With tech startups, the hassle about selecting a tech, in particular, seems to outshine the chicken-and-egg problem. This move determines implementation success, or the other way round.

While Choosing the Right Ecommerce Website Template

Opening up an eCommerce store can be a tricky task unless you don’t come up with the right ecommerce theme. Going by the trend, Leto WordPress theme is leading the pack with its outstanding features and functions.

Further below I would like to mention a few basic yet crucial factors that must be taken into consideration while choosing a WordPress theme for your ecommerce store.

  1. Visual appeal – The famous adage – “The first impression is the last impression” is highly applicable to the ecommerce industry. A poorly designed website will offer you nothing more than a high bounce rate and less retention rate. On and all, themes play a major role to cast a spell on the visitors. In addition to this, one must always consider that theme should not be only about graphics, but it must also look professional. Create a website in such a way that it acts as the right representation of your business.
  2. Customizable – If we look in regards to the business perspective, ecommerce is such a business that is subjective to quick expansion in a short span. This means whatever theme you end up with, make sure it comprises of advanced and additional features to support you. Digital technology being subjective to advancement and change, it is very important to choose a theme should not be a constraining factor in customization and versatility.
  3. Is it responsive? – Until you don’t make major advances with a responsive design, everything seems like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. This probably means your site will adapt sizes depending on whether the customer is viewing it from a computer, tablet or phone. Still, it is always advisable to test out the site on several devices in advance to see whether it appears the way you want or not.
  4. A style that fits your brand identity – Is it trendy or classic? Designing a WordPress theme for ecommerce store highly depends on the brand identity. Starting from your company colors to fonts you like, image selection, come up with something that easily resonates with your brand. PrestaShop themes are designed to showcase a variety of products.
  5. Does it load quickly? – In today’s fast-paced world, speed matters the most. Your site must load quickly so that the impatient customers don’t switch. It may quite interest you to know that if Amazon would take one-second delay to load, then chances are there that the company would lose 1.6 billion dollars in sales a year. A simple looking site which loads quickly is way better than a fancy one that takes more seconds to load.
