Online Store Progress

I’m still working on the online store just had to take time to perform life’s other tasks. I still have a few steps to go before making it visible and accessible to people online. Initially the online store I have will be to get rid of items I currently have from various upgrades of systems equipment and purchased items I want don’t have room for in the home.
The next steps will be testing and putting in place an SSL security certificate and then purchasing one. Then making those pages secure. Not that’s its currently needed since initially I intend to use Paypal to handle my transactions at their secure site I just want that flexibility for when I expand in the future.
I also have to take pictures of all of the items I have and then redo them in some photo software to optimize them for the web I will also be working on the look and style of the site.
I am going to make sure that I can easily transfer from my database to other forms like Gnucash (Linux) a financial program, Excel and maybe even Access. I then want this information to be easily pulled automatically or manually into one of my other systems to help with my ease of book and record keeping.
I also can create an inventory list on this system or another program and have it uploaded to my online store.
Those are my most obvious TODO lists for my online store it’s already looking nice and is very functional but I want to make sure I’m as familiar as possible with all aspects of it before I go online.
I just want to make this as automated as possible right now. I know that when business starts happening you don’t want to have to then start building your business infrastructure the basic pieces should already be in place. There will be changes to the infrastructure and improvements but because the common pieces are in place and I hope to be very familiar with them expansion should be very modular and not overly difficult.
