1&1 My Website

The most quality and economical solution I've found for an e-commerce site is to find a contractor from www.oesk.com. I've had custom webstores built from $100-$150. You'll be amazed at the talent you can find overseas and how cheap it is.

Most designers from the philippines or india will charge $2-$5 an hour, or charge $50-$200 for a custom website.

Magento is a free CMS, like Wordpress, but it takes forever to load the website because of excessive scripting. Wordpress and Joomla have great ecommerce abilities.

The shopping cart is one of the most important parts to having a smooth e-commerce transition. Elements that are critical to a shopping cart should be, website wizards, Merchant tools, Shopping features, payment options, shipping and taxes configurations, statistics, and security. A truly great shopping cart is considered an E-commerce solution.

Building an e-commerce website starts with a firm understanding of who the end user will be. The latest buzz word in the web development world is UX or user experience.  This concept isn't all that new but companies are now starting to take the user's experience online very seriously and are building websites and applications that meet exact needs not what upper management believes are the user's needs.

If you are just starting out in e-commerce I would recommend working with one of the top, hosted e-commerce providers like Shopify orBigcommerce.  While you will be paying a monthly fee along with a percentage of each sale, Shopify and other providers will handle all of the payment processing, provide very well designed store templates and stay on top of things like PCI Compliance and security allowing you to focus on selling your products or services.

Hopefully you will outgrow a hosted solution and will be in the position to hire a firm to build out a customized e-commerce solution, exactly tailored to your customers' needs.

Here are two hosted providers that I would recommend anyone check out when planning to build an e-commerce site.  Both will offer a free trial so you can setup a store and see how things work prior to any committment.

Shopify

Bigcommerce

You may want to look up Themeforest. Web Designers and Developers are pretty expensive. Actually my business website was built using a template from that website. Here's an example of an eCommerce template: Click here, all you need to do is to customize it. You can browse around the website depending on your needs (e.g restaurant template, law firm etc.).

For creating E-commerce site then you have to understand what the visitors want. E-commerce site must have the shopping cart facility. Moreover you have to give them assured that users is buying from your site is convenient and safe things. You can do this creating the site with high quality.
