I used GoDaddy, but do not use a shopping cart on the sight. I have just 5 pages on my sight and the last is a product page with a submission form at the end. My customers fill out the form and submit it. I then reply by email with the shipping options. I use USPS flat rate medium boxes for up to 3 qts or 2 half gal. I find 2 half gal in those boxes ship cheaper than I can ship a single gal. For larger orders (I have some customers who order 4 gal cases) and they ship by FedEx. I then send a PayPal invoice, they pay it then I ship.
If you go with a shopping cart you seem to need to work up shipping rates that are std. regardless of actual shipping costs, such as $X.XX for a gal, or a shipping cost based on product total of order. I choose not to go that route.
My Go Daddy price was under $100/yr adding the domain name, the sight, the sight builder and so forth when I got multiple years all at once.
That being said, if I had to do it over again, (and I will someday) it will not be thru Go Daddy. They make you use their tools and give little flexibility, they are essentially cookie cutter method.
Dave Klish, I recently bought a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
