I originally called this course the 4-hour e-commerce training course. I gave paid-for training on a webinar basis. Although less than a year old, the materials are already slightly out of date, so I cannot really charge for access to them as was my original intention. However, I still believe the information is very much of value, so I have decided to offer it here as my first Instructable. There are four videos, each approx. 2 hours long, and this is the first.

The reason for the name of the course was that it should be possible for someone reasonably conversant with computers to look at the first video recording only, and then set up their own e-commerce site that offers a download, within a 4-hour space of time. That site will have its own domain name and will use professional hosting; in most cases, the domain name will cost about $10 per annum and the hosting about $10 per month or less. All of the software required to run the website is freely available and open source, and it is not necessary to know how to edit website code (HTML) or need to program in any language to do this.

I will try and answer questions on this site, but if you have questions, you might find a better response commenting to my blog post here, entitled The 4-Hour E-Commerce Site Training Webinars.
