E-commerce and Hosting

intellix · 11 Feb 2008 at 23:06

Hi guys, i'm currently putting a web design site together and would like to know:

Do sites that offer e-commerce allow you to have as many shopping cart websites as possible? If me and my mate were to share hosting could we both have sites that use a shopping cart or is it basically one per account?

I'd like to be able to host many different shopping cart websites

I was looking at UK2.net as their shopping cart looks absolutely fantastic even if £99 is quite pricey. Would like to go half with my mate... dependent if you can do that or not.

Thanks!

get your self free cart like oscommerce (do google) .

There are few hosting companies that allow multi domain linked to 1 account which means you have public_html/shop1 public_html/shop2 each with their own URL

You can probably get away with it even if you just have one database by prefixing the tables differently for each site.
