An established online store creator platform is available for purchase. It offers advanced features and is currently being sold as its current owner lacks the resources to further develop the business. The platform includes complete Google Checkout Level 2 integration and is a registered Google Checkout partner. Developed over seven months using PHP 5, MySQL 5, and the Prototype JavaScript library, individual stores are hosted on separate databases, ensuring independence while sharing base codes. The system runs on Fedora Core 6 but is compatible with other Linux versions.
Buyers can explore a working example by creating a free account, with more details about features, which include SEO-friendly URLs, customizable templates, Google Checkout and PayPal integration, product reviews, and automatic image resizing, available online. Approximately 100 stores have been created, with all accounts currently in free trials. The platform's website recently experienced around 4,000 page views from 1,600 unique visitors in a month.
The buyer will gain all rights to the source code, installation service on their server, and migration of existing customers. Although there is a reserve price, the owner is open to negotiations if not met. A meeting in San Francisco with the buyer can be arranged. This opportunity is ideal for entrepreneurs seeking a new venture. The sale was relisted due to an unmet reserve, with both the reserve and BIN (Buy It Now) price lowered to $15,000. Interested buyers are encouraged to make an offer before the auction closes upon payment confirmation. Currently, no revenue is being generated as free trials are offered, and traffic is driven 90% by referring sites and 10% by search engines.
