I have some important points to for you that you have to consider while installing Magento E-commerce. First of all, you have to find out the latest version of Magento template. As a developer, it is obvious that you are finding latest release that comes up with some minor changes.

It is advisable to check such schedules first, if you are not getting any alerts. Third thing you have to consider is the compatibility of plug-ins.
