There are four main phases of a BigCommerce development process...
After you reach out to a BigCommerce website developer, they will arrange discovery calls to get insight into what you’re looking for. Usually, there are a couple of calls in this phase of the process, so the agency has a well-formed understanding of what you’re looking for. Once expectations are set, a contract will be proposed for the project. The next phase begins after the contract is signed.
The second phase of the process is BigCommerce web development. This is when the agency team starts to act on the established plan. BigCommerce developers undertake tasks like BigCommerce custom design and BigCommerce theme development, primarily focusing on enhancing the BigCommerce storefront. Good developers also address the backend or admin side of the account too. They ensure seamless data transfer between the storefront and the backend. This will help the website remain as up-to-date as possible. Occasionally, merchants need a BigCommerce app developed to meet a specific need. In this case, agency partners will develop the app if they’re able or refer to a trusted business partner who can.
Once developers are close to the finish line they will test the entire functionality of the website. After all systems are confirmed and ready, then it’s time to turn on the website!
Good agency partners, like Anchor Group, will continue to support your website for a predetermined time after the launch date. Building a strong relationship with an agency partner is key to ensuring your website is always optimized, since they’re just one call away!
There is a lot that goes into it! The front end (storefront) of a website is just part of the story. There are many available back-end features, apps, and integrations that optimize a website. Thankfully, agencies like Anchor Group are experienced and trained in developing BigCommerce websites.
