Online store
In an increasingly digital world, selling products online has become a necessity for any business looking to reach a wider audience and increase revenue. At Elefen, we specialize in developing WordPress websites, with particular expertise in creating high-performing and secure online stores. Using WooCommerce as our preferred solution, and sometimes Gravity Forms for simpler projects, we offer online stores optimized to meet our clients’ specific needs. Here, we will explore the benefits of selling online, the performance of WooCommerce stores, and the solutions we provide for efficient and secure sales management.
The Benefits of Selling Online
- 24/7 Accessibility: An online store is open around the clock, allowing your customers to shop at any time, day or night.
- Global Reach: Unlike a physical store, an online store can reach customers all over the world, significantly increasing your sales potential.
- Cost Reduction: Opening and maintaining an online store is generally less expensive than a physical store. You save on rental, personnel, and inventory costs.
- Personalization and Targeting: Analytics tools allow you to better understand customer behaviours and personalize their shopping experiences, thereby increasing conversion rates.
- Simplified Inventory Management: Platforms like WooCommerce offer advanced features to manage your inventory efficiently, including low stock alerts and detailed reports.
Online Store
WooCommerce is our preferred choice for developing online stores for several reasons. WooCommerce is highly customizable with a wide range of plugins and extensions that allow you to add specific functionalities according to your store’s needs. Designed to be user-friendly, WooCommerce enables store owners to manage their products, orders, and customers without requiring advanced technical skills. WooCommerce sites are designed to deliver fast and smooth performance, ensuring a pleasant user experience and reducing cart abandonment rates. WooCommerce can be integrated with various accounting systems, CRMs, and marketing tools, facilitating the management and synchronization of your data.
Payment Form
For simpler or specific projects, we also use Gravity Forms, a flexible solution that allows the creation of custom order forms. Although less robust than WooCommerce for large stores, Gravity Forms is a great solution for simpler project. It allows for the creation of custom order forms in an intuitive and quick manner, ideal for small projects or businesses wanting to quickly launch an online ordering feature. Generally less expensive to install and maintain than WooCommerce, making it an economical solution for simple projects. Offers great flexibility to customize forms with conditional fields and simple options, perfect for specific needs without the complexity of a full-fledged store.
Security
We understand the importance of security for online transactions. This is why we recommend using Stripe as a payment gateway, known for its high security standards and easy integration with WooCommerce. Additionally, we implement robust security measures to protect your customers’ data.
Imports and Automations
Managing an online store also involves the ability to import products and synchronize orders with your existing systems. Bulk product import simplifies catalog updates. Synchronizing products and orders with your accounting system reduces errors and improves efficiency.
At Elefen, we are dedicated to providing online store solutions that meet each client’s unique needs. Using powerful tools like WooCommerce and Gravity Forms, we create high-performing, secure, and easy-to-manage online stores. Selling your products online has never been simpler and more advantageous.
