this is a great site. thanks for all your work, "Work It, Mom!"

Hi! I can recommend a few hosting companies, Pappashop is who I use, they are $12.95 a month that includes a free shopping cart, but if you do not sell from your website they have I think $4.95 hosting http://www.pappashop.com & I design websites, if anyone needs help with a design I would love to help, just contact me, I can offer great Workitmom discounts! http://www.shabbylaneshops.com
Even if you do not need a design please contact me if you have any questions! I would love to help!

I have two websites:
www.kaleidoscopecardsandcrafts.com - I hired Ryan Moeck (www.ryanmoeck.com) to design this site and I think he did a fantastic job. The shopping cart is powered by ZenCart (www.zencart.com) which is free, and after you get the hang of it pretty easy to use.
www.virtuinteriors.com - I honestly just set this site up this morning using a template on godaddy.com. At some point I'll be hiring Ryan to do this site as well.Flag as inappropriate Posted by Virtu on 18th September 2008 -
Thanks for some insight. I am a commercial real estate broker and have a website now (www.dixoncp.com) but want to be able to manage content myself, but not spend too much time learning script, Its not what I do!
I am currently using Network Solutions for webhosting and am not in love with it, but it does what it needs to do...Flag as inappropriate Posted by Renee on 23rd September 2008 -
I use Yahoo's Sitebuilder and it's fantastic. I was really surprised how easy it was to build a shopping site. I have a Yahoo merchant account which is $39/month (Sitebuilder is free - you can download it at the small business site of Yahoo), and I have to say, I've never been more satisfied with ease of use, functionality and customer support. Whenever I had a question, I called, a person answered and so far has always been able to help me (I think they're open 24/7). I did my site all by myself (oh, I sound like my 4 year old...) - check it out: www.creativetoyshop.comFlag as inappropriate Posted by Martina@Creativetoyshop.com on 27th September 2008 -
I have just build my site (www.icon-home.com) using Yahoo site builder. I subscribe for small business site that cost only US$ 26 for first 3 months. I have to say that building site using this tools is easy. The difficult thing for me is not design the site ( since there are a lot template offer) but making the content and material to put in your site. I need 2 weeks to build my site from scracth, and most time I spend to take picture of my products and make product descriptions.Flag as inappropriate Posted by happymom on 8th October 2008
