Im looking into setting up a small ecommerce site as my next project and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with ecommerce sites. Has anyone used any of the online template sites like [homestead.com](http://homestead.com)? If so can you recommend one for me. Ease of use for customers is the #1 priority so it doesnt need to be flashy at all. At the moment Im looking at using [homestead.com](http://homestead.com)’s storefronts but Im not sure if this is the best way to go about this since I have next to no experience. ---

I’ve had one build for me, but never build one myself. Something like a website where the competitive field is flooded with others, your presentation will say a lot about you, DIY is just not the way to go and is best left for professionals IMO. ---
