I have a Godaddy Acct, Wordpress Acct and want to sell stuff online but dont want the cost of an SSL. How?

id eventually like to get an SSL and sell independently but in the meantime, I want to test the waters. Can i use Yahoo Stores or something similar??

You do NOT need SSL, unles you are a bank or have a real merchant account.
SSL requires certification, which is a lot of paper work and quite expensive (to renew every year as well!)
If you want to sell anything, just use PayPal in its simple form. You don’t ned to ask private data from any of your customer (NEVER do that, unless you are certified).
Here is a simple piece of code:


function process_payment()
{
if ($_POST['payment_status'] == "Completed")
return("Thank you for your payment of ".$_POST['mc_gross']." ".$_POST['mc_currency']);
else
return("Sorry, payment failed.");
}
function call_paypal()
{
$PPbusiness = "my_paypal@yahoo.com"; // YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT
$PPreturn = "http://www.yoursite.com/paypal.php"; // ENTER THE FULL URL OF YOUR SITE
$PPcancel = "http://www.yoursite.com/paypal.php"; // ENTER THE FULL URL OF YOUR SITE

$Sess = "your session number or anything you want to get back";
$txt = "

“;
return($txt);
}
?>


if (isset($_POST['mc_gross']))
echo (process_payment());
else if (!isset($_POST['submit']))// first time around
echo (call_paypal());
unset($_POST);
?>


(change with its real form, stupid editor!)
