I am going to be converting an eCom site from Monster Commerce to a self-hosted, SEO friendly solution with blog integration, for a store with about 300 products. Currently I am trying to decide which software solution will fit the bill. Open source versus commercial doesn't matter that much: I would willingly drop $300 to have the best solution. The prospect of building a custom coded website doesn't appeal to me. I've successfully gone that route in the past, but I wish to avoid it if possible, and being a programmer myself, I don't want to pay another programmer $2k to develop it for me.
Requirements:
SEO friendly URLs
Blog integration
Slick admin interface
Bonus:
Affiliate system
So far I am leaning towards WordPress eCom: WordPress e-Commerce Plugin a WordPress Shopping Cart Plugin by Instinct | Instinct Entertainment
I am also looking at: CRE Loaded with SEO URLs plugin - CRE SEO URLs Ecommerce Software by CRE Loaded - Shopping Cart Products
I would entertain Magento but I believe it is still slow and buggy.
Any other opinions?
