• E-commerce is constantly evolving and has become
  a very strong medium of trading. With the online
  retail sales making sky high profits, it is also
  the perfect time for you to enter the e-commerce
  world. However, gaining entry is not so easy for
  a start-up and you may face a number of
  challenges in the initial phase. To start with,
  you have to compete with companies that are
  well-established and have all the required
  resources and manpower. You can grow your online
  business with e-commerce website development. But
  first make a note of your business requirement
  as there are a number of ecommerce business tools
  at little or no cost that can prove to be very
  helpful in laying the foundation of your
  business.
• Google Analytics
• This tool is a blessing for the marketers today
  as it provides them deep analysis and information
  about their website visitors with timely
  interactions and reports at zero cost. Google
  Analytics helps them to get real time information
  about the visitors and their source. This in
  turn can help the website owners to engage with
  the customers through pop-ups and offers.
• MailChimp
• This free email marketing service allows you to
  send newsletters along with creating subscriber
  forms for social media or website, templates for
  email and newsletters, automated messages etc.

  absolutely free of cost. Some of them are Website
  SEO score checker, Website page speed checker,
  link tracker etc.
• Shopify
• It is the most useful tool for a start-up and can
  be very helpful in building and promoting an
  online store. You can register on the Shopify
  Facebook Store page and load the photo of your
  product along with a description and price after
  which Shopify will display it on your Facebook or
  business page. They also have an app store with
  numerous free and paid apps that help various
  businesses. E-commerce development companies can
  also help you with features in Shopify for
  managing product inventory.
• Cloudflare
• It protects and accelerates your website and
  routes the web traffic through its intelligent
  global network. It works towards saving the
  bandwidth and server resources from bots and
  crawlers.
• WordPress
• Brands just need to create a landing page in
  WordPress for social media campaigns and updates.
  These pages usually have blogs related to their
  companys updates, research, discussions on
  industry trends and picture content with some
  message etc. WordPress has multiple themes and
  setting options and also their forums are quick
  to answer your queries.
• Kissmetrics
• Although quite similar to Google Analytics,
  Kissmetrics can additionally send auto triggered
  emails based on the customer behaviour. Google
  doesnt recognize people via their email id which
  is done by Kissmetrics. Hence its possible to
  communicate with the users and track
  effectiveness.
