How does it work?

First we'll discuss your needs. As we build your online store, we'll work in your feedback.

Let's talk about you

Once you’ve signed up online or over the phone, you’ll be asked to choose a time for your first design consultation. Our team will call you so they can get to know your business and find out about your needs. The call will last about an hour.

Send us existing content

Already got some content you want us to use? Send us materials like logos, images or text. We'll also need some product information. In the initial call, we'll let you know what you should provide.

Happy so far?

Once your eCommerce website is ready, you’ll be sent a preview link. You can check if everything is the way you want. Then you'll have a call with your designer.

The finishing touches

During the approval call, your designer will talk you through your online shop. Small changes can be made straight away. If you’re happy, you’ll approve your new online shop and it can go live. If bigger changes are needed, you’ll have a follow-up call.

You take the reins

We’re always here to help with maintenance. But we want you to feel comfortable with your new online shop too. In your training call, our team will show you how to update and manage your shop.

Keeping it fresh

One week after your shop is live the team will be in touch to make sure everything’s going well. After that, you’ll have access to unlimited on-going support. If you have questions or want us to make edits, just call or email the team.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

In short, you’ll save time and get a great result.

Our eCommerce website design service is ideal for anyone who wants to start selling online but doesn’t have the time or skills needed. Whether you’re self-employed, a freelancer or own a small to medium-sized business, you can focus on what you do best while our eCommerce website designers build your store.

Professional search engine optimisation (SEO) is part of the service. This means your texts will be edited so they show up more easily on search engines like Google. Then, when customers are searching for your kind of business, your online shop will appear higher up in the search results.

On top of that, you’ll get unlimited maintenance. Call or email the team and they’ll make the changes you want. In a free training call, they’ll also teach you how to use your new online shop. So you’ll be able to manage your store and make edits yourself if you prefer.

You can order online directly or by giving us a call. If you’re interested in getting professional web design for eCommerce, but still have questions, call us on 0800 021 1693. Our team will provide you with a free, no-obligation consultation.

We’ll take care of building your site and setting up the first 10 product listings for you. We’ll just need a bit of input from you along the way to make sure everything is the way you want it.

Here's how eCommerce website design works at IONOS:

  1. When you order from our website, you'll be able to choose a time for your first consultation. An eCommerce website designer will then be in touch to find out about your business and needs.
  2. Then, the building can start. You’ll be asked to send us any existing content that you want us to integrate. We’ll also need information like product details and prices, as well as product photos.
  3. As soon as the first version of your online shop is ready, you’ll get a preview link to check.
  4. You’ll then have an approval call with your designer. Small changes can be made straight away. If you need us to make bigger changes, you’ll have a follow-up approval call.
  5. If you want to learn how to use your online shop, you can have a free training call with the team. They’ll show you how everything works.
  6. Once your eCommerce website is live, you’ll have access to unlimited edits and updates. Just call or email the team and they’ll make the changes for you.

As a general rule, your shop should be online within 10-15 business days. After your initial call with the team, we’ll get a first draft to you as soon as possible. You can help speed up the process by providing us with the information we need, and giving us your feedback quickly. Obviously, if major changes are needed, this may take more time.

As well as creating a professional online shop with 3 pages and 10 product listings, the eCommerce website development team will add payment and shipping methods, connect your store to your Facebook and Instagram profiles, and optimise your texts for SEO.

A special feature of the eCommerce website design service is the training call. You’ll learn how to use your online shop so you can make changes yourself if you want to. Of course, the team is always here to help with maintenance and edits.

Now your store is online, you can either make changes yourself or ask the team to make them for you.

Use the built-in analytics tools to track your shop’s performance and make adjustments to boost sales. By regularly updating your content, you keep your website relevant for search and encourage customers to come back.

If you need help with search engine optimisation, try a beginner-friendly tool like rankingCoach. You’ll get step-by-step instructions for improving your website’s SEO.
