    I've built an ecommerce site using www.blue-cart.net software. But I wanted to rebuild my site using Wordpress, WP-E-Commerce plugin. You know that Wordpress is good for doing SEO. Can anyone give me any suggestion that which Wordpress ecommerce plugin will be better for me to use? The plugin should have also contain Product Feed option. Thanks to all.

    If you're building an ecommerce site and want sales, then "customer friendly" takes precedence over "SEO friendly" . I'd use a free opensource cart like PrestaShop (which is also SEO friendly and is very easy to setup and has a large number of free plugins including a google shopping feed). I use Prestashop for 7 of my stores and Zen Cart (also free but harder to customize than PrestaSop) on 8 stores.

    "which Wordpress ecommerce plugin will be better for me to use"
    WP E-commerce has the largest community but from my experience (and the reviews of others) it's buggy. WooCommerce is another one.

    WooCommerce currently have some buggy issues as well. WP E-Commerce has a bigger community support if i am not mistaken.

    Wordpress's custom ad plugin is great if you don't have it already and want an alternative to Adsense.
