Therefore, there are two very common obstacles that our high-growth merchants face as they scale their business, and how Shoplazza solves their growing-pains.

Part 1. Infrastructural Solutions

Obstacle 1: High traffic volume and seasonal sales spikes.

According to the merchants, their biggest concern lies at the handling of several temporary spikes of traffic into the store. Despite efforts to prepare for the influx of traffic, including costly server maintenance fees and storage rental expenses, impatient online shoppers may still encounter slow loading pages, broken images and lost shopping cart items even if an express checkout route is available. A vast amount of carts were abandoned costing millions of dollars each year, no matter whether the business size is large or small.

Scaling up won’t bring your any Ads exposure, it happens all behind the scenes. But it does mean an exponential update on traffic handling capacity that will benefit each merchants’ store. In this case, whatever the product may be, or whoever the shopper profiles could be, store owners must understand their capabilities of handling traffic spikes without crashing the store or slowing down the shopping experiences during those seasonal high-traffic sales events, like a Black Friday.

Shoplazza’s solution: advanced cloud architecture is specifically designed for high-volume traffic resiliency.
