PWA has been designed to use the mobile-first approach, meaning that stores that have been built using PWA, will run smoothly both on the web and the native app.
PWA stores save up to 75% of the cost of a native app, which includes development and maintenance; you simply don’t have to make a separate native app – it’ll be enough to adjust your storefront.
PWA works offline, allowing your users to keep browsing when they are not connected to the internet.
PWA uses what they call headless architecture, which separates the frontend from the backend of your ecommerce platform; making it easier to build a PWA.
Loading times are 2 to 3 times faster than standard responsive web stores. This reduces server load, which will stop those server crashes during periods of intense traffic.
If we do a side-by-side test on Twitter's Native app and their Twitter Lite app (using PWA), the later runs at 1.5mb – compared to 100mb giant of the Twitter Native app. That’s a whopping 194% difference in size.
Enrich your Ecommerce Business with a Progressive Web Application
Google pioneered the standards for Progressive Web App (PWA), which allows modern web capabilities to deliver an application like experience to its users. PWA has many benefits for businesses who implement this, the likes of eBay, AliExpress, Starbucks and West Elm have noted a 50%-100% increase in retention and conversion rates – which is quite impressive. We should also consider that in February of last year, Apple started supporting PWA – which was a real game changer for ecommerce digital leaders.
“
Ecommerce businesses can no longer ignore this movement, not if they are wanting to grow their business and fight against their competition; especially as mobile sales have taken over from desktop sales.
