First off, if you haven’t watched the first 2 videos in this series, you can click one below:
If you already have a WordPress site up and running, you can probably skip the first two videos in the series and go right into this one.
*And, like I talked about in the first video in this series, if you don’t have a web host yet you can check out Bluehost . Yes, it is an affiliate link, and I do make a commission if you sign up using that link (thank you in advance if you do!), but I have been with them for over 8 years and they have been great!
In this video, How to Setup Woocommerce in WordPress, I will take you through installing a theme that works well with Woocommerce called Storefront. It is a free theme made specifically to work with Woocommerce. I decided to switch themes after the second video since this theme works much more smoothly with the Woocommerce plugin and I wanted to make things as simple as possible for you!
I will also walk you through installing the Woocommerce plugin and setting it up to get ready to start selling your products! I go through most of the setup, except for shipping. We will talk about setting up shipping in the 4th video.
Since this is the first time I’ve done a series like this, I am not certain how many more videos there will be, but I am anticipating 2 more before we are done and ready to start getting traffic to your store!
Some things I still need to cover in the next couple videos:
- Setting up shipping with real time shipping costs
- Adding useful widgets
- Customizing site colors, background and text
- Adding header image/logo
- Cleaning up any other loose ends!
I hope these videos are helping get your website/web store up and running, and please let me know if you have questions or if I’ve left anything out! I can take constructive criticism too 🙂 It will help me learn how I can improve future videos.
Thanks for watching, and if you like these videos, please be sure to click over to Youtube and click like on the video, as well as subscribing to my channel if you haven’t already!
