A value chain is a model that includes every step a company goes through- from
the initial idea through delivery to customer.
The E-commerce value chain is a process whereby businesses create and deliver
goods or services via the Internet.
6. Payment includes the methods by which customers can pay for goods or
services online. By understanding and managing these components
effectively, businesses can create a successful eCommerce operation.
TM [™]
• Trademark owners use the ™ symbol after a text, logo, design or picture,
which they claim as their own but have not been legally registered with a
regulatory authority.
• Usually, businesses will use the TM symbol to indicate their first usage or
that they have applied for its registration
(℠)
® R Symbol
Once a trademark is registered, then the applicant can start using the ®
symbol next to the trademark.
The R symbol signifies that the trademark is registered and enjoys
protection from infringement under the Trademark laws.
Use of the ® symbol after filing a trademark application or without
obtaining trademark registration is unlawful.
E-Commerce Website
1. Website Performance:
Make sure the platform works consistently and has a strong uptime record, so
your website is available when customers want to shop. Pages that load quickly
give customers the best experience.
2. Traffic Capacity:
Can the platform meet your current traffic needs? Does it have the scope to grow
with you as your business expands? Does it handle big days like Black Friday and
Cyber Monday?
3. Mobile Optimization:
More consumers are shopping on mobile device’s so it’s essential that your
platform can optimize your website for an excellent mobile encounter. Look for
ways to enhance customer experience through mobile technology, like
geolocation, which helps customers find the nearest store.
The platform must be able to protect your data and your customer’s data. Self-
hosted and open-source solutions require you to have a greater understanding of
security, as there’s a higher chance of attack.
Your website builder is the foundation of your online store. Options explicitly
designed for ecommerce give you more options and room to grow than generic
website builders with an ecommerce add-on. Here are a few to consider:
Big Commerce
It has 24/7 support with priority support available for large accounts. There are
plenty of built-in features. Multi-layered security keeps data safe, and local
payment methods bring in customers from around the world.
Shopify:
It is another solution that’s fully hosted and known for being quick and easy to
set up. They have an extensive range of plug-ins, but if you need to use a lot, the
price can quickly add up. Shopify can handle a high number of transactions per
minute, so it can easily cope with traffic spikes.
WooCommerce
If you already have a domain name, it can be transferred to your online store
builder. If you don’t have a domain name, make sure to purchase. It should be
easy to remember, and generic names should be avoided.
Pick Your Templates: Find a Theme that Matches Your Ecommerce Website
Vision
Templates and Themes are ready-built pages that you can customize to suit your
brand and help your site look good without design or coding skills. Think about
the following areas when selecting a template:
1. Customer navigation.
Does the template’s homepage reflect your brand? Does it have areas where you
can include images, slideshows, or videos? Is there space for you to share your
story with site visitors?
3. Customization options.
What parts of the page can be customized? Is there a font and color scheme that
matches your branding? How many images can you include? How are products
displayed, and can they be changed? Can social media be embedded?
Product pages are among the most critical pages on your site, as they show your
customers what you have to sell. Take the time to ensure you display your new
products in their best light by including optimized product descriptions, eye-
catching images, and easy to navigate categories.
1. Product descriptions.
2. Product images.
3. Product categories.
The right method is essential for closing a sale. If the method is too complicated
or not trusted, your customer could abandon their cart and not return. Make sure
it also meets your payment processing needs.
1. Redirects
A redirect takes the customer to a separate site to process the payment. The
most widely used example is PayPal. This is a simple solution for retailers and
passes on security concerns to the third party, but adds another step for
customers, which may drive some away.
3. On-site Payments
On-site payments happen on your site, which gives you complete control and
responsibility. It’s suitable for large corporations who process a lot of payments,
as they can afford to keep it working and secure.
