Looking for a web hosting blog? Maybe one that isn’t just filled with referral links, and reviews? Then maybe it’s time to visit Temi’s Blog.

An Actual Blog About Hosting

So the reason I like Temi’s web hosting blog is because it’s not about where to get the best server for cheap. It’s about what makes a good server, and it’s from the perspective of an IT professional.  Temi is an IT professional with a MSc in Internet Technology. I’ve known Temi for a while now, and besides educational qualifications he has a ton of real life experience in the industry.

Temi also has a little more experience than some when comes to web security on ecommerce sites because he was the main developer for Boss Cart, a popular ecommerce software. There is a great post on PCI compliance. I would suggest reading it if your site processes credit cards.

The blog has been around for a while, so there is a ton of great articles. Recently he just did some upgrades to the theme of the site, and I think it’s helping out  is traffic substantially. Server getting your down? You may just want to check out his blog: Temi’s Blog

Have the know how on how to build a website? Don’t have the know how on building a retail site with a shopping cart? Don’t worry, most don’t, and those that do know how, know that someone else has already built a platform that you can use for free. Welcome to Boss Cart, your ecommerce shopping cart solution.

One of the reasons I like Bosscart is because it has a free version. If you have a small site, or just a few products, it’s hardly worth spending thousands on a premium shopping cart. That would be an especially painful purchase if you don’t even end up liking it. You can get BossCart for free, and all you have to do is give them a little credit with a text link.

Here are some of their selling points:

• Easy to set up
• Template driven for easy customisation
• Search engine friendly pages
• Search engine friendly images
• Support raw flash movies as images
• Built in CRM system
• Upload multiple products at the same time
• No limit to number of items you can sell
• Integrates with all UK payment provider gateways
• Money off web hosting from leading hosting companies
• Free technical support

Currently Boss Cart supports hundreds of sites using their free version. Boss Cart also comes in a more premium version, meaning paid. The premium version comes with a stack of additional items. It has lots of additional items to really customize for your site, and comes with a more robust store management interface. The premium version additionaly has some extra fraud prevention.

Easy to use software, and if you are a webmaster (not in need of this software), but might have an audience that is in need, Boss Cart now has an affiliate program selling the premium version.  For more information about the affiliate program see their Reseller label shopping cart page.
