Creating Your Own Website The Easy Way!

Nowadays, the emergence of websites be it for businesses or personal (blogs) is on the rise. Especially now that creating a website seems to be as easy as ever!

There are a lot of web development companies and a plethora of freelancers! The challenge lies in selecting the right developer. For me, as a rule of thumb, I usually recommend choosing a developer or freelancer nearest to your location. This way you can easily communicate your needs to them.

Shopping for a Shopping Cart!

Before, one of the challenges of creating a web site for small businesses is incorporating an e-commerce functionality. I remember spending a lot of time sitting down in the front of my computer keying those PHP, ASP codes just to make a simple ecommerce software work.

Nowadays there's a plethora of shopping cart software available, the challenge, now lies in choosing the right one. Just recently, I came across Ashop Commerce. Ashop Commerce offers a complete solution for merchants to sell online. One thing that interests me was their service on hosted shopping cart software. Normally, a shopping cart is a software that you install in your web server and run in from there. Using Ashop's Hosted Shopping Cart, you don't have to install anything in your server, you can actually run the shopping cart from Ashop's hosted sites. And everything is web based, you don't have to code anything except some tweaking in HTML to add or customize your branding and layout. Ashop Commerce also provides a secure checkout system. You can try it out for yourself with their 10-day free trial and see how good their shopping cart is.

Here's a short list of their shopping cart features:

  • Web based store administration with no graphic design or HTML skills required
  • Fully web optimised structure, Page titles with keywords embedded
  • Easy shopping cart payment gateway setup (2 minutes)
  • Accept credit cards, real time payments
