Hey Robin,

Thanks for the info. I'm sure anyone reading this will really appreciate the help. I know it will help us as well. Looks like you took some time going through it. It's too bad that they work so hard to put out a great tool, and don't make the documentation along the way. A great tool does nothing if no one can figure out how to make it work.

Thanks!

I read your article that included information on the new (beta) Amazon WebStore. I have a bit of news your readers can use.

The (beta) Amazon WebStore is the best option I can find for my online store, but the documentation is extremely confusing. When I realized I was going to have to figure out everything about the Amazon WebStore by myself, I just went ahead and wrote up what I learned in a helpful organized way, so that others wouldn’t have to suffer (I'm a writer). The “Tutorial Guide to the (beta) Amazon WebStore” is totally free. Your readers can download a 57-page pdf, or read the the Guide, at http://www.webstoreguide.info.

Hey Jim, Thanks for the comment. There are many platforms out there. Actually, way too many to be discussed in a single blog post. I am familiar with the Site Built It though. The platforms I chose I would consider just a few of the top. Site Built It is designed for business owners to create their own store and get traffic to it. I would personally not recommend it, but this would have to be something you would need to weigh out. Consider the costs, and also consider the time and effort you plan to put into it. With Yahoo!, you can design your own site, then come back later and have a professional web design company add new features, or give it a new look.

You can also look at other successful stores and see what tools they use to be successful. There are many INC 500 companies that use the Yahoo! platform. See if you can do some research on some competitors, and other online stores as to what they use. That may give you a better idea of what to choose.

If you would like to get more information on the pros and cons, you can contact me directly jwoertink_at_justprofessionals_dot_com

Hope that helps!

Hi Jeremy, I really appreciate all your help with the info on Yahoo Stores. I was wondering out of all the platfoms that you mention above I didn't see “Site Built It” or aka “Site Sell” was not mentioned. Any reason why? And I would like to have your opinion on this platform as I am strongly considering it. Actually I am caught between a rock and a hard spot between them and Yahoo Stores. Any help you can give will be most appreciated, and thank you so much for your time and consideration.
