OREM, Utah, Oct. 14 /-- ShopSite, Inc., a leading provider of e-commerce shopping cart and catalog software for small to medium-sized businesses, announced the release of its new ShopSite version 10. ShopSite(R) is an industry leading e-commerce software option for web hosting providers, for new or existing Internet merchants, and for Web designers.

"We are excited that ShopSite has achieved the status of a Certified Integration Partner, having recently completed an integration with Doba's product sourcing API," said Blaine Nielsen, CEO of Doba. "Their integration gives ShopSite merchants the ability to choose from over 1,000,000 wholesale products that can be simply added to their website with a click of a button and also automates the ordering and drop ship fulfillment process."

"New features such as the Doba integration and the HTML Editor are available in all ShopSite product levels - Starter, Manager, and Pro," said CEO David Hills. "Additionally some features previously available only in the top of the line Pro level are now available in Manager. Manager merchants can now enjoy features such as Google Analytics, Custom Page and Product Fields, and Page Sort."

New Features

HTML Editor (Pro, Manager, Starter)

Many text fields can now be edited using a word processor-like HTML Editor. Toolbar buttons allow merchants to quickly add layout and style elements, and view the results as they edit the text.

Doba drop shipping (Pro, Manager, Starter)

ShopSite has integrated support for Doba drop shipping service. Doba has over 1,000,000 products that ShopSite merchants can sell without having to physically handle a single product. ShopSite can automatically import product information from Doba and post it to the merchant's store for ordering by shoppers. Order information is directly sent to Doba for fulfillment.

Value Added Tax (VAT/GST) (Pro, Manager, Starter)

Merchants in the European Union, Canada, and other countries can now use an integrated VAT/GST calculator. ShopSite can be configured to automatically calculate value added tax based off the merchant's country and the customer's country and postal code.
