eCommerce setup - site selection advice needed

    Hi All;

    I'm looking to start an e-store for the first time. I have 16,000 product lines.

    I'm hoping not to have to invest too much for the startup and invest more as sales start along. Is there a website anyone would recommend for this? I find most want $50/month+ due to the number of products I have.

    I am also hoping to have the ability to upload my inventory list with pics etc to save time as they update often.

    thank you!

    Try this:

    Shopping Cart scripts: http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/e-commerce/shopping-carts/

    For all these scripts you can find installation instruction on youtube for quick and easy installation.

    For start you can use shared hosting plans. My favorite is Arvixe,I have never had a problem with them.

    I hope that this will help :)

    For building an Ecommerce store, Shopify maybe a good option for you. You can have a try.

    To increase sales conversion, live chat is an effective tool. It enables you to identify potential customers and convert them to loyal customers, such as Comm100 Live Chat, Live Person, etc.

    Personally, I would recommend BigCommerce if you some experience with store designing and such. Although, Shopify is very good and much easier to start, they do charge transaction fees - unless you use their credit card processing service as this will waive transaction fees on all plans.

    BigCommerce is a much cheaper alternative starting at $24.95 per month giving you unlimited bandwidth and no transaction fees.

    Hope this helps!
