Ecommerce website design in Chennai
An online store isn't a catalogue with a buy button. It's a chain of small decisions between someone wanting your product and their money arriving — and it only works if every link is tested.
What the build includes
Everything below is in the base price. The add-ons are listed separately so you can decide.
Where Indian stores lose the sale
Cart abandonment here has specific causes, and most of them are fixable in the build rather than with discounts afterwards.
-
Shipping cost revealed late
A ₹90 delivery charge appearing at step three feels like a trick. Show it on the product page.
-
Forced account creation
Guest checkout with a phone number is enough. Nobody wants a password for a one-off purchase.
-
No COD option
Still a large share of orders outside metro cores. Offer it, with a small fee if the margin needs it.
-
Pincode uncertainty
A pincode check on the product page answers "will it even reach me" before the cart.
-
Payment failure dead-end
UPI drops happen. The cart must survive it and offer another method instead of emptying.
-
Return policy hidden
First-time buyers look for it before paying. Put it beside the button, not in the footer.

Ecommerce FAQs
How much does an ecommerce website cost in Chennai?
₹45,000 for the base build with up to 50 products. Add-ons are quoted separately — bulk catalogues, variants, subscriptions and a Tamil version are the common ones. Hosting for a store runs higher than a normal site, roughly ₹8,000 to ₹15,000 a year.
Shopify or WooCommerce?
I build on WooCommerce because you own it outright with no monthly platform fee, which matters at small volumes. Shopify is genuinely easier if you have no technical help at all and do not mind the subscription — I will tell you if that is your situation.
Can I add products myself afterwards?
Yes, and that is the point of the training walkthrough. Adding products, changing prices and marking things out of stock should never need a developer.
Do you handle payment gateway registration?
I set up and test the integration. The account itself has to be registered in your business name with your documents — that is a legal requirement, not me passing work back to you.
What about GST and invoicing?
Tax rates are configured per product and the store generates GST-compliant invoices. Your accountant should confirm the rates before launch; I set up what they specify.
Is a store worth it if I only sell ten products?
Sometimes not. If WhatsApp orders are working and volume is low, the honest answer is to fix your product photos and a one-page site first, then build the store when order volume makes manual handling painful.
