Ecommerce retail sales generated more than $298 billion in 2014 and this figure continues to go up, Shopify-Website-Design.com announces
Dublin, OH – April 7, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —
Expanded Ramblings reports 275,000 merchants were making use of Shopify as of October, 2016. The ecommerce provider generated $99.57 billion dollars for the third quarter of 2016, and this company only continues to grow. Any merchant looking to start an ecommerce site or improve on one they already have should consider making use of this platform. ForeFront Web, a Shopify Website Design provider, can be of assistance with this.
“Ecommerce continues to grow, and ecommerce retail sales increased 14.3 percent in 2014, according to Census.gov, amounting to $298.6 billion dollars. Companies not making use of an ecommerce site are missing out on sales, and Shopify makes it easy for any business to join in this industry and increase their revenue,” Stephan Reed, spokesperson for ForeFront Web, explains.
As of February, 2016, 25 percent of merchants had enabled social selling on Shopify. Furthermore, 62 percent of the Shopify traffic comes from mobile devices, and more and more people are making use of these devices when they go to make a purchase. In fact, 51 percent of sales completed using this platform take place on a mobile device, showing a large number of consumers are actually following through on their purchase.
“An ecommerce site must be easy to use and set up to make the purchase as effortless as possible. Shopify understands this and created their platform with these goals in mind. Thanks to fierce competition in the majority of industries, a retailer cannot afford to be lacking in any area. For example, a page that takes too long to load will lead to the consumer looking for the item elsewhere. Shopify is designed to eliminate problems such as this, allowing the retailer to focus on sales and not their site,” Reed continues.
A site is only effective when it can be found by consumers, and Shopify understands this also. This involves a great deal more than on-page optimization. Retailers must also emphasize off-page optimization, social signals and more, and this is where SEO for Shopify Websites becomes of great help.
“We do more than simply design a website for our clients. We also help with search engine optimization, domain purchasing, digital marketing, training and more. We want our customers to get the most from their Shopify site and show them exactly how to do so. For those tasks the customer does not want to take on, we can be of help. All you need to do is ask,” Reed states.
