1. Select your domain name. If you do not already have one, we can register it for you in your name for $12.00 a year. You can also register it yourself at GoDaddy.com.
2. Order your web hosting. Web hosting is how your site will be visible live to your visitors. We also offer web hosting at $12.95 a month or get discounts when paying in advance, $36.91 quarterly, $69.93 semi-annually or $132.09 yearly. We have been hosting sites online for years, with a 99.9% uptime rate. Your hosted site is safe with us - just like our very own.
3. Order your DIY Shoppe Designer Cart. There is a one-time license fee of $115.00 for the Deluxe Cart. Why? We could just raise our monthly hosting fees like others to cover the license fee over time and make more, but we believe you should own your own shopping cart and not just "rent" it from us like others do. Think of the amount you would spend over years of "renting" and still never own your cart. You've worked hard building your business and your web site. Obviously you should own it too.
4. Go to http://mals-e.com and setup your free third party cart for integration with our cart on settings for payments, shipping, tax, gift certificates, coupons, affiliates and more. If you need assistance with these settings, email us and we will assist you.
The DIY Shoppe Designer Cart requires PHP 4+, 1 mySQL, phpMyAdmin, which is included in your hosting plan with us and it requires a free Mals-E account.
* The DIY Shoppe Designer Cart works seamlessly with Mals and it is required. Mals uses Paypal for its merchant processor. If you want to accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, etc., please let us know and we will lead you in the right direction.
The cost for the DIY Shoppe Designer Deluxe Cart License is $115.00.
The license is a one time fee and requires our Standard Plan hosting account or higher due to the cart using 1 mySQL database which is included with that plan and up. Your hosting account also comes feature-packed with everything you need to create your business online and more.
Your DIY Shoppe Designer Cart will be installed within 24-48 hours excluding weekends and holidays.
