Frequently Asked Questions About eCommerce Companies

What services do eCommerce agencies provide?

ECommerce companies offer development and design services that cover the entire digital commerce ecosystem. Primarily, they ideate, design, build, maintain, and optimize web sites for Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and custom platforms

Their core eCommerce portfolio is often complemented by digital marketing services such as search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC), content marketing, and conversion rate optimization (CRO), to name a few. Other key services include performance tracking, audience research, product listing optimizing, inventory management, sponsored ad management, and online marketplace management for Amazon, eBay, and Etsy. 

How much do these services cost?

ECommerce web development costs from $5,000 to $20,000+, with the platform choice and development complexity accounting for the biggest fraction of the cost. Namely, the platform determines how much of the work is handled out of the box and how much of custom development eCommerce providers will need to do. Businesses can choose between DIY website builders, platform-based builds with customizations, and bespoke builds. 

Of the three, platform-based builds with agency customizations are the preferred choice among businesses, wherein the cost is affected by the design of the storefront, the UX flows, the checkout and cart customization requirements, the product catalog structure, and the additional integrations pertaining to payment, shipping, and inventory. Here’s what to expect: 

  • Web development: $3,000 to $20,000 
  • Front-end development: $3,000 to $10,000+ 
  • Back-end development: $5,000 to $20,000 

For bespoke and enterprise builds, the price can exceed $50,000 for the combined development effort

How long does it take eCommerce companies to build a website?
