Many friends have asked me to start his own online store requires a trade which programs? Generally speaking, first of all need to choose a good shopping cart program, popular with osCommerce system, Magento system, now even the system can be installed Joomla Virtuemart shopping cart called a plug. If you want to sell the few goods, then I recommend osCommerce system, easy to use, like receiving a lot of ways, for domestic sellers Paypal is essential in terms of collection methods, osCommerce paypal integrated within very easy to use payment method. For a wide variety of businesses for goods, Magento system is best for you, because it can set up for multiple different types of goods "shop", and its function is extremely powerful, and many well-known brands are using magento system. Members can log magento official website to look at. virtuemart should be regarded as a rising star, he and most powerful open source Joomla CMS system integration in the future should be promising and is likely to become strong competitors magento. Weakness is present virtuemart user interface is not very good and do not know the code for it have to purchase a template (Virtuemart Template) to make your store look like the point like.

The magento own user interface has been pretty good, of course, a number if you want a more professional, you can go buy a magento template.

In choosing a shopping cart program, the next step is to register domain names, and the purchase of server space. I recommend godaddy domain name registration service, the server of course, buy in a foreign country, after all, foreign trade Well. And so on after the expiry of these is the process of uploading and installed.

osCommerce and magento installation as long as the program uploaded to the server, your database set up in advance, and then enter the settings during the installation can be a good database of information. Installation of virtuemart joomla on need, as plug-in installed.

Thus, the take-away online shop preliminary work be done. After the product is added and the promotion of the site.

PHP is an interpreted scripting language. The process of running a PHP script includes a fewsteps - reading a script file from the hard drive, parsing and compiling bytecode, and finallyrunning that bytecode.Realpath cache configuration Optimization of file I/O is not only limited to using faster hard drives. It is also highlyrecommended to increase the default realpath_cache_size and realpath_cache_ttl values inphp.ini settings. Based on our tests the recommended values arerealpath_cache_size=32kandrealpath_cache_ttl=7200 on production servers.Bytecode cachingThe process of reading PHP scripts from disk and compiling them can be eliminated by enablingPHP accelerators.

Template design

Interface is a collection of themes that determines the visual output and frontend functionalities of your store. An interface can be assigned on either the website-level and/or store view-level through the admin panel (Learn how to assign an interface to the website/store).
If you assign an interface in the website-level, all your stores will inherit the interface of your website. You can further assign an interface in the store view-level and store-, effectively overriding that of the website. Say you operate four different stores under a website called “John's Panacea” - By studying the effects of each method as shown below, you can easily determine the method to employ for the design needs of your business.
Website-level declaration
If you want to create a unifying look and feel for all four stores, you will assign an interface in the website level, in which case all four stores will inherit the interface of the website.
Store view-level declaration
If you want to incorporate a separate look and feel per store, you can assign an interface per store-view, in which case the four stores will each carry its own unique look and feel.
Themes
A theme is any combination of layout, osCommerce template, locale and/or skin file(s) that create the visual experience of your store. Magento is built with the capacity to load multiple themes at once, therefore distinguishes themes into two large types:

Design Guide

You have heard about the unbelievable open-source features Magento theme offers right out the box.You spare no time seeing it in action, have oo-ed and aah-ed over it all - over and over again.

...And now you want to make it all your own. You've got your PSDs ready and the zeal to build and integrate. So what's next—Where do you begin?

Designer's Guide to osCommerce Templates has been prepared for you to learn and expand your knowledge of the structural, conceptual workings and methods of designing for Magento—It will basically teach you what you need to know to begin creating a theme of your own with Magento. This said, due to the sheer extent of flexibility that Magento's features offer, it is not possible to document all the different ways in which it can be customized for use. For help with this, you can consult Magento's community forums and wiki where real-life people with real-life experiences will be able to point you in the right direction. Also, remember that Magento is an application constantly in development, therefore despite our greatest efforts this documentation may not faithfully reflect the release version you are currently working with.

This documentation is largely sectioned into four chapters and can be skipped through back and forth in order to quickly access only the information you need most. However, because each chapter acts as a prelude to the next, we advise you to follow along with the documentation in the order it was written.
