SalesCart-X™:
Unix-Based FrontPage E-commerce
SalesCart-X, the first truly
100% configurable Unix/Linux based shopping cart for FrontPage. For quite some time, the largest limitation in FrontPage E-commerce has
been that only NT-based hosting providers could host Active Server
Page-based (ASP) shopping cart software. The only alternative available to Web site owners
hosting on Unix were service based shopping carts or accepting the
limitations of close-ended carts.
Service-based shopping
carts force designers to separate their E-commerce hosting from
the rest of their hosting and leave them at the mercy of yet another provider. The result is little or no
control over the checkout phase of the shopping cart or the credit card
processing service, limited ability to change the rest of the shopping
cart look and feel. Even when changes are permitted they are limited to
slow and tedious ones via a browser.
Why is Unix the majority platform for FrontPage
hosting? Eighty percent (80%) of all FrontPage
hosted Web sites are hosted on a Unix server and all major ISP's
and web hosting firms use UNIX as the preferred platform for Web
hosting. The largest Web hosting firm -- Verio, at one point, was
exclusively Unix. From an Internet Service Providers stand point, Unix hosting is less expensive and often more
reliable. SalesCart-X uses PHP and mySQL which is supported on the largest
majority of Unix Providers. This gives SalesCart-X owners the benefits of a mission-critical enterprise level
database -- mySQL at a fraction of the cost of Microsoft SQL. Unix
and mySQL can also be more scaleable than NT. The overall Unix platform has long been known for its
mission-critical characteristics, symmetrical and asymmetrical multi-processing and multi-machine
environments.
SalesCart-X brings the benefits of
stand-alone FrontPage E-commerce to those they want to use the power of
a UNIX-based server.

Is
this the perfect time to start an E-commerce business?
MSNBC asked the experts. We say,
"Don't wait until the Internet explodes again with over-enthusiasm,
and likewise, "competitors". If you have a great
idea and a great product, start now and build momentum into an expanding
market with positive economic change instead of visa versa after the
economy has once again overwhelmed itself.
