Shopping Carts, Why and How?

HostGator hosting plans allow you to create your own e-commerce site to sell your products and services online.

Note: If you intend to process credit cards on your site, we recommend our Business plan. The Business plan includes a free SSL certificate for secure transactions in addition to Free SEO Tools to aid you in driving traffic to your online e-commerce store.

A fully functioning store will also require signing up for and incorporating a payment gateway and/or a merchant account to process credit card transactions in addition to an SSL certificate which will secure the information being processed.
