Brand new to Magento, have heard a lot about it but trying to wrap my head around it all because the info on the site isn’t great.

 

 

  1. If I go with the free version, are there transaction fees, etc? Or are the only fees the ones that are associated with my payment gateway? 
  2. Do I just need a Authorize.net account and that’s it, in order to sell online products using Magento?
  3. Is Magento hosted solution or is it installed on the owners server?
  4. Can I design a site from scratch or does it need to follow a template?
  5. We have a store with probably 10 categories, 500 products total, does amount of product determine anything?

    Hi Byron – the best thing to do is download Magento – choose the free and open source CE and follow the installation instructions and start playing around!.

    Here’s a link to the free Magento User Guide to help you get started in a breeze:
