It takes a lot of time and effort to develop an e-commerce website and it takes equal time and effort to draw targeted traffic to the site. So, would you want a site that drives off the traffic that it attracts? Clearly, this would be a self defeating prophecy yet many people do exactly that. As such, it is critical to design a site that does not make for a negative visiting experience so as to not undermine your e-commerce’s site’s potential to sell.

While you may know which web browser you like the best you do not know which web browser potential customers enjoy. so, it becomes important to develop a website that is compatible with all browsers. After all, if your e-commerce site is not compatible with, say Firefox, you will literally be driving off untold numbers of customers who surf the net with Firefox.

One of the most common, and easily corrected, mistakes on an e-commerce website is broken links. Honestly, the presence of links that do not work reflect very badly on the owner of the site because it displays sloppiness and a lack of maintenance. Because of this it is critical to double check all links and make sure they work before driving potential customers to your site.

If there was an aspect thiat is most overlooked it would be load time. Most people do not think much about the amount of time it takes to load a website if they are used to DSL or some other form of High Speed Internet connection, but for those people who are using a dial up modem a page that takes forever to load is annoying. Most people with dial ups (and they still compose a massive number of internet users) simply won’t wait for a page that takes forever to load.

Again, it takes very little to make a website visitors like. So give them what they like!

If you have stepped into the world of Ecommerce, you are making a smart career move. The ability to pull in significant revenue through a website is quite possible provided you have a heavy stream of traffic to your site. However, it is important to realize that traffic alone will not sell you products. In fact, what is the value of a website that draws in huge numbers of visitors when those visitors immediately leave the site? Obviously, there is little value in such a site and that is why it is critical to develop a website that does not undermine your ability to sell your product.

For example, is it easy for the potential buyer to reach the product that is for sale? Often, many websites are loaded with pages and sub-pages that do not provide a product to click on for purchase. The internet is boundless, while people’s time is limited. When you make it time consuming for people to purchase the item they may exit the site and take their business to a more user friendly site.

Another problem is developing links that do not direct the “clicker” directly to the product. This may seem like an academic point, but there are a number of sellers who make the colossal mistake of linking to a page that does not offer an option to purchase the product. If you place an ad for a door knob and the link leads the potential buyer to the “about us” section of your website then you may have undermined the sale.

Also, it is critical to have a reliable and user friendly shopping cart software program installed. Shopping carts that are difficult to navigate deter buyers from actually buying. Now, who would want a situation like that?
