web page getting started

[specialk1]

Hey
I have started a new business which needs an internet facility for the customers to order straight from my web page - with visa.

The only thing I have done is go onto go daddy and choose my name which is available .com

Can someone advise me what is next and is there anyone out there cheap enough to help me get started?

Hi Katrina

How many products are you looking to retail online?

Do you have a merchant account yet?

Regards

Hey
I am looking to retail one product and no I do not have a merchant account. How do I go about that??

There are options available to you and as you are selling only 1 product, purchasing software may prove to be negative cost effective.

Whilst getting established, you could select one of the various schemes that do not require a merchant account.

You can get some further advice by reading my article (the 3rd link in my sig).

I hope this helps.

Hi Katrina

We do offer a low cost website service, and can be paid monthly... but as others have said it does help to get an idea of your business and what your needs are.

Ordering from a webpage can be as simple as a PayPal 'Pay Now' button, or it can have it's own e-commerce system and cart... all depending on your business and its needs, as well as the customers!

Hi Katrina,

I am based in the southwest and offer web design services. I am a new member here so i am unable to post you a link to my website until i have made 15 posts. I will send you a PM with a link to my website.

If you only have 1 product you don't really need a full ecommerce website. We could design a develop a cost effective website for you and include product page with links through to paypal or google checkout to handle the payment side of things.

If you are interested i have sent you my details in a PM.

Best Wishes

Rick
