You can work with an older computer and still get a great site. If you're using Windows 95 on your 486 from 1997, you can still use this builder to create a website. (Other builders require more modern equipment.)

You decide whether to call your page “Catalog” or “What I Sell.” You're not limited by standard template choices like on some other builders.

Format the title to suit your page with different fonts, font sizes and even font colors.

When you add a page you'll see different image layouts. Choose a layout with one image, three images, or as many images as you want.

Just a click of your mouse changes your layout. You can change the text from a single column to wrapping around a picture. You decide, and you can change as often as you like.

Let your customers talk to each other about what they like about your website and how they use your products.

Use the Message Board feature to allow your customers to sign in, ask questions, and leave comments for your other customers and guests.

You decide the order you want for the pages in your website. You can change pages or move them around at any time.

Hide pages so no one can access them without having to delete them.

You don't have to put up a “Site Under Construction” page when you're working on your site. Just “hide” the page while you're working on it (even if you leave it for a few days to think about it). Visitors can see the rest of your site, just not the hidden pages. That way, your site's never down just because you're updating it.

Give special customers or high-level members the added bonus of viewing “secret” pages on your website.

Any page can be named and renamed as many times as you like. You are never stuck with a mistake.

You can delete old pages and add new pages as often as you want to keep your website up-to-date and fresh-looking.

If you add a page to the wrong place, you can easily move it to the right place. You never have to delete a page and start again to move it to the right place.

Make a “Members Only” or “Employees Only” section on your website. Only the people you give the password to can see what's on password protected pages. Great for staff schedules or meeting minutes.

You can display as many as 500 different products in your catalog, with photos, detailed descriptions, product options, and price information.

Let your customers choose different options – size, color – for each product on your site.

Let your customers select from the available options like color – red, blue, green; size – x-small, small, medium, large, x-large, xx-large, etc.

You can add special options with message boxes in case you are selling things that need to be customized or personalized (e.g. trophies, T-shirts, business cards, etc.).

You can take photos of the products you make, or if you resell, set up photos of your products being used in an attractive setting.

Never lose a customer who doesn't want to wait for your pages to load. Photos load quickly in a small format. When customers want to take a closer look, they just click the image and get a full-sized view.

You can insert 3 photos or other images for each of your products. Great for T-shirts where the back has a different message from the front, or detailed pieces like candlesticks or statues.

You don't have to worry about downloads or add-ons or installing new features. The shopping cart has been programmed seamlessly into your website. You don't have to use it, or display it, but when you want to turn it on it's just a mouse click away.

Display your products they way they look best and the way that makes the most sense.

You can add new items to your catalog without having to start from scratch every time. Your business website grows with you, always meeting your needs.

The easy edit feature lets you change the description to make things sell better, or if the description changes. You can change the price, the color options, or anything else in the catalog entry for the product.

Easily change product prices and indicate in large, red text in the description or title which of your products are on sale. Great for special occasions or when you need to dump extra inventory.

You have the option of setting the store to “Closed” if ever you go on vacation, or run out of stock, or for any reason don't want to take orders, but do want to keep your website running.

If you run out of something you usually sell, but you know you'll have it again soon, you can keep it listed in your catalog marked “Out of Stock.” That way customers know you usually carry it – you just don't have it right now.

Easily upload ebooks, software, your own audio files, or any other downloadable item you want to sell. The advantage of selling downloads is that you can automate the entire system – set up the website to take orders, process payments, and deliver downloads on command.

You can use the catalog on your website like a traditional catalog if you choose, with a printable order form that customers can print, fill out, and mail or fax back to you. Even if you do sell online, it's a great option if some of your customers still prefer to do things the old-fashioned way.

Tell people on your website exactly where you will ship to. You can restrict sales within your state, or around the country, or internationally. If you're ready to launch an export business, this is a way to start.

We've partnered with a merchant account, a credit card processing center, and even PayPal to make it easy for your customers to buy from you, and for you to receive their payment. It's all built in and easy to set up. Your initial merchant ID set-up fees are even included in the price of your website if you use our partner – that's an over $400 value.

If for whatever reason you don't want to automate the purchase process, you can still set up your website to accept payment information online, but process it by hand.

Your website is protected with 128-bit Verisign security certificates. You never have to worry about your security certificates being out of date. We look after it all for you.

You can set up the credit card processing feature on your website to cross check the credit card number with the zip code or other key pieces of information to make sure your customer isn't using a fake credit card, or “phishing” you.

One of the main concerns people have with ordering online is “sending their information out onto the Internet somewhere.” Automatically, the autoresponder feature will send out an automatically when someone places an order to let them know that their order has been received.

QuickStoreBuilder - through its parent company WebsiteDynamics - will host your website using enterprise class equipment and dedicated server facilities. It's a fact of life that equipment can fail at any time, but your website will be protected with backups, redundant equipment, and alternate power supplies (to name just a few safety measures) guaranteeing over 99% uptime.

Some web hosts are actually university kids who've set up your website on a computer in the basement. We use only “Enterprise Class” (top-of-the-line) servers to host your website to ensure more than 99% uptime.

Over a dozen systems protect your website from downtime and security breach.

Your customers will never see problems with your website if a server fails. Live backup computers take over when another computer fails.

To avoid problems with server failure (a server is a computer that hosts a website), we've set up multiple redundant application servers. That means several identical copies of the computer that hosts your website are set up to run together. When one fails, several others take over flawlessly. Multiple redundant load balancers are on standby in case of load balance failure as well.

Our 24/7 system checking performs status checks on the servers 60 times per hour on each service. If server failure is detected, an automatic repair routine runs to bring the server back online. If the program cannot restore the failed server, a technician is automatically notified. While the repairs are made, other servers seamlessly take over the duties of the failed server. Users will not notice a difference in service.

If a mail server fails, a secondary mail server will automatically take over the duties of the primary mail server. The failed mail server will automatically reboot and restore its systems function. Users will never see problems with a failed mail server.

The database server is the computer where most of the website information is stored. In the event that the primary database fails, the backup database automatically takes over the duties of the failed database server.

Backed up information is taken off-site five days per week to protect data and prevent loss of information in the event of a catastrophe.

In RAID systems, information is stored on at least two hard drives simultaneously. In the event of a drive failure, a backup drive automatically takes over the duties of the failed drive. Server operations continue seamlessly. Technicians promptly replace the failed drive, and the data is immediately restored. RAID helps ensure data integrity.

The main server hard drives are enterprise class, and all hard drives are in RAID format. An enterprise class hard drive costs 2 to 4 times as much as a typical home or office drive (desktop class), but has much higher MTBF. MTBF, or Mean Time Between Failures, is a manufacturing rating that estimates the average time between hard drive failures. Higher time between failures means that potential problems occur less often.

In the event that the primary firewall fails, a backup firewall will immediately take over the duties of the failed firewall. Your information is safe from hacker attack.

In the event that a file server fails, a backup file server is ready to take over the duties of the failed file server.

Only authorized staff with top level security clearance can gain access to our dedicated server room. It is locked, secured, and features multiple power and coolant systems to maintain the servers in an optimal environment.

The dedicated server room has a dedicated air conditioning system with a backup, as well as a backup chilled water system to take over in the event of a cooling failure.

All servers are equipped with Uninterruptible Power Supplies. A UPS is a device that sits between the wall outlet and the computer to prevent power irregularities (outages, surges, etc.) from causing problems with the equipment. It also acts as a backup power supply and surge protector.

All servers are protected with secondary and backup power units. Our initial power supply is from the grid, but further protected from outages and irregularities by multiple on-site emergency power generators.
