I believe Tunertoys uses godaddy. I'm one of those people who doesn't know ---- about websites, so I just keep a close network of people who have a clue. My online store is all set up through paypal. It's the best thing I ever did. Once you set it up, people buy ---- all day and all night, and the minimum you have to do is answer questions in your email box/forums.

If you need a website maker, let me know.

Yup, Paypal API makes it pretty straightforward to integrate. You could also add Google Checkout if you wanted, although I'm not sure how many people would use it. There are also a lot of merchant sites that will let you set it up.

I personally use www.1and1.com for my hosting needs. They have great deals and their service has never failed me. Comes with a lot of free software, built in website building programs, lot of features, plenty of bandwidth (I think I pay $10 a month for 2.5tb transfer and 250gb webspace), and I think they even have a tool to set up a store on their site. I haven't checked any of it, I prefer to have full control and do it myself, but the tools are available and customer service is good.

I think imburne also uses 1and1.com for his online store. I can do webdev if you have money
