I have all along been curious to find out how other website owners add in shopping cart to their ecommerce websites. I think it is beneficial to know how to do that in case I have the need to do so in the future.
Incidentally, I received an email through a subscription site and it has a video link to show how to add a shopping cart to a website using Xsitepro which is the web-editor software that I use to design my website.
This email came in handy to teach website owners the skill so as to be more proficient for people to use the feature whenever a need arises in the near future.
In fact, it is a frequently-asked question as to whether it is possible to add a shopping cart to websites created with XsitePro and the answer is : “Yes, it can“.
In less than 10 minutes, the video clip will show you how incredibly easy it is to create a fully e-commerce enabled website in XsitePro, complete with shopping cart page and payment processing.
I have been busy typing my lines on Twitter whenever I log on to the internet every night lately. This social networking site is making me very occupied and spending a lot of time there 🙂
I’m just curious about how Twitter works so I have to use it frequently so as to explore further. Basically the function of Twitter is very straight forward. Any new users can follow through the steps quite easily when setting up a Twitter account.
What you need to do is to answer the standard question of Twitter : “What are you doing?”.
Your answers could be as simple as the following examples :
– I’m writing emailÂ
– Learning how to set up Facebook profileÂ
– Going to the mall for window shopping
– Doing my usual day-dreaming
– Drafting up a business plan
– Thinking how I can motivate my co-workers
– Setting up an online business
– Designing my new website
– Setting daily goals
– Cooking instant noodles for the kids
– It’s always darkest before the dawn
– Procrastination is the fear of success ~Denis Waitley
– etc.
Well, I’m still exploring around and getting myself familiar with Twitter. I will see how thing goes before updating another Blog post on Twitter.
Hear Susan Boyle sing the song entitled “Memory” from the musical “Cats” at the semi-final round #1 of the Britain’s Got Talent 2009 show.
Although there is some shakiness at the start of the singing, it doesn’t mar the overall performance of Susan Boyle during the semi-final.
A point to note is that it is surprising to see Simon Cowell apologized to Susan Boyle for what they had treated her during the audition. Perhaps, he has apologized for all the people that have hurt her.
I personally like Susan Boyle’s first performance singing “I Dreamed A Dream” at the audition more than this one singing the “Memory” at the semi-final round #1. Anyway, I long to see more great performance from Susan Boyle.
The singing sensation Susan Boyle is back and she has proceeded to the semi-finals of the Britain’s Got Talent 2009 show. Congratulations to Susan Boyle, Jamie Pugh and other contestants!
I really enjoy listening to Susan Boyle’s singing. Her live performance is excellent and amazing. I long to see Susan Boyle perform in the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent 2009 show.
Below is a video clip featuring the moment Susan Boyle, Jamie Pugh and other contestants learned of their success and celebrations after. Enjoy watching!
Getting more and more people are crazy for Twitter especially for Internet marketers who are so fond of using it to drive traffics to their squeeze and/or sales pages.
I think this is probably because Twitter is an easy-to-use online social networking site that allows the users to communicate with their friends, family, colleagues, loved ones and so on by typing a short sentence in less than 140 words.
I am curious about Twitter so I have decided to join in the Twitter fun by signing up an account this afternoon. You may want to join in the Twitter fun by watching the video clip below.
How To Set Up A Twitter Account :
I’ll play around with my Twitter account and see whether it is as fun as what it is claimed by most people. Stay Tuned.
Crocs is offering their deep price-slashing sale from 22-24 May this year at the Singapore Expo. Today is my rest day so I was free to accompany my sister to go to the Crocs shoes sale this afternoon.
Actually, this is the second time that Crocs is having their warehouse sale here and the previous Crocs sale was in November 2008. It had attracted a big crowd last year probably because the discount was up to 50%. You can really save a lot of money if you were a great fan of Crocs shoes.
Again, Crocs manages to attract a big crowd of eager purchasers to flock to the Singapore Expo exhibition hall. The queue is so long that it has to use the empty exhibition hall next door to let the anxious customers to line up and wait for their turn to enter the Crocs exhibition hall.
My sister and I thought that the Crocs fever was over since many people have had purchased their Crocs shoes last year. However, what we had seen this afternoon tell us otherwise. The fact is that many people here are still very crazy for Crocs shoes especially Crocs is offering up to 50% of discount.
It is kind of difficult to believe that we are experiencing the global economic downturn right now in view of the strong purchasing power of the local people. Anyway, it is a good sign that might help to boost the economy and help to save more jobs.
I guess most of us are inevitably feeling stressed out at work or with our daily chores especially during this global economic downturn. We could be so busy until we might not notice the changes happening around us.
I think we ought to learn how to stay calm in order to have a cool and clear mind to think rationally. There is no use to grumble and complain about how unfair things might happen before our eyes.
So, stay calm by having a moment of Zen and appreciate the words of wisdom featuring in the video clip :
I have just created my first website using Xsitepro. I find that this is a great paid web-editor software which is very easy to use. It came with 3 manuals, namely tutorial, tools and essential, that assist the user to design his/her own website.
I did use some free web-editor software before but I find that this kind of free software is more cumbersome to use especially if you do not have much experience or knowledge in designing websites.
I had bought a couple of how-to CDs that teach people on how to build websites using Microsoft’sFrontPage and Macromedia’sDreamweaver more than a year ago.Â
I took the Dreamweaver how-to CD out and spent my whole Sunday afternoon learning how to create a website using Dreamweaver. I must say that the CD is a very good guide as it holds your hand and shows you step by step on how to use the different methods to designing a Dreamweaver website.
However, I feel that Dreamweaver is a very sophiscated kind of web-editor software that suits professional web developers more than novice users. I really got frightened after going through the whole CD but I have to say that Dreamweaver is really a very good piece of web-editor software.
So, I would recommend beginners to use a free web-editor software to learn the basic of designing a website first and then purchase an easy-to-use one such as Xsitepro to start the journey of website designing for youself or for other people.
I have finally finished designing my new website and I’m so excited about it. I bought a domain name from a domain registrar and then let it go live yesterday. It took me close to 6 weeks to complete the website design. I’m proud to tell people that I know how to design website from now onwards 🙂
I have had the concept of building my own website since last year but I only got serious about doing it near the end of March 2009. I first drafted out the plan on a piece of paper and then transformed the ideas into an Excel spreadsheet in April.Â
I did my research by leveraging on other people’s websites. I wrote my own content on all of the webpages. I also designed my own web graphics such as logo, header, footer, gallery, divider, bullet points and so on. It gives me a lot of satisfaction and fulfilment for doing all of the designs by myself.
In fact, I had always wanted to design my own website since many years back but I didn’t know how to go about doing it. I also didn’t know what kind of website that I wanted to build back then. So, it was a matter of not knowing the how-to rather than being procrastinating.
Fortunately, there are many great information, such as eBook, video, newsletter and so on, on the internet guiding people on how to build website as well as uploading files to the server. Some of the informations are free and some are paid. Â
I use both free and paid informations as I believe that you have to invest in it if you wanted to succeed in mastering certain skills. I’m glad that I have learnt a new skill set and I will explode in other areas to learn more skills so as to add more values to myself.
I have had a chat with my friend over the phone to catch up how we have been doing lately. I came to realise that we did not communicate with each other for quite a while as we are both busy with our own stuff.
We have had a lot of things to update each other within a few minutes of our conversation. Although we still keep in contact via email, we simply receive and forward emails most of the time. I think this is a way of life for most people.
Some of my friends also tell me that they have to stop somewhere after writing a long email. If not, they are not sure what else to tell me in the next email 🙂
But I think it is easier for them to know more about me and find out how I have been doing by visiting my personal Blog. I might not disclose too much things publicly but they get to know me more if they have the interest to read my Blog posts.
So, this is one of the benefits for having a Blog. But I do think it is also important to catch up with friends by talking to them over the phone or asking them out for a meal. I will definitely find time for that.
Welcome To " My Piece Of Sky Blog "! Enjoy!! ~Cheers~
