I’m fairly familiar with OS Commerce and a few other similar carts. However I’m looking for the easiest most cost effective way to get a site online and selling.
A few details
We will be selling physical goods.
We will be operating multiple sites in multiple niches.
Search engine friendly URLs are important to me.
Ease of uploading product is important.
Multiple design templates are important.
We will be operating both wholesale and retail site so the ability to have the customer purchase via cc, check and/or purchase order (Net Terms) is very important.
I think I would prefer a hosted solution for now.
This would allow me to put my efforts toward marketing etc rather than worrying about in depth design, security, payment processing etc.
I know I would grow out of this, however IMHO in will be the quickest easiest way to get started. Also, it will allow more time to research the long term solution and get what I really want long term while still having a store in the short term.
