Economic:
The world economy is still not stable. Webmasters have to keep an account of
what they are spending on for their website. In such situations it is important
to update your website regularly. You should redesign the website at least once
in a year to capture the current trends in e-Commerceweb development.

Simplistic:
The days of exorbitant designs are over. Now, people like simple designs that
tell it all. Try to make your website designs and development very simple and
fresh. Do not include too many features at the website, which would be hard to
develop. Always take a stock of user experience.

Focus
on Videos: Videos are the eye catchers in this present
era of e-Commerce web development.
Windowpanes in the sites are vanishing and there are plenty of spaces. These
spaces can be utilized aptly by including some banners and videos. Large videos
and banners will definitely be a trend in 2013. Make sure when you use the
videos or large images at the site, it should not slow down the site uploading
speed. The images should be saved as per their height and width. You can
replace a lot of data at your website with a well shot video. This would make
the site lighter and fast loading.

Social
Media Integration: You can manage the shop and
wish lists through Facebook. Make sure the website development has provision
for these kinds of registry in their central location. Facebook integration
allows better linking services/products.
