XCART Hosting XCART has been a popular inexpensive way for ecommerce websites to get up and running. Lately there seem to be many ecommerce sites going through "growing pains" that xcart will not handle. I personally have nothing against xcart  I just wish they had tighter security on the software and did not charge so much for support that is generally out of the scope of most webmasters. I will help with xcart users who need support but I will also tell you there are better resources available for ecommerce. I am a Miva Business Partner and I can tell you with Miva your business can grow without suffering terrible software hacks and downtime. If you are an ecommerce business that is doing in excess of 100K per year (or you intend to) then you really should consider making the migration now. I have a migration plan that is fairly seamless and can be done right along side your current business with no loss of revenue or downtime. To discuss this feel free to e-mail or call.

There should be accountability between the webmaster and the client. Implementation should occur after extensive conversation about direction and goals. Software should be chosen by quality not price and support is key to any successful online business.
