eShopping Carts: Comparing Apples, Oranges and Tuna Fish!

Written by Mike Banks Valentine


Have you ever bought a book, then plopped down on a pillow onrepparttar couch with a cup of coffee and some snacks ready to devour that books' contents, sip some French Roast and munch biscotti? Maybe it's Folgers and Doritos atrepparttar 109005 computer screen in this case as you open up Adobe Acrobat reader and Dr. Ralph Wilson's ebook "The Shopping Cart Report".

Either way you've gone shopping and when you put that bag of rich, fresh and aromatic French Roast whole-bean coffee in your empty shopping cart, you've put a physical object into another before moving downrepparttar 109006 bakery isle torepparttar 109007 fresh dark-chocolate coated Biscotti and put another physical object into a cart.

Online, both of your products are simply bits and bytes andrepparttar 109008 shopping cart is complex software hosted on a remote web server somewhere off in cyberspace. So whether you'll be buying that shopping cart software and having it installed on your own web server or simply using an existing cart hosted on some other secure server, you will be using shopping cart software to sell your products or services online.

Hence,repparttar 109009 need for small business owners everywhere to know about shopping cart software andrepparttar 109010 reason Dr. Wilson wroterepparttar 109011 ebook. I was excited to readrepparttar 109012 definitive work, just released by Wilson this year as I was about to recommendrepparttar 109013 purchase of shopping cart software to a client, then install it for him. I had my opinions of what was available and was prepared to make some recommendations based on past experience.

Then I saw "The Shopping Cart Report" and, knowing that things change at-internet-speed online, I thought I'd reviewrepparttar 109014 NEW recommendations of others before committing my client to any one software or hosted service. Both my client and I are very glad that I made that choice!

It's certainly not scintillating reading, in fact, far from that, as you trudge through reviews of software entirely inappropriate to your needs, services unlikely to make sense to non-geeks and interviews with a shopping cart software company president that will leave you wondering why it helps you to hear from her. All of it leaves you kind of lost and bewildered, especially if you know little of CGI scripts and secure server certificates.

So why readrepparttar 109015 ebook? Because if you DO knowrepparttar 109016 basics of shopping cart software, payment gateways and online merchant accounts,repparttar 109017 ebook is a revelation! That revelation for me came while I sat scowling and scratching my forhead in confusion wondering, "When ya gonna get torepparttar 109018 one that's right for my client?" I was reading about Miva Merchant, a well respected software based on a database language that comes with open- source code, allowing customization and tweaking to your needs.

That revelation was simply this: No single shopping cart soft- ware is a one-size-fits-all solution. There are carts ranging from FREE to hundreds of thousands of dollars and they are all designed for very specific purposes, none of those purposes are likely to fit your needs precisely and none of them could or ever will. Shopping for a shopping cart is going to take you time, research, patience, more research and more time. Give in to that unhappy requirement and put inrepparttar 109019 time and energy.

Or explain your needs to your developer and trust them to solve them effectively for you. I don't recommend that unless you have money to burn -- unlikely for small business webmasters.
