starting a new e-commerce webpage

STARTING A NEW E-COMMERCE WEBPAGE
A home based business usually uses the web for its business communication.when starting a website for its business,it has the options of choosing from a personal webpage,business webpage or a commercial website.businesses may be small,medium or small to medium and accordingly their transaction requirements are less or more.

For starting a new e-commerce website choosing the host is the first step towards building the website.next comes making the webpages for the site.the pages are purchase,orders,customers,sales,payments and the shopping cart which has the products display.since this is virtual shopping,the customers choose the products from the images and the product descriptions.when the product has been sold on the webpage,the dropshippers physically send the available products from the warehouse to the customers at their locations.

When setting up the shopping cart,choosing the products for selling is the initial step for the small business.by selling eproducts for downloads the small business avoids the physical sending of products to the customer locations.by selling virtual products the small home business does the selling from the website online and the products are available where they are displayed rather than being images for products which are to be physically sold.
