The client, Vrzvanstv Rache, wanted to expand the capabilities of his existing website by managing two different online stores under one admin control panel. His goal was to simplify operations while keeping each store visually distinct and brand-specific.
To achieve this, I built a multi-store OpenCart environment where both stores, each with its own design and content, could be controlled from a single backend dashboard. This allowed seamless management, efficient updates, and centralized performance tracking.
Project Goals
- Develop a multi-store setup using OpenCart’s advanced architecture.
- Create a new subdomain store with a dedicated landing page.
- Maintain a consistent user experience across both stores.
- Simplify the admin workflow by connecting both stores under one control panel.
- Optimize each store for performance, speed, and SEO.
My Role & Contributions
I took complete responsibility for the technical setup, configuration, and customization of the OpenCart system to ensure both stores worked flawlessly together.
Key Tasks Completed:
✅ OpenCart Multi-Store Configuration – Enabled and configured the multi-store feature, connecting both stores under one admin panel.
✅ New Subdomain Setup – Created a separate landing page and store on a subdomain (store.meai.ro) for the client’s new business line.
✅ Theme & Layout Customization – Designed each store with unique layouts while maintaining a cohesive brand identity.
✅ Homepage & Landing Page Design – Built engaging, conversion-optimized landing pages to attract and retain visitors.
✅ Category & Product Management – Organized product structure and navigation for a smooth shopping experience.
✅ Performance Optimization – Improved loading speed and responsiveness across all devices.
✅ SEO Setup – Implemented SEO-friendly URLs and metadata for better visibility.
✅ Client Training – Guided the client on managing both stores from the single OpenCart dashboard efficiently.
Outcome
The result was a powerful, flexible, and easy-to-manage multi-store system built with OpenCart. Both stores now operate independently in terms of content, design, and promotions—but remain connected under one administrative panel for convenience.
The client was very satisfied with the outcome, appreciating the ability to manage both stores effortlessly. This project showcased the true potential of OpenCart as a scalable CMS capable of handling multiple e-commerce stores in one system.
