What to sell online
Many of our customers ask “What type of products sell online” most types of products sell online and it really comes down to how much time and effort you are willing to put into your website. If you take two different websites selling the exactly same products and one of those websites is much more successful than the other it is mostly likely the successful website owner spends much more time updating, editing, adding products and marketing their website. You can’t just build an online shop and forget about it. An online shop is just like any other business, it requires a lot of hard work and time to grow.
Choosing a domain name
Choosing a domain name for your website is one of the most important steps in creating your new website. Your domain name (www.yourshop.com.au) needs to be simple and easy for people to remember. When ordering Ozcart you will be able to register a new domain or use an existing domain you already own. You can also choose to setup your shop on our default domain (yourshop.ozcart.com) – this is a great option if you don’t want to register or use an existing domain.
How to order Ozcart

Once we receive your order, we will contact you with your store login details so you can start adding products and making configuration changes, and more. Your new website will automatically be setup for GST in Australia, and can be easily changed to other tax systems and any other country specifics. Order Ozcart online.
Customizing Ozcart
You need a look and feel that really reflects your business and helps you stand out from your competitors – otherwise you run the risk of “clickaway”. Customers expect to be impressed by your site, products, service, and navigation. If you let them down, they won’t come back. There are too many competitors nowadays to be complacent. Contact us to get a custom design that reflects your business and fits your budget.
