If you’ve never heard of Magento now, you most definitely will have later.I’ve blogged about it before, and it will soon become the standard shopping cart software around the world, mainly due to its simple yet incredible features, but also because of the speed and the clean Web 2.0 look and feel of the sites that it produces.

Produced by a company called Varien, Magento is easy to use once it is installed. However, quite unfortunately, it has already got a reputation for being a bit of a nightmare to install. You need to have your server set up just right, with the right versions of PHP, MySQL, Apache – plus you need to have right PHP extensions such as PDO_MYSQL added. For many people who may have webspace from a reseller, or on a managed server, this may well prove difficult.

Even I myself have use a dedicated fully accessible server, and getting it just right is a bloody tricky thing to do. That’s why, if you’re looking for some reliable to host it, you should use Simple Helix. This company have a numer of flexible hosting packages which are amazingly good value, but the best things is that they have a number of packages already pre-installed on the server.

This means if you want to have Magento set up on your webspace, you simply login to their Control Panel and select Magento, and it unzips it and installs the package on your site for you. I would really recommend it, especially even if you’d just like to test Magento.

Get on to SimpleHelix.com and sign up and give it a whirl, because you’ll definitely find Magento so much nicer hosting it here!
