2. Wix: Great for blogging and good for selling products. Wix's approach is very much a drag and drop approach to website builds.

3. Wordpress~WooCommerce: Using the WooCommerce plugin within your Wordpress setup allows you to build out a fully fledged Ecommerce offering. This platform will be the most cost effective approach for your business.

When selecting your platform pay attention to any additional fees. For example its important to understand which payment options are supported by the platforms and whether there are any additional fees when taking payments.
