Fashion Web Development Case Study | Snobswap

The founders of Snobswap were frequent shoppers and sellers of used designer clothes at consignment shops in DC and NYC. While they enjoyed the process, they were frustrated by how it long it took to find – and sell – most items. They wanted to move high-end consignment shopping to the Web, and gain the scale and efficiencies of an online marketplace.

Under the hood...

Zend Framework

Need to build a site from the ground up? Well, chances are if you have a website that is one of a kind, you’re going to need some custom code. Don’t worry, we've got you covered. Ameronix uses PHP and the Zend Framework. When we say that we program our websites from scratch, this is what we're talking about. The Zend Framework is a library made by the creators of PHP.

Wordpress Content Management (CMS)

Are you looking for a site which you can post articles and content? Need a site that is similar to a blog in functionality? Well, Wordpress fits your needs. Wordpress is an extremely popular and easy to use content management system. There are currently over 55 million sites that run off of Wordpress. Sites like TED, CNN, and TechCrunch all use Wordpress to manage their publishing needs. Wordpress is open source software built with PHP and MySQL.

PayPal Integration

Does your site need users to pay for merchandise or subscription? Why not offer them the easiest way to pay online? Paypal is a service that allows people to pay for anything online without the need to give the seller bank account information or credit card information. This allows for the end user to pay for things without worrying about their financial security. Paypal is one of the most used payment methods on the internet.

eCommerce / Shopping Cart

Be honest: how much do you hate chatty salespeople getting all up in your business about what you’re shopping for, who you’re shopping for and telling you all about every “great deal” in the store? Yeah, we do too. That’s why eCommerce is one of the Internet’s greatest gifts to mankind. Today, people want instant gratification—the days of circling the mall for a parking spot and weaving through gobs of people are quickly disappearing.

Social Networking

These days, it seems everybody is jumping on the Facebook bandwagon—and for good reason. Social networking sites (including MySpace, Match.com and LinkedIn) are a great way to connect with people who share your interests, opinions and passions. So it’s no surprise that companies big and small are utilizing these websites to get their name out there and hook customers.
