Sample Designs

A typical ecommerce solution includes the following components:

An online catalog that lists the products/services you are selling and their prices.

A shopping cart that collects the items a customer wants to buy.

An order form that gathers their payment information, applies shipping/tax, and summarizes the pending order.

Transaction Processing that subtracts payment from the customers account and applies it to your own.

Real-time transaction processing is provided via a vendor. Offline-transaction processing can be done by a merchant using a credit card machine. Of course, order fulfillment is also an important element of ecommerce.

An HTML form posts all of the information needed to process a transaction to your vendor's transaction server. Once the transaction server gets all of the transaction information, the transaction is processed. After the transaction is processed, it communicates the result back to your website, which communicates with the customer, and makes appropriate changes to your database (if inventory control is used).

Flash presentations are rapidly becoming more and more popular on the Internet. We do not, however, recommend a new website business be designed entirely in flash for the following reason:

• First and foremost flash cannot be read by search engine spiders. They cannot, therefore index a site that is built entirely in flash. We recommend instead that if flash animation is used in the development of your website it be embedded within the standard HTML presentation to enhance the site.

   

• Just as it is not recommended that flash be used for your entire site, a flash introduction causes the same difficulty as the only lead into your actual site is also in flash. This type of site works well If you are not concerned with being listed high in the major search engines or if you have a very well established name such as with cocacola.com or toyota.com etc.

This site uses a flash header as well as a flash navigation bar. It provides just enough animation to gain attention but not so much as to distract from the body. Most individuals that will visit your site will be interested more in what you have to say and how you say it than all the clever gadgets that can be added.
