Internet shopping carts or virtual shopping carts
is a relatively new concept. This is a software program that can
be integrated into your Web store to enable customers to choose
one or more items from the Web store. With this feature they are
able to specify particular options that might be available, and
then purchase those items collectively online.
There are many shopping carts that are now available.
Prominent among them are Open Source commerce (os commerce), Monster
cart commerce, Agora cart commerce, X-cart commerce, GoEcart commerce,
Pay Pal, etc.
Just as there are various shopping carts, the ways in which these
shopping carts work also differ. One way of storing information
is by using data collection forms and then passing this information
through the URL of the web. Some shopping carts use “cookies”
while others work by storing the customer's shopping cart in a database
on the Web store's server. There are many pros and cons to all these
methods.
While passing information through URL of
the Web is relatively easy to use, it can get very confusing as
URLs can get cluttered and unorganized. Storing the customer's shopping
cart in a database on the server allows Web store owners to see
the existing shopping carts at any time, before or after purchase.
When using cookies, a virtual shopping cart can be stored in the
customer's Web browser, instead of on the server - eliminating any
database maintenance that is necessary when using the above option
Search engine genie helps you find the perfect shopping cart and
integrate it with your site.
