No matter whether your on-line selling requirement is large or small, CDDS can create a site and a solution that will fit your needs.

The recommended solution will depend upon a number of factors, but the most important is the number of items you will be offering for sale. If you only have a small number of different products, then a simple custom site maybe all that is required, whereas a large variety of products will require a database driven web site where your current stock holding is automatically updated by the on-line transaction.

On-line authorisation of the credit card transaction via your Merchant Account can be handled immediately, or you can opt for a deferred order processing if that is more suited to your organisation.

It is important to remember that the on-line transaction is only the first step.

It is vital that you have thoroughly thought through your distribution and returns strategy. E-commerce is only another way of taking orders and payments. It makes your "shop window" accessible to a much larger public, but it doesn't replace or change the basic business you are in.

Our Services:

We specialise in PHP/MySQL Custom e-commerce solutions with all credit card transactions being handled via SSL (Secure Socket Layer) communications. All sensitive data stored in the database is also encrypted. Your client's security (and your reputation) is our highest priority.=

The PHP/MySQL solution will provide quick and responsive sites that will not frustrate your customers. Typically, MySQL sites are at least 4 times faster than .asp driven sites, and at least 70% faster than equivalent ColdFusion or other database-driven solutions.This is because MySQL is the only commonly available database that has been designed exclusively for web use.

These sites can be easily maintained on-line either by yourself as our client, or by our selves via a maintenance contract.

We can also enable you to get many sales statistics from your website sales
