Best Shopping Carts

What is the Best Shopping Cart Software for Your Ecommerce Website?

April 29, 2009 by Pat Fortino

Should I Buy or Lease a Shopping Cart?

There are two basic models for online shopping carts:

  • Pay a one time fee for the software and install it on your web server: This can be a daunting task unless you are comfortable working with Linux web servers and configuring web-based software. The good thing about this model is that you don’t have to pay monthly fees, and the software is usually much more customizable than leased shopping carts. If you have the skills to install the software on your server, or if you hire a website designer to install and configure your shopping cart, this method is more economical than leasing.
    Note: WooCommerce, a WordPress-based shopping cart, if very easy to install if you already have a WordPress website.
  • Pay a monthly or yearly fee to lease the software: This model is easy to implement because you don’t need to install, configure, or maintain any software. If you are going to do it yourself and have little web experience, this is the easiest way to get started.The downside is that leased software is often hard to customize and many ecommerce sites need some customization. Furthermore, it can be very expensive when you add in the cost of leasing over many years.

    I am curious to find out what blog system you are utilizing?
    I’m having some minor security problems with my latest blog and I would like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any solutions?
