E-Commerce Sites

We Sell Stuff You Can Buy!
E-commerce sites sell something—anything (anything legal, that is). E-commerce sites can be built around a Business-to-Business (B2B) or Business-to-Consumer (B2C) model, or they can be hybrids. They can be set up to restrict sales to pre-determined, qualified, clients or they can sell to the unrestricted public, including other businesses and individuals. E-commerce Web sites typically include any or all of these elements:
  • E-mail
  • Instant, or private, messaging
  • Teleconferencing
  • Newsgroups
  • Marketing newsletters
  • Customer Relationship Management
  • Shopping carts & order tracking
  • Payment systems
  • Shipping modules & shipment tracking
  • Ticketing or reservation system
I have built and maintain e-commerce sites for clients using the Joomla! content management system and VirtueMart, an open-source e-commerce component.

I can also build for you a site that uses the comprehensive Magento e-commerce platform.
