Your post has the potential to do more harm than good. Kindly include and elaborate in detail the steps required to keep those coins safe.

As soon as a person starts to look for a wallet, they are flooded with disclaimers and security guidelines and you want me to add those again on a quick and easy guide. hmmm.
That was not the intention of the post.

Thanks a lot for valuable information. I request you to write post which explains "how to accept Bitcoin on website".
That would be much more helpful for people interested in selling goods.

Sure, in fact I have made my code open source. Check out my github, it has full working code on how to accept it on a website.

Isn't there any simple instructions that I can forward to my stupid web developer to accept Bitcoin on website? I just to accept and hold them. No intentions to liquidate them from merchant solution or exchanges.

No need to do any integration, if you ask me.
Simply create an address and publish it on website for payment. Ask user to send BTC equivalent payment to that address.
You can even specify a USD price and can get equivalent BTC amount automatically displayed there.

On top of it, create a wallet in blockchain.info, add that address as watch only address and you will get payment notification on email too.

Yeah, this is a vanilla flavored way of doing it.
I personally prefer adding the callbacks, etc and keeping a database in place rather than annoying e-mail notifs.
