Create My Online Store

Dazzling Image · 13-01-2010, 11:02 AM

Hi,

I have a very simple website now but I intend to turn it into a online store.
Below are the requirement I need for an online store

1) Account -->previous order
-->My Account -->Change of account information
-->Change account password
-->My orders--> show customer previous only
2) Shopping cart
3) Check out for order
4) Register/Login
5) Search option (for the ease of customer to find our products)
6) Currencies

I do not want to engage a web desginer and I am thinking of doing it myself.
Is there anywhere I can learn how to do these?

Please advise, thanks

The features that you listed are definitely supported by all the open-source shopping cart script.

For something simple, i would recommend you to look at prestashop.

Hi fancypocket,

thanks.

Do you use it in your website as well?

noeclue · 13-01-2010, 12:19 PM

nope ... i use customized paid shopping cart.

May i ask, how much did you spend?
Did they do your website for you?

I did it myself. Frankly speaking, dont waste any money paying someone to create a shopping cart.

If you are not familiar with it, you can always get a hosting company which provide an ecommerce installation free. eg. installatron, fantastico, etc. Join the cart's community forum and read their manual.

Save your $ elsewhere or transfer to me

Sherney, I was using one called on.sg. the bad part about them is that they are not contactable by phone, only email. just check around online, then ask the people here to see if anyone has complaints. then you can know what the market is like.

I'm using Pozhub.com and Usonyx. both works well, with good support.
