    I think given the previous discussion - going for a site with a shopping cart from the start is a bit like a learner driver taking lessons in a Ferrari! It's possible but not really recommended. Think about taking online payments and the security that needs to be built into that process, unless you're very experienced I personally think you're talking a professionally built site for that.

    I've done a few holiday home letting sites and I wouldn't even consider it. If you're starting off in a small way consider your site as an online brochure to showcase your products rather than an online shop, at least initially.
    I didnt say the shopping cart would be on the free site. I said I would build the free site and link it to the site with the shopping cart on it.

    This is something I've posted about before, and something I've already taken up. For the first year, this is ideal.
