Hi All,
I am planning to build a website where products are Bamboo and wooden kitchenware. I am curious to know when i build a website to sell online (eCommerce website) . Which one is better: using a ready-made theme or using a customized website with coding? for coding which coding language is best for security and features. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

@Hyakas ... Welcome to Webmasterworld!

If you are hand coding, then stick with it. If you are using a CMS designed for ecommerce, stick with it. One is more work on the personal side, the other has developer updates and other things to consider.

Before you do anything, have a business plan---and look at your marketing possibilities!
