For anyone who starts researching on how to create an online store, the myriad of options seem overwhelming at first. There are literally hundreds of pre-built e-commerce packages available, most of which promise to get the user "running in a matter of minutes". Unfortunately, they also promise to separate the shop owner from hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. On the other hand, one can also find a few free e-commerce platforms. While most ofthese are promising, the free cost platform often carries a high price tag in terms of greater complexity or time wasted in learning the ropes of a new platform.
This brings us to WordPress. Not only is it a popular package for building a standard website, but it can also serve as a powerful e-commerce platform with the addition of the WordPress (WP) e-Commerce plugin. Thousands of people have already chosen to use WordPress as the foundation for their online stores, and there are many
reasons why you should as well. Yes, WordPress is free, and yes, it's easy to use, but it's also easy to modify and update. Extending the capabilities of WordPress is a breeze, and you certainly do not need a team of developers to get your store up and running.
