It is a virtual store that displays<br \/>\nvaried products of various ranges in the form of images. It allows you to compare the products<br \/>\nand choose the desired of your choice, lets you go through safe payment options and then<br \/>\ndelivers the product intact at your doorstep in a couple of days.<\/p>\n<p>The features that an e-commerce website requires basically is the ability to let the customer<br \/>\naccess all your web pages easily, have attractive images and convincing details of all the<br \/>\nproducts, list of all the honest reviews and a column to compare relative products and finally<br \/>\nreaching out to the executive in few clicks.<\/p>\n<p>With the aim to attract huge number of visitors, the foremost requirement is to have the website<br \/>\neasily loaded. Research says that 1% increase in loading speed is directly proportional to 7%<br \/>\nincrease in the possible customers. To have minimal loading speed is the need of the hour.<br \/>\nIt is found that a visitor at the most waits for a minimum of 3 seconds for a website to load.<br \/>\nWhile generally two seconds is the loading time, visitor chooses to close the site if it is more<br \/>\nthan four seconds. This not only leads to lose a single visitor at that moment but he or she<br \/>\ngenerally do not tend to revisit the same website due to the bad experience they already had. It<br \/>\nalso gives a negative feedback to others due to the bad mouth. And so is an overall huge loss to<br \/>\nyour business wherein they opt to prefer your competitor over you.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the various available techniques which help you to improve the accessing speed of<br \/>\nthe website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Having the images with minimal size<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the most important aspects. Especially the e-commerce sites are mostly filled with<br \/>\nimages. Images with huge size means more retrieving time. Highly resoluted images carry more<br \/>\nspace and require greater bandwidth thus delaying the whole loading process. The ideal size of<br \/>\nan image can be below 100kb to improve the efficiency.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Designing based on HTML5 and CSS3<\/strong><br \/>\nThanks to the improving client side technologies. The CSS3 has inbuilt multiple improved<br \/>\nfunctionalities for providing lots of animated and graphical effects in your web page. Having the<br \/>\ndesign of your webpage by making use of maximum CSS instead of graphical snippets shall<br \/>\ncontribute immensely to have an amazing loading speed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Minimal Javascript Code<\/strong><br \/>\nA website with lesser number of scripts is comparatively faster. And so is the need to logically<br \/>\nanalyse so as to decrease the probability of accessing script for every minute query. This is<br \/>\nanother great method of coding to have faster downloading of web pages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adding AJAX in the coding<\/strong><br \/>\nAJAX helps you to retrieve the content without refreshing the whole web page. This shall seem<br \/>\nto be a small step but highly fruitful to reduce the access time of any data. It helps in loading<br \/>\nonly the required content with updated information keeping the remaining format of the whole<br \/>\npage intact.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cache Memory Optimization<\/strong><br \/>\nInstead of accessing the server for repeated access to information, a local memory shall serve<br \/>\nthe purpose. Optimizing caches helps the website to be available locally in the browser<br \/>\ntemporarily. This minimises the time required to access different pages of the website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>eCommerce website basically deals with selling products online.
