I’ve been away awhile, busy on several projects. One of those has been an incredible learning experience for me in the form of eCommerce website solutions. I’ve been looking over the WP eCommerce Plugin for a few months now, and admittedly a bit hesitant to “take the plunge” and use it in a design. However, I quickly realized that when it comes to ease of use within a WordPress website, this would have to be the short answer! I’m so glad that I finally came to that conclusion!
With the help and guidance of Trevor Holewinski (of PokerPlasm.com fame), I’ve completed my first WP eCommerce site using the plugin. Would you like to see the results? Visit KStyle Studios, and check it out! This plugin will allow owner Karen Simpson the ability to upload and add products in the future without having to contact her webmaster. She’ll also be able to make simple changes (such as price, description, etc.) on her own.
I recommend paying the $25 for the gold upgrade to the plugin…for such a small fee you gain an incredible amount of flexibility in your cart: Multiple images/product views, more Payment Gateway Options, product search capabilities, (product) grid view, ability to sell digital products, advanced shipping methods, cross-selling, a coupon system, and more! I have to say this is one of the best WP plugins I’ve ever downloaded!

Thanks for informing me about the various ecommerce shopping carts out there.It has been very helpful to my research and here is what,I came up with over the past few days.
There are different types of ecommerce shopping cart available in the market for small as well as large businesses. Whatever business you are running, you must pick a top slot ecommerce shopping cart to boost up your online sale transactions.
The top ecommerce shopping cart for your online shop should be such that it is easily customized with your website. It must incorporate attractive design and shape to your webpages displaying the product range.
Ecommerce shopping cart provides complete business solution to all your online business websites. The main features of the top shopping carts include complete user control.
When a web designer or developer starts working on a website, he requires complete control over the whole process. So the whole process has to be user friendly. The software must be such that it is able to manage your site completely. The software must not give unnecessary problems to the user.
The software must be designed to be compatible to the changes. The designer must be able to include new innovations to his web pages. The layout design must be compatible to the site and the software must provide for these provisions. There should be a provision for products’ image uploads, change in prices, and inclusion of descriptive texts and many other things.
The most vital element that all top ecommerce shopping cart software should take note of is the security. When an online buyer wants to buy a product, he enters all his financial details in to the website. The softwares should be so designed that they provide complete protection to the buyers. The customer’s personal details should remain a secret at all times.
No third party should be able to access it.In this age and time of advanced technology, many changes are being incorporated into these ecommerce shopping carts. This helps in attracting more and more buyers to your website. Many sites are coming up with the well designed schemes to sell their shopping cart software.

Nola,
Thank you for recommending this plugin, it really is super easy to use. I know you do hand coding, do you do custom theme/views for this plugin as well?
Thanks again,

Excellent Job. Nola!
