Hi

I have a physical clothing boutique and am in need of a webstore host. I need something that will be easy and quick to set up...easy to enter products, etc.


Any suggestions?

I use and really like Shoppe Pro. It's super easy to add categories/products/pages. Similarly, I like Easy Boutique Builder. It's as easy to use as Shoppe Pro.

Well I wish I'd known about these before I opened my site. Thanks for the info.

PC Mom,

I set up web sites for my clients and have a seriously amazing shopping app, ajax based, drag and drop. I have used a few and have beat my head against the wall with them. But this is so stinking easy to load and customize.

If you're interested, you can PM me or click the first link in my sig. I just set up a special yesterday for all my current blog clients. I will install the shopping cart into one of my Thesis-themed sites for only $10 until the end of November. There are NO monthly fees, NO management fees, NO per item fees. $10 for install and you are set. (You fill the store with your stuff, write descriptions, set prices, manage, etc.)

You can see two of my working shops here:

Adept Systems store

Win with 1 store (this one doesn't yet have any images, but will once I figure out what to use )

There are so many great services available. Stuff we never imagined back in the day I hand-coded my first little online catalog in 1994, with handy-dandy email ordering! Cutting edge!

Alison

Yahoo had a webstore. I am not sure if they are still offering it as a solution to merchants.

You can also try hiring a web designer to create a website for you. If you know a bit about web design, you can purchase hosting and install OS Commerce (a free PHP script) in your hosting account.

I have a web store though an "Option Cart" system with Pappashop.com and Mals eCommerce eCommerce (shopping cart). I find it very easy to learn and use. Though they have templates, you can have a custom site built.

Smile Re: webstore

Consider using Shopify or Volusion. They're both web-based solutions. If you want help setting up, let me know.

Home of a new site hosted by the pros.

Get true high-speed hosting with a robust lineup of features including OSCOMMERCE, PHPNUKE, PHPCHAT, and MYSQL and CPANEL X admin control.
