Any tips on Creating an E-commerce site?

[lartinos]

I'm about to get some quotes once I decide what I want it to look like. If there are any sites that catch your eye let me know. I obviously want to convert as many customers as possible. Funny websites that will just make me laugh are fine too .

Make sure you have a lot of content in the form of text, so that your site ranks well.

Make it as easy as possible for your customers to navigate the site and purchase your products.

Promote your site, both online AND offline.

Ensure that the product you are selling is well suited to an e-commerce venture. Meaning, it is easy to ship...blah blah blah..

Don't expect to make a million bucks right out of the gate. Give it time, and if the product is any good, it will sell.

Yeah the word spiritual sounds lame and spacey and junk but well, it's way better then religious. And one of the changes I'm making is to not get caught up on worrying if something I'm doing doesn't fit with my ego's idea of what's "lame" or "internally consistent" or whatever, so yeah.

"being lame" is reallly so subjective anyway.
I was watching "modify" on netflix the other day and there was so asshole who was all into body modification and tatoos and shit. He looked like an asshole. But he was saying how people who look at him with prejudgement are assholes. I wanted to yell at the monitor, "no YOU are the asshole!"
