I like the feature-richness of 1shoppingcart, and find it to be recommended by virtually everyone. I also agree, though that the newbie should start with PayPal.

I’m familiar with aspdotnetstorefront and comersus only because they’re ASP.NET. But for a noob I would go with Yahoo Merchant Services. It’s definitely a lot easier.

Hi Dan,

You make some good points about shopping carts above. However by the the time a newbie develops a site or blog that truly needs a shopping cart I’m thinking they would be beyond the newbie stage.

Maybe a better article for the true newbie might be one on how to setup a PayPal account and “Buy Now” button, or maybe you already have one.

Just my two cents worth.

I’ve been using 1ShoppingCart for exactly the reason you cited, Dan. It’s an easy-to-set-up, hosted solution that has pretty decent customer support.

Once I’ve gotten through the major development effort for my online offerings, I sure I’ll be looking around to see which solution(s) are the best ones for my situation.

Regards,

Ron
