Frequently Asked Questions about Online Shop Development
How long does it take to have an online shop created?
The time it takes until your online shop is finalised depends on its scope and complexity. A standard shop with a not overly wide range of features can go live within just a few weeks, while bespoke solutions may require several months before going live.
How much does it cost to have an online shop created?
The cost of creating an online shop varies depending on the technology, scope of features and integrations required. We are always available to provide you with an individual assessment – with no further obligation.
Can dotSource also help migrate to a new shop system?
Yes. dotSource supports you in switching to a new shop system, from analysing your existing shop and planning data and interface migrations to technical implementation, quality assurance and go-live preparation.
How can I optimise my online shop for higher sales?
With a well-thought-out user experience, conversion optimisation, personalisation and AI-powered features, you can tailor your shop both to the needs of your target audience and to the requirements of search engines. Continuous analysis and optimisation of your online shop are also crucial.
How is a new shop system implemented?
The implementation of a new shop system begins with analysing requirements, defining objectives and selecting the appropriate system. Building on this, the technical concept, the system architecture and the relevant integrations are prepared. In the subsequent implementation phase, technical development, bespoke adaptations, the integration of existing systems and quality assurance measures follow. Before go-live, tests are carried out and the transition is prepared. After launch, the system is stabilised and continuously developed further.
What happens before a new online shop goes live?
Before go-live, our team completes all relevant integrations and quality assurance activities. Depending on the project, this includes functional checks, interface testing, preparing data migrations and the final coordination of the target system. The aim is to prepare the launch of the new online shop in a controlled manner and reduce risks during the transition.
What happens after the go-live of a new shop system?
Immediately after go-live, the initial focus is on stabilising the system. During this phase, our team monitors your shop’s behaviour, identifies technical irregularities and potential errors, and makes short-term adjustments where required. This is followed by support, further technical development, performance optimisation and additional expansion steps.
Which existing systems can be integrated into a new online shop?
Existing systems are integrated into the new online shop via suitable interfaces. Depending on the project, these may include ERP, CRM, PIM, payment or other legacy systems. As part of the implementation, our team reviews which data, processes and functions need to be transferred and how the integration can best be implemented from a technical perspective. The goal is seamless integration into the existing system landscape.
When is a security assessment for an online shop advisable?
A security assessment is particularly advisable before going live, after major changes to the shop, interfaces or architecture, and when integrating new systems. This helps identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and security-related risks at an early stage, before they affect ongoing operations or the processing of sensitive data.
