One thing that is extremely important when looking at ecommerce hosting is the use of SSL. This means that the website is secure to be able to send payments over and is something that all users will check before they agree to typing in their credit card details.
The SSL is a form of encryption that means it is harder for somebody to intercept the payments and take the details to be able to commit fraud. This is why it could be useful to check for sites that offer a PayPal payment method because PayPal already uses SSL to protect the people that pay over the sites.
If buyers do not feel safe in sending their details over then you will find that fewer people will buy your products. This is very damaging to your business so is something that you should check that the web hosting site is able to offer before you pay for the service and take out a contract with them for your retail business
