Do You Need An E-Commerce Website?

If you are selling a product or service and would like to allow consumers or business to purchase your products or services via the Internet, then Yes, you need an E-commerce website.

What does an E-Commerce Website entail?

An E-commerce website has all the components of an informational website, but will also provide pictures or descriptive information on your particular products or services. Some additional components involved in an e-commerce website are as follows:

Database - To hold customer information and products

Secure Sockets Layer - encrypted protection for user password, credit card and other personal informaiton.

ProPay or PayPal account - An account which allows internet acceptance and transfer of credit card information.

Shopping Cart technology - This will allow users to select products for purchasing - just like a shopping cart at the grocery store.

How Do I Get Paid?

Once a business or consumer has purchased your product(s) or service(s), the funds are transferred from their credit card into your ProPay or PayPal account. You are able to then transfer money from that account into your own bank account or simply request to have the money wired or mailed to you via check.
