Setting up an eCommerce website / online shop

[LDN]

Yes Ecwid is very fast - you click and the next item / page shows straight away. It is google friendly and is now moreso, as they've sorted out their URL structure.

Take a good look around their website and look at examples. As Digga says, the options are endless as you can embed just one category or even one product wherever you want; the cart and checkout all take care of themselves.

For one shop I have, I had to use one of the bigger platforms as the shop had to be plugged into a warehouse fulfilment centre system - and they could only connect to BigCommerce and Shopify... so I was stuck with using BC. BC is good though.

The other thing which is pretty good, as an alternative to Shopify, is Ecwid. Similar sort of thing.

Ecwid is expanding very quickly and is becoming a very very nice platform indeed.

I completely forget why, but we opted for it rather than Shopify (which looks very good) a few years back and it's done all we expected from it, plus more. My only, very minor grip is the hours their telesupport people keep - US biased.

It looks like a very nice option, sadly those support hours would be a deal breaker for us, being 12 hours removed from USA .....

Cheers though Shopify looks like the one, better dust off my design ability

Tesla is on Shopify you will be fine - some great new themes just come through as well. Not sure how you value your time but there are loads of set up services for under £1k and for small coding jobs check Hey Carson out.
