Is E-Commerce Hosting really what I need?

Internet Ecommerce is the fastest growing sector on the web. 80% of all businesses do not have a website online. Many that do have sites online, do not utilize it for online sales and treat it as a brochure website.

Set your site apart from the crowd and setup an ECommerce Site. If you need Shopping Cart Software, our packages come with a free shopping cart (osCommerce) which can be installed with the click of a button. If you need a more powerful shopping cart such as X-Cart, you can purchase x-cart at a significant discount with your e-commerce hosting purchase.  Check out http://www.xcarthosting.com for more details.

This E-Commerce Hosting Package has all the features that one would need to operate a store online. Lots of disk space, impressive bandwidth and email addresses galore! As if the bandwidth and disk space wasn't enough, you also get your own dedicated IP address. A dedicated IP address is essential in ECommerce. It allows you to have your own SSL Certificate which will secure credit card transactions when clients purchase on your site.

There are hosting companies that offer SHARED SSL or CHAINED SSL, but save the headache and get a Dedicated SSL. There are many advantages to having your own Dedicated SSL Certificate:

  • Maintain the same URL - By eliminating users from using a common generic URL you keep the visitor focused on purchasing your products and not figuring out who http://secure.webhostingprovider.com/~xsded/xcart is. A shared SSL will looks similar to this. With a dedicated SSL your users get transported from http://www.domain.com to https://www.domain.com - this helps eliminate doubts they may have about your company.
  • Allow for more than just your store - Sometimes a helpdesk, or a secondary ordering location for resellers is necessary.
  • Works with most eCommerce software - Most online store software are designed to work seamlessly with sites utilizing digital SSL certificates rather than ones which employ a Shared SSL strategy.

It's easy to see why you should have a Dedicated SSL Certificate for your site, and Hands-on Web Hosting helps by keeping these certificates affordable. Please see http://www.handsonssl.com for more information on pricing of Dedicated SSL Certificates.
