We take a no-nonsense approach to designing your eCommerce website. Having created and sold a successful multi-million dollar eCommerce company ourselves, we have quite a bit of hands-on experience under our belts. With over 14 years of experience, we know what works, and what doesn't when it comes to eCommerce web design.
Our e-commerce sites are database-driven, allowing you to administer and manage the commerce end yourself. Need to add, remove, and/or edit your products? No problem. You can do it yourself. And more! Of course, it goes without saying that our e-commerce sites also offer very powerful features and functionality allowing you to run a first-class operation online. See below for a list of these eCommerce features.
Powerful eCommerce Solutions:
Because we have years of eCommerce web design experience, we're able to select from a number of well-known and powerful eCommerce solutions to create your custom online business. Which solution is right for you? We'll be able to determine that based on your specific needs and requirements. We offer custom development in the more popular ecommerce shopping carts:
- Miva Merchant 5.5
- Pinnacle Cart
- Interspire
- Business Catalyst
- Joomla! eCommerce
We create crisp, clean web designs that make that lasting first impression and focus on your customer's buying experience. We typically code layouts in CSS, resulting in higher performance and contributing to higher search engine rankings. All our site designs include on-page search engine optimization, something many designers neglect to do, or they charge extra for it.
Special Note for Business-2-Business Companies:
eCommerce is NOT just for retail! If you are a manufacturer, wholesaler, or distributor, you still need a powerful online solution for you and your customers. The Misfits are just as capable in business-2-business eCommerce design. We can create your site so your online catalog can be viewed by the public (or not), but prices are not visible. Only when an actual customer logs into your site will they see their prices. You can set up different price groups, so if an "Export" customer logs in, they will only see their respective pricing. Your customers can still place orders 24 hours a day, whether it's open account, COD, or prepaid via credit card. Lots more features. AND we can custom program features not normally available.
