    Integrate Online Store

    I'd like to get opinions on the best way to integrate an online store into an existing website/forum.

    Here are my options:
    1. Setup shop as part of existing site (www.mywebsite.com/onlinestore). This appears to be how Glenn did it on this site.
    2. Setup shop as a new standalone website (www.shopmywebsite.com). I can add a link on my forum navbar that points to the standalone site.
    I plan do to a self-hosted eCommerce solution. I don't have the ability to merge user accounts between my forums and any ecommerce software and even if I could, I'm not sure I'd want too for security reasons. I'm interested in the pros/cons you foresee, with these two options.

    TIA

    dont forget to consider subdomain like "shop.mywebsite.com" its a good way to keep it separated but not completely...so for one example ssl cert can cover both but you can easily have separate configuration and security, performance etc for the different softwares...
