Frequently asked questions

Before we begin

01What determines ecommerce website cost?

Cost depends on catalogue structure, page templates, product variants, checkout, customer accounts, promotions, payments, shipping, order management and target integrations. Friday Works reviews the sales flow and data before pricing so the initial release and later phases are explicit.

02Should we use an existing ecommerce platform or build custom?

An existing platform works well when the process follows common patterns and speed matters. Custom development is justified when brand experience, roles, pricing, data or integrations create meaningful differentiation. A proven platform can also be combined with selected custom components.

03Is ecommerce SEO included?

Yes. Catalogue architecture, URLs, canonicals, headings, Product schema, sitemaps, internal links, Core Web Vitals and editorial workflows are considered from the beginning. Sustainable visibility still requires accurate product data, useful content and post-launch query analysis.

04Can the site integrate with payments and shipping?

Yes, when the provider offers a suitable API or integration mechanism. The scope should define methods, callbacks, reconciliation, order states, shipping rates, service areas and error handling.

05Can ecommerce connect to a CRM, inventory or accounting system?

Yes. The integration needs a clear system of record, product and customer mapping, synchronisation states, idempotency, permissions and reconciliation to prevent duplicate or lost orders.

06Can our team manage products and orders?

Yes. The handover defines the CMS, user permissions, administrative workflows and documentation required for the team to update products, content and orders after launch.
