Unveiling the Web Shop Journey: Your Path to E-commerce Triumph
Here’s how we do things…
1.Register a Domain
Let us take care of your domain registration. Simply tell us your desired domain, and you can use our domain checker to instantly see if it’s free or to discover other possibilities.
Domain Checker
What is a domain? A domain name is simply the street address for your website. Just like you type a street address into your GPS to find a house, you type a domain name (like “thewebshop.co.za” or “yourcompany.co.za”) into your web browser to find a website.
2. Create Email Addresses for your business
Once you have your domain, we can set up professional, branded email addresses for your business. For example, instead of using a generic email like “yourbusiness@gmail.com,” you could have “info@yourbusiness.co.za” or “yourname@yourbusiness.com.” This helps your business look more established and trustworthy.
3. Logo Design and Branding Colours
If you don’t already have a logo, we can design one for you! This is a great starting point because the logo design process helps us discover your unique branding colours. These colours will then be used across your website to create a consistent and cohesive look and feel, ensuring everything aligns perfectly with your brand identity.
4. Website Design
We’ll design a professional website for you with a theme that perfectly matches your vision. The end result will be a user-friendly website that’s easy for your visitors to navigate and enjoy.
5. E-Commerce/Online Store
If you already have a basic website and want to start selling online, we can transform it into a fully functional e-commerce store. This includes setting up a dedicated shop page, shopping cart, secure checkout process, and integrating a payment gateway. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a completely new online presence, we can design a brand-new e-commerce website from scratch.
6. Sitemap Submission
Once your website is complete, then we’ll submit your sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. Essentially, this crucial step helps search engines like Google and Bing find and index your site, thereby making it visible to potential customers.
7.Google Business Profile Setup
We can set up a Google Business Profile for your company. This profile makes it easy for customers to find you by displaying key information directly on Google Search and Maps, including your location, contact details, images, and customer reviews. It also includes a direct link to your website, making it even simpler for potential clients to connect with your business.
8. SEO (Search Engine Optimisation)
