Free In-Depth Chat

Firstly, we take the time to understand your business and requirements.

You can expect a lot of questions, because it’s essential we understand your situation so we can recommend the best solution for you.

It’s important to know if you need your new PrestaShop website to integrate with any other business software, systems or online platforms.

When you connect different online systems, you usually reduce costs, save time and make your business far more productive.

At Concise, we don’t just build good PrestaShop websites. We understand online business, and we have highly experienced Systems Integration experts in our team too.

This initial consultation can be done over the phone, on a video call or over coffee if you prefer. We are flexible and will try to fit in with you for suitable meeting times.

If possible, we will try to give you ballpark pricing estimates so you can quickly choose if you want to continue discussions with us.

Provide an Estimate & Recommendations

If you already have a detailed brief that explains exactly how you want the website to be built, then we can prepare relatively accurate estimates of the likely time and costs to design and build your new PrestaShop store.

If you don’t have all the details planned, then we provide our best estimates of how long each stage of the project will take to complete.

We send you a concise email with estimated time, pricing and other relevant information.

If being easily found in Google will be important to your business success, then we recommend incorporating SEO best practices into your new store. We can provide you with an estimate of the extra time this may take in addition to the core website build.

You Engage Concise Digital

At some point after the initial discussions, you need to formally engage us. You do this by completing our online Client Engagement form.

Of course, you will only engage us if you are confident we can deliver what you want on time, within your budget and to the level of quality you want.

It’s about trust, and you need to trust us. We work hard to earn and keep your trust.

As the old saying goes, ‘it take two to tango’, and we need to trust you too. We are choosy when we take on new clients. We want to work with like-minded people who have good businesses, realistic expectations and are likely to become happy, long-term clients. One of our directors, Gareth Lane calls it the ‘beer test’.

Planning Your New PrestaShop Store

A successful online store usually starts with good planning.

Some new clients come to us with very detailed plans and engage us to build their new website to their exact specifications.

Other clients want our help to plan their new website. We have many years experience building hundreds of different online stores.

It makes sense to pick our brains so you do what works and avoid making costly mistakes or falling into traps. We do this as part of our consultancy services to you.

You may just want a few phone calls to go through your questions or it be a series of meetings or planning workshops.

Technical planning areas include your store design; product and catalogue layout; website navigation and information architecture; your desired website functionality and the best additional PrestaShop modules you will need; third party integrations; or your hosting and other infrastructure requirements.

A big planning challenge for most new stores is how to prepare the content for the website and product catalogue. This also includes product data and metadata.

Good marketing plans are also vital. Some web store owners wait until their new site is launched before they think about marketing. It makes better sense to plan ahead so you include the right digital marketing options into your website as it is being built.

Sitemap Planning & SEO Recommendations (optional)

If an SEO friendly site is identified as a requirement, we will perform keyword research to help form the sitemap, features, layouts and URLs.

If you are moving from an old website, we will also map out the redirects from the old to the new URLs.

Design Mockups

We will create a wireframe and design mockup for your homepage first, for both mobile and desktop. Once you have reviewed those designs and provided feedback, we will move on to creating the designs for the internal pages and specific functionality pages.

Development & Walkthrough

Once all designs are signed off by you, we move onto developing your website. We will walk you through the backend and show you how everything works.

Your Content

The content for your website needs to be added to create your web pages, your product catalogue and all other sections to make up your online store.

For your PrestaShop website, your product catalogue content includes your product descriptions, product images, product dimensions, pricing, shipping costs and plenty more. We can help you think through what you need, and we have templates and checklists to help you.

You can supply and add all of the content, or we can create and add your content for you. We’re happy either way, and we can do as much work or as little work on this as you wish.

Your content needs to be written to engage and inform your customers, but it also needs to help you get found in search engines like Google. To do this, your content needs to be optimised using on-page SEO techniques such as keyword inclusion in the headings and body text, the inclusion of lists, internal and external linking and adding metadata.

If you are creating the content for your site, then you will need to provide the content in a timely and organised manner so that the website project can be delivered and launched on time for you.

User Experience & Functionality Testing

After development is complete and the content is added, we will go through and test each page on desktop and mobile and make adjustments. We will also check that all functionality is working correctly and troubleshoot any issues.

Hosting

Next is setting up your web hosting and ensuring that is working perfectly ready to go ‘live’.

SEO Migration Checklist (optional)

If we are migrating your website from another platform, we will implement an SEO migration checklist to reduce the chance of drops in your rankings and organic traffic. This involves tasks like implementing redirects, copying across your previous metadata, updating internal links with new URLs and much more.

Go Live & Testing

We will make your website live and immediately do testing to ensure everything is working properly across all devices.

Follow Up Chat

Your website project does not stop with the launch of the site. Really, the launch is just the start of the next stage for your online business.

We stay in touch with you and help you through any teething issues you may have. One important area is to help you understand what is happening in your store. This is where your ‘analytics’ provides you with vital intelligence.

A couple of weeks after your website has gone live is usually a good time for us to talk with you to go through your initial results in Google Analytics.

If you don’t already have your digital marketing plan in place, then we can provide suggestions on marketing strategies you can implement to help bring more customers to your website and grow your online store.

    Have a Question About PrestaShop?

    How Much Does PrestaShop Cost?

    PrestaShop is Open Source to start. Where PrestaShop makes its money is on the themes and modules, which range from a few dollars to hundreds of dollars.

    You will likely need to hire a PrestaShop designer and development team to build and maintain your website due to its complexity. So remember to factor in the external cost when considering which platform to go with.

    What Type of Business Would PrestaShop Not Be Suited To?

    PrestaShop is not suited to small to medium eCommerce stores that earn under $10k in sales per month. The website development costs can be extensive, and some of the modules that provide extra functionality can be relatively expensive.

    For smaller sites, we’d usually recommend an easier-to-use software like Shopify or Woocommerce. Smaller stores aren’t likely to need as complex functionality and integrations. This means less time to build – and so the setup costs are less. You need to get a good return on investment (ROI), and there is no point in spending money unnecessarily. If a simpler website system is fit for your purpose and will cost you less, then that is usually a smarter decision.

    What Makes PrestaShop More Technically Complicated Compared to Other Softwares?

    Since PrestaShop is an open-source software, it means lots of developers can build custom modules. As these are all created independently, some modules may not be compatible with each other. This may lead to bugs on your website that are difficult to diagnose and fix.

    At Concise, our PrestaShop experts know what modules are compatible and which aren’t. So you’ll save time and money on testing and get the right mix of modules installed right the first time.

    Can Concise Digital Support An Existing PrestaShop Website Anywhere In Australia?

    Yes, a lot of businesses that already use PrestaShop come to us for support or advanced technical help, and it does not matter where the business is located. Most of our clients are in Australia, but you can be located anywhere really.

    The team of PrestaShop experts at Concise Digital are not just Perth web designers or Geelong web designers. We have an excellent track record of helping PrestaShop business clients wherever they are located across Australia.

    Concise Digital is a long-standing PrestaShop partner, and as far as we know, Concise is the only digital agency in Australia that is technically certified for PrestaShop.
