  1. Sell Grocery Online I am a businessman, I own a grocery store. My sales were just average, and during the ongoing lockdown, for the COVID19 pandemic, my shop was closed and the goods were getting spoiled, which was causing me huge loss. As grocery items are daily needed products, there was a huge demand for it so I started taking orders via WhatsApp to provide people with the essentials but I found it very troubling. I wanted to increase my sales and also wanted to sell with some new products but due to the lockdown, I was unable to do so as I was not allowed to open my store for the customers. One day my son asked me to look at Amazon for the offers, rates, and other details as he wanted to buy a mobile phone. At that time I thought about how Amazon is working without opening a store and like this, I also can sell my product by offering them to my customers using an online store. What is eCommerce? eCommerce is a way that helps in selling goods online by using the internet. With the help of an online eCommerce store, I can also sell online 24*7*365 in just a few clicks without any time limitations. I saw it as a way to increase my sales, this also allows me to start offering new products to my customers. It is all because of eCommerce that I and my customers are no longer time-bound and there are no area limitations as my customers can order from anywhere and I can deliver the products to them anywhere. By selling grocery products online, I was even able to maintain social distance. It also allows easy money transfer by credit cards, debit cards, online banking. Various eCommerce Platforms

  2. While I was searching for how to build my virtual store, I also came to know about various eCommerce platforms. Ecommerce platforms are basically web-based softwares that helped me to have my own store on the web. Some of the best available platforms are WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, Ravendel. We can select an eCommerce platform according to our requirements and affordability. Some of the platforms are open-source, some offer a headless approach, and some are hosted solutions. Some platforms are completely free while some are paid. The paid platforms do provide a free trial so that they can be chosen wisely to meet one’s needs. What is a Theme? To make the store look stylish, manageable, and modern all the eCommerce platforms provide themes, and to further enhance the functionality there are plugins available. A theme is a design for your eCommerce store that may be pre-built or you can hire a developer to code a new one for you. The themes can be default or advanced, free, or paid. According to the sales volume, products that you are offering, and as per your budget, you can opt for the theme for your online store. BigCommerce is a hosted platform and it helps in building an online store. A hosted platform means that they only provide an interface to us so that we can manage tasks like adding products, checking orders kind of things. There is always a limitation with the hosted platforms like Shopify or BigCommerce when you want anything completely custom but at the same time, this kind of solution is a great option for the person who is not tech-savvy and wants a simple interface. It is very important that your online store looks attractive and provides an easy to use interface to the customers otherwise the site visitors will leave the website if they find the site not pleasing and Here comes the need for the theme when you want your online grocery store to look stylish and systematic.
