Wix

Wix is an easy to use, pure drag and drop website to build your online store where content such as images, text, slide shows can be inserted, pretty much anywhere on the webpages that you want. Like many other advanced eCommerce store builders such as Shopify and BigCommerce, Wix does not offer the most advanced store building tools; but if you need to make it simple, Wix is the best choice.

On Wix, you can sell your products with different variations such as different color or size of a single item. Moreover, Wix provides you with an integrated shopping cart where the payment processors can be connected which include Authorize.net, PayPal and offline payments can also be conducted.

Weebly

Weebly operates around 441,000 online stores worldwide which makes it one of the popular online store builders. If you do not intend to create an advanced eCommerce store and are in need of an easy-to-use store builder, then Weebly is a builder which can be seriously considered while creating an online store. The drag and drop interface is the simplest of all. However, the drawback as mentioned involves less comprehensive features and tools. Still, you can set up a store which offers multiple products at a time, with the variation of every product in size and color. Additionally, a fully integrated shopping cart is incorporated. All in all, the shopper would never want to leave your site as the customers will be accorded with automatic email notifications, coupon codes, fluid experience and a consistent feel.
