Scope
We include a 0.5-1 hr virtual or in-person meeting to clearly determine your requirements. BSO Digital uses WooCommerce as our preferred eCommerce selling platform. BSO Digital offers a variety of convenient eCommerce website packages to suit every business and budget size.
These packages include a custom-designed home page, shop page, and product page. They can also include product loading, basic/advanced shipping calculation, and payment gateway setup. We can also provide custom eCommerce website quotes for more complex online shopping stores, based on your requirements.
Project Brief
After scoping your project, we will host a more in-depth 2 hr virtual or in-person to identify the purpose, target audience, competitors, design style, and any other required information.
You’ll be assigned a dedicated project manager that will be there from beginning to end. We will also establish a timeline, milestones, and delivery date based on the information provided.
Visual Design
The visual design is often shaped on existing brand elements. This includes logo, brand colours, fonts, and icons. The web designer will also take into account the client’s requirements and any information provided in the project brief/scope.
Our designers always follow the principles of design. They also stay abreast of the latest design trends and are trained in both UX and conversion-orientated design.
Development
Once the template concepts have been approved, BSO Digital will begin building the website. Our web developers specialise in WooCommerce web development and collectively boast years of coding experience.
BSO Digital will ensure that your new eCommerce website looks and feels like the approved concepts. Your new website will be SEO ready, built for speed, and conversion focused. BSO Digital utilizes our very own lightweight theme that is built upon to suit your needs.
Testing & Delivery
You will have full access to the development website well before the go-live date. This allows you time to internally review and test out the functionality.
BSO Digital will thoroughly test your new website on various browsers, screen sizes, and smart devices. BSO Digital can also host your new website or take it live on your chosen platform.

Ecommerce websites refer to any website where you can purchase or sell goods and complete payment. The term eCommerce is short for electronic commerce. These sites can be extremely lucrative if set up and managed properly.
A typical eCommerce website will perform three tasks. The server is responsible for the functionality of the website. The website processes transactions and finally the database keeps track of your inventory.
An eCommerce website that’s utilising WooCommerce is extremely easy to run, maintain, and update. WooCommerce has been purpose-built for WordPress and is super simple to operate for any experience level.
Ecommerce websites provide the ultimate convenience for consumers. They are available 24/7 and also require little to no effort to use. Store owners can easily reach new customers, cater to niche markets, and make sales without lifting a finger.
WooCommerce is the most recommended platform for WordPress. Beginners can learn how to use it very easily. It’s also the most popular WordPress eCommerce plugin because it boasts a variety of integrations.
This all depends on the platform, theme, and specific functionality. At the onset of a project, the client’s requirements will be carefully assessed to ensure pricing is accurate.
WooCommerce comes out of the box with everything you need in most cases. This includes account creation, shipping rules, email notifications, and product landing pages. Additional functionality can be added and usually doesn’t require additional purchase.
A successful eCommerce website is made up of many different things. Basic things like having product descriptions and attractive photos are a great start. Another thing you can try is to categorise your products in a way that benefits your user.
