ECOMMERCE DEVELOPMENT FOR HEMP & CBD BRANDS

Before we dive into building your new online shop, we will take you through our in-depth discovery process. This stage is a vital part of the project and allows us to learn more about you, your business and your target audience.

Together, we will take a look at your competitors to find out what is working for them and discover how they are attracting the customers that you aren't. We will analyse their store, and learn about their methods of generating traffic to give you an idea of what you are up against in terms of search engines, and overall marketing strategy.

We will then gather important feedback from your existing customers, to find out what made them buy into your brand, to discover any key messages or signals that we can incorporate into your content and brand voice.

You need to know who your target audience is. This will help you determine the right type of content for them. Ideally, you want to target people who have a need for the services you provide. Your content should be written in a way that appeals to potential clients and is easy to understand.

Whether your store is brand new or you have an established presence, content development is an important part of your marketing strategy. By developing and distributing quality content, you can enhance brand awareness, increase traffic to your site, and convert visitors into buyers.

Our content development stage involves a variety of processes, including research, writing, editing, and formatting. It can also include organising and creative design. Using the data gathered during discovery, we with you create new content that will grab the attention of your audience, and convert.

Your content should be written in simple, concise language. It should also convey an image of your expertise and professionalism. You can do this by using keywords in your content that are relevant to your target market. You can use industry reports and white papers to give your audience an overview of your company and products.

We can also add videos, images, and searchable digital elements. These will help to create leads and increase your store's ranking on search engines. We can also use behaviour analytics to determine the best ways to optimize your content. This will help you determine the best way to engage your audience and turn them into buyers.

Your ecommerce design will be centred around your branding, customer demographic, functionality requirements and best usability practices. Your design will be unique to your company and set up for maximum conversions.

We build WooCommerce stores to the highest standard and will ensure that yours qualifies the right client and encourages phone and email enquiries.

Your new online shop will be designed to work flawlessly on all popular internet browsers, and most importantly on mobile devices which in many cases can contribute to 50% of your traffic.

Optimising your store involves taking a number of factors into consideration. These factors include the content of your web page and its overall structure.

Having these elements right will ensure that your site is optimised for search engines. This will help you achieve higher rankings in the search engine results pages, resulting in more traffic to your website.

Google considers the relevance of your content to be one of the most important factors in search engine optimisation. Having quality content that matches the search intent of your users will create good impressions for search engines.

We will ensure that every part of your online shop is optimised accordingly. This will include creating SEO-friendly URLs, and meta descriptions, optimising images and creating an internal link structure. Your content will be optimised in line with your services and data gathered during the research stage. We always focus on keywords that have the highest search volumes.

Once this has been done, your store can be integrated with Google Analytics, Search Console and Site Kit. These tools will help you to learn more about the visitors to your website, and guide your digital marketing campaign.

Once your ecommerce website is complete we can set a date to push it live. Before this happens we will ensure that everything has been checked and tested and that the website functions correctly across all major browsers and devices.

Your store will be submitted to search engines, forcing them to crawl and index your pages and products.

Once your new online shop has been crawled and indexed, we can start to generate traffic using a range of popular techniques.

We would focus on search engine optimisation and content marketing to bring new visitors to your store.

Whether you're a web designer or entrepreneur, WooCommerce is one of the most popular platforms for creating and managing online shops. It's simple to set up, adaptable and able to scale. Over 3.4 million businesses are using WooCommerce, with many more joining every day. If you are looking to sell CBD online, we highly recommend this platform.

WooCommerce has a large community of users and developers, who help improve the platform with new features and tools. This means that you have an incredible range of tools to use to make your site the best it can be.

WooCommerce stores tend to rank well in search results. This is mainly because it uses search engine friendly code that allows search engines to easily index and crawl your store. With plug-ins such as Yoast, it also allows you to create SEO titles and descriptions.

WooCommerce uses the WordPress platform, which has an excellent ecosystem of plugins. These plugins are used to add extra functionality to your online store. You can choose between free and premium plugins. The premium plugins offer additional speed, functionality, and design options.

Another important feature of WooCommerce is that it allows you to edit your pages, posts and products whenever you want. You can manage your store from your mobile phone and integrate it with dropshipping providers and fulfilment centres around the world.

You can easily integrate WooCommerce with Google, Facebook, and Twitter. It's also easy to add Freshbooks, MailChimp, and Quickbooks.

Ecommerce development requires a lot of effort and investment. Whether you build your own or hire an agency like ourselves, expect to pay anything from £2495 to £15,000.

The cost of creating an online shop can vary greatly depending on the features you choose. A single product store can be done for little money, while a feature-rich, large eCommerce store can reach anything up to £15,000. Using WooCommerce is a popular way to create a store. However, if you don't have the know-how, you may be limited.

You can save a lot of time by hiring an agency such as ourselves to design and build your online store. These services come with a number of advantages, including lower overhead costs and convenience.

Using a platform such as WooCommerce to handle your catalogue and online sales will save you time and money in the long run. However, you will need to pay for the customisation, content strategy and optimisation, including any monthly web hosting fees and maintenance.

If you are on a limited budget, you can take advantage of the many free or inexpensive Woo themes. You can also use plugins to enhance the functionality of your store.

The best way to determine the true cost of your new ecommerce store is to evaluate your needs and long-term goals.

Yes. Selling your hemp or CBD products on a subscription basis is super simple thanks to WooCommerce Subscriptions, a premium plug-in that is available for a relatively low cost. You can create and manage products that accept recurring payments, which will provide you with consistent recurring revenue.

Your customers can manage their own subscriptions as well. Subscribers can suspend or cancel a subscription, change the shipping address or payment method for future renewals, and upgrade or downgrade their subscription via the My Account > View Subscription page.

The WooCommerce > Edit Subscription administration screen provides store owners with full-featured subscription management. You can suspend or cancel a subscription, change the trial expiration date, add items, shipping, fees, or taxes, or change the recurring total for future payments.

A subscription-based approach will enable you to generate more recurring revenue — all you have to do is ship the orders. This business model is becoming increasingly popular in the hemp and CBD industry.

Dropshipping hemp and CBD products has never been easier, thanks to WooCommerce's numerous modules and plug-ins. Shipping costs, warehouse synchronisation, and order management in general have been simplified.
