WebsiteCreator is a simple-to-use content management tool which offers
many template choices and a short, step-by-step design process. Best of
all, no HTML skills are required to build and maintain a professional
looking website.
With
WebsiteCreator, you can add an online shopping cart to your site. The
shopping cart which comes with WebsiteCreator can have up to 500
products. It is not integrated with any Credit Card Payment Gateway.
Nevertheless, it provides various payment methods - PayPal, Prepayment,
or Pay on Delivery. Please have in mind that the shopping cart feature
is included with the WebsiteCreator eCommerce service plan only. If you
are not currently using the eCommerce version of WebsiteCreator, here
is how you can upgrade your service plan:
Note:
With Aplus.Net’s eCommerce Unix hosting
plan, you can build an online store with unlimited number of products.

plan is the
world class MIVA Merchant. Aplus.Net offers its own Credit Card Payment
Gateway which is integrated into the MIVA Merchant shopping cart:
