Categories are listed as pages making it easy to keep track and design your site. ShopSite Pro also includes real–time credit card authorization, a site search engine, detailed sales and traffic statistics, great shipping and tax utilities, and many more features listed on the homepage.
One limitation that ShopSite has is a limited number of design templates to choose from.
