Buy your domain name and sign up for a hosting service. This is the first step of developing any type of commercial website. Usually the companies that offer domain registration will also offer hosting services. GoDaddy and Yahoo! both offer domain name registration and hosting services for retail businesses. When you select your domain name make sure it is as simple as possible and that it works for your retail business. For example, if your company name is 'Bears and Dolls' then you will first want to see if www.bearsandolls.com is available. Other domain names that would work include www.bears-and-dolls.com and www.bears-and-dolls.net.
Select website design software for your retail website. Start with a basic website designing program like FrontPage. However, you can also utilize e-commerce templates. Template Monster offers a great selection of e-commerce templates that you can use when creating a new retail website. Finally, you will want to buy a shopping cart program. Volusion and 3D Cart offer some of the most respected shopping cart programs on the market.
Pull together a price list and a product description list that include all the items you plan on carrying on your retail website. You will be using both of these lists when setting up your retail website. For each item you want to host on your retail website you will need a clear color digital image. For more advanced websites you will want to include multiple photographs of each item, with special shots taken of important product details.
Use your website design software to create the basic layout of your new retail website. You will need to use the import image option to upload your product graphics to your website. Then use the text editing tools to name your products, assign them a product number and to enter a product description. Also make sure you assign each product a price.
Upload your shopping cart program to your hosting service. You will most likely need to set up a database of item numbers, prices and inventory. At this point you will also want to link your shopping cart program to your current merchant credit card account or to your Paypal account. This way, your customers will be able to make purchases online and the payments will be processed using these accounts.
Manage your retail website. To keep your retail website functional you will need to monitor orders, keep the inventory data up-to-date and you will need to add and modify text, graphics and supplemental information posted on your website periodically.

How to Calculate the Cost of a WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 13,
In Feburary 2016 13,
Select a website design service (if you do not intend to build the site yourself) and discuss your website needs and a price for the design. The more customization you desire, the higher the price will be. Make a note of the total cost of the site creation and ensure that the designer includes in the price a couple of weeks or months for tweaking and correction. If you want to design your own website, skip this step.
Select website design software, and make a note of the price. Website design software ranges in price from hundreds of dollars for software used mainly by skilled designers to very low-cost software, used mainly by amateurs or beginners. You might be able to find free website design software that suits your purposes if you want a basic, information-only website.
Determine whether you will use a pre-built template for your website or design your site from scratch. Some website building software comes with free templates. Other software offers more elaborate templates for a fee. Once you select your design software, check the availability of templates and determine a price for a template, if you want to use one.
Select royalty-free art for your website, if you want custom artwork. If you're designing your website from scratch, you need artwork to make it more attractive. Because most business people are not graphic artists, purchasing royalty-free artwork is the best option for a custom website look. Record the price of all the art you want for your website.
Website Hosting and Maintenance
Choose a name for your website and determine the price of registering the name. Many online services offer domain names for sale and have query systems that allow you to select a name that is not currently in use and offer you pricing for the name. Many domain name registry services offer discounts for registration longer than one year.
Determine the cost of website hosting. Many companies offer website hosting at varying prices and services included in the price. Choose a company that is reliable and meets the needs regarding the size of your website. Do not choose a company that barely can handle your business needs now, because if you continue to grow, you will have to move your site. Hosting can be purchased monthly or sometimes paid in advance at a discounted rate.
Determine the cost of maintenance. If you designed your own website, then maintenance might include the purchase of additional artwork as your business grows. If you hired a web designer who makes all updates and changes to your website, then add the yearly fee for maintenance to your list, if the designer charges a one-time fee. If your web designer charges by the update, estimate the number of updates or changes you will require during a year and add that cost to your list.
Add all of the individual costs to determine a total estimated cost for the building, launch and maintenance of your website.
