How to go about eCommerce website design?• Websites are developed with the aim of information
sharing. • Non reciprocal: is one way information sharing where the
web visitor visits the websites to gather the information relevant for the purpose.
• Reciprocal: information sharing is two way information sharing where the web visitor can actually engage themselves in information sharing and advance to next step of information sharing by making some purchases or subscribing to some news letters etc.

eCommerce websites
• eComm websites are sort of reciprocal information
sharing with the sole purpose of simplifying the online
purchase experience of a web visitor or to guide the
visitor towards making an online purchase.
• The website design involves lots of intricacies but a
designer working on the eCommerce web design needs
to understand the online selling principles. 7
• For a viewer the eCommerce web design and normal website
design may seem same because both of them follow the same
principles of website design that is attractiveness, systematic
organisation of elements, correct color palette to boost website
spirit.
• The differences begin to troop in once you have a close look
into the some of the eCommerce web designs and other
website designs. 8
Selling Principles• Simplifying online shopping experience: The users prefers
online shopping in order to avoid the hassles of offline
shopping. So it becomes the priority of web designer to
ensure that website design delivers the smooth online
shopping experience to the user.
• Furnishing the authenticated information: The user should
be given the reason why they should believe your site and
how easily they can reach out to you. 9
Selling Principles• Customers are more attracted towards the virtual arrangement of the
things during shopping. It becomes very difficult for the web designer to
convey that virtual shopping arrangement through website design.
• It is pretty easier for the web designer to showcase the objects without the
bother of space constraints. It becomes relatively difficult for web designer
to lure the customer to make purchase through the website design.
10
• Customers favour those eCommerce website designs which will lead them to right
page with minimum number of clicks.
• Web designers often use some unconventional techniques to promote eCommerce
web designs. Sometimes a web designer may utilise the potential of single paged
website by integrating the order form at the end.
• Sales Letters: Many people perceive sales letter as good example of eCommerce
web design. In reality sales letter is not the good example of eCommerce website
design because they are niche specific and may sell a single product. Still sales
letters are capable of large conversions because they present the product
information in a smart way. 11
• The supermarkets and shopping malls are similar to the
online shops, as both showcase products. As in shopping
malls the arrangement of things seems to be much simpler to
the ones in online shop. It becomes difficult for the user to
browse through the complex website to search for the things.
• The eCommerce websites make it simpler for the web visitor
to browse through the product section easily with the help of
personalisation technology. This personalisation technology
also casts spell on the eCommerce website design
12
• Layouts play important role in success of an
eCommerce web design.
• Most of the eCommerce website designs are
distinguished by their layouts. These eCommerce
websites are always searching for a simplified
design which will lure the customer to purchase
the things.
13
Time Spent on website: Average time each customer spends on a
website is around 2 minutes before they leave the site. So these
two minutes time should be utilised to the maximum so as to lure
the customer.
Most Accessible Point:
• After Lots of research it has been found that most of the
customers first view the middle left area and center portion of the
webpage.
• By balancing these regions with smart content in a web design
these web designers know how to create an easy path for the
visitor to browse through the online shop and make the easy
purchase. 14

• Spending for US online advertising will decrease in 2009 by 4.6%—
the first drop since 2002.
• However, the slowly recovering economy, combined with basic
structural changes in how marketers and the public use media, will
lead to Internet ad spending growth in early 2010. 18
• While eMarketer previously estimated that 2009 online ad
spending would grow by 4.5%
• Reports from major portals through Q3 2009 showed either mild
growth (Google, for search) or sharp downturns (Yahoo! and AOL).
• Research from the IAB and PwC through Q3 2009 indicated an
overall online ad market in decline.
• Continued softness in key-areas keeps driving down classified
advertising—formerly the third-biggest online ad format.
• But search ad spending remains relatively steady and banner ad
spending is down by only a small amount.
19
• 100 largest advertisers are still putting a relatively small share of their
measured media budgets into display advertising. These major marketers
are, in general, still holding back from greater online ad investment, which
continues to stymie overall market growth.
• The primary structural change is the spending uptick for non-advertising
marketing, making all Internet ad spending estimates incomplete indicators
of the industry’s health.
• The new market place is a rapidly evolving ecosystem built on top of the
social Internet.
• As marketers look to engage their audience with relevant, trustworthy
messages, that increasingly means smaller shares of marketing budgets
going to traditional advertising. 20
