  Hey I am in the midst of starting a small clothing company with my brother and was wondering if we can use wordpress as a website to show and sell our clothes? Are there any legal things we should worry about? I suppose it would just entitle showing pictures of our new material and asking people to e-mail us with orders and using paypal, etc. But im wondering if this sort of thing is allowed on wordpress =)

  Sorry to tell you but I do believe it is not permitted unless you have VIP hosting.. And to do that you need at least 500,000 page views a month to be considered..

  Here’s the link:

  Some sales are permitted. The best thing to do is email staff with all the details and ask.

  Ah thanks guys, I know the staff here are really good so asking would never hurt.

  I hear about that VIP thing and thought, “yeahhhh riight”..

  I know I could do it through wordpress.org, maybe I will invest in a wordpress for dummies book.

  Thanks again fam-os!

  WordPress.org is a dynamite solution if you really want to sell products. You can even use plugins that add some significant e-commerce functionality.

  I would like to sell a photograph. If someone would pay me $10,000,000 for a picture I’ve already snapped, I would be willing to give that person all rights to the photograph. I would also give a back-rub.
