Zen Cart and Ecommerce Web-sites

Zen Cart is a free of charge and open source shopping cart software. Zen Cart's source code can be freely modified and even redistributed by users. The code for Zen Cart is a fork of some other shopping cart plug-in called osCommerce, and is meant to be easier to use and configure by those not so technically inclined. Zen Cart is maintained by a small, but focused community who are making steady improvements to the software.

Please don't be bother with the installation process - if you have ever installed WordPress successfully this should be a cake walk.

Zen Cart is built to make it effortless to set up product listings, pricing and payment options and also act as a content management system (CMS) for all other aspects of your e-commerce web page. This will definitely help to maintain a website and make it much more intuitive and easier to understand for many who are not necessarily web designers or programmers. In case you run in to difficulties or require a fast solution to a problem, there is a very active help community forum to get you sorted.

Today all users can customize their site with a help of many Zen Cart templates available from various sites on the net. Use of Zen Cart templates will let the site owner quickly modify the design of their web site to better suit their individual needs. One of the advantage of Zen Cart Themes is that site owners can eliminate the need to hire a web designer to tweak the basic layout to suit the particular type of product presentation. Other benefit is that Zen Cart themes are easy to install.
