    Dan RadakBy Dan RadakJuly 11, 20163 Mins ReadUpdated:November 6, 2017

    Having a good product or a good service is not enough. You need to have a website to promote it and sell it. Moreover, having a website still doesn’t cut it – the website needs to be excellent in order to be useful. People will tell you all sorts of different things about what makes a good e-commerce website, but here are some features that everybody can agree on.

    keyfeatures-1

    It Must Be Interesting

    There is a sea of websites that offer products and services, you need to offer something more. Your website needs to stand out and the best way to achieve that is to have an interesting content. Answer the questions your customers want to ask and write on the topics that are of relevance in your niche. While looking for the answers, tips and solutions to their problems, the customers will land on your site and, in many cases, make the purchase. Figure out the content marketing strategies and implement those that are relevant for your website.

    It Needs to Be Easy to Use

    It is hard enough to boost the traffic on your website and attract the clients. You really have to make sure that they stay there and click that shopping cart. However, only few of your website visitors will do such a thing if your website is hard to use. Making it simple and intuitive is of essential value. If it is too hard to use, your visitors will just bounce and head to your competition.

    It Has to Be Secure

    Your clients will probably have user names and passwords stored on your website. But more importantly, they will type in their credit card numbers and other confidential data. In order to securely process these data, you need a good SSL Certificate. Without it, you will be putting yourself and your customers to risk. Of course, your certificate needs to comply to some of the authorities in order to be valid.

    It Needs Many Payment Options

    This is another way to make your website easy to use and to hold on to your customers. All your work will go to waste if there are not enough payment options on your site. Almost every e-commerce website will have Visa and MasterCard options. A lot of them will feature PayPal, as well. But, you need to cover your bases and offer alternative payment methods to the customers. This is especially important if your market is worldwide. A lot of countries do not have the options that the Western world has, and they can only pay you through certain channels.

    It All Depends on Good Marketing

    Besides seamless website, good hosting service, security and design, you need to have good marketing strategy for your e-commerce. Spreading the word online means engaging in all possible, white hat SEO methods. Also, utilize social media to boost your lead generation and make all the extra effort to become known to potential clients. Marketing is something that you can learn and master yourself, so get proper training if you need it.
    Having an excellent e-commerce website is not luxury nowadays. In today’s world, it is a necessity. Your competition will definitely do its best to have a proper website, and every click and client that they attract in that way is one client less for you. Therefore, do your best to stay afloat.
