Content management system (CMS)
The WooCommerce and WordPress platform is a content management system or CMS. A CMS essentially separates the content of your website such as product information from the overall design of the website.
What this means is that you can easily manage your online shop through an intuitive, easy to use, administrator interface. You can add or modify product information, add promotions and run sales campaigns, add new pages or blog posts, etc. without needing to worry about how your new content will look. All content will automatically follow the overall website design and layout that we setup for you.
This also means that when it comes time to refresh your website look and feel, we can re-design it and all of the content on the website will automatically adapt to the new design. A CMS gives you ease of management, flexibility, scalability and future proofing

Site structure
When you consider opening an online shop, it is important to consider how you want to organise and categorise your products and services such that they can easily be found by search engines and users. We work with you to optimise your product database structure and help you get product data into your new website. If you already have product data in a suitable format, perhaps from your accounting software, we can create a software routine to automatically import that data into your new online store.
web design for e-commerce that works on all devices
Mobile first design
Statistics for 2019, show that 82% of customers use their mobile phone whilst making a decision to buy from an online store. 52% of users are put off by an online shop having a bad mobile experience with 40% of users ultimately buying from a competitor having a store with a better mobile device experience.
aento’s e-commerce website designs focus on mobile device usage and provides exceptional user experience across all devices, mobile and desktop. We also design sites to meet accessibility critieria for users with visual and other impairments.
Customised, on brand, e-commerce stores
Bespoke design
We don’t use or re-use generic design templates when we build online stores for our clients. Your business is unique and your e-commerce website design needs to be just as unique and fully represent and enhance your brand. It is also key that users find your online shop attractive and intuitive to use with products and services being easy to find with a simple shopping cart and purchase experience.

Customer accounts
You want to provide exceptional service to your customers and encourage them to keep engaged with your business. A great way to do this is to allow customers to setup user accounts with your online store. For users, a user account is a great feature to be able to keep track of orders and purchases. For the online store owner, a user account is a great source of marketing data and allows you to customise the user experience.
If you are going to be keeping customer details, however, you will need to be aware of data security and privacy regulations in your target markets such as GDPR in Europe. aento can help you ensure that customer data is held securely and that your online store complies with local regulations for data security and privacy.

Secure payment provider integration
It is important that users have confidence in the security and reliability of payment processing on your online store. aento’s e-commerce website designs can integrate with proven, trusted payment services such as PayPal, SagePay, WorldPay and Stripe. We protect your online store using SSL encryption that allows the secure padlock symbol to be displayed in web browsers.
If you’re shipping internationally, you may be subject to different tax rules in each of the countries you deliver to. Some payment providers can handle this for you and it may be worthwhile considering a suitable payment provider in this case. Additionally, extensions are available for WooCommerce to support handling and recording international tax.

Shipping
Establishing how to ship products from your online store can present a number of challenges. You want the process to purchase your product to be as streamlined as possible so it is essential that users can establish the best shipment method and cost available to them as part of the checkout process. Offer free shipping or absorb partial shipping costs based on the wrong information and your store could end up losing money. Equally charging too much for shipping can result in lost sales.
Our e-commerce website designs enable you to accurately record product packaging information such as weight and dimensions. We can integrate your online shop with your carriers of choice and ensure that users are always presented with accurate shipping cost based on products being purchased and logic and rules that you define
Optimised e-commerce web applications

We provide you with guidance on how content and descriptions of products should be written in order to maximise the visibility of your product catalogue in search engine results.
