I have a website right now that works okay but the code is not that clean and all my processes are disconnected. I am looking for a website/ecommerce solution that will integrate things like autoresponders, coupon codes, follow up reminders, purchase order invoices, etc.
I figured alot of you have websites/shopping and you can share what you really like about yours or if you think you're getting a good deal. I have no budget yet for these things so I need to keep the cost down. Paypal works alright for me right now, but eventually I need to upgrade so I am not doing all the steps myself and my customer has a smoother experience.
Thanks

I use the Yahoo web hosting and i can't say i have complains, but i heard good things about the small biz plan of Hostgator and i would like to try it.

This looked interesting to me:
(edit: frustratingly I don't have permission to post URLs, so try searching for "stripe-online-payments-paypal-google-checkout" and check out the inc article)

I think payment gateways are probably the way to go for most people. If you accept actual credit card info on your own site then you start getting in to the realm of legal ramifications if things go wrong. All the card data must be encrypted properly, you must have certificates etc.

I would love to hear what other people are doing and how they integrate it in to their websites.
