptual differences that lie within. An ecommerce website should consist of the following selling principles: 1. A customer should have a pleasant experience during navigating through website & online purchase. 2. The site should provide sufficient information about the products and should cover the reasons to trust its authenticity. 3. The website should be to the best use to the users. If it isn’t, the visitor might exit and visit a competitor’s site. 4. Users need to be assured of a credible and trustworthy payment gateway system. These are fundamentals which have been in long in writing; but the main challenge for every web designer is to apply these conventional marketing techniques to their creative designs. Unlike an offline store which provides the user with the sensory experiences of smell and touch, a website will never be able to match the experience but can engage the user by its aestheticism and design qualities. The Web might be an expensive mode to sell products but it’s still much easier than renting out retail space and storing products.A good ecommerce website will shorten the number of clicks required to do a transaction. Designers may use different techniques but the best option is to show all products and information upfront so that even if the user isn't convinced they can continue to read more facts and testimonials about the products.
