    Hello all,

    I'd like to make an online shopping site and I really need help as this would be my first time. What should I do in order to start online shopping site?

    1. What payment processor should I use? FYI, I am currently in Indonesia, thus I can't use PayPal.

    2. Do I need to have a company first or I could just run it as an individual person?


    Thanks in advance,

    I get a host with Fanastico and try a script that autoinstalls like Oscommerce. Give authorize.net a try with that for your payment processor.

    Hmm... is it save to autoinstall from fantastico? Well, I got fantastico now on my cpanel, might try it now.

    About the payment proc, which one is better, authorize.net or 2CO?

    Thanks
