JessXEmoji 46 Posted May 8, 2014 Next year I want to launch my own website to sell decals and tshirts. Does anyone know how much ill need to pay a website designer? I cant do what I want myself. Ill have at leat 1000 items along with drop down boxes for sizes and colors. Plus a shopping cart so they can check out with paypal or credit. Im thinking around $3k for a local person? Im taking this website serious so i think its worth the investment. Any of you guys done this before? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tooler82 182 Posted May 8, 2014 I used to design websites. When I did it it was easy and I wrote the code in notepad. Now there's a lot of different codes. Most hosting sites have an editor you can tackle it yourself. Yahoo Smallbusiness is cheap and has an easy to use editor. Think I pay $11 a month for the hosting.

JessXEmoji 46 Posted May 8, 2014 The 3k just came from a quick google search. I was hoping it would be less. I can add all my products i just need a site to work kind like a ebay store but i have all the control. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pshawny 410 Posted May 8, 2014 It's pretty easy and cheap to do it yourself these days. Then again, I guess I'm kind of a DIY control freak. Here are some of the things that I have used in the past. Hosting: Servage.net Shopping Cart Software: Open Cart - Servage has 1-click install, super easy & free CubeCart CS-Cart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
