Default Will baby plan do what I need?

I am almost ready to take the dive. I think I want the baby plan for $6.36/month.

My goal is to talk a bit about my products, display them and sell them. I would also hope to have a forum for discussion of related topics. Items also considered important would be a visit counter and/or traffic analyzer and a method to accept credit card payment.

Will baby plan accomplish this?

Yes, can't see any reason why not.

Personally my view is not to place a visible visit counter on the site. Very 80's. Instead view the site analysis tools in your cpanel account, which are only visible to you.

Agreed. You might also want to add Google Analytics to your site, which lets you look at some different "slices" of the traffic data.

well, hostgator baby plan looks like a good start, but if you feel too tight you can always upgrade your plan to a higher level, but if it is really popular items and you start consuming CPU and Connections then it is time to go even higher to HG VPS

If you are going to be selling online you will want to have an SSL. The servers come with a self signed SSL but most ecommerce sites want one that matches their domains. The Business Plan comes with one or you can order one from this URL.

If you wish for a baby plan I would personally recommend
1 year $7.96 a month plan if you wish for a Hatchling plan I recommend 1 year $5.56 a month plan and if you wish for a Business Plan I recommend 1 year $11.96 a month plan. It is up to you of course. Best of luck to you.
