WooCommerce has been around since 2011 and has a strong development team behind it.<\/p>\n\n<p>Just like WordPress, WooCommerce is a free and open source. So despite its premium feel, it\u2019s completely free for anyone to download, use and modify.<\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Powerful and <\/strong><strong>an amazing set of features<\/strong><strong> of <\/strong><strong>WooCommerce:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sell\u00a0<strong>any kind of product\u00a0<\/strong>you like: physical, digital or even affiliate<\/li>\n<li>Add\u00a0<strong>unlimited products and images<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Add\u00a0<strong>categories, tags, and attributes<\/strong>\u2013 including size or color \u2013 to any product to make it easier to find and search<\/li>\n<li><strong>Geo-location auto<\/strong>-detects customers\u2019 addresses to simplify shipping and tax calculations<\/li>\n<li>Choose how you\u2019d like to\u00a0<strong>process payments<\/strong>: use popular providers such as Stripe and PayPal, credit cards, Direct Bank Transfer, checks or Cash on Delivery<\/li>\n<li>Choose\u00a0<strong>shipping options and<\/strong>\u00a0restrict options based on customer location<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manage orders and customers with<\/strong>\u00a0one-click refunds, customer accounts, and guest checkout<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3><strong>Install the WooCommerce WordPress plugin<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>You can install WooCommerce straight from your WordPress installation, the same as any other WordPress plugin.<\/p>\n<p>To add WooCommerce to your website, head to\u00a0<strong>Plugins\u00a0\u2192 Add New<\/strong>\u00a0and search \u201cWooCommerce\u201d to locate the WooCommerce plugin<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve found it, click\u00a0<strong>Install Now<\/strong>\u00a0then\u00a0<strong>Activate<\/strong>. You\u2019ll then be taken immediately to the WooCommerce Setup wizard<\/p>\n\n<p>You should go through this setup straightaway and fill in all the details relevant to your store. If you\u2019re unsure about which payment gateway you want to use, you can decide this later.<\/p>\n<p>There are readily available themes in WooCommerce. When you\u2019re considering a theme, be sure to check <em>all<\/em> WooCommerce pages \u2013 not just the shop page. This includes the \u2018My Account\u2019 section, the cart, and the checkout page.<\/p>\n<p>The<strong> first thing to do<\/strong> is to add some products! These are the things you\u2019ll be selling. Go to <strong>Products\u00a0\u2192 Add New<\/strong>\u00a0and you\u2019ll be taken to the product page. It\u2019s similar to adding posts or pages, but specifically for WooCommerce products.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Payment Gateway<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Unless you\u2019re giving your products away for free, you\u2019ll need to take payments! To do this you\u2019ll need something called a payment gateway.<\/p>\n<p>WooCommerce comes with a couple of payment gateways built in, including PayPal. Most of the other options, such as check and payment on delivery, aren\u2019t especially useful for an online store.<\/p>\n\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Start selling with WooCommerce today!<\/strong><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WooCommerce Want to grow your business by selling products online?\u00a0Adding WooCommerce to WordPress\u00a0will be your best option. \u00a0It\u2019s a\u00a0free WordPress plugin\u00a0with additional features available as extensions.
