			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was just reading a great article at <a href="http://www.css-tricks.com/">CSS Tricks</a> on <a href="http://css-tricks.com/ecommerce-considerations/">eCommerce Considerations</a> &#8211; maybe more accurately <strong>how to choose an e-commerce platform</strong> &#8211; and a section of it struck me as extremely relevant.</p>
<p>In the features section, Chris has a good starter list of things that are important for an e-commerce solution to support:</p>
<blockquote style="line-height: 2em; color: black; margin-left: 60px;">
<ul>
<li><strong>Coupons</strong></li>
<li><strong>Inventory Tracking</strong></li>
<li><strong>Recommended Products</strong></li>
<li><strong>User Reviews</strong></li>
<li><strong>Shipping Options</strong></li>
<li><strong>International Support</strong></li>
<li><strong>Integration with other Systems</strong></li>
<li><strong>Search</strong></li>
<li><strong>Organizational Capabilities</strong></li>
<li><strong>Customer / User Benefits</strong></li>
<li><strong>Statistics / Tracking</strong></li>
<li><strong>Checkout Process</strong></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>Off the top of my head, I&#8217;d look for widget support, an active development community, usability on the merchandising side&#8230; just as some starts. Overall, really solid high level article and a good starting place.</p>
