Overview

Turn your Shopstorenow website into a turnkey business in a few hours using the Portal Builder. Our all-in-one tool allows you to be hosting websites, defining packages and setting prices and features, monitoring activity and automatically creating customer built websites.

The Portal Builder Contains all Administrative and Presentation elements required to facilitate Instant Website Customization and Creation, Automated Payment Collection and Hosting Plan Selection for web hosting companies.

Creating a website takes just a few simple steps:

1. Select the Hosting Package. Before selecting you can view the details of each package, or the overview of all packages compared.

2. Select the features you want in your website. These are defined by the package you have selected, so some packages may have different features than another. The features correspond to the modules that will be available to you when your website is created.

3. Select the Skin and Containers to define the way your website will appear.

4. Enter in your information and domainname. This is used to make your account.

And then just click on the link to go to paypal or use a credit card to make a payment, and in a couple seconds you will be redirected to your newly created website with premade pages containing the modules you selected, and displaying the theme you selected. You can always change the way your website looks, and you can change, delete or create new pages as you need them. Using a Shopstorenow website is very easy to learn, and is an incredibly powerful way to manage your internet services.

On the back end there are many settings that a Hosting company can use to define their packages and tailor them to their needs. The interface is quite flexible, providing for a wide variety of different combinations of screens, including optional agreements, instructions, start page, and welcome page.


The administrator starts by creating Hosting Packages. Here he defines the basic parameters such as the monthly price, and the description of the package. Then he creates Features using the module he has installed into the Shopstorenow instance and adds them to the Package. The packages will show up on the screens in the Portal Builder.
