Ecommerce

To sell goods, you must display them. Ecommerce approaches this in much the same way as a catalogue. Goods are presented as images with text descriptions, prices and product options. The main difference is in the way that goods are stored and placed. Any Ecommerce definition would have to include an understanding of databases. Instead of "printing" each product web page uniquely, only one page is made, and filled in by a database. This means that instead of a thousand pages for a thousand products, one page only is used - called a template. The template has empty places in it (like a picture space, a price space, a description space etc.) that are filled in from the database.

To sell things online you must also gain trust with your customer. It is a very true fact that people buy from, people and there needs to be a high degree of trust to sell things online.

Shopping Basket software

The Reason8 shopping cart / shopping basket software also has the facility to lock individual pages so that only members can get access to the pages on your web site. You can issue usernames and passwords on the Reason8 shopping cart / shopping basket software. You customers can even use a self service password reminder tool. The Reason8 shopping cart / shopping basket software therefore prevents you from answering low level support queries.

Shopping Basket

If you want to take credit cards online then you will almost certainly need a shopping cart / shopping basket. The A shopping cart / shopping basket is made by mals ecommerce and it is an invaluable linkage to the payment system. At reason8 the payment system that we recommend is paypal. This allows you to take credit cards immediately. Of course you will need a paypal account first but once you have the shopping cart / shopping basket it will link directly into the Paypal and you can take credit cards immediately.
