Create an eCommerce Store with Twikster

How do you build an online store? Do we need to be a registered company before we can start selling online? Is it the right time for me to start selling online? Is selling online even going to be profitable?

There are a lot of questions that come to mind before one starts selling online. It can get very difficult and confusing to make these decisions. But the question that confuses sellers the most is how can I start an online store? There are so many development companies and SaaS companies, what’s the right way to go?

Well, there are two options that people consider. First, developing their website from scratch which means getting it done from a developer ground up. This approach has it’s pros as well as cons. The flexibility is definitely a lot more as any change required can be made to suit the seller’s exact requirement but the cost and timelines for this is huge. If you have the time, budget and patience to get things done, you could consider this option. But of course, in today’s fast paced world, there is barely any scope for these things.
