Not sure how your going to take online payments Karl but i helped to set up our online payment system for work we use protyx. Mind you that was a couple of years ago things move so fast in cyberworld its probably outdated now but give us a shout if you want any more info. Oh also have a look you might be able to get a grant towards a new website we did for our latest one at work.

I've set up a few of these sites. Used to do it all manually but it's a pain in the ****. A couple years ago I started using a new website builder called DotNetNuke. It's all modular. Set up your template, add shopping modules, and you're set. Ok, it's a little more complicated than that, but much easier than the manual route.
You might also look at setting up a Yahoo or eBay store. They've already done all the work.Steve

I'd certainly recomend an Ebay Store, apart from anything else, customers feel "safe" as they've got the weight of Ebay and PayPal behind them if there are any problems - as do you if you get a nuisance customer, and believe me, Ebay customers can be REAL numpties!HRH Her Lushness

The other plus side of Ebay is that often customers who know that you stock regular supplies of things that they re-order, will often contact you direct for a "deal" which then means you save on Ebay fees and they can save in the future by being directed to your proper website.
I do this with a few Ebay HB suppliers as I find it easier to send an email asking for what I want and what will the total price be rather than having to trawl thro' Ebay.
And jolly good luck mate, I hope it all works out for you.HRH Her Lushness

I just had a look, and it looks fine, I'm glad to see that you've already got some feedbacks - there's nothing like no feedback to put off potential buyers, and as bad luck would have it, I needed some tartaric last week, (amongst other things that could have waited) so made up an excuse to go to Lincoln to get some.
I could have got it from you instead... DOH!HRH Her Lushness

Glad you didn't buy it, or my store would have been empty, and it was the only fully sealed tub I had, incase someone did buy it.
Besides a certain hbs would not forgive me for stealing his saleLast edited by Duffbeer; 26-02-2009, 10:34 AM.Discount Home Brew Supplies
