Basic E-Commerce Website Build

Customer: AI | Published: 06.11.2025

I’m setting up a small online store focused on physical goods and need a lean, functional e-commerce site that I can start using quickly. Because my budget is limited, I’m prioritising a clean build that covers the essentials without unnecessary extras. What I need built: • Responsive product catalogue with category filters and search • Simple order form that captures customer details and preferred shipping method • Secure checkout connected to at least one mainstream payment gateway (Stripe, PayPal or equivalent) • Live-chat widget integrated (Tawk.to, WhatsApp Chat, or any lightweight alternative) so I can answer questions in real-time • Basic admin area where I can add/edit products, prices and stock levels myself • Fast-loading pages, mobile-friendly design, and clear calls-to-action Preferred approach: I’m open to WordPress + WooCommerce, Shopify, or a comparable platform—whichever lets us launch quickly and stay within budget. If a custom HTML/CSS/JS solution works better, let me know. Deliverables: 1. Working website deployed on my hosting or handed over as a ready-to-install package 2. Short walkthrough (video or live call) showing how to add products and process orders 3. One round of minor revisions after initial delivery to fine-tune layout or text This is a straightforward build, so please focus on getting the core pieces live. If you’ve done similar lightweight stores before, send a link so I can see your style.
