Tiivistelmä
E-commerce happens everywhere from developed countries to developing ones, and is becoming an essential part of business nowadays.
This Bachelor’s thesis is about developing an e-commerce website in English in the Wordpress platform to sell digital images under royalty-free license. This website serves a personal business purpose and all images on sale are fully legal and they are taken personally by the owner of the website.
There are two theoretical parts inside the thesis. The first one covers self-research about features, types, and trends of e-commerce in general. The second part concentrates on researching about how selling online digital images operates and what legal infrastructure it is based on.
The development part covers technical issues of building a website, from choosing suitable e-commerce platform, selecting domain and hosting service to customizing the website’s interface and protecting images. This part also describes all steps required to submit an image from personal computer to be a product on sale online.
By combining photography as hobby, business spirit, and information technology knowledge, the thesis results in launching a personal e-commerce website, where products are digital images. The development progress of the AvBpix website took place from September to November 2013.
