My grandad has his own business selling fire surrounds and fires. He has no online presence - I was wondering what the best platform would be for myself to use? I know basic XHTML/CSS but have no knowledge of PHP etc.
I can design well in PSD if this matters? (probably not… :p)
He will need to sell around 50 different products. Any free solutions with a large selection of paid premium themes?
If you want to make your own PSD website design, there are many companies on the web which will charge a small fee to convert the PSD in to functioning XHTML/HTML/CSS web templates for you to use. Or you could get a free or buy a low cost premium website template design to use for your website.
If you don’t have the technical skills to do the store related parts such as PHP/Database etc. you could try using an ecommerce plugin solution to give you an online store and checkout process. This type of solution allows you to copy and paste auto-generated code in to your web page template, things like Add to Cart, Checkout buttons etc. It is a quick way to add professional looking, feature rich interactive store capabilities without having any coding skills or ongoing maintenance of the software.
