Most on here get my one site deal for $ 53.88 a year. You can get it for less by quarter or month, but you pay more per month.
I really do install the ZenCart free. Not the way you've starrted, but through Fantastico.
That's all I do. I can go further, but 99% of the rest of the setup is clicking and filling in fields and I've got to ask you how you want it and then you tell me and I click the fields. Save $ 50 and just fill in the fields yourself. It takes just as long to answer my questions as it deos to do it yourself.
Same with inventory. If you have a few items, you can just add them as you go. If you have hundreds, or more, you can lay everything out in a spreadsheet and import into Zen in one fell swoop. (What's a fell swoop, anyhow?)
Same with images, they can all be uploaded at once.
So, $ 53.88 does it all, and you're paid for a year, unless you want me to do the actual loading of the cart, then it's $ 50 for the setup and another $ 50 or more for the inventory and images. again, I suggest you do those yourself. It's going to be your store, and just like the shopkeeper who knows every nook and cranny of their shop, you should know all about your online shop. And, as I said, you've got to put together all of the info anyhow, why not just enter it directly?
What I don't do is design. What little taste I have is in my mouth (and voluptous women). There are many existing templates available from free to in the $ 100 range and you can also get a truly custom design, as well. (Although I feel many of the "custom" are still variations of existing designs.) Usually the designers will install the template for you. If not, I'll be glad to help you out there.
So, there's my pitch. You may very well hear from others with other offers. Don't feel you have to use me, there is plenty of work to go around and I'm the first to admit I suck at design work. (My own sites show it, I use virtually nothing but free templates.)
