Hello Friend! I am almost there. Are you going with me? If you are sure, then paddle along with me

Web hosting is a very important step in this process, as this is how you gain a presence on the internet in the first place.

It is important that the web hosting company is capable of providing you with the level of service that you need to maintain your Web Store. A few things to look for are:

Good uptime
Good technical support
Fast connection to the Net
Staff that is knowledgable about eCommerce
Compatibility with major eCommerce providers

It is always good to spend some time when choosing a web hosting company, as there are many 'fly-by-night' businesses out there. For the money you're spending, make sure that the company is reputable.

A digital certificate, also known as a SSL Server Certificate, enables SSL (Secure Socket Layer encryption) on the web server. SSL protects communications so you can take credit card orders securely and ensure that hackers cannot eavesdrop on you. Any eCommerce company will require you to have SSL before you can use their services.

Thankfully, for most people obtaining a digital certificate is not a problem. For a minimal fee, one can usually use the certificate owned by the web hosting company where your page resides.

If you are a larger company, however, you may want to get your own digital certificate. A certificate costs about $125.00 and can be obtained from Thawte or Verisign.
