We love BigCommerce Web Design

BigCommerce Web Design Edmonton Saint JohnFor businesses whose primary website function is to sell products or services online, a professional shopping cart website is a must. With an e-commerce solution that's right for your business, you can grow and develop your business in new and exciting ways! 

We work mainly with hosted e-commerce provider BigCommerce. Sometimes referred to as 'Software as a Service' (SaaS), hosted e-commerce works extremely well for all kinds of businesses, and makes it possible to create a compelling online store with all the bells and whistles you need in order to be competitive. Your online storefront will be visually appealing and socially connected, and most importantly, will offer an intuitive and secure path to purchase.

With BigCommerce, you get a complete online shopping cart system and integrated product catalogue tool that is pre-configured for easy implementation, all within a website that can be tailored to your brand identity.

Available features include:

  • shopping cart product database
  • online payment processing
  • shipping options including live rates calculation
  • coupon and discounting tools
  • complex product options
  • youtube video embedded in product description
  • gift wrapping and wishlist options
  • affiliate program functionality
  • customer groups for product pricing (for example wholesale and retail)
  • subscription/recurring billing (for - say - a Wine of the Month Club website) - Volusion SaaS does this, not BigCommerce
  • integration with dropshippers
  • promotional and marketing tools
  • traffic/customer reports
  • content management tools
  • social networking and facebook sales tools
  • correct Canadian tax display (not all carts can do this!)
  • built-in or integrated newsletter
  • live chat function
  • push products to shopping feeds and eBay
  • And much more!

Once we know what you need your site to do, we will be able to determine a "best-fit" solution for your business.

*We have also done (and still do) extensive work with Zen Cart,. It is an excellent little self-hosted shopping cart system, and a more cost-effective option for very small businesses. We have moved more and more to hosted shopping cart systems like BigCommerce because of all built-in features they come with, and because they are kept up-to-date in terms of security and features. We would be happy to discuss the differences with you - just give us a call!
