Opening an online business?

I currently have a store on "The worlds online market place" but want to expand. Sales are decent. I have merchandise to sell. Have the local business license and state tax id. What site offers the best package concerning price, fee's, help, tools and ease? Also, any suggestions would be grateful to help a small business grow.

Yahoo Small Business has a pretty good ecommerce package and you can design your site with sitebuilder, which is pretty easy to use. The monthly fees are reasonable.

The bigger question....right now you are getting free advertising, expansion means you will need to get traffic to your site. Have you thought about how you are going to do this? "Build it and they will come" doesn't apply to websites. There are alot of tools both free and paid that can increase traffic to your site, but you need to do your research. It will take time get enough traffic to make money.

Gosh! What a coincidence! I just came across a blog that explains it in detail, for free of course. The results are impressive.

The auther of the blog even details scammers in the same line of business and how to find them. Then he shares a website that you can access thru his that is awesome! It is actually not only backed by the Better Business Bureau Online, but it is even recommended highly by the BBBonline. Check it out and share the info with friends and associates. I wouldn't let this blog go unnoticed now that I've read it. I'm recommending it to my family and friends.
