How To Choose The Best E-Commerce Website Developer: A Handy Checklist

Here are 5 key factors to assess the capabilities and professionalism of any e-commerce website developer. Do they have the expertise and ability to build the high-performing online store you need?

1. E-Commerce Experience
Look for a history of successfully built online stores. Has the developer worked with businesses similar to yours? Prior experience with online transactions, product management, and customer engagement features is essential.

2. User Experience (UX) and Design
Examine how their past e-commerce projects handle navigation and usability. Are product pages well-structured? Is the checkout process smooth? A strong portfolio should showcase intuitive, visually appealing designs that enhance the shopping experience.

3. Mobile Optimisation
Every e-commerce store must function seamlessly on mobile devices. Review whether the e-commerce developer’s past projects adapt well to different screen sizes, load quickly, and provide an effortless shopping experience on smartphones and tablets.

4. Performance and Scalability
Speed and stability are critical for an e-commerce store. Test portfolio examples for fast loading times and smooth performance. Check whether the online store is built to handle growing product catalogues and increasing traffic.

5. SEO and Marketing Integration
A well-built e-commerce site should support discoverability and sales growth. Look for SEO-friendly URLs, optimised product pages, and integrated marketing tools such as email capture, social media links, and blog sections.
