Starting an E-Commerce Website in Trinidad & Tobago, Part 5: Series Final

In case you didn’t know, this series rank as the number one returned result for a website design company on Google T&T for both keywords ‘e-commerce in trinidad and tobago’ and ‘e commerce trinidad’. I’ve put a lot of thought and effort into each article which hopefully provided you with the answers you were looking for.

An added bonus was being called on by the Trinidad Guardian newspaper for my insights as a result of these articles which I highlighted here Forward Multimedia in the Media.

I now want to wrap up this series to make way for a new one simply because a lot has changed since the very first article was published waaay back in 2011 (by today’s measure that’s eons!) and I want to make things relevant to the environment as it exists now in 2013. Of course what hasn’t changed shall remain in the discussion but I want to keep things fresh to put you at ease when you’re reading.

So a new series is forthcoming, titled: “Don’t be afraid to start an e-commerce website in Trinidad & Tobago”, and I deliberately chose that title because of what I’m seeing in the marketplace today. Now that the payment issue has been figured out (First Atlantic Commerce) I’m getting calls about it everyday. But I still say ‘not so fast!’ and I’ll explain what I mean. By all means, still make your plans but you need to listen to me as even the best laid plans…well. So get ready!

About the Author

admin

I am Zaf Rahaman, owner of Forward Multimedia Ltd, a Trinidad based digital agency now in our 13th year. Through my experience acquired on the ground since 2011, I’ve become known as one of the foremost authorities in E-Commerce, especially as it pertains to Trinidad & Tobago.

I began writing blog articles on various topics after observing the lack of online information about local E-Commerce. These articles quickly propelled the Forward Multimedia to the number one position on Google for all major industry keywords, a position consistently held since without challenge.

In 2018 I was an invited panelist in the annual Trinidad and Tobago Internet Governance Forum. Also in 2018 I was an invited speaker for the launch of the Virtual Caribbean DNS Entrepreneurship Center (VDECC) an initiative of ICANN- the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the international body that that coordinates the Domain Name System (DNS) worldwide.

I was also a stakeholder consultant for the Ministry of Trade & Industry’s National E-Commerce Policy which was passed in December 2018, with many of my recommendations making it to the final policy.

Most of all, I love to write AND love to write on everything website and E-Commerce related to help business owners in Trinidad & Tobago get the most out of their online presence.

ALL articles and pages on my site are written by me, in my voice, from the ground up, and for you, from a Trini perspective, using local examples and applications.
