Introduction

Anyone looking to quickly and easily set up an online store will likely look at ecommerce templates as an option. Setting up an ecommerce site can require a good deal of work, programming, and security measures, but using a ready-made, customizable template can save time, effort, and money, all of which can be spent on marketing and advertising to help your site quickly achieve success and notoriety. Getting a site ready to accept credit cards is a major undertaking, so the less work you can avoid, and the more you can have done by someone else, the better. Using ecommerce templates allow users to merely customize them to fit into the company's color scheme and style, and add the products and info, and the site is almost ready to go.

Costs and Skills Required

Even though ecommerce templates can save time, some advanced skills are still needed. Understanding at least the basics of website design, HTML, and some design programs like Dreamweaver, Frontpage, and perhaps even Photoshop will help make installation easier. Turnkey ecommerce sites can be purchased from about $100 and up, and unique sites for several times that much.
