E-shop
Development

Lovers of technology and innovation… we’re building a better internet, day by day, one e-shop at a time!

Firstidea

You no longer need a store in the center of Athens. All you need is a great e-shop, a computer, a phone, and plenty of passion for your work!

E-shop Development for EVERYONE!

E-shops are the most promising type of website because they expand your store’s reach and customer base far beyond the limits of your local area. Potential customers grow from thousands to millions, revenues multiply, and operating costs drop dramatically.

Firstidea specializes in e-shop development and offers the right solution for every need. We provide affordable e-shop packages for small businesses looking to make an easy entry into e-commerce, as well as advanced e-shops with the most sophisticated features for companies that demand the very best!

For the development of B2B (wholesale) or B2C (retail) e-shops, we use one of the world’s top and most advanced platforms — OpenCart. In highly demanding projects, we combine it with Joomla to take advantage of the powerful capabilities of both platforms!

At the same time, we also develop e-shops using the WordPress platform, leveraging WooCommerce for flexibility, modern design, and the ability to quickly adapt to each business’s specific needs.

Do you want your own e-shop?

E-shop Development with OpenCart

Unlimited products and categories

If your e-shop is going to host thousands of products, OpenCart is definitely the right partner for you. With its MegaMenus, advanced filters, and smart search options, no matter how many products you have, navigation will always remain easy and functional.

It’s lightning fast!

With its clean, high-quality code, it performs every task at incredible speed. Speed is crucial not only for your e-shop visitors but also for your ranking in Google search results!

Its solid and reliable design ensures that every process is always completed as it should be. You can rest assured that your e-shop will never lose an order due to an error at any stage of the customer transaction.

Excellent built-in e-shop features!

Right out of the box, it offers exactly the features you need — and even more. It’s one of the most complete e-shop packages available in the e-commerce market.

It’s highly expandable!

You can start affordably with its core features — which are more than sufficient — and gradually add new functions as your needs grow. Choose from around 13,000 existing extensions, or ask us to develop a fully customized solution tailored specifically for you!

E-shop Development with WordPress

Unlimited products and categories

WooCommerce allows you to upload an unlimited number of products and categories — whether they’re physical or digital. With powerful filtering tools, a user-friendly menu, and advanced search functionality, your customers can easily find exactly what they’re looking for.

It’s flexible and powerful!

Easy multilingual support

Within the same product or category editing tab, you can add all your translations — making your e-shop bilingual or multilingual quickly and with minimal extra effort.

Globalization

Flexible and easy attribute assignment

Both OpenCart and WordPress with WooCommerce allow you to assign different attributes to each product — such as size, color, body type (four-door or two-door), engine capacity, horsepower, or any other specification you need — with each attribute dynamically affecting the final product price in the cart.

E-shop Development with Top-Tier Specifications

Mobile firendly E-Shop - Responsive Design

All e-shops developed by Firstidea are fully responsive — 100% mobile-friendly.
With the rapid rise in mobile device usage for browsing the internet, it’s absolutely essential that visitors can navigate your e-shop easily from any device — whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop.
All your website’s content automatically adapts to the screen size, adjusting its layout to remain perfectly visible, readable, and user-friendly at all times.

Social Media Friendly Eshop

We connect your e-shop with all popular social networks and create the corresponding accounts for you if you don’t already have them.
We also add easy social sharing buttons, allowing visitors to share your content with just one click — helping you attract even more visitors and potential customers.

Google Friendly EShop - S.E.O. Optimized

Your e-shop is built with all the necessary specifications and optimized techniques to help you quickly reach the top positions in Google rankings.

Automatic shipping cost calculation

Your e-shop will be able to automatically calculate shipping costs based on various parameters that we set according to your needs.
For example, it can calculate costs depending on the recipient’s address and the item’s volume or weight. Alternatively, it can calculate based on the item’s value or any other method you require. Shipping cost calculation can even extend globally if your e-shop serves customers outside Greece.

Multiple payment methods

At Firstidea, the e-shops we develop can integrate all possible payment methods — both popular and niche.
You can accept payments via cash on delivery, PayPal, and bank transfers, as well as credit card payments through Greek banks — either in full or in installments.
We can also integrate additional, less common payment options in Greece, such as Skrill, Klarna, and many more.

Impressive and detailed e-shop product presentation

The right product presentation is what will make your e-shop stand out from the competition — especially when you’re selling branded products that appear in multiple online stores.

The product descriptions in the e-shops we build at Firstidea are designed to impress and can be enriched with:

  • Product videos
  • Photo galleries
  • Advanced zoom features
  • Tabs for detailed content organization
  • Sliders
  • Related products
  • Promotional banners and call-to-action elements

Live Chat & News Letter

We want you to stay connected with your customers and build genuine relationships! That’s why every e-shop we create at Firstidea includes an integrated Live Chat system and an email collection & newsletter tool to help you maintain ongoing communication with your audience.
The systems we use are so advanced that they allow real-time tracking of your e-shop activity and even automatic newsletter generation featuring your newest products!

Product Reviews from Your E-shop Customers

With the goal of increasing customer engagement on your e-shop, we integrate a fully admin-controlled product review system.
Customers can visit your store, rate the products they’ve purchased, and leave feedback — helping you build trust and credibility while improving your offerings.

Special Product Categories such as Bestsellers, New Arrivals & More

Firstidea e-shops include special product categories that can be updated either automatically — such as New Arrivals or Bestsellers — or manually by the store administrator, who can select which products to feature under categories like Special or Featured Items.

Easy Checkout & Real-Time Order Tracking

The checkout process should be simple, fast, and enjoyable.
That’s why Firstidea eShops use the One Page Checkout method, allowing all necessary details to be completed on a single page — reducing steps and boosting conversions.
In addition, the system enables your customers to track their order status in real time, enhancing transparency and trust in your brand.

Multiple product search filters

We want your customers to easily find exactly what they’re looking for — even among thousands of products in your eShop.
That’s why we use advanced Ajax-based filters, allowing users to refine their search in just a few clicks — for example: red t-shirt, short-sleeved, with print, between €60 and €70!

Integration of your eShop with Skroutz & BestPrice

We can create a custom integration file connecting your eShop with all major price comparison platforms such as Skroutz and BestPrice.
This is something we highly recommend, as it has proven to be one of the most effective ways to promote and boost the visibility of your eShop.

eShop Performance Optimization

After completing the development of your eShop, we perform a thorough configuration and optimization process across all aspects of its operation.
We fine-tune speed, security, and SEO performance, using advanced techniques that only a few web development agencies apply.
