Shopify - Who uses it

[Paullas]

As title, is anyone using Shopify. I having been looking at using it for a few sites i have in mind and just wondering how easy is it to monetise/gain traffic traction.

I have always used WordPress and have dabbled with Shopify in the past but just to mess around and nothing too serious on sites.

Any pointers/tips most welcome.

Thanks

Paul

I’ve used both, Shopify is really easy to use but you’re handcuffed to their pricing and apps.

I find WooCommerce to be complicated and difficult to use in comparison but Wordpress is simpler and you can easily get free apps for SEO etc.

Shopify is doing £1 a month for 3 months so i have signed up to test the water, 3 month should give me enough time to know if i want to continue with it.

I agree WC is sometimes clumsy but WP is more SEO friendly, Shopify apps i am trying to stay clear of the paid apps for now and just run on a flat system but who knows if it takes off then it might pay for itself.

I already use WP and have been building sites using it for years.

Shopify i had a client ask me about it so want to get back into it before i decide if i want to take on the work.
