Is there any other e-commerce site besides PayPal?

How can I start an eCommerce site?

  • Actually, I want to start an online business and I need a website for uploading my product details and for selling. Can anyone tell me what the requirements are for starting it? Actually, it is my dream, but I have very little money. I also read some blogs and I listen. I have to open a merchant account at my local bank, so please tell me also about any possible charges. I want to sell clothes and other accessories. Can people pay through my site if I open a merchant account? Does there have to be any security system? Do all eCommerce sites need a host and reputable host provider? Someone told me about http://www.izzonet.com/streetwise-ecommerce/ecommerce-hostingprovider, what do you think about this provider? Please tell me about the total cost without product costs like opening my site, design, marketing, and other necessary costs. Thanks and I hope you solve this problem and give me a better solution.

  • Answer:

    Well the simplest way to sell anything ober the web is ebay. You could make some money from that and use that to invest in an e-commerce site. The best all in one shopping cart I've used is Actinic - google it and you can download a trial version, add paypal & hosting and you complete.

I would recommend you to go with ready-to-start ecommerce platforms as developing an in-house solution will waste a lot of time. I also believe that stepping in to do every business task is not the job of the entrepreneur. You cannot assign all these tasks to yourself as you need to concentrate on growing your company. You should hire professionals who will handle your website right from day one. I would suggest you to use http://eshoppingtool.com/ as the ecommerce platform for your online store as they provide A-Z of ecommerce solutions. They have a unique software that will turn your online store into an automated one. You won't have to worry about the functionality of frontend or backend, as their expert team will take care of all that.

The question is about the technical side, I suppose? Then it's a matter of choosing the platform. Basically you'll be choosing between: 1. Independent shopping cart solutions. These are usually not that easy to set up and maintain without previous experience. Will need some extra IT help. Perfect option if you are tech savvy and very serious about your e-com business. 2. Store builders such as Shopify. Will take some time to set up and definitely quiet a lot of time to update, enrich with plugins etc. But can easily scale while your business grows (or if it grows). Great option if you know that your business will do well and is worth investing. 3. Social selling tools, like http://Inselly that allow to create a store with pictures you post on Instagram. It's free, takes only a minute to start, but can only scale up to a certain level. An option to choose if you need a quick & simple start with no hassle.

First of all, you need a domain for you site. Then, you need to choose a platform to build your site. If you use ASP.NET, I recommend nopCommerce. If you use PHP, there are many good PHP-based applications like PrestaShop, Zencart, OpenCart, BigCommerce, etc. Once you made the decision of platform, you need to find a reliable hosting provider to host your site.  For ASP.NET hosting, I suggest you to try http://Host4ASP.NET. And If you go with PHP, providers like Bluehost, JustHostare also good options.
