Challenges when we started off

  • The design of the website was plain. On a first glance, it was unattractive, uninviting and repulsive.
  • The original eCommerce website was built using a custom PHP framework, hence no standardization of code.
  • Since it was built using a custom PHP framework, the database was unstructured.
  • It was not optimized for search engines.
  • Site navigation was poor and did not offer benefit of ease to the user. Moreover migration from a custom unstructured database to a Magento database was a challenge.

Solutions we offered

  • To ensure standardization, we proposed migration to Magento.
  • Entire database was first normalized and then mapped to Magento tables ensuring no data loss.
  • We offered a much more intuitive and user-friendly theme.
  • Built and customized numerous Magento modules to meet all requirements of the website.
  • An additional set of modifications was included, this time on the on-page structure of the webpage to optimize it for search engines. Ensuring all pages, items adhered to schema.org
