Web Development & E-commerce

Project Overview

A comprehensive e-commerce platform for an established online retailer with 50,000+ daily visitors. The project included a complete redesign, mobile optimization, advanced payment options, and seamless integrations with inventory management and CRM systems.

The Challenge

The client was dealing with an outdated platform with poor user experience, limited scalability, and high maintenance costs. Page load times were slow, the checkout process was complex, and the site was not optimized for mobile.

  • Slow page load times (8-12 seconds)
  • High cart abandonment rate (68%)
  • Poor mobile experience and responsiveness
  • Limited payment and shipping options
  • Inefficient inventory management and order processing

Our Solution

We developed a modern, scalable e-commerce platform with focus on user experience, performance, and conversion optimization. The new platform is built with Next.js, features advanced filtering, personalized recommendations, and seamless integrations.
