Hello All!
Just launched two sites for craft enthusiasts so they could download patterns. One is for knitting http://shop.interweave.com/knitting and the other beading projects http://shop.interweave.com/beading. I designed the sites to match our knittingdaily.com and beadingdaily.com sites, and had AWCS and our in house programmer make it a reality.

Let me know if you have any thoughts.

Also: do you think paypal is important when dealing with international clientèle?

Cheers!

"Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"? You may want to contact your server admin, unless its just me, both sites seem to be down.

That's looking very good. Before you open, you might want to have AWCS set it so that two URLs don't go to your store.
http://shop.interweave.com/Knitting-Patterns-C7.aspx
and
http://shop.interweave.com/store/Knitti ... ns-C7.aspx
(remove /store folder).
I did work for one client whose SEO company wanted them to remove the /store folder in the URL because their site had a lot of duplicate pages in Google because of it. It took us 1-2 months to clear all the duplicate pages out of Google when we instituted a work around to get rid of the /store folder.
