The difference between eCommerce website hosting and regular Web hosting is CREDIT CARD DATA. Credit card data must be managed in accordance with the PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS mandate issued by VISA.
Brandesigns Web Solutions offers their clients customized and quality services, enabling even the smallest e-business to gain an online web presence quickly and inexpensively. Online merchants put their businesses at great risk if due diligence is not practiced and steps are not taken to protect their customers' cardholder data. It is key that merchants align themselves with solution providers like Brandesigns.
In order to process credit card payments on your website, you will need a merchant account with an accredited credit card processing procedure. Brandesigns will assist you in selecting a merchant processor that is right for your business. Electronic Commerce Websites require SSL, or Secure Socket Layers. SSL Certificates ensure that information transmitted over the Internet, such as names, credit card numbers, passwords, etc., is secure from prying eyes and thieving hands. In order to install SSL Certificates on E-Commerce Websites, a website needs a unique Internet Protocol Address, or IP Address. Brandesigns E-Commerce Website Hosting Packages takes care of all the necessary requirements to ensure you are compliant with security protocols.

And I will give you [spiritual] shepards after My own heart [in the final time], who will feed you with knowledge and understanding and judgment. Jeremiah 3:15
The PCI Standard (www.pcisecuritystandards.org) is the result of collaboration between the five major credit card companies (Visa ® International, MasterCard ® Worldwide, American Express ®, Discover® Financial Services and JCB ®) to develop a single approach to safeguarding sensitive data, prevent credit card fraud, hacking and various other security issues. The standards define a series of best practices for handling, transmitting and storing sensitive data.
What are the Consequences of PCI Non Compliance?
Currently, any merchant, organization or software that processes, stores or disseminates credit card data must be PCI DSS compliant or they risk hefty fines and/or losing the ability to process credit cards altogether thus putting their entire business in jeopardy.
