Can someone please educate me on the steps of creating e-commerce (online store) for my website?
My boss has a great website for jewelry, but she is ready to make her pieces available to purchase online.
Problem is, we are clueless as to how to start this…
can someone PLEASE give me the basic steps on how we go about making an online store for our website?
It would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.!

1. Be understanding enough to know that the site will go through a growth change. So have one that is editable your end.
2. Editable is one you won’t have to learn and applications like email you already use.
3. Use paypal and won’t have to buy SSL
4. Remember you site should have specials
5. Do to your product line, going to be very competitive, meaning your marketing should consist of SEO but rather PPC on a very demographic budget
