    Question Easy to start the e-commerce store? Who is more reliable to....?

    WooCommerce & Ecommerce Platform, which one do you more prefer?

    What is WooCommerce?
    I think everyone will know this plugin if you are familiar with WordPress, it is a free WordPress plugin, that adds an e-commerce function, run small to medium-sized online store easily.
    Pros:
    It’s totally free, if plus the extensions are mostly reasonably priced, all you have to do is install the WooCommerce plugin on your WordPress, and your store will be set up and running at a low cost.
    WooCommerce has unlimited customization options, powerful features that help you create your store in your own style. Otherwise, WordPress is a huge community, freely moves your site, also be a point that can increase your SEO ranking.
    Cons:
    Because it is a WordPress plugin, unless you are familiar with WordPress, you will struggle with the installation and maintenance, even build your business site.

    What is an eCommerce Platform?
    It is an online business application, that allows online retailers to manage their online stores such as website, sales, marketing, and even operation through the app.
    Pros:
    The platform makes it very easy to build an online store from scratch, end-to-end from hosting, security, and quickly launch your store, everything you need is just to create the account, this is much easy for beginners who have no coding skills or any technical skills.
    The maintenance cost is paid per month depending on your solution, so you can know exactly the fee you need to pay every month.
    Most eCommerce platforms have great support with their own customer service team.
    Besides that, your store can also sell on Amazon, eBay, Facebook as its build-in feature.
    Cons:
    You don’t have much control over your site, because your site is worked on their platform so if it racks up the bill, this means that you have no choice to cancel the subscribe unless you think about stopping running your store then start to launch it again with other platforms. Otherwise, if these platforms cannot continue to operate, all your business has gone with them. This is the point you must seriously consider for your long plan before getting started your online store.

    DO YOU HAVE YOUR ANSWER? Find a reliable hosting provider to host your site or subscribe to the e-commerce platform plans?

    There are numerous best web hosting providers available on the internet.
    You are looking for a web hosting provider for your eCommerce store then you should be very careful because all your future online presence and business fully depends on which type of hosting services they provide.
    So, while choosing the web hosting provider for your eCommerce site or online store, I think should keep some points in your mind, like it should reliable, it has a 24/7 technical support team, should able to solve all the issues, no downtime, etc. VPS and cloud hosting is always the best options to host an eCommerce website.
    I hope this will help you to find a reliable webhosting provider that fulfils all your requirements.

    I, too, when I opened my store, encountered some difficulties from the web hosting providers available on the net. I also used this platform in the early stages of my work with the store. But then I switched to the marketplace, as these sites are more reliable. And besides, my sales turnover there has increased. Over time, I've learned that the most reliable platforms are the ones that have proven themselves over a long period of time. Speaking of sales, I found useful tool that help track this at a fantastic rate, for example, I use salesforce inbox pricing. It helps a lot in my work.

    Although there are notable differences in starting an e-commerce business compared with starting a brick-and-mortar business
    The first step in learning how to start an e-commerce business is performing the necessary research
    Once you've solidified the plan for your e-commerce business, the next step is to choose a name. Like any other business, you'll want to choose a name that's unique, but also that clearly indicates what your business is or does. You'll likely want to consult your local secretary of state's website
    Next, you'll want to apply for an EIN, or employer identification number, for your e-commerce business.

    It's only hard until you start it, then you will find how by going step by step. You just need to have a general idea of what you want, split it into small pieces of how to get it, and then focus on each aspect in part. Promoting your business is also important, because if you don't have customers your business won't survive. A good website is they key to success, and using an eCommerce service could be a very nice idea, to have a clear looking website and without any software problems.

    When looking for a eCommerce hosting provider, there are several features to keep in mind. These features may include: the provider's capabilities, the customer service team, security and performance measures, and pricing. It is important to research each provider thoroughly before making a decision, as there are many excellent choices available.
