Sell Online Without Learning WooCommerce

You want to sell a few products online, but every guide you find says to learn WooCommerce first. You don’t have to.

Two ways to start

  • Website Builder Online Store. A simpler route. No WordPress to learn. The store lists it at $23.99 a month.
  • WordPress Hosting Ultimate. More room to grow, and it adds WooCommerce selling. The store lists it at $16.99 a month.

Those are list prices, before taxes and fees, so check the plan page for what you’d pay today.

Pick in four steps

  1. Count your products. A handful of items points to the builder. A big catalog points to WordPress.
  2. Write down how you’ll ship. One flat rate is simple. Lots of shipping rules get complicated fast.
  3. Ask yourself if you want to learn WordPress at all. If the honest answer is “not really,” start with the builder.
  4. Read the plan page for your pick. It lists exactly what’s included, so you won’t be guessing.

A simple rule

Start with the simplest tool that fits the store you have today, not the store you hope to have in five years. You can always move to something bigger later.

Before you launch

  • Place a test order yourself, start to finish.
  • Check that the confirmation email arrives.
  • Look at your store on your phone.
