Starting a business with an e-shop

Register your domain

Choose a clear name that will make it easy for customers to find you. Is the Czech market too small for you? Instead of the .cz extension, choose .eu or .com, for example. Registration costs a few hundred crowns.

Choose hosting

You can often purchase digital space to store your website together with your domain name. The price depends on the amount of data you want to place on the website.

Implement the API

This will simplify the management of your e-shop and make shopping more efficient for your customers. Take a look at what an e-shop where your customers enjoy shopping looks like. You will especially appreciate the functions for transferring and tracking shipments, generating address labels, choosing morning or afternoon delivery time slots, as well as inventory and accounting records, including EET.

Select payment system

The most popular method of payment for goods in our country is still cash on delivery, but more and more customers are using bank transfer upon personal collection and card payment via a payment gateway located on your e-shop or provided by a third party.

Secure e-shop

Finally, here are some tips for keeping your e-shop data secure in the turbulent environment of the internet:

1. Protect your data with antivirus and antispam software.
2. Choose a strong password that no one can crack.
3. Set up an SSL certificate.
4. Back up your data using cloud storage or your hosting provider.
5. Install debugging software to find errors in your software.
