What is involved in selling things online? (e-commerce)

There are many options out there for e-commerce websites. WordPress/WooCommerce, Shopify, 3d Cart, Big Commerce, and many more. We have experience working with the most popular ones. They all have their advantages and disadvantages. While WooCommerce is free to download, there are many paid add-ons required to start selling products online. You will need a merchant account, a payment processor, an SSL certificate, and a fast website host. Prices can vary based on how many products you want to sell. Some companies will provide product feeds that can be uploaded to the website to save time and money.
