E-commerce

What is E-commerce?

E-commerce, or electronic commerce, is the buying and selling of goods and services on the Internet. In order to have an e-commerce website, you need a system for displaying products and taking orders, the ability to accept payment information securely and a merchant account to process your credit card payments.

E-commerce Functionality

Globat web hosting packages come fully prepared for e-commerce use. With free shared SSL support on all accounts and a shopping cart system included with most plans, Globat has the resources you need to create an online store.

Shared SSL on All Accounts

We offer shared SSL (secure web space) for free with all of our web hosting accounts. Shared SSL means that your customers will be able to see the lock/padlock icon when using secure areas of your site, letting them know that it is safe to submit sensitive information to you, such as a credit card number.

The GX01™ package includes a ShopSite Starter shopping cart. For more advanced features and functionality, the GX19™ package comes standard with ShopSite Plus. ShopSite is a premier online store management system which allows you to list products, product options, accept credit cards and maintain a full e-commerce presence with your website.
