Overview
What R-Commerce is used for
- R-Commerce is a website-building platform for creating company-branded websites and displaying product and service details.
- It is intended for customers who sell products on a website and is presented as a sales and online-store option.
- The package can support selling tour packages.
- E-commerce sales can be added in the future.
- R-Commerce can be customized according to customer requirements.
Building and customizing an R-Commerce website
- A proposed website includes approximately five pages covering the home page, company or about page, product or service details, contact information, and customer references.
- Websites can organize offerings into categories such as houses, land, townhomes, offices, and factories.
- When the amount of information is not extensive, tags can help visitors search by location or project.
- Listing pages can include descriptions, prices, and image galleries.
- Menus can be expanded with additional menus and submenus.
- Customers can adjust menus and edit content through the administration system or backend.
