19. Web Hosting RECOMMENDATIONS So in case you think your are planning to launch a mega store with huge product range and planning to do an extensive sales, marketing and branding processes over the same we will recommend you a Dedicated Hosting Plan . While in case you think you are opening is a cute small shop for some custom or limited products and think you don’t want to spend too much on the hosting cost of the site then I will recommend you a Shared Hosting Plan . Note : Performance of your website depends a lot on the server hardware and resources, you may start small but as the traffic increases ( no of visitors ) we will recommend you to shift from a shared hosting plan to a dedicated one. http://www.retaxis.com

20. Payment Processor What you need to know ? Ok now you got your web store software and web hosting in place, you have added your inventory to your store too and it looks fabulous but how do I accept payments online ? Yes the right word is “Accept Payments Online” which empowers the complete ecommerce industry and there are various providers available in the market to choose from : Payment processors online charge a fixed setup fee, a per transaction TDR (per transaction cost for validating credit card transactions) and a yearly maintenance cost. All the transactions are done on a 128 bit secure SSL connection without your need to store customer credit card details on your server. http://www.retaxis.com
