e-Commerce website design, DIY Beginner

Our DIY Beginner eCommerce plans include Do-It-Yourself web design tools. If you require a custom-built, professional e-commerce website, please see our e-Commerce Pro plans instead.

These e-Commerce and website design tools can quickly get you off the ground, with zero setup fees. Our DIY Beginner eCommerce plans are part of the EasySite Plus Website Generator found in our Shared Web Hosting Plans, which also include a free website generator and online marketing tools.

If you are new to the world of shared hosting, a Basic plan is the perfect start for your website and your electronic storefront. You’ll get plenty of resources and email for a small website.

If you anticipate higher traffic, we recommend the Enhanced plan, and lastly, if your business requires more resources to support lots of graphics, Flash or a high traffic website then we recommend the Premium shared hosting plan.

What is Shared Web Hosting? Shared web hosting is a service where multiple users and websites reside on one server and share the same server resources. Each site or user has its own section on the server, and shares resources with other sites/users. This is the most cost-effective solution for hosting, as many users share the cost of maintaining the server. This is the most affordable hosting solution for small business owners who don’t want the hassle of maintaining their own private server. If you are interested in a Professional e-Commerce, Managed Solution instead, please see our Professional e-Commerce all-inclusive solution instead.

How do I choose a hosting plan? Choose a hosting plan that will accommodate the growth of your online business. Consider how many visitors you will have, how many pages your website will be and how much you are predicting your online business to grow in the next year to two years. Consider choosing a hosting plan level that offers more resources than you need today. Then you will less likely need to migrate or change plans as your business evolves.

What is data transfer or monthly transfer? Data transfer is the amount of data transferred from your website to the visitor’s browser. Data is usually provided in gigabytes (GB) – (1 GB = 1 billion bytes) – and allotted monthly, meaning you can have a certain amount of data transfer every month. Data refers to text, images, audio and video files that require various amounts of data to transfer. Larger media files, such as high resolution photographs or video, require more data transfer.

How much transfer do I need? You can figure out how much data transfer you will require by estimating your average page size (including graphics!) and multiplying it by the number of page views you expect to have in a month. For example with an average page size of 50 KB, and around 2000 page views per day, you will transfer an average of 3 gigabytes (GB) per month.

What is Unlimited Disk Space? We do not apply specific limits to the amount of disk space you can use for website content. The term “Unlimited” is for content directly related to the site’s content. Disk space is not to be use for file storage, only website content. You can also include up to 5GB of Multimedia content.

Can I keep my Domain Name when I change hosting providers? Yes. Even if you purchased your domain name from your existing hosting provider, your domain name and web hosting package are two separate entities. You can point your domain name to any hosting provider to display your web pages. Confirm that you are the administrative contact for the domain through our WHOIS service. Enter your domain name and be sure that your name and email appears for the Administrative contact. If it doesn’t, you will need to contact that person to re-point your domain name to your new web hosting package. See also our Domain Name Services for more information and assistance on Domain Names.
