Set up your Quick Shopping Cart store with a dedicated domain to allow your customers access your store when they enter your domain name in the address bar of their browser (for example, www.best-widgets.com). You can also set up your storefront with a subdomain (for example, shop.best-widgets.com).
To Set Up Your Quick Shopping Cart
- Log in to your Account Manager.
- In the My Products section, click Quick Shopping Cart.
- In the Quick Shopping Cart list, click Open next to the New Account you want to set up.
- Read the End User License Agreement, and then click Accept.
- Specify whether you want to use an available domain from your account, an available sub domain from your account, or a domain registered elsewhere.
NOTE: When setting up Quick Shopping Cart on a domain registered elsewhere, you need to manually modify the A record to point to your store's IP address. See Finding Your Store IP Address.
- Enter the following information:
- Email Address
- Enter the email address you want associated with the store.
- Company or Individual Name
- Enter the name you want associated with the store.
- Phone
- Enter the phone number you want associate with the store
- Slogan
- Enter the slogan you want to use with the store.
- Click OK.
- To confirm you want to set up the store for the domain name you entered, click OK.
- In the Wizard Builder, click Start, and follow the instructions to build your site.
