Want to have an online store but can't pay the fifty bucks a month or
more for a real ecommerce hosting solution? Here's an alternative.
So you have something you want to sell, right? eBay is good marketplace online, and there are thousands of them, but you just
want your own little e-store. You want to experiment and learn some
things and maybe make a little or even alot of money but the common
ecommerce hosting solutions are a bit out of your desired price range.
Here are some easy and very affordable
choices you have to get to your intended goal. These choices will be
based on a combination of good, quality budget web hosting and a couple
of the many free ecommerce software solutions out there.
An
easy and free way to take credit card payments online is to get a
Paypal account. Paypal provides many solid services to online merchants
and is easily the most popular online payment gateway available.
They
offer integration with ebay auctions as well as buttons for people to
purchase things from you and also a fully customizable shopping cart.
Go to www.paypal.com to find out more.
If you only have a few products to sell Paypals shopping cart may work
well for you. You can just stick pictures and information about your
products on a web site and add Paypal buttons for each product.
Certain hosting providers have a spot on their hosting control panels
to easily install ecommerce scripts. With the click of a mouse you can
have a full featured ecommerce solution ready to add your products to.
Usually this includes stuff like product reviews, new products,
specials, paypal or other payment gateway integration and news letters.
One of my favorite free ecommerce scripts is called osCommerce.
Most
web hosting companies provide easy installation for this. Good web
hosting is usually between $70 and $120 a year. Add a payment solution
like Paypal to this and some good products and you have your site. Now
you have to market it. Thats another article altogether though.
