I am not sure how many of you out there run your own website but I do know that it is a lot of work! We now have 2 websites, one for retail sales www.petelegance.com and one for our wholesale customers, www.petelegancewholesale.com . Both have different hosts. The first I built on my own through www.store.yahoo.com. Yahoo has an easy template to follow that includes a shopping cart. My only complaint is that the cart can not do multiple items and prices at once. For instance, I have a dog collar in 3 sizes, each a different price. It won't let me have one listing for that. I have to list each size and price separately. Pain! And looks cluttered. The "wholesale" site is through Network Solutions.
Network Solutions is able to do these shopping cart features. A very sophisticated site and still pretty easy to fill in the blanks. My complaint of this host is that their templates are quite boring. I do not have skills to design and build my own so I have to stick with what they offer if I want to stay on budget. But I will say that I feel proud I was able to even build these! It takes many hours of data input and photos and some design. Now I just need more hours of the day to keep updating them!
