A WordPress powered site that also powers your online store sounds like the perfect combination. It gives you the ability to combine your blog activity with your online products, all within the simple, yet powerful WordPress dashboard.
There are currently several options to transform your WordPress blog into an online store, and I’ve spent the last few weeks researching these options. Although I can’t recommend one solution as the ideal solution, I can offer my findings in the hope that they may help you make an educated decision for yourself if you are considering incorporating e-commerce into your WordPress powered site.

I recently read an amazing post by Hiro Boga called What I Learned About Life and Business from Crossing the Road in Bombay. Wow, if you’ve not had the opportunity to cross a road in Bombay, reading Hiro’s post will give you that chance. She so completely captures the memory that if you close your eyes, you too will be navigating that street crossing. You’ll hear the sounds, see the apparent chaos, smell the dung and garbage and coconut in the air, and feel the exhilaration when you actually make it to the other side.

If you’ve tried to figure this one out, you may have discovered the apparent difficulty — you can’t actually do that. Well, at least not directly. But you can include any module within a content item in Joomla 1.5.
So the first thing you need if you want to include affiliate code, a paypal button, a newsletter subscription form, etc. into a content item is to download and install Mod HTML for Joomla 1.5. Once installed, you can add your html, javascript, affiliate code, or paypal code into the Mod HTML and then load that module directly into a content item.

Just might hurt you. Ignorance isn’t really bliss, at least not in every situation. Sometimes, what you don’t see can be more important than what you actually see.
For a graphic (as in visual) example, consider a tree. We look at a tree and see a trunk, limbs, perhaps leaves and fruit, and that’s it. But that’s only half the picture; the real picture is below the surface, under the soil, where the root system of the tree lives.
The root system is where the tree really lives; it’s the source of the trunk, the trees, and the leaves that we see above the surface. A healthy root system means a healthy tree, and an unhealthy root system means an unhealthy tree.

Ever walked into a room and just felt something was off? No, it wasn’t the picture hanging crooked on the wall or the furniture arrangement. It was just a feeling in your gut that something wasn’t right.
A room holds more than pictures and furniture; it also holds a myriad of events, memories, feelings, conversations, and conflicts that people have experienced in that room. And it holds all this in its’ heart. Yes, a room has a heart – one that you can feel and sense – and so does your website.
Where’s the heart of your website?
You may have all the technical pieces in place but still be missing something. And that something missing may be the heart of the matter.

David Seltzer has been in alternative healing for over twenty years, and has created a very effective healing modality that he calls Healing Pathways. He not only heals; he also teaches and writes, and so he has a lot of valuable written material. But the material was only available to those who attended his classes – that is – until we designed a site for him and created a venue for him to share his healing method on the internet.
