Ecommerce Website Design and Development: Step by Step Guide to launch your own

Hello Friends,

I am here writing on the step by step guide to launch your own ecommerce website to sell your products and services. Everyone who has got little experience about selling products online, they are ready to launch their own ecommerce website. Every person who is running their small business wants to have one commerce website to sell their products online too. It is the newest concept in the internet marketing era. Do you also want to sell your products online?

I am here to guide you the step by step guide to launch your own eCommerce website.

Please cooperate with me to write on the same (Comments and Suggestions are requested). First of all you have to decide that what you are going to sell?

1) Decide Products or services: Select products or services which you are going to sell on your ecommerce website. Make strategy for the same. I am going to brief all steps in very short through this blog post.


2) When you have finalized products or services, you have to grab one domain name with hosting. Choose the domain name with matching like your products or services or you can select the domain matching your brand name.

Notes: If you are targeting local countries, prefer to buy hosting space of the local server situated in your country.


3) Now you have got your domain and hosting. It is time to design your own eCommerce website and it will be a great challenge for you to get it developed. I will solve your issues in a nano second. There is much ecommerce software available in the market which can give you ready made ecommerce website like wordpress, Magento, OSCommerce, OpenCart. Just hire a web designer cum developer part time or full time (because it is a onetime setup only) and ask them to use the best ecommerce software application according to your business.

4) First impression is the last impression. You have to look at the design of your eCommerce website. It should be attractive and cool designed. Work with your web designer, it is the important phase while launching your own ecommerce website. Use your own logo, banners, headers, flash, images, videos designed by your own for brand promotion.

5) Now designing is done, you are jumping into the development part. It consists of various phases like coding JavaScript, html, backend (Database i.e. MySQL), payment gateway, shopping cart etc. That is why I have told you to hire web designer cum developer, so that he will be able to handle the development part too. It will cut your development cost.

6) Now your designing and development are done! I think. When this phase is completed, your products or services should be listing on your ecommerce website. Now you have to choose the payment gateway, it will be your own payment system or hosted, I mean to say that paypal or credit card. You have to decide.

There are two types of payment gateway

a) Own Payment Gateway
b) Hosted Payment Gateway (i.e. PayPal, Google Wallet)

7) Now your ecommerce website is ready to sell products. One problem you found while asking for payment. Nobody will pay you without security system like SSL security. People do not believe in online payment system easily. So implement SSL security encryption services legally for your ecommerce website.

8) Now everybody is going to pay you for your products and services without any fear. Now you need to think about the Shipment process, that's all.

“All Done. Your Ecommerce website is ready to embark into the world over. “

ü  Now start promoting your website to generate more and more sales.


Hope these help!
