Benefits to opening an online store through ChrisLands.com.

Experience.

• We have been operating online bookstores since 2001.

We have the best prices on the Internet.

• Fees start at just $24.99 a month.
• Very reasonable set-up fee.
• Click here for the entire fee schedule.

We are here! Since we started, we have heard similar stories many times.

• "I hired a web designer and when the site was done, I could not find that designer to make changes!"
• "When the web designer I hired was done, he never had time to do any modifications for me!"
• "I hired a web developer, they were almost done with the site and they just quit. I could not get them to finish no matter what I tried!"
• This won't happen with ChrisLands, we ARE here. You don't hire a site from us and then we disappear. We stay!

Our Support is Impeccable!

Since the beginning, we have prided ourselves in outstanding support. You will get a response from us and usually we can answer whatever you are asking! Just as mentioned above, we are here!

No Upgrade Fees!

We are always looking at ways to improve our system and service. As we add new features, you do not have to pay an additional fee to include those features in your store. Here are some questions we have of you.

Have you ever ordered a product or hired a web service, then had to pay for additional "modules" to complete or enhance your purchase?

Have you ever ordered a product and only received 6 or 12 months of free upgrades and after that you had to pay another fee?

Not with ChrisLands, if we add it, it is yours to use as you wish without any additional fee. One caveat to this though, if it cost us to add it, then we might charge a small fee to cover our cost. This has only happened once since we started though.

Concentrate on selling your products rather than the development of your online store.
