Your Website 

When we email your Ecommerce Business plan, we will include a short form for you to complete. From the information that you provide we will create a professional Shopify ecommerce website to your individual requirements. This will include:

• A header section with menu bar
• Homepage content
• A footer section with industry standard sections including: About Us, Terms of Business, Privacy, Returns Policy and contact information.
• The website is optimised for Google search engine ranking.
• All you need to do is add products (from the suppliers we recommend) to get started.

You will need to purchase a domain name (approx £15) and select a Shopify plan (from £25 per month).

Marketing your website

Once you have a website, the most important step is to then get visitors and conversions (sales). We recommend an effective independent digital marketing agency that will promote the website to achieve conversions using SEO (search engine optimisation), PPC (Pay-Per-Click), social media campaigns, blogs, backlinks, reviews, etc.  

FACT: it is absolutely possible to make £millions from an ecommerce website with many successful examples of online retailers achieving significant revenue figures - but it requires a well-planned strategy, a strong market niche, effective marketing, and consistent effort to stand out in a competitive landscape.
