Every business that strives to be a success needs a web presence. Getting your web presence and turning it into an ecommerce enabled business web site requires a business focused web site design - not a fancy site full of slow loading graphics that wins a designers award!
If you've ever tried to design your own web page, you know just how much work is involved. You need to select fonts, learn cascading style sheets, test it on multiple web browsers, fiddle with graphics, tweak the layout and, as a business person, you don't have the time. If you're a small business person, you probably don't have the couple of grand lying around in liquid cash to hire someone to do it for you either, which leaves you with a conundrum.
What you need is something that allows you to go, step by step, point by point, click by click, through designing the web site that you want, with plenty of options for customization. Preferably, you want a process designed by someone who actually sells things over the internet, as opposed to makes "static web presence pages", or "online brochures" for companies and church groups.

Through many years of experience as an online entrepreneur and website creator, I've found a "point and click" solution that is pretty much what the doctor (or marketing department) ordered. It's simple enough for beginners and gives lots of step by step instructions and options, with the reasoning behind the choices explained in simple, clear English. It explains why you want to pick certain color schemes (such as ones that trigger people to buy) and why to avoid certain failings in web site designs (like font choices that make the page harder to read) and plenty of customization options to help pull your web site out of the clutter of run-of-the-mill business related web sites. Regardless of your experience with 'design own web pages', my recommendation below gives you a rich palette of options to work from.
