Building an eCommerce Website
Why You Should Sell Products On a Website
Before anyone can purchase a product from you, they need a way to discover your brand and the products you’re selling. For brands that only sell products through a storefront, that limits the number of people that can learn about you, to begin with, much less come to your store to make a purchase.
That was already true before the Coronavirus pandemic started, but is much more the case now that customers sheltering in place have shifted almost all their shopping to online. If you don’t start an eCommerce website, there’s a huge market (CREATE AN ECOMMERCE WEBSITE) you miss out on.
1. People spend money online.
People in the United States spent $602 billion online in 2019. And that was before the Coronavirus changed everyone’s shopping habits. In the first month after the pandemic started, eCommerce sales grew by 49%. Any business owner that stays offline is missing out on their piece of those profits.
While some shoppers still prefer the experience of buying clothes in a store and will eagerly get back to doing so when it’s safe to, many prefer to skip the trip and do their shopping from a computer screen or mobile device.
If your competitors make their items available online and you don’t, you’ll lose that business.
2. An eCommerce website costs less than a storefront.
Running a storefront requires paying:
- Rent for space
- The paychecks of staff that man the store during business hours
- Proper licensing and permits
- Utility bills
- Furniture and decorations
- Building maintenance
All of that adds up to a lot of expenses – and most of them are ongoing.
Selling products on a website, on the other hand, cut out most of those costs. You will still need to pay for things like web hosting and marketing. And you may still need to hire some staff, depending on the size of the eCommerce store you run, but the costs are overall more manageable and easy to plan for.
3. Online shopping provides convenience.
When you’re tired, busy, sick, or just feeling (CREATE AN ECOMMERCE WEBSITE) a little lazy – you probably don’t want to spend time driving somewhere and browsing a store for the items you want to buy. People have a lot going on and sometimes there just isn’t room in their lives for a trip to the store.
4. An online presence gets your products found in search.
85% of people turn to Google for product discovery and shopping.
Without an eCommerce website, your products have no chance of showing up when potential customers start looking for what you sell online.
But when every product you sell is listed on a page on your eCommerce site, all of them will be indexed by Google. That’s the first step to your products showing up in search results.
If you want those product pages to show up on the first page of Google, that requires an investment in SEO best practices. But before you can even start thinking about that, you need an eCommerce website for your products.
5. The growth in mobile means people can buy from anywhere.
Mobile purchasing trends show that over a quarter of all eCommerce purchases now occur on mobile devices. Read more. Click here!
