What's the easiest way to start an online store? An online store with products that people order and are shipped to their house.

    I'm afraid there is no "easy" way. And actually, building the store is the easiest part of it.

    Assuming you are not experienced in building websites, which is not meant at all to be a negative, you might try using Amazon's astore and insert into a template. But, it will take quite a bit of work promoting it.

    Consider outsourcing.

  • so from the research you have done so far, what direction are you leaning towards?

    and what kind of budget do you have to work with?

  • Ebay Stores would probably be the way to go. As long as you have your inventory/dropshipping figured out.

    The easiest way is to buy an existing site.

    The answer really depends what you're trying to achieve. Is it selling physical products? digital products? your own products? someone else's? are you drop-shipping? Do you need to take credit card payments or will Paypal do?

    No-one can give you a one-size fits all answer.

    It all depends what you're trying to do, what your budget is, what your business model is and what your skillset is. Do you have employees to look after it? are you doing it all yourself?

    You need to provide more detail in order to get a focused answer to your question.
