All the website standard features
As with the ready to go website package you get website statistics, Google logging, the facility to edit you own content, branded email address, contact form and a 1 hour content management tutorial. On top of that you get an online catalogue with the following features and options. To have a closer look please visit the website design section.
Add and edit your own online product details and prices
Keep the cost of running your online store down by adding and editing products yourself. Add and edit descriptions, prices and product numbers when you want to. All you need is access to the internet and a recent browser. If you however would rather have us handle those tasks for you just let us know and we'll work it out.
Add product photos to your webstore yourself
Add photos to your online shop yourself. With some knowledge of photo handling using your computer you can add your own product photos to the website. We’ll even give you some pointers in the one hour tutorial if you’re not too sure. If on the other hand you’d like us to take the photos for you just ask us and see the product photos for your website section.
Facility for multiple product photos
A photo can tell a thousand words. Our ecommerce website designs let you have multiple photos for each product to help you promote all your products features and benefits. Or maybe the colours and styles they are available in. Web Agent can even take photos of your products for you and manage your products to let you focus on selling. See our website product photos for more information.
Small business e-newsletter
To keep customers engaged in the products you offer an electronic newsletter will help keep them informed and reinforce your brand. Web Agent offers a small business solution for noncritical mailouts that can be used as a plain text only email.
Accept payment using Pay Pal
The quickest way to start accepting payments online is to use the PayPal interface. Using the online catalogue you will be able to link the shopping cart to your paypal account so that when a customer will fill in their order and are about to check out they will be directed to pay using PayPal.
Onsite credit card payment facility *
Some store owners consider onsite transactions to be more professional. This is because you keep the customer on your website for the entire transaction and the money is deposited directly in your bank account. For more information about onsite payment options see the online shop payment options section.
Blog for your online store *
Social networking is a part of every day for many people. By using a blog on your online shop you can always keep your customers up-to-date about new releases and industry news in a fashion that is not trying to sell them something, but mearly informing them about the industry you are in. There are other benefits that work in your favour when you create a blog in your online store that we can consult you about.
Search engine promotion tools for your online store *
For those that are interested in working on the competitive edge of their websites and fine tuning their websites for search engines we offer back end control over the meta properties on the website. This includes control over the content that is aimed at search engines.
"Imagine a 75 year old company that manufactures, imports and distributes nationally, but has never advertised apart from free telephone book listings. That was us. We never considered the internet was for much more than emails! Then along came Web Agent using words and phrases that sounded to us like he was from another planet. We had a few meetings and decided to take the plunge. Web Agent worked with us guiding and recommending all the way along and we are now nearly completed with a customised website design. I would happily recommend Web Agent."
