Lector - Where Books Find You

Bookstores are becoming a part of the digital landscape, with several companies creating eCommerce stores offering published books catering to the needs of book enthusiasts. Moreover, some eCommerce app development companies also design apps that allow book owners to sell or rent their books.

Lector is fast becoming the leader of the online bookstore marketplace. The company is keen on developing an eCommerce store where people can find various published books on different genres. The demand for easy access to high-quality books is increasing in the market.

eCommerce app development is a complex project as it demands advanced filtering, secure payment options, and seamless navigation features.

Challenges:

One of the challenges in this process was enabling advanced search functionalities. The eCommerce app required superior filtering functionalities on various categories. Due to many reasons, customers sometimes wouldn’t find the right book because of misspelled keywords or using wrong author names.

Solutions:

Since this project was pretty complicated, we decided to build an MVP to understand the intricacies involved in development. We developed a smart site search functionality during eCommerce mobile app development. We also made use of natural language processing, auto-complete, and error-correction features so that the site can intelligently search through the database for related books. Additionally, we included pre-booking facilities as well to improve customer retention.
