Do I need a hosting plan? No, our e-Commerce DIY Business solutions come with a 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.

What level of shopping cart software do I need? Choose a Starter ShopSite shopping cart if you will have less than 5 product pages. If you want to offer digital downloads, choose Manager. If you want to offer gift certificates, digital coupons, digital downloads or customer rewards then choose the Pro level. View a full comparison of features

I don’t have any experience creating a website. Can you help me? All our eCommerce DIY Business Plans are designed to allow you to create your own website using a set of intuitive and easy to use tools that you access from your web browser. The system comes with comprehensive online help. If you are not sure whether this is the system for you contact us with your request for a 7-day Free Trial!

If you prefer to have someone else do the work, or if you want complete flexibility on the design layout, features and more, or if shared hosting is not for you, then please take a look at our Professional e-Commerce website development services and let our team provide you with a professional e-commerce solution with a custom-designed website.
