Hi,
The confusion is understandable, because Yahoo! Web Hosting and Yahoo! Merchant Solutions actually share a lot of features! Both plans include a web site, with a domain and a professional email account to match. The biggest difference you'll want to consider is the kind of ecommerce tools you need.
Yahoo! Web Hosting plans include PayPal button tools, which are easy to set up and allow you to accept credit card and other payments on your site; you can then fulfill and ship your orders yourself. PayPal buttons are perfect if you're not expecting heavy sales volume at first, and if you have time to handle each order from payment to delivery. They also don't require a big financial investment: On top of your Web Hosting account, you'll pay either nothing or a small fee for each transaction. (Learn more about the cost of using PayPal buttons with Web Hosting here: http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/webhosting...
Yahoo! Merchant Solutions is designed for small business owners who want a complete ecommerce system for their site. A Merchant Solutions account makes it easy to set up and design a store (learn more here: http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/store/stor... You can use either PayPal or a merchant account to manage payment processing right on your site, use built-in tools to manage your orders, fulfillment and shipping. Besides the cost of your Merchant Solutions account, you'll pay fees on each transaction. (Check our help center for more on the cost: http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/store/abou...
Not every business needs a Yahoo! Merchant Solutions plan to start -- some merchants just don't need so many ecommerce features. If you decide to start with a Web Hosting account, you can always upgrade to our Merchant Solutions package later, so just pick the plan that's most comfortable for you! You can find out more about both packages (and see sample sites) on the Yahoo! Small Business home page at http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com.
Good luck!
