If you've been watching the journey of Hotcakes Commerce over the years at all, you know that it has a very interesting past. It began as a different platform altogether. It became a wildly successful commercial e-commerce solution that consistently was in the top 3 products in the DNN Store. It then became an open-source e-commerce platform, making it freely available to the world. This is the solution you're reading about and know about today.

cheap like their name suggests, and they’re super easier to use. However, things just got even
easier.

Last night, I had the pleasure of presenting to the
Toronto Area DNN Users Group (a.k.a., TADUG), hosted by
Aderson Oliveira. TADUG is currently enjoying a revival, so I couldn’t pass up this opportunity.
He asked me to bring some e-commerce goodness to their user group, and I hope I delivered. In this presentation
and Q&A, we discuss some of the most critical trends and techniques that e-commerce website owners should remember.
Spoiler alert… There are actually 6 tips in this presentation. Surprise!
