Fuer $180 pro Jahr ("Advanced Hosting") bekommen Sie ODBC-Datenquellen, ASP/.NET, aktuelle Statistiken, SSL Seiten (verschluesselte Verbindung), und mehr.

Pre-installierte Komponenten sind z.B. ASPMail (mail verschicken), ASPQMail (ASPMail mit "built-in queuing"), ASPupload (lade Dateien auf die Webseite durch den Browser - ohne FTP programm), ASPImage (Grafikverarbeitung), ASPEncrypt (Seiten-Verschluesselung), ASPEmail, ASPHTTP (kombiniere mehrere Seiten in eine einzige), und das DynuCOM Paket.

Als ein Beispiel, sehen Sie unser Project Scripts-and-Coverage.com an. Es enthaelt Seiten fuer registrierte Benutzer; Hochladen von .pdf Dateien und Grafiken; automatische Vergroesserung/ Verkleinerung von Grafiken zu "thumbnails," automatische Verarbeitung von Kreditkarten bei der Registrierung und beim Kauf von Online-Lizenzen, und mehr.

Online-Handel

We used to recommend a variety of e-commerce solutions. But a few months ago, we found the flat-out best deal: Candypress.com.

Yes they have a strange name – but this e-commerce solution is outstanding. Fully customizable, scalable to large SQL Server or MySQL databases, and as a fellow programmer, we've looked at the code and found that it is very clean and well-written. This e-commerce solution is easy to administer even for store owners who don't know much about computers. Amazingly, this product costs only $40.

Before Candypress, we used to recommend StoreFront.net®. A few years ago, they were among the best (and most customizable) solutions, but their newest product (based on .NET) is going through growing pains right now and doesn't feature the source code (unless you pay in excess of $1000). Their previous product, storefront.net 5.0, is comparable to Candypress (with a much higher price tag), but their code is not as clean, and it can be tricky to customize. We still do modification on storefront.net solutions for our clients, and if you run storefront.net 5.0 and need customization, we can provide that service for you. But we also recommend looking into switching to Candypress.(We are not affiliated with Candypress, but make this recommendation solely on the basis of our experience with other products.)

Some other solutions we used to recommend

Yahoo® Stores are a classic choice for many online merchants. A very simple, easy-to-use solution that accomodates even larger product lines. The built-in marketing — being featured in Yahoo®'s marketplace — often outweighs higher monthly costs. We'll help you customize your Yahoo® Store to give it a sleek design beyond the basic templates.
Update: We don't recommend Yahoostores anymore, even though they've done some improvements lately, esp. in the ease of use for modifying templates, and we still offer to customize RTML templates for clients who are more comfortable with their existing solution.

However, for all others, we recommend to switch. Reasons:

Nowadays, there is no need to be stuck with high monthly and transaction fees. Yahoo store fees can quickly add up, especially if you have a large product palette. Consider owning your own e-commerce solution – it's like buying a bicycle for $200 instead of leasing it for $50 per month.

Being in the Yahoo Marketplace is an advantage – but there are better alternatives. E.g. buy search phrases on overture.com and get listed on top of the Yahoo search results. Buy Adwords on Google and increase your traffic from the biggest, most widely used search engines.

Switching e-commerce solutions can seem daunting, especially if you've just spent months to get fully acquainted with the Yahoostore system. But using a different system is actually much easier. Here's an offer: send us sample data from your catalog, and up upload it to a Candypress store for free and send you a couple of links, where you can administer the data online. You'll see that the interface is more modern and intuitive.

We used to recommend BigStep®, too. They are a very easy-to-use e-commerce solution – even someone with very little knowledge can set up their own store. However, their solution is not very scalable, and their fees have increased dramatically, and are not transparent in their advertising. Only when you start building your site, you learn you have to pay extra for even such a basic thing as adding a catalog (!), switching to a customizable format, and adding credit card processing.

The above are only recommendations, and represent our own, subjective opinion. We are happy to help you with any e-commerce solution you choose! For example, if you're only getting started with e-commerce, we can help you get set up with a simple online catalog and check-out page using AmeriCart, Mal's E-commerce, or another free/low-cost provider of your choice.

Use the Get a free web design quote page to contact us with your question. We can also help you get set up to accept credit cards online (with little or no setup fees) for automatic order processing. It's not difficult and we're happy to share our knowledge with you.
