  • Making your own webshop these days is easy. My name is Ferdy and in this video I will

  • show you, from start to finish, how to create your own web shop using WordPress and WooCommerce.

  • This video is both for people that already have a wordpress website and want to extend

  • it with a webshop, and for people that want to create a webshop from scratch, who do not

  • have a website yet.

  • Let me show you what we will cover in this tutorial. For the people that start from scratch,

  • I will show you how you can get your own domain name and web hosting, how to install WordPress,

  • and how to install a pre-made website that can be adjusted really easily. After that,

  • we will install WooCommerce --- an amazing free plug-in that enables you to sell products

  • through the Internet. Then we will create six different products. We start with a simple

  • product - just a hoodie. It can also be a cap, something with only one option; in this

  • case, a black hoodie.

  • Then we go to the variable product. What does that mean? It is one product but it can have

  • different variations like the size or the color. It can also say that a certain size

  • or color or something else is more expensive than the other options. Then we will create

  • a digital product, for instance a zoom session or coaching session. We will create a digital

  • downloadable product like an e-book or a ticket to a concert of Justin Bieber or someone else

  • if you prefer.

  • Then an affiliate product. This is a really nice market. You can promote other people's

  • products, and when they click on it, they go to your affiliate link and then when they

  • buy the product you promote, you get a commission. And then the latest one --- a grouped product

  • so you see one product again with different sizes and here I can decide how many I want

  • to have from everything. For each product, we will talk about the configuration options

  • like the price, inventory, categories. After that, you will learn how to configure the

  • shop page; how many columns should it have; how big should the images be, and then here

  • at the side we have a sidebar with widgets and widgets are extra functionalities to your

  • website. So here I can filter the products by price, so if I say, let's see, I want to

  • spend between 0 and 100 dollars and I filter it, then I see all the products that fall

  • into that category.

  • People can get through our categories. We have products on sale and if we add something

  • to the cart, there appears a new widget over here. It shows a subtotal amount and everything

  • we have in our cart. The same is available over here. So if I hover over here, I see

  • that and then I can view the cart or go to the checkout. If I view the cart, we see a

  • beautiful overview over here with everything we have in our cart and I can adjust it over

  • here. I can change this to 3, this one to 2, and I can update the cart. If we scroll

  • down, we see a subtotal over here and because this is the amount more than $100, I decided

  • that the shipping is free. We will talk about shipping based on where people live, based

  • on a subtotal of the cart and based on the weight of everything that is in the cart.

  • We will talk about coupon codes, so I made this $20 dollars and if I apply the coupon,

  • I see we get 20 dollars of discount and here there are a lot of options. You can say by

  • the $20 dollars, you can say percentage, free shipping -- we will go in depth about this

  • subject. We will talk about my favorite subject, not, but it's good to talk about it --- Taxes.

  • How you can set it up manually with different countries, states, normal and reduced tax

  • rates and I will show you how to apply these settings automatically, which is, in my opinion,

  • a much better option.

  • Then we will talk about payment methods so that visitors can go to the checkout page,

  • finish their order and pay money that will be added to your bank account. I will show

  • you how to handle incoming orders and keep your buyers up to date with the progress of

  • the order.

  • When you apply what I teach in this tutorial, you are able to start selling products through

  • the internet. Well I believe that your time is valuable, that's why, I created an overview

  • for you so you can skip certain parts if you have done them already.

  • If you're starting from scratch, I will show you how you can get your own domain name and

  • web hosting and I can offer you a 70% discount. Then we will install WordPress and after that

  • we will import a pre-made website. After that, we're going to create an amazing webshop and

  • if you have done step one. two and three already, take a look at this time stamp and then you

  • can immediately go to the WooCommerce part. In the description of the video I have time

  • stamps, so if you want to go to a certain part of the tutorial, you can click on the

  • timestamp and it will go directly to the part of the tutorial.

  • If I go too fast for you, you can slow down the speed of the video over here. I've been

  • making tutorials for over five years now and people seem to love my videos. I do my best

  • to get better and better, so I can reach more people with my teachings. If you have any

  • question or feedback, feel free to leave a comment below the video. If you like what

  • you're seeing so far, or you think I'm a nice guide, please like this video; subscribe for

  • more upcoming WordPress related videos and when you hit the bell icon next to the subscribe

  • button, you get a notification when I upload a new video. So having said that let's get

  • started.

  • The first things we need are: a domain name and web hosting. If you have that already

  • that is great then you can skip this part. If you don't have it, let's go to webhosting124.com.

  • Then you can click over here to go to siteground is, in my opinion, the best web hosting provider

  • there is. I tried a lot of web hosting companies and I found out that siteground is the best

  • one, and it's not only my opinion that they are the best, there's a Facebook group all

  • about web hosting and every year there's a poll with who is the best web hosting provider

  • and siteground is number one every year.

  • The web sites here are super fast, you can call them 24/7 or you can open a chat session

  • with them. I had a few times that I had no idea how to figure something out and then

  • I went to the chat session and within a few minutes they were able to help me. At the

  • chat they can say you should do this and this and this, but they often say let me do it

  • for you if you want to. So the support is amazing. Because Siteground believes in their

  • product and their service, they offer you a 30-day money back guarantee. So if you somehow

  • do not like it, you can get your money back. So there's no risk for you. I don't think

  • you will cancel within 30 days. It's amazing to get a domain name or web hosting through

  • siteground. I host all my websites here and I will walk you through the plans.

  • There are three plans. There's the StartUp Plan, the GrowBig Plan and the GoGeek plan.

  • The startup package is $3.95 per month. In euros, it's the same €3.95. You can have

  • one website, that means one domain, then there's 10 gigabyte of web space which is more than

  • enough and 10,000 visits per month which is also more than enough when you start. You

  • can install WordPress for free --- there's free SSL. What is SSL? With that, your website

  • becomes secure. With other web hosting companies, you need to pay money for that. There's even

  • one where you need to pay $120 per year to get as a SSL. With Siteground it is free.

  • You can have free email addresses like info@yourdomain or ferdy@yourdomain or your own name and your

  • domain, and daily backups. So if you mess up somehow, you can go to the backup of the

  • day before and you're good to go.

  • Then there's the GrowBig plan -- $5.95/month or €6.45 per month. With this plan you can

  • have unlimited websites. What does it mean? Here we can have one website, so one domain.

  • Here it can have unlimited domains, so when you get the web hosting package of $5.95 per

  • month you can buy ten domain names and then create different websites. So that's the great

  • thing about the GrowBig plan. You can have more space, you can have more visitors and

  • if you scroll down a bit, you see, you can have on-demand backups. So you push the button

  • and you get a new backup. If you already have a website, you can have a free site transfer

  • to siteground. You can have staging so you can change things in your website and then

  • push one button and then it goes to the live website. If you want to know more about all

  • these options, you hover over here and you can see them.

  • So what I love the most about the GrowBig plan is that you can have unlimited websites,

  • and then there's the GoGeek plan -- 11.95 dollars or euros and you have more web space,

  • you can have more visitors and there are all those extra options. I personally use this

  • plan because I have a lot of websites and a lot of visitors. But when you're creating

  • your first website, you can choose between the Startup plan and the GrowBig plan. I will

  • go for the GrowBig plan. So I click over here on "Get Plan", and now we can register a new

  • domain name. If you have a domain name already, you can click over here, you can fill in yourdomainname.com

  • and then proceed. I want to register a new domain name and I can choose it over here.

  • So I can say ferdykorpwp (WordPress) and then there's extensions. You can say ".com", ".net"

  • but there are also countering specific extensions like .nl, like .pl, the .co.uk, .es. If you

  • want to go international, I prefer .com, not .net or those other ones, just .com. So be

  • creative, make sure it is available, if it's not available you click on proceed, you will

  • see it is not available. The domain costs $15.95 per month, €14.95 per month and I

  • click on proceed. That says "Congratulations! Domain ferdykorpwp is available for registration

  • with our hosting account." That is amazing!

  • So now, I want to fill in some details over here. I want to leave my best email address

  • over here which is ferdykorp@gmail.com; I need to create a password and I need to confirm

  • my password. Then we scroll down a bit and we go to client information. So first you

  • need to select your country, then your first name, and your last name. If you have a company,

  • you can fill in the details of your company. If you're from the United States, you need

  • to select your state or province, your city, your street address, your zip code and your

  • phone number.

  • Then I scroll down and I go to payment information. So I will fill in my details over here and

  • the great thing is, depending on the country where you live in, their local payment option.

  • So if you're from the Netherlands, you have Ideal, if you're from another country, you

  • can pay with your local payment provider which is what I love about Siteground. My billing

  • address is the same as given in the contact information. I scroll down. We've chosen the

  • GrowBig plan; you can choose your data center --- I choose the USA. If you want to focus

  • on people from Europe or the United Kingdom, you can choose something else. I'll choose

  • the USA. This is important. Here it says period: 12 months. REMEMBER, you get 70% discount

  • here at Siteground but it's only for the first payment period. So if you pay for 12 months,

  • you get a 70% discount for 12 months. If you choose 24 months you get 70% of 24 months.

  • If you choose 36, you get 70% discount on 36 months. The thing is when you say 36 months

  • you need to pay now. So you pay $214.20 and then you have three years of web hosting with

  • the GrowBig plan where you can have unlimited domain names. If you will go for 12 months,

  • then after 12 months, you will start to pay $19.95. I want to be upfront about that.

  • So if you're really sure you want to go for a long time with this domain, then I would

  • suggest you go for the 36 months. If you want to try it out, do a shorter period; then I

  • would say go with 12 months, and after a year, you start paying $19.95 per month depending

  • on the plan. It's not entirely true, because after your first period, you can decide to

  • go for three years with siteground web hosting and then you get 30% of discount. So then

  • you would pay around $14 per month with GrowBig, and $7 per month with the startup plan.

  • If I take a look at what a website means for a business, I know it is worth every penny.

  • So it's up to you, if you want to go for 12 months, 24 months or 36 months. I go with

  • 12 months and then we go to the next step. We register a domain name and then I also

  • suggest you get domain privacy. Why is that? If you don't do this, people will see all

  • this information you have filled in on this page and they will call you, they will email

  • you like hey I can make your website, you can have a business loan if you want to; people

  • start spamming you. You don't want that. For $12 per year, you can get rid of that. You

  • don't need the Siteground scanner, so there's a total of $99.35 and you have a domain name

  • and website for a year. I think this is an amazing deal.

  • What you can do now? You confirm that you've read and agreed to the Siteground Terms of

  • Service and Privacy Policy and you can check this if you want to receive Siteground news

  • and special offers by email. When you get there through webhosting124.com, you don't

  • pay more, but you get the 70 percent discount and I get credit for it. So it's a win-win

  • situation and it helps me to make those tutorials. So thank you for that. I click on 'Pay Now'

  • and now ladies and gentlemen, you have a domain name and web hosting --- congratulations.

  • The next step is to install WordPress. Click on this button with the text 'Proceed to the

  • Customer Area'. And then we see this: Create or Migrate Your Website and then you see your

  • domain name. We click on this orange button to set up our site and here we can start a

  • new WordPress website.

  • So I click on the button below: Start a New Website. Then I choose WordPress even when

  • you want to start a WooCommerce website, still choose WordPress and now we need to set up

  • a login. Here you need to fill in your best email address and create a password. So I

  • will use ferdykorp@gmail.com and my password. Awesome!

  • Then I click on continue. I don't need the site scanner; I have that already. I click

  • on: Finish, and now our website is being created. It will take less than 2 minutes. It says

  • now that your domain has been created and WordPress is installed.

  • So what I want to do now, I want to go to a website. Here's my website and I click on:

  • Site Tools. I want to do one more thing before we go to our WordPress website. I want to

  • make it secure. So here we are at your domain and then there are a lot of options over here.

  • What we can do now, we can click on security and then we click on SSL manager. Our request

  • is being processed.

  • So here you can select your domain, if you have one it's probably already selected. Select

  • SSL and what it says, it's already encrypted. So I need to scroll down, here it is: Manage

  • SSL. My domain already has an encryption certificate. I click on Actions > Enforce HTTPS. I click

  • over here and I need to turn this on and now it's turned on; that's it.

  • So now; what I want to do? I want to go to WordPress > Install and manage. I scroll down.

  • Here we have our domain name, WordPress is installed and I want to take an action by

  • clicking here: Login to the Admin Panel, and we are already logged in.

  • What we need to do now, we need to skip the WordPress starter. So I scroll down and I

  • click on exit, and ladies and gentlemen, we are live. This is the back end of our website.

  • Here we can configure a ton of things. If I click over here, left in top, I go to my

  • website. Everybody that enters FerdyKorpWP.com at this moment will enter my website, and

  • that's a great thing about Siteground, you are live immediately when you get a dot com

  • domain. BUT it looks really bad; it looks really bad. I don't know what do you think

  • about this, but I think this is so ugly.

  • So we're going to make it beautiful but first let me tell you some things about the front

  • end and the back end. This is the front end of your WordPress website; this is what people

  • will see when they enter your website. So we've created a beautiful webshop, people

  • can navigate through your website over here through your domain name. Because we are logged

  • in. We have a bar over here. If I go to FerdyKorp.com, I see no bar. Why? Because I'm not logged

  • in.

  • But here, I am logged in and that's why I see this bar. Through this bar we can toggle

  • between the frontend and the backend. So if I click over here, I go to the backend. Here

  • we can configure our website. We can update our website or plugins, we can create blog

  • posts, add photos, videos, PDFs. We can create pages like the home page, the Contact page,

  • the About Us page. We can manage comments, change the look and feel of our website using

  • themes and widgets. We can add functionality to our website by free or paid plugins.

  • We can add different users; we can export things and import things. We can configure

  • the settings of our website and then if you have a plug-in you can get more options over

  • here. So if I take a look at my own website, I can do a few updates. I have comments I

  • need to manage. There's marketing; jet plugins; more plugins. So the more plugins you have,

  • the more things you see over here and if you click on it, you can configure things. So

  • that's the backend. We're going to talk about it more.

  • Then we have the frontend and that looks like this. So what I want to do? First, I want

  • to clean up our website a little bit because it starts a little bit messy and I want to

  • work in a clean environment.

  • So I click over here. By the way, I can close this now. So this is the back end. What I

  • want to do first? I want to go to plugins and I want to remove all the plugins we have.

  • We want to start from scratch. So I click over here. So I select all the plugins, bulk

  • action. First, deactivate them; click on: Apply. When they are deactivated, I can select

  • them again all by clicking here, Bulk actions > Delete > Apply --- yes I'm sure.

  • Then I want to go to the pages; click over here; select all the pages we have; Bulk actions

  • > Move to the Trash > Apply.

  • Now we can empty the trash by going to the trash over here and empty the trash. Same

  • goes for posts. There no posts. Only one in the trash. I want to get rid of it. I empty

  • the trash.

  • Then I go to the dashboard. I want to dismiss this message and close everything. It looks

  • better already. What I see over here? It says, "Howdy, ferdykorp@gmail.com" and I want to

  • show my name over here. How can I do that? Here I want to edit my profile I can do that

  • also over here at users, your profile, it goes to the same page and here we can configure

  • our profile.

  • So I can change the look and feel of our back end. I like the default one. My username is

  • this one, I cannot change it but I can add my first name, my last name, and I can have

  • a nickname and over here, it says display name publicity as Ferdy Korpershoek or you

  • can choose a different combination, and then you see "Howdy, Ferdy Korpershoek".

  • What I would like to add is an image over here, how can I do that? Well you need to

  • have a Gravatar account for that. If I scroll down, I can see that over here. You can change

  • your profile picture on Gravatar. So right mouse click > open a new tab and here I can

  • sign in. If I leave an email address that is the same as this one: ferdykorp@gmail.com,

  • I will have an image over here. Well, I have an account already at info@ferdykorpershoek.com,

  • so if I change it and I update it here below, I need to confirm it, so I will do that. I

  • click over here and I confirm it. I can scroll down again, I can add some personal information

  • about myself. I am 33 years of age. I am married to Anna. But I prefer that you write something

  • that has to do with this website. So if I create a webshop, I would like to say "For

  • years, I have been selling good products." And you can have your own price. I use Grammarly.

  • It can make your text better.

  • You can generate the new password over here and then you can update it. So I cancel this;

  • I don't need it. If I click on update, I see my name and I see my image which I like. Then

  • I want to go to settings; permalinks over here and I want to use post name. That means

  • that your domains look beautiful; your URLs. So if you have a product that's called iPhone,

  • it will say ferdykorp.com/iphone instead of a code like this and also Google likes it

  • when you have post name over here, because then you will rank better in the Google results.

  • Well one more important thing.

  • If I go to Settings > General, we can give our site a name; site title. And the site

  • title is really important for the Google search results. So you can say PS5 equipment, if

  • that's what your website is about. Use a few important keywords for your website. So iPhone

  • cases or environment friendly iPhone cases --- whatever that means. I created site title

  • and don't say "My Webshop", because people will not find you when they search for my

  • webshop. So I can say PS5 tools. Tagline --- in a few words, explain what this site is about.

  • We have the best PS5 equipment to give you an amazing gaming experience. Or PS5 tools

  • | Chargers | Stickers. Whatever.

  • Since our website is secure, you can also make it secure over here. Make sure your website

  • is secure, otherwise, you can have an error. So I made my website secure. I showed you

  • how and then I put an S after the P. I scroll down and I click on: save the changes. Now

  • I need to log in again and then over here, I can change the date May 21, 2020 or the

  • time format. I like it as it is and I click on "save the changes." Now if I take a look

  • at the website, I really don't like it. So how can we change it?

  • Well first we can change the theme, and maybe you think what is a theme? Let me show you

  • -- if I go to the back end, I can go to Appearance > Themes. The themes determine the look and

  • feel of your website. So you have the same information -- so if I take a look at the

  • website. I hold CMD or CTRL on a PC and I click over here. I see the website; I see

  • the title; I see the subtitle. If I change the theme -- so 2019 for instance instead

  • of 2020, and I refresh the page, the look and feel is different but the title is still

  • there, and the subtitle is also still there.

  • So a different example -- Activate 2017 > Refresh and now it looks totally different. So the

  • content stays the same with the theme, but the look and feel changes. So I've done my

  • research and one of the best themes out there that is free is the Estra theme. If you want

  • to take a look at it, let's go to FerdyKorp.com/estra, hit enter and there's a pro version and there's

  • a free version and we're going to take a look at the free version. We're going to use a

  • free version. Here's a pro version. I've tutorials about all those things. There's a discount.

  • But we're going to work with the free version. You can download it over here or you go to

  • the backend of your website, to Appearance > Themes > Add new and then search for Estra

  • and then I click on install and then we can activate it. So if I take a look in a new

  • tab holding command, a theme changes the look and feel but every theme also has their own

  • configuration options, and those what's our theme are amazing. And there are more great

  • things I will talk about it in a minute.

  • The second thing I want to do. I want to take a look at the page builder we are going to

  • use. In order to get it, let's go to FerdyKorp.com/elementor. Elementor is by far the best page builder

  • there is when I talk about free page builders. There's also pro version here which is really

  • amazing. I have tutorials about those but again, in this tutorial, I want to focus on

  • free things, free tools. Look at this --- this how easy it is. Just drag-and-drop things,

  • and we're going to use this page builder to create a beautiful web shop.

  • You can download it or again, you can go to the backend of your website, go to Plugins

  • > Add new and then search for Elementor and there it is. I want to click on "Install now"

  • and then I want to activate it. So I can close this and I can close this. What I want to

  • do now? I want to make use of a pre-made website, that is made for free that we can install

  • in a few clicks. In order to do that, we can go to the dashboard and you see this area

  • over here. If you don't see that, no problem. If I close it over here and here, I can go

  • to Appearance and since the Estra theme is active, we have Estra options over here. I

  • click on it and then over here, I see Import Starter Template. I click on Install Importer

  • Plugin, and right now it's importing and activating. Then we need to select the page builder we

  • use -- we use Elementor. Now we can install tons of pre-made websites in a few clicks

  • and those are amazing. Some are for the agency version of Astra, but most are for the free

  • ones. So how can we use it? We can just click over and now we can import this complete website

  • for free. So that's amazing. What I can do? I can go back. I can filter everything so

  • I can say I only want to have ecommerce websites, and I only want to work with Elementor. Since

  • I've selected Elementor, I need to select this again, ecommerce, and I want to go for

  • all the free ones. So we can choose between six pre-made websites.

  • So what you can do now, we can take a look at everything -- this one for instance. You

  • see there are three pages and you can import those pages completely. So if you see something

  • you like, I like to have light background, something like this or this or this, and I

  • want to go with this one. So I click over here and I want to import all those pages,

  • so I want to import a complete website with a home page that looks like that, an about

  • page and a contact page.

  • In order to do that, I click on import complete website. I click here and it can take a few

  • minutes and before we need to select a few things. Keep in mind that this will overwrite

  • your current website. Well, since we work with a new website, I can do this. But, if

  • you already have a complete website, do not do this. I click on import and it says it

  • can take between 2 and 10 minutes. In my case, it often takes a minute. So I have to wait

  • for a minute and then I will be back with you. Imported successfully! Hurray! The website

  • is imported successfully. Now I can click on View the Site. Keep in mind, it can take

  • a while before your website is shown correct. Well, in my case, it's the case already. So

  • this is our imported website, it looks beautiful and we also have products over here. We can

  • go to the shop, it looks so beautiful. Also if we go to All Products over here, we see

  • our shop, we can filter things, Sort on Popularity. If I click over here, it looks beautiful.

  • We can add it to the cart. We can have related products. We can have reviews and if I click

  • on "Add to Cart," I can view the cart. I can proceed to the checkout. We can enter our

  • details.

  • We will talk about shipping, about Taxes, about payment methods but this is already

  • made for us. If I click over here, I go to the cart and if I go to a different page and

  • I hover over this area, you see what you have in your cart and then can go view the cart

  • and go to the checkout. So this is all amazing, but not everybody is starting a website from

  • scratch like I show you now.

  • So what we're going to do -- it's a little bit crazy. We're going to remove WooCommerce

  • again because I want to show you how to create a website from scratch. And if you already

  • have a website and you don't want to make use of the starter templates from Estra then

  • I want to show you what to do.

  • So what I will do now. I will go to Pages. I click on date and I remove the shop page,

  • my account, checkout and cart. I select them all, move to the trash. Even if you use starter

  • templates, I suggest you follow along because I want to show you from scratch how to install

  • WooCommerce. I go to the trash, empty the trash, and then I go to Products > All Products.

  • Bulk actions. Select them all bulk actions, we move it to the trash. Now they're all in

  • the trash. I will leave them there, I do not empty the trash. Then I want to go to the

  • Categories, check them all, Delete, Apply. Same goes for Tags, we have no Tags so that's

  • great. Then I want to go to Plugins > Deactivate this one > Deactivate WooCommerce and then

  • I want to delete commerce. Yes I'm sure. A little bit crazy at first, we installed it,

  • now we deleted it.

  • I want to show you from scratch how to create a webshop. So now if I go website, there's

  • no shop anymore, there's only this area. I scroll down and there are no products anymore.

  • So we have removed the Products, we've removed the categories, we have removed the WooCommerce.

  • Now it's the time to create a WooCommerce website from scratch. So maybe you have this

  • website imported or you have a website yourself.

  • Now you need to go to the dashboard. I go to plugins add new and I want to search for

  • WooCommerce. There it is. More than 5 million installations, 18 hours ago it was updated

  • for the last time, it's compatible with the current version of WordPress --- this is an

  • amazing plugin. A lot of good reviews.

  • I click on Install Now and then I click on activate. I don't want to set up WooCommerce,

  • so if you see that please skip it. Then I want to go to WooCommerce > Status. Then I

  • go to Tools, I scroll down and I search for Create default WooCommerce pages. So I click

  • on create pages and now they are created.

  • So now if I go to the pages, they are added again from scratch. So what I want to do now,

  • if I take a look over here, I see no shop page. What I want to do, I want to add to

  • the shop page over here. So I hover over here and I go to menus, then I want to add the

  • shop page to the menu. I select it and I click on add to menu --- the main menu.

  • Then I want to drag it over here after or above contact. Account, I want to click over

  • here and remove that and I want to save the menu. Now, if I go to the website, it is over

  • here --- the shop page. No products were found matching your selection.

  • So I want to add a few products and if want to follow along in everything I do in this

  • tutorial, then you can download the images I use. In order to do that, go to ferdykorp.com/images,

  • hit enter and there they go. I click over here to unzip it and I want to drag them to

  • the desktop. Over here, folder 8 I have a few images for products I want to show on

  • my website. So I close it and I want to create my first product. I hover over new and I click

  • on product. There are six different kind of products you can create within WooCommerce

  • and I will show you step-by-step how it works. I hope you're going to like it. I like this

  • process. If you like what you are seeing so far then please like this video and subscribe

  • for more upcoming WordPress related videos. So the first product I want to add, here you

  • need to create product name. I will sell a hoodie, so really simple, I call this Hoodie.

  • If it's from a certain brand, you can say Nike Hoodie or whatever.

  • Then here we have the long description. Here you can say a lot of stuff about the product.

  • I will use some dummy text. So I search for dummy text generator over here. I copy this,

  • I place it over here. I use dummy text so I can show you or the client, how it will

  • look when they fill in their own text. Then we can scroll down and then we have product

  • data. If you don't see this go over here to the screen options and turn on product data.

  • That's really important. Actually, you need to check everything except for custom fields

  • and slug. So I scroll down again and there are a few different products and I want to

  • start with a simple product. What is the simple product? It is a product with only one option.

  • So you cannot choose a different size or color --- just a simple product. It's not virtual

  • and it's not downloadable. It's a physical product. So right now it says Pounds. So what

  • I want to do I want to create a price in dollars and then later change Pounds to Dollars. So

  • I think this is $19.95 but I'm in a good mood. I will create a sale price for $29.95. So

  • what I can do, I can publish it now. Click over here, Publish.

  • Now if I open the website in new tab holding CMD and clicking here, I can go to the shop

  • and there I have my product. It's a sale and there's no image yet. It's uncharacterized,

  • it's a hoodie, no reviews and it's almost 30 pounds.

  • I click over here to go to the product and this is how it looks, and here's the description.

  • So we're going to make this look so much better. So what I want to do? I want to change the

  • pounds to dollars, I can do it here in the backend, I go to WooCommerce settings and

  • then the first step general, I scroll down and I change the currency to dollar. Let me

  • see, USA Dollar --- United States Dollar. Currency position: Left; Thousand Separator:

  • a point; Decimal separator: point; Number of Decimals: 2. I save the changes. Now if

  • I want to edit my product, I can go to products over here, all products, hoodie and I can

  • continue to edit it. But I also want to show you. If I scroll down all the way. I see product

  • short description and then I can say this hoodie will make you popular amongst your

  • friends, and attract your favorite people in life. I met Justin Bieber by wearing this

  • hoodie.

  • Remember, always be honest when you type things over here in the short description. Here you

  • can say whatever you want, but please be honest over here. Now, I'm just talking stupid. I'm

  • updating it and let's take a look. The short description will appear over here. So now

  • we see dollars $29.95 and we can add it to the cart. So let's continue to configure this.

  • I scroll down again.

  • One more thing about the sale. Over here, we have the sale price, you can also schedule

  • it. So you can say the sale price is only valid from today until the 31st. After that,

  • we'll have the normal price again. We can go from the General tab to Inventory. Here's

  • a SKU, you can also take a look over here what does it mean. It's a stock keeping unit

  • with a unique identifier. So if I would sell a Nike hoodie, this one for instance, then

  • it has a special code somewhere -- this one. Copy it and then I can paste it over here.

  • Why? If I do that and people want to buy this, but it's out of stock, they can search based

  • on their SKU number. That's what I will do to find it somewhere else, and then you can

  • find your shop over here and people can buy it, you become so rich that you don't know

  • what to do with your money. But then you can give it away to other people so you get a

  • fulfilled life. Help other people and enjoy your life. Yeah that's how things can go.

  • Do we want to manage the stock? Enable stock management at product level. Yes, that means

  • you can say how many you have in stock. So if you buy 50, you can show them I have 50

  • in stock, and do we want to allow back orders? That means if you're out of stock, can people

  • still buy it? If you say do not allow -- it's not possible. You can say allow, but notify

  • the customer.

  • So you can say 'Thank you for your purchase, but we order them ourselves because they're

  • out of stock so it can take a little bit longer.' Or you just say "Allow" it and make sure you

  • buy enough new ones so you always have stock.

  • You can also have a low stock threshold, that means if they're only ten less for instance,

  • you get an email like "Hey! There are only ten of those hoodies in stock," and then you

  • can purchase new ones.

  • You can say sell individually, if you check it, people can only buy one at the same time

  • -- one per session. So if I refresh it, you cannot decide the amount anymore, you can

  • only say add to cart. That's handy when it comes to digital products like ebooks or a

  • zoom session where you only want to sell a maximum of one hour. Then you can say that

  • you can only add one. Otherwise, people can buy 5 hours of zoom session from you and maybe

  • you don't want that.

  • So inventory, we talked about it, and then we can go to shipping. We will talk about

  • shipping later. Right now we can leave a weight, right now says kilograms and centimeters.

  • You can also change it here. Again, let me go to WooCommerce, where are you, settings

  • and then if I go to products, I can scroll down and I can change the weight unit to lbs

  • or oz. Dimensions: inch. Save it changes. But I prefer kilograms and centimeters. Save

  • it. Products. And we go back to the hoodie.

  • So I go to shipping and I say this one is 0.5 kilograms and I leave the length for what

  • it is. Shipping class - we'll talk about it later. Then we go to linked products, you

  • can do upsells. So that looks likes this. You have a product and then below the product

  • it says "Maybe you also like this product as well." You can decide which products they

  • are, but right now we don't have products yet. And Cross-sells is when you go, if you

  • add this to the cart, you view the cart, you can add a cross-sell over here, which is also

  • like this. I'll talk about later. Right now, let's go to attributes this is also for a

  • variable product. So we're going to skip this for now. We can go to advanced purchase note.

  • So "Thank you for purchasing this hoodie. Soon you will meet your favorite person on

  • earth when you wear this."

  • Menu order - that means if you have a cart over here, you have a few different products

  • which products should be on top. I'll leave it as it is. And people can leave a review.

  • So if I go to the hoodie, over here there's a second tab and I can leave a review with

  • stars, leave a comment and leave my review. Then, get more options. I will leave this

  • for what it is. So I click on update and if I refresh the page, we still have this one.

  • So I want to uncheck it. I go to inventory, uncheck it, update, and now we can add more

  • than one. So if I say eight, I add them to the cart, I view the cart and we have a total

  • of nine because I had one already. So enough about this, about the short description. Let's

  • add our own review. I can say, "This hoodie changed my life. I have so many real friends

  • now!" Add a comment. I save it, just to make sure.

  • Then I go to the hoodie and I have a review over here -- this hoodie changed my life.

  • I have so many real friends now!

  • I can also leave a review. There's additional information -- the weight. So it's getting

  • better and better. Now I want to take a look at an image because it looks so much better

  • with an image. So I go to the products, I scroll down all the way and here at the right,

  • there is Product Image. You can have one product image over here. So I click on set product

  • image, and I can use free images from Pixabay, but I want to upload files by clicking on

  • this tab. I select files and I want to select all the files of folder eight. So I say CMD

  • + A, open them and then one is selected and I can copy the title and paste it in the alt

  • text, that's good for the search results so I can do it with everything. Remove the dashes;

  • copy it; paste it.

  • So I go to the hoodie, the front one and I click on select or set product image. So now

  • if I update it, it looks so much better. It looks like this. I can click over here, I

  • can zoom in, scroll a bit. Beautiful!

  • I can also add different images here below at product gallery. So I want to add a few

  • different products. I click over here and I add this one in the back. Add to the gallery,

  • I want to change the order, update, refresh the page. Now there's this one and this one.

  • If I click over here, I can zoom in and I can navigate with the arrows and I think,

  • wow! that looks beautiful. And I can close it.

  • So what I see over here is home uncategorized hoodie. So I want to create a category and

  • if you have a big website, it comes really handy to have a category or categories and

  • subcategories. So let's talk about that.

  • I go to the product again. I scroll down and here you see the product categories. Right

  • now, it says uncategorized because every product needs to have at least one category, and here

  • I can create a new category. So I click on add new category and I call this one "Hoodies."

  • Add a new category, I'll check this, so that's perfect. But what I also can do, I can create

  • a subcategory. So I can make hoodie a subcategory of something different. For instance, merchandise.

  • Well, right now I cannot make this subcategory of merchandise. But if I click on update,

  • and I go to products categories, I see hoodies over here. I can click on it and I can say

  • parent category is merchandise. I can also upload something from merchandise. So let

  • me do that. So every category can have an image. Update. Now, if I go back to the product,

  • I can also go here to the product, edit product, close this. You see over here, merchandise

  • and subcategories - hoodie.

  • So I will have a new category. Add new category. I say "T-Shirts" and then here I can say,

  • Merchandise is the parent. Add a new category and there it is. I uncheck t-shirts because

  • this is not a t-shirt, but that's how you can work with categories and then below there

  • are tags.

  • Actually it's the same but not with a child, but not with subcategories, just tag. So if

  • this have something to do with a hoodie, I can type hoodie -- it is black. So I add black.

  • It's for the winter, I guess, I add winter. Some words that have something to do with

  • the hoodie. I can say Nike. So that's what you can do. I update it and I want to view

  • the product. Beautiful! And here you see categories.

  • The great thing about categories is when I click on hoodies, the category hoodies, I

  • see all the hoodies. So all the products that have the category hoodie will show over here.

  • Then you see home > merchandise > hoodies. But the same goes for merchandise. I will

  • talk about it when I will create a second product. Right now, I will leave it as this.

  • Let's go back to the product, scroll down and then there are a few Estra settings if

  • you use Estra theme. Every theme as its own settings. Estra theme will let you decide

  • if you want to have a sidebar for each individual product. So maybe I want to have a right sidebar

  • for this product. Then I can update it and now then I go to hoodie again and now my hoodie

  • has a right sidebar. There's nothing shown over here because we'll take a look at the

  • sidebar widget later, but that's what you can do for each individual product -- have

  • your own settings.

  • So maybe I say this product will not have a primary header, update, refresh and now

  • the header is gone. I will leave it as it was. Uncheck it, I can have transparent header

  • but I don't need it.

  • So that's my first product. I update it. It looks beautiful, and if I click on the shop,

  • I see it here shining and be happy and all that stuff. So that looks beautiful. Actually,

  • I want to do one more thing. I want to have a good rate. So what I can do, I can copy

  • this page, I go to Safari, I paste the link over here. So now I am a visitor. I'm not

  • logged in. I don't see the bar over here. I go to this product and I think I like this

  • product. I wear it and I have so many friends now. So I go to reviews and I want to add

  • a review with five stars, and I say I love this hoodie.

  • My name is Bernard, my email is bernardlovesjustinbieber@hotmail.com. Save my name, email... no. I submit it and

  • there it is -- "your review is waiting approval." Well I will approve it, because he mentioned

  • Justin Bieber. So I go over here. Comments -- a new comment; Approve. And now if I view

  • the product. It has two customer reviews, five stars and if I take a look over here,

  • it says I love this hoodie from Barnard. He doesn't have an avatar which is a shame because

  • all Barnards in the world should have an avatar in my opinion. You can also Google "should

  • all Bernards in the world have...", no. Let's continue with the tutorial with important

  • stuff.

  • So this is our first product. It looks beautiful and now we are going to create our second

  • product and we will take it a step further.

  • So our hover over new. I click on product and I close this. The name of the product

  • is a "T-Shirt" with a capital T. Then we can have a long description. We can have a short

  • description. I want to focus on product data. It's not a simple product but it's a variable

  • product and then I can say 0002 for instance. Do I want to keep stock? We've talked about

  • this so I will leave it as it is. I skip shipping, linked products and I go to attributes. I

  • want to add an attribute. What is an attribute? It's an option. So an option can be the size

  • of the T-Shirt and then I can enter some values over here.

  • So I start with S (small) | M (medium) | L (large) | XL (extra-large).

  • I want it to be visible on the product page and used for variations. So right now, I have

  • four different products. I have a small T-shirt, a medium T-shirt, a large T-shirt and a extra

  • large T-shirt. I save the attributes and I want to create a second attribute. Besides

  • the size, I want to talk about color. So again, I click on add and this time it is about color.

  • So the first one is white and the second one is black. I use it for variations and it is

  • visible on the product page and I click on save the attributes. So I have two attributes.

  • Size: 4 options, color: 2 options. A total amount of eight different options for our

  • variable product. Then I go to variations, and now I need to create variations based

  • on the attributes. So I click over here. I click on create variations from all attributes

  • and I click on go. I'm sure I want to do this and there's a maximum of 50 per run, but what

  • but we have only 8 so... And if you have 60, you can do it twice and then if all variations

  • you want. It is doing some calculations and 8 variations are added. Amazing.

  • I can expand them all by clicking here and I can give every variation individual information.

  • So I can say 0002A SKU and over here 0002B, 0002C, 0002D etc. If you want to do that,

  • you can give everything a different SKU.

  • I scroll up to the first one. So this is small and white, and I want to have a regular price

  • which is $19.95, and this has a point in the middle. The regular price for all. So I will

  • also paste it over here and here and here. Instead of doing it everywhere individually,

  • if all the prices are the same, I can click over here and I can set regular prices for

  • everything. If I click on go $19.95, I click on OK. Save the changes. So I expand them

  • again and now everything also below is $19.95.

  • And if it's not working, sometimes you need to do it the second time. So set the regular

  • prices, go and then again paste it and the second time it should be fine. So in my case,

  • it worked the first time. So what else? We can manage the stock and I think it's perfectly

  • fine. So what I want to do, a few more things. I want to add T-Shirts and merchandise to

  • the category. I want to add white t-shirt summer mode 2020. Add it. Then I want to add

  • a product image over here - the white front. And then I want to click on these images and

  • this one is white, so I select the white front and the black front. I don't know it's black,

  • it's quite dark, I can take a look over here it's front, white, white, black, white, and

  • black, white, black. Okay. I'm looking forward to show you how it looks now. I click on publish,

  • and now if I hold CMD when I click over here I can see the product over here.

  • So what we have over here is a t-shirt and great thing is you have to choose an option,

  • so you cannot say I did not choose the size because the size was by default small and

  • the color white. Now you need to choose it yourself. So I want to have a large T-Shirt

  • in black, and when I do that I select black, this image will be shown. I can add it to

  • the cart and then I can say, I also want to have an XL and add it to do cart. Now if I

  • take a look at the cart, you see this t-shirt "L Black T-Shirt, XL Black".

  • I go back to the shop, I click on the T-Shirt. Now what I want to do, I want to make the

  • XL t-shirt a little bit more expensive. So I can go back to variations, expand them all

  • or I go to excel, click over here and then I say this one is $24.95. Same goes for the

  • black one - XL $24.95. Save the changes, refresh the page and now you see, it is between $19.95

  • and $24.95. So if I choose M in black, men in black, it is $19.95, but if I choose XL

  • it is $24.95. So in that way you can use variations in your products.

  • Okay. I want to create my third product. I hover our new product and this time it is

  • a service. So I can say "zoom session with Ferdy." I skip the long description, I go

  • to product data. It's a simple product but this time it's virtual and it's not downloadable.

  • So when it is virtual and not downloadable, it's often a service like a Skype session

  • or a coaching session and then we can set the price - let's say $299. And by the way,

  • I do not offer the service in real life. I want to focus on creating tutorials. Inventory:

  • there's no inventory, because it's a virtual product. Link products: no. Attributes: no.

  • Advanced > Purchased note: I can say, "I will get in touch with you to make an appointment."

  • Enable reviews --- maybe people want to say how great it was to have a Skype session with

  • me and then here there's a short description. I would like to say, "Ask me anything in a

  • one-hour zoom session." Then I want to add a product category which is services. I can

  • have tags --- zoom, Ferdy, coaching. And then a product image. I'll do this one. This is

  • still me from six years ago, smaller version of myself. I still like this image. Okay.

  • If I publish it. I can take a look -- zoom session with Ferdy. Let's change it to a "one-hour

  • zoom session."

  • I copy the title and then I go to permalink. Right now, it's ferdykorp.com/product/zoom-session-with-ferdy.

  • I edit it and I changed it to "one-hour-zoom-session-with-ferdy."

  • So I go to the shop, then I go to the "one-hour-zoom-session-with-Ferdy" and then this is how it looks. And I want

  • to say that you can only have one. So I don't want people to say, I want to have a five-hour

  • Skype or zoom session with you. So, I go to inventory > sold individually -- update. I

  • go to the shop, then I go to the zoom session and then it's add to cart. So let's talk about

  • categories again. I go to the shop, I close this and now if I go to the hoodie, I can

  • see we are here at merchandise hoodies. If I click on hoodie or hoodies, I only see one

  • hoodie because there's only one product that has the category hoodies. But if I click on

  • merchandise which is also a category, I see two. Why? Because t-shirts also has the category

  • merchandise. So if I would go to the shop and I say that my Skype sessions should have

  • the category "hoodies", I added hoodies, update, I think you know what will happen now. When

  • I view the product, and I click on hoodies, guess what? I will see two products. So that's

  • how it works. If you have a big store with a lot of products, categories are really important.

  • Uncheck this, update and now I want to create a new product. New product. And this time

  • I want to add a downloadable product. It can be an e-book it can be a ticket for something

  • and in my case, it is an e-book. E-book: How to Become an Online Entrepreneur. Okay. So

  • this time it's a simple product but it is virtual and it's downloadable. So the price

  • is $19.95, or you know what --- it's $9.95, and then the downloadable file. So when people

  • buy it, what should they download since it's a downloadable file. I click on add file and

  • I can have the URL over here, so I will find a URL. So I can paste the URL over here and

  • then I want to copy the title - how to become an online entrepreneur - over here. I can

  • also have more files. I can say download limit, like people can only download it 10 times

  • and after 365 days the download can expire. I can leave it blank to have unlimited downloads.

  • Short description --- learn how to become an online entrepreneur. That's my son if you

  • can hear him, he's playing in the garden. I'm sitting in my shack over here. We are

  • going to move in two months and then I will have a beautiful office. Right now, I'm sitting

  • here between my bicycle and the fridge and a few lamps. I don't know. I'm not that good

  • in writing text.

  • So there's a product image and it is this one. It looks more appealing when you have

  • a cover like that and then we go to categories > add a new category > ebooks > new category

  • -- awesome.

  • One more thing, one more thing I want to show you, I can also say it should become active

  • from next week on. So from that day on, then you can buy it and they can send email to

  • your email list if you have one, like okay, from the 28 on I will sell my new eBook blah

  • blah blah.

  • I publish it, I view the product and that is a eBook "How to Become an Online Entrepreneur,"

  • for this price. Add to Cart and again I only want people to buy one. So I click on add

  • a product and add inventory. I check it. Okay. So far so good.

  • Let's take a look at another product. It's called an affiliate product. What is an affiliate

  • product? It's that you sell something on your website and when people click on the link

  • to buy it, they go to an external website with your affiliate link, and when people

  • buy that product on that website through your link, you get a commission. So I will show

  • you how you can create it.

  • I go to new product, and I call this one Elementor Pro. It's a beautiful page builder -- a pro

  • version. We will use a free version and the regular price is $49 I think. There's no sale

  • and I change the product data from simple to an external product. The product URL is

  • https://ferdykorp.com/elementor. The button text is "more information." Here's the price.

  • I can have an image. Elementor. Actually, it should say Elementor Pro and there can

  • be a category -- plug-ins or tools or software. Okay. Publish. I view the product and now

  • when people click over here they go to Elementor Pro or to Elementor, and then I go to pricing

  • and when they buy it, I get my commission.

  • So I go back to my website, and if I take a look at the shop, I would like to say so

  • far so good.

  • There's one more different product you can create and we're going to create it right

  • now. I hover over new. I click on product I call this USB stick. I scroll down and I

  • want to change this from a simple product to a grouped product. I can have SKU over

  • here, let me say 0006; okay that's it. I scroll down. I go to the product image and I choose

  • USB stick. Awesome. Here I can say choose a size for your USB stick. Over here, I can

  • say electronica. Ok. Publish. And if I view the product, look at this. Choose a size for

  • USB stick and there's nothing. So now we need to create three individual products that will

  • be shown over here. So I'm going to create the first one new product and I call this

  • one USB stick 32-gigabyte. Then I go to catalog visibility > edit, and I say "hidden."

  • So I hide the product itself from the shop, but it will be shown in this product over

  • here. So that's how I will do that and I can have the image over here, which is also the

  • USB stick. Then I want to publish it over here. What I can do now, I can copy it to

  • a new draft, so I will do that and that's my second product which is 64 gigabyte. I

  • copy it, edit, paste it; okay. Publish. Oh, I need to create a category; update. Then

  • I copy to a new draft and this time I say 128 gigabytes. Copy it; paste it; ok. Publish.

  • Awesome.

  • Now I go to the USB stick. I click on edit product. I close this, I scroll down and I

  • go to linked products and then here it says grouped products. I search for 32 G, then

  • for 64 G, and then for a USB and that should pop three things up. I choose the third one.

  • Okay. Update. Now if I view the product it says "Read More," so I can click over here.

  • So I go to this individual product, I click on edit product and I say this one is $19.95

  • -- update. View the product and I go to the shop, there it is. Then I click on those two,

  • copy them, open them in the new top. I totally forgot the price. Edit, CMD tap, CTRL tab

  • open or edit, sometimes I say things wrong and then I just continue. So this one is $29.95

  • -- update, and the third one 128 G is $39.95. I know it's expensive but it's just to illustrate

  • a point. Close it. Close it. Refresh the page and now I can say I want to have three of

  • these or two five of these and two of these. I click on Add to Cart. View the cart and

  • there they are: 32, 64 and 128.

  • So if I take a look at the shop now we have created six different products --- a simple

  • product, a variable product, a service product, a downloadable product, an external affiliate

  • product, and a grouped product.

  • So with those six things you can create almost any product you have in mind and in that way

  • you can fill up your store with a lot of beautiful products. So now we have six products. I want

  • to do something. I want to talk about upsells and cross-sells.

  • So I go to the first product the hoodie and I click on edit product. I scroll down and

  • go to the product data and then I want to go to linked products. I can do two things.

  • I can do an upsell and I can do a cross-sell. Upsell is showing a product on the same page

  • as the product that people are looking for and then suggesting other products. So if

  • I would say USB, I can grab this one as an upsell and I can go for the t-shirt. And if

  • I update it and I view the product in a new tab holding command or control on the PC,

  • here below, I will see this. You may also like and those two products. If I go to t-shirt,

  • I see related products, it sets automatically. But you can also decide what you want to show

  • over here by doing upsells.

  • Then there's cross-sells. If I want to go to the checkout. So I want to grab this, add

  • to the cart, view the cart. I can also show something over here. So if I would go to the

  • products and I go to a T-Shirt. I can say at the checkout, I want to have a cross sell

  • which is Elementor. Update. And now if I refresh it, since the T-Shirt is over here. If I remove

  • this and I go again to the shop and then to the checkout, or to the cart and I remove

  • the other t-shirts, the black ones; it's still there. But if I go to the shop now and again

  • to the cart, it is not there. Why? Because I have no t-shirt over here. So based on what

  • you have in your cart, you can show cross-sells. Well, I personally do not like to use it but

  • if I go to the hoodie, it gives you a little bit more control about what you want to show

  • over here. So you can do upsells like that. Okay, if I take a look at the shop, it's quite

  • a big shop like this; the images are big and I like to have a sidebar over here at the

  • right. So how can I do that? I close this and I go to the customizer. We use Estra theme.

  • If you use a different theme there are different ways to adjust this. But in the Estra theme

  • you can go to the sidebar and by default, there's no sidebar. But I can say on a WooCommerce

  • website or on the WooCommerce pages, WooCommerce, I want to have a right sidebar and at a single

  • product I want to have the default one, which is this one and that is no sidebar.

  • So right here, I see some space but there's nothing, why? We need to add some widgets.

  • So I click on publish, then I close this and then it looks like this. Now, I want to add

  • a few widgets. How can I do that? I go over here and then I can go to widgets, or I go

  • to the dashboard and then at appearance, I can go to widgets. A widget is an area in

  • your website in the sidebar that gives your website more functionalities. So you can have

  • an active product filter, you can have archives, audio, the cart, custom HTML -- you can filter

  • products, you can have a gallery and all those things over here. So what I can do; I can

  • take a look at the main sidebar but there's also a WooCommerce sidebar. If I open this,

  • I can drag widgets into the sidebar. So let me see. What I like is filtered products.

  • I don't see the whole text. So let me drag this over here to see it --- filter products

  • by price. I like that one. It's automatically saved. So if I go to the website now, I can

  • go to the shop and there it is --- filter by price. What does it mean? I can say I want

  • to search for a product that is between $0 and $50, if I click on filter, this will update

  • and only the products within zero and fifty dollars will be shown over here.

  • So if I would say between $50 and $300, it will update and you only see this one because

  • this one is $300. If I make this a little bit cheaper and I filter, it there's no product,

  • and in that way you can filter products by price.

  • What else? If I take a look over here, you can take a look at product categories. I can

  • click over here and I can select the WooCommerce sidebar, and add the widget. Then I can configure

  • it. I can say categories you can order them by name or category, you can show them as

  • a drop-down product accounts, how many products there are per category. You can show hierarchy

  • like the subcategories and if I save it, and I take a look, I refresh the page, it looks

  • like this --- categories and it looks really beautiful, really clean. I really like Estra.

  • If you want to see it a different way or you don't see it this way, you can click on customize,

  • go to Global > Container, and if you take a look at the WooCommerce layout, you can

  • say make it Boxed or Content Boxed, and then there's no box any more over here. Or Full

  • Width/Contained like everything is right now, or Full Width/Stretched. What does it mean?

  • It means that everything from the shops totally from the left to the right of the screen.

  • So if I make the screen smaller, it is still totally from the left to the right. Well,

  • I don't like that.

  • I prefer the default one which is in this case Boxed. So I like this. I have not changed

  • anything, so I'll leave it as it is. I close it without saving. So like that, then there's

  • another one; you can have the cart. Let me see Cart, cart where are you, the cart. I

  • can also drag it again. I can also change the order. So if I collapse everything, I

  • can change the order like that and I want to bring the cart down. So if I open it, there

  • are few options -- height if it's empty, so I click on save, refresh the page and if I

  • scroll down, there it is - our cart. It looks beautiful. Only the check out looks a little

  • bit weird. And if I make it empty, by closing things over here it will be hidden.

  • So if I go to the shop, it is gone. But if I add something, I go to hoodie and I add

  • it to the cart, and I go to the shop then it appears.So that's how it works. There's

  • another thing you can do. We can show a few featured products. So if I go to the widgets,

  • I can search CMD+F or CTRL + F on PC, featured. I don't see them. Okay, that's not working.

  • So I can search for products by rating, or products. If I say products and I select WooCommerce

  • sidebar, let me see. All products. Okay, here I can say featured products; show three and

  • I want to show the featured products. Order by: date, or price, or random. I do random.

  • Descending or ascending, it doesn't matter when it's random. I can hide free products

  • and I can show hidden products. I want to hide hidden products. Save it, and what you

  • will see now is exactly nothing. Why? We don't have featured products yet.

  • So what I can do, I can go to the back end, then I go to products, all products, what

  • you see over here is a star and it says featured. So I can select the three featured products,

  • the ebook for instance, the one-hour zoom session, and, of course, the hoodie. So now

  • if I go to the shop, we see the featured products. So you can feature a product or you can say

  • "on sale products." So if I select that, you see all the products that are on sale. In

  • this case, it's only the hoodie. So I can delete it and if I refresh it, it's gone.

  • So that's how it works.

  • You can also add more widgets by going to plugins > add new and then for instance, I

  • have a Facebook like box it's not configured but at the shop page I want to focus on shop

  • related widgets. Later, we can take a look over here; if we want to, we can add more

  • widgets over here. But actually, I like it the way it is right now. The question is is

  • it necessary because you can also see it over here. But I'll leave that up to you. Now,

  • I want to take a look at the rest of the page. How can I configure this? I click on customize,

  • I close this, then I want to go to WooCommerce and go through these settings. Store notice,

  • do we want to show that it is a demo store? Then you see this over here. I'll check it.

  • I go back then that's the product catalog, shop page display. Show the products or do

  • we prefer to show the categories. So if you click on ebooks then you'll see all the ebooks.

  • You can also do both -- the products and the categories but I prefer to have only products.

  • Category display: show products in that category. So if someone clicks on a category, for instance,

  • over here, how should it be displayed? Well then I want to show the products or I can

  • show the subcategories.

  • So if I would go to merchandise, you would see hoodies and t-shirts which are subcategories

  • of merchandise. I prefer products default product ordering. It's custom ordering. So

  • if I go back to the shop, it's a custom. So I can say average rating, or based on the

  • most recent one. So this was the first product we created and this was the last one. Sort

  • by price ascending or descending, so this is the cheapest one and this is the most expensive

  • one. I can change that.

  • I say, you know what, default sorting. You can also change it over here as a customer.

  • Change it by popularity, average rating, the latest, low to high, high to low. And you

  • can change the width to something smaller. I see no reason why I should do that. Then

  • you can see the amount of shop columns right now is 3, I can say 4 and if I publish it,

  • and I close it, my page becomes a little bit bigger and then it looks like that. So if

  • you prefer that, you can do that. I click on customize again. I want to bring it back

  • to 3. So I go to the WooCommerce settings, product catalog and I bring this to 3. Then

  • products per page, I want to show nine. You can also say 12, and then you need to go to

  • the second page. Then the shop-product structure. Right now, we see an image, we see the category,

  • we see the title, the review and the price. I can put a price on top if I want to and

  • then you see it over here. So you can change it. I like to have the title on top, then

  • the category, the rating, and the price.

  • I can also show a short description if I have one, and add to the cart like that. And then

  • you can add it to the cart immediately without clicking first on the item. Well, that's up

  • to you, I prefer to turn it off, but I'm in a good mood, I want to turn it on so let's

  • keep that way.

  • I go back, then to the single product, disable the Breadcrumb, I go to the single product

  • and then over here you see Breadcrumb -- Home/Services/ and then the service. If you go to shop and

  • you go to the hoodie, you also see the subcategory, you see the category merchandise / hoodies

  • / hoodie.

  • If you want to disable to click over here. I think if you have a big webshop, turn it

  • on. Disable it if you have a small webshop. You can disable it. This is handy for navigating

  • through the website. So you think hey, this is nice hoodie but I think there's a better

  • one. You can click on hoodies and see all the other hoodies. Go back. Product images.

  • Actually, I leave it as this. I think the quality is great. You can make it bigger but

  • for this, it looks perfect. You can say 500 and then the quality becomes a bit better.

  • Then there's the thumbnail cropping. Right now, it's a square. You can also say I want

  • that to be a custom 4 x 3 and then you see real-time update. I like 16x9, but for the

  • images of the store, I don't like it because then things will be cropped and it looks a

  • little bit weird. So I can also say uncropped and that means that one image is bigger than

  • the other depending on how I cropped it before I uploaded it. So I prefer a 1x1 and I go

  • back. I go to the cart, and when you click over here, I go to the cart. Let me see, I

  • need to add something. Add it to the cart. Now it is added. Click over here and it's

  • a bit smaller, that's why those buttons interfere with each other. Enable cross-selling -- this

  • is over here. I can turn it off. Go back. Go to the checkout and then you go to the

  • checkout page, also a little bit smaller than normal because of this area. Company name

  • fields, do you want that? If you sell to companies, business-to-business, you can say it's required.

  • So you need to have a business in order to buy things over here. You can also hide it

  • and then this area is gone. Well, I like it to keep it optional.

  • Address line 2 field, well, street address and the second one, I like to hide it. Just

  • leave your complete address over here. A phone field, right now, it is required and when

  • it's required, you see am asterisk behind it. I can say optional. So it's optional over

  • here. Highlight required fields with an Asterisks. I like that. So when you need to fill this

  • in, you see this Asterisks.

  • The privacy policy page, well the privacy policy page -- you need to create one. Let

  • me show you real quick. Publish it. Close it. So I can create a page. I can call this

  • Privacy policy. Publish; publish, and you can find privacy policy examples. Privacy

  • policy examples. You can also hire someone to do it for you, but that's how you can do

  • that and then I go back. I go and add a new page and I call this one Terms of Service.

  • I can also fill in the text over here or let someone else do it. I go to the WordPress,

  • logo, to the website, to the shop, I go to the customizer, WooCommerce then I go to the

  • checkout. Then here at privacy policy, I can select privacy policy, terms and conditions,

  • Terms of Service or terms of conditions, and then there's this area over here which will

  • be shown here below. You can click here to go to privacy policy page and you can agree

  • to the terms and conditions.

  • So, then you can change this text if you want to. I like it. I click on publish and then

  • it looks like this. If I go to the checkout, I don't like this area over here and I don't

  • like this space. So how can I change this page individually. Edit the page and then

  • here at the right, I want to have no sidebar, and I want to have a disable transparent header.

  • Update, preview it, and now we have a normal area over here with space and this looks beautiful.

  • Same goes for the... let me see, yeah this area, it also looks weird. So I click on edit

  • page and I want to do the same. No sidebar and disable the transparent header. Preview.

  • So that looks better.

  • So if I take a look at what we have so far, we have a beautiful shop. I can filter things.

  • I can buy them; add them to the cart. Here I can click on select options, so I want to

  • have an S in white. I want to have 3 add them to the cart. If I view the cart here or over

  • here, or just here, it looks like this. Beautiful. And if I change something then I can update

  • the cart and then the price will be updated and then we can proceed to the checkout, and

  • then we can fill this in. I think this looks beautiful and we're working with free tools.

  • I really like this.

  • So talking about how I like it, I can also change the colors. Let me show you how you

  • can do that. I close this and I close this. If I go to the customizer, I can change the

  • logo, I can change the colors of the website and change the look and feel. How can I do

  • that? I can go to the header, to site identity, right now we have this logo. I can also change

  • the logo and then I can click on upload files > select files and I can go to one of my folders,

  • let me see 6, and I can use this logo for instance. I can also use a Retina one or I

  • can choose let me see FerdyKorpMediaLogoRetina. I use this one I can optimize it, remove the

  • dashes. Copy it; paste it; select it. I skip the cropping and it looks like that. It has

  • beautiful color. If I want to check that color, I use a color picker. I have tutorial about

  • it, or I go to my folder, to folder 6, FKMedia, to the colors and then there's the first code.

  • I copy it and then I can change it. Okay. I've copied it. I will paste it later.

  • First, I want to add my retina logo which is actually the same. I can change the width,

  • you can make it bigger or smaller, and I can have a site icon over here. Right now, we

  • see WordPress. If I click here on select site icon, upload files, it needs to be square

  • file and the best is when it is a png.

  • So here it's 200x200, FerdyKorp. I open it; select; skip cropping and now we have a beautiful

  • area over here. If you have a lot of pages that are open, and once you can see you're

  • on the FK media website, so that's what I like. So we still have the color. Paste it.

  • I click on publish. I want to go back, back and then I go to global > colors > base colors

  • and right now it's an orange color - the theme color. I want to paste this color over here

  • which is more purple. You don't see it everywhere yet but I can also paste it over here, the

  • link color and everything that's a link now is purple.

  • Also over here this area and then there's the link hover. I would like to use a different

  • color for that. Copy, that one and then the heading color can also be this one. Publish.

  • Close it and now the color orange is gone. Oh no. Also here when you change, I can click

  • on customize again, but with a few configurations you can change the look and feel or colors

  • of your website.

  • So let me see. I go to global again. Buttons > colors. I click on colors and then the background

  • is this one. When I hover over it, it can be this one but a bit darker for instance.

  • Ok. Publish. Ok then I go to the menu over here. I want to make it capitals. I prefer

  • that and I can do that by going to menus over here, main menu. I click on home and by the

  • way home, I can remove it because if I click on the logo over here, I go to the home page

  • same with Apple. You go to a certain page, you want to go back, there's no home, click

  • on the logo and go to the home page. So I remove this one by clicking here and then

  • remove, then at About, I want to make capitals here at the Navigation Label by clicking here

  • and then change it to About. Shop capitals, Contact and publish. Close it. So this is

  • the shop page and everything is in the color of our theme of what we want.

  • One more thing over here. I want to change the logo. How can I do that? I can hover over

  • here and I can edit the footer. This is Elementor. I've complete tutorials about Elementor. If

  • you go to YouTube, you can search for "Elementor Ferdy" and I have ton of tutorials about this

  • subject. it's a beautiful page builder and you can learn a lot about it. If you want

  • to know which video is the right one, go to FerdyKorp.com and then two tutorials, how

  • to make a website for free, and then this video. That's the most up-to-date one.

  • Right now, I click here. I want to change the image > upload files > select files and

  • I like to have a white logos of everything I have. So if I say space, it's the white

  • logo, same logo but now in white, and I insert it and I make it a bit bigger, and create

  • a bit more space. Advanced : uncheck, button: increase, like that. Update.

  • Over here I can add my Instagram and same for those other ones, I have no LinkedIn,

  • no Twitter. Update. Okay. Take a look at the changes, then you only see the footer. So

  • I need to click over here and I need to click over there. Again, and now I can go to the

  • shop again. So far, so good. I like it.

  • So guys, ladies, are you still having fun? I hope so. Let's go to the next subject - we're

  • going to talk about the settings of WooCommerce. So we go to the dashboard, then we go to WooCommerce,

  • reports -- no, just kidding -- we go to settings. No. It's not even funny. You need to leave

  • your address over here, I think it's mandatory in a lot of countries. So I fill in the address

  • and then there's the question where do you want to sell to. Do you want to sell to all

  • countries or a specific counter or to all countries except for Burkina Faso in South

  • Africa. I've been to both countries. I love them. I love Africa. So that's why I thought

  • about that country. I can also say I want to sell to specific countries and I would

  • like to say the United States of America and Canada. The shipping locations well, I would

  • like to say ship to all countries you sell to. Who will ship to all countries if you

  • do not sell to all countries. So default customer location, you can say based on the shop base

  • address or geo-locate, or geo-locate with page caching support. I would like to say

  • geo-locate so they see automatically if somebody comes from Canada or from United States.

  • Enable tax rates, we will talk about tax later, so I'll leave it as this. Enable coupons,

  • we will also talk about coupons later. Then the currency, we've talked about it already.

  • I leave it as it is. Save all the changes and then we need to configure geo-locate.

  • So what I will do. I hold commands and I click over here. So I can go to the documentation

  • of it and I can generate 25 license keys. Well, why not do it? MaxMind GeoLocation.

  • Okay. Sign up for GEOLIGHT2. I'll leave my company, name, address -- all that stuff.

  • Choose one, the industry, eCommerce, Netherlands. Well, for me it falls on their language location

  • and I can leave my email address, my phone and then I agree and I say continue. Thank

  • you for signing up. You will receive an email with instructions then you grab the API key.

  • I need to create a password and I copy the token and I click on reset password. Okay.

  • I paste the code over here and now GeoLocate works.

  • It says it's not active but if I just created it, it needs to take a while. So I go to general

  • again and that's fine. I go to products, I close this, I close this and the shop page

  • which one is it? Well it's already shop page. You don't need to change this. Add to cart

  • behavior: Redirect to the cart page after successful addition. If you have a one product

  • page or website you can say that when people buy something, they add it to the cart here

  • at shop. If I say I add this to the cart, I immediately will be redirected to the checkout.

  • I prefer to leave it unchecked. So when people add something to the cart, they stay on the

  • page and they can buy more stuff. Enable AJAX add to Cart buttons on archives: yes. Just

  • leave that on. Placeholder image. Leave it as it is. The weight, you can change it. O

  • leave it as it is. Enable reviews: yes. Show "verified owner" label on customer reviews.

  • That means that if somebody bought something and they will become a customer when they

  • buy something, and they leave a review, they are a "verified owner." You can check that.

  • Reviews can only be left by verified owners -- that's up to you. If you don't want strangers

  • to leave a review, maybe they are competitors and say negative things, you can check this,

  • so that only people who bought your stuff they can leave a review. I think that's a

  • good thing.

  • Product ratings. Enable star ratings on reviews. If I take a look at the hoodie, you see star

  • ratings. You can check that and star ratings should be required, not optional. Yes. I like

  • it to be required. I save the changes and then we can go to inventory. Enable stock

  • management, hold stock for 60 minutes. What does it mean? If I have over here 50 hoodies

  • in stock and I say I want to add 10 to the cart. I go to the cart

  • and I change this to 10, update the cart. It is actually now reserved. So if a different

  • customer comes now and he wants to buy 41 hoodies. It will say sorry we only have 40

  • left, and the question is how long should somebody have the first right to buy those.

  • So I would like to say 10 minutes. That means that if somebody put them in the basket, he

  • has ten minutes, the first right to buy those hoodies. If someone else comes and wants to

  • buy 41 then it will say sorry, that's not possible. But after ten minutes, if he's still

  • shopping, then he loses the right and somebody else can buy 41. So that's how it works. I

  • like to say ten minutes because I think in 10 minutes people can buy things on the Internet.

  • Notifications - Enable stock notifications: yes. Enable out of stock notifications: yes.

  • You get an email when you have a low stock for product and when you have no stock anymore

  • for a product. That email goes to this email address so you can choose one. Low stock threshold:

  • I would like to say 20, depending on where you things. If you buy things from China it

  • takes four weeks before they arrive. Then you can say you know what, I have 50 left.

  • So depending on how much you sell. If you sell five products per day, that means you

  • have ten days left to get new ones. So in that way, so in that case, I would like to

  • say 300, if you have 300 left. It totally depends on what you sell and how fast you

  • can get new ones. Out of stock thresholds: yeah that's zero.

  • Hide out of stock items from the catalog. So if I've no stock for a certain product,

  • I can hide it from the catalog, but I I like to leave it into the catalog. Stock display:

  • always display. So right now, it says there are 50 or only show quantity remaining in

  • stock. Only this much less in stock instead of in stock. So a small difference, this is

  • the difference -- only 50 left in stock or just 50 in stock. So you can change the text

  • there, or never show the quantity remaining in stock. So I save the changes and it says

  • nothing. It just says in stock, not how much. Well I like this first one; save the changes

  • and then I go to the third one --- downloadable products. File download method, so it will

  • be forced download so when people buy it, then immediately the file will be downloaded.

  • Does a download require a login: no. When people buy something, they can immediately

  • download the thing they bought. Grant access to downloadable products after payment: yes,

  • of course. First I want them to pay and then they can immediately download it. File name:

  • append a unique string to filename for security. Do this otherwise people can, by reason maybe

  • figure out to where the download pages are. So if they see there's an e-book that's called

  • "make money online," again try ferdykorpwp.com/make-money-online.pdf and if you add a string then it will probably

  • be called something like this. So, yeah, turn it on. Save the changes. And then we can skip

  • shipping because we will talk about it later. We can skip payments and we can go to accounts

  • and privacy. I skip payments because we're going to talk about it later.

  • Accounts and privacy -- allow customers to place orders without an account: no. I want

  • everybody to be to get an account. Allow customers to log in an existing accounts during checkout.

  • So they go to the checkout and they can leave older details, but if they already are a member

  • they can log in over here and then there is all this information that will be filled in

  • already because we contain that information, because we have that information already that's

  • linked to the account. So I turn it on; save the changes; refresh the page. You don't see

  • it over here because I'm logged in already so then you don't see that. But if someone

  • is not logged in they can log in over here. So I turn it on.

  • Account creation: allow customers to create an account during the checkout - yes, of course.

  • So while you're here for the first time, you can create an account by filling in these

  • details and then you can create an account. Allow customers to create an account on the

  • "my account" page: no. Only when people buy something, they can create an account. When

  • creating an account, automatically generate an account username for the customer based

  • on the name, surname or email -- yes. They cannot use their own account name, we are

  • creating it for them. When creating an account automatically, generate an account password,

  • yes and then I will show you later how you can change that.

  • Account erasure projects: remove personal data from orders on request - yes. When people

  • want to remove all the data, we should honor that. Remove access to downloads on requests

  • - yes. Allow personal data removal: allow personal data to be removed in bulk from orders.

  • I'll check this because I to keep the data as long as people don't want me to erase that

  • data. Then there is the privacy policy, we've talked about it already in the customizer.

  • Then I can say I want to remove certain inactive accounts after a few months or a few days.

  • I leave it all as it is. I save the changes. Then I go to emails. Those are the emails

  • I get when there's a new order. I get an email on my personal email account when an order

  • is cancelled. I get an email from that when the order is filled, I can email about it

  • and this is all for the customer. When the order is on hold, when we're processing the

  • order, when the order is completed and the great thing is that we can change some things.

  • So if I click on completed order, I can click on manage, I can change the subject, I can

  • change the email heading -- "thanks for shopping with us," I can say "thanks for shopping at

  • FerdyKorpWP.com" so people recognize where it's from.

  • Additional content: thank you for shopping with us, if you have any question feel free

  • to reach out to us. We are happy to help you. Save the changes and if you want to take it

  • to the next level, you can change the custom PHP and in that way change the order. I do

  • not have much knowledge about PHP. I would ask someone else to do it for me.

  • So we scroll down, all those emails from, from who is it? You can say it's from PS5

  • tools, chargers and stickers or you can just say it's from ferdy korpershoek and then PS5

  • shop. From the address ferdykorp@gmail.com. The header image, so right now if I save this

  • and I scroll down again. I can take a look at the preview of an email template. Right

  • now, it looks like this. Well, it screams WooCommerce standard. So how can we make this

  • a little bit better. I close this and I want to go to media library. I hold command, I

  • click and then there's this image over here. I want to copy the link. Copy; and I want

  • to paste it over here.

  • Then there's the footer text. I want to say, "Thank you for your trust in us," and then

  • there's the base color. So I go back to the colors, copy and paste it. Then we can change

  • those colors and I like it the way it is. So right now, if I take a look, it is a bit

  • more personalized. It's also a little bit big, so I can grab a different image, media

  • library, grab the smaller one, copy and paste it. And if it's still a little bit big, what

  • we can do, refresh (that's the same one). Okay, what I can do now, I can go to the library,

  • I can click on add new > select files. I upload it again. This one, this time the normal one.

  • I can click over here. I can click on edit image and I can change it to 250 pixels and

  • click on scale and I think that should do the trick. Close it. Click on library again

  • to refresh it and then over here, it is made smaller. I can copy the link and I can paste

  • it over here. Save it and then refresh this and now this looks better. FK Media -- different

  • color, and the text will be created based on what kind of email they will get.

  • I can also click here, then you see text over here. You can change it. Okay. That was it

  • about emails.

  • Then there is something about integration but we are not going to integrate something.

  • Of course, only the MaxMind license key. I had it in my email so I should paste it over

  • there and then I should go to advanced, the cart page. Well this is all already okay.

  • Terms and conditions, choose the right page for that and you can change the checkout endpoint

  • URLs. So right now, if people want to pay, this they go to ferdykorp.com/order-pay. If

  • you have a different language, you can change this to a different language and over here

  • it says what it's about. So you can change those and also those. I'll leave it as it

  • is. I save the changes and then I go to REST API. I will do nothing with that. Webhooks:

  • no. Legacy API: no. WooCommerce, if you want to, you can allow them to get to know better

  • how people are working with WooCommerce and then they can make their product better. I

  • leave it as it is. I save it.

  • Now I want to take a look at coupon codes. So over here at WooCommerce, I can go to coupons,

  • it's a little bit hard to pronounce but I know that you know what I mean. So here I

  • want to add my first coupon code, so I click over here or if you're in a really good mood,

  • you can click over here and it will bring you to the same page. Here we can enter the

  • coupon code and keep in mind that this is the code that people need to fill in in order

  • to get discount. So I can say 10% without capitals. I can give a description -- you

  • applied 10% discount on your complete order. Then I scroll down a bit, coupon data. We

  • have three tabs and the first one is general.

  • The discount type -- we can have fixed discount. For instance, a fixed amount of money. We

  • can have percentage or a fixed product discount for a certain product. I say percentage and

  • the amount is 10. If you want to know more about all these options, you can hover over

  • here. Value of the coupon. We can allow free shipping. So I also can say Free Shipping

  • and then remove this area over here, remove this and just check this and when people enter

  • this free shipping, they get free shipping. I will use a percentage of then and I say

  • over here 10%. But that's what you also can do. I can also say that this will be valid

  • until the 31st of May 2020, and after that it's not valid anymore.

  • So I can send email to my email list, until the 31st you can have 10% discount on my awesome

  • webshop, where you can buy zoom sessions and stuff. Usage restriction, the second tab,

  • the minimum spend. I can say this coupon can only be applied when people spend a minimum

  • of twenty dollars. Let's make it 10 or a maximum of $500. So when they buy something for $600,

  • they cannot apply the coupon code and when they buy something below $10, they can also

  • not apply this. If you want this coupon code to be the only coupon code that can be active

  • at the same time, you can check this. Because when you check this, visitors cannot apply

  • three different coupon codes for this website and get a lot of discount. So you can only

  • use this one, not in combination with another coupon code.

  • Excludes sale items, so if I go to my website and I go to the shop, I see I have one item

  • for sale. I can say it will not be applied for the product that is for sale. We could

  • also say apply this for only one product, for instance, the t-shirt or exclude a product

  • for instance the t-shirt, or different products. We can do the same with categories. You can

  • say it is only for a certain category or we excluded only for a certain category, and

  • I can also say, you know, some people that have bought for thousands of dollars on my

  • website, I can track their email addresses and then I can put them over here so WooCommerce

  • knows only people with this email address, those users can apply this coupon code. So

  • I can say to people that bought for thousands of dollars, we want to thank you for everything

  • you've bought, we give you extra discount. So that is what you can do and then there's

  • a third tab usage limits. Usage limits per coupon. I can say this coupon code is only

  • valid for 25 times. Limit usage to x amount of items. I can say the discount will only

  • be applied to the first three items. You can do that. I leave it to unlimited and I can

  • say use this limit per user. So over here I can say everybody can only use it one time.

  • So the first 25 people before the 31st of May can use this coupon code.

  • You need to spend a minimum of ten dollars and a maximum of $500. You cannot use it in

  • conjunction with other coupon codes. You cannot use it for sale items and that's it. So I

  • click on publish and now I want to test it. So what I want to do, first I want to show

  • you how not to use it. I go over here and I remove everything, and then I go to the

  • shop, I scroll down and here I see the sale. So if I add this to the cart and I want to

  • view the cart, and I say 10% it will not be applied, why? This coupon is not applicable

  • to select products, and why because it is a sale. So okay, next option, shop. I go for

  • this ebook. It will also not be applied, why? Because it's below $10, the minimum spend.

  • Okay. I think it's clear. Let's do something that is applicable -- the USB stick. So I

  • want to have a few of those, add them to the cart, view the cart and now if I say 10%,

  • apply it and now it says coupon code applied successfully.

  • So here I see 10% of the subtotal is being subtracted and total amount is still 90% left.

  • Awesome. So that's how it works we can do something else. I can add a new coupon code

  • and this time I say $20 -- get a discount off $20. Okay. Discount type - fixed. Coupon

  • amount - $20. It will be available for an unlimited time. There's no minimum spend,

  • no maximum spend. Well the minimum should be $20 at least, otherwise people can buy

  • things for free. So let's say minimum is $50, no maximum. Individual use, so it cannot be

  • used in conjunction with other coupon codes, and it's for all products, it's for unlimited

  • usage per coupon and per user, I publish it. I think I need to refresh the page and then

  • I say $20, apply the coupon -- coupon code applied successfully. Now the other one is

  • gone. So you see it cannot be used in conjunction with others. If I would turn it off, over

  • here update, then let's see, 10percent, apply and then again $20, apply. It says "Sorry,

  • coupon code 10percent already has been applied it cannot be used in conjunction with other

  • coupons."

  • Okay. So if I would go to all the coupons, I hope I pronounced it right. So over here

  • 10percent, I turn this on-off, refresh and out there is 10percent and there is $20 and

  • I can use them both. Okay. What else? Ok, the third one, I say, or everything small

  • capitals, ebook, get $5 discount or off for the e-book, I don't know if that's correct

  • English, Grammarly, is it? It seems to be. I can check fixed product discount, how much:

  • $5, for: the e-book.

  • Okay. I publish it. I refresh this page. The e-book is over here, so if I say ebook, I

  • apply the coupon. Coupon code successfully applied. There it is. But if I remove this,

  • it says, "Sorry, it seems the coupon ebook is invalid, it has not been removed from your

  • order." Why? Because it's only applicable to the e-book. So that's how we can play around

  • with discounts and discounts are a beautiful way to attract visitors. You can send an email

  • to your email list, you can even go to Facebook, do advertising and say, "Hey, get 20% discount

  • only for the first 25 people." In that way you can get more clients, get more sales,

  • get more money and give that money away to people that need it or do other things with

  • it. So that's what you can do with discounts.

  • So now let's talk about my favorite subject - NOT. Let's talk about taxes. So I go to

  • the backend, and I'm not talking about the state Texas, I'm talking about taxes --- paying

  • tax to the government. So let's go to WooCommerce > Settings and in general, I scroll down and

  • it asks me enable taxes, do you want to enable taxes? Yes, I want to. When I do that and

  • I save it, there appears a new tab over here which is called tax. Prices entered with tax,

  • do you want that? And here you see explanation what it means. When you add taxes, that means

  • that when something is $20, then the taxes will be added and it will be something like

  • $26. Well, I prefer not to do that. So I say, no, I will enter prices exclusive of Tax.

  • The question is do you want to have prices with tax? If you are focusing on people that

  • want to buy things for the personal life, I would like to say include taxes in the total

  • price and then still keep the item $20 and then you will subtract the taxes from your

  • profit. So I will say yes. If you sell to businesses, I would say, no enter prices exclusive

  • of tax. Calculate the tax based on the customer shipping address, customer billing address

  • or the shop base. While I do the customer shipping address.

  • Shipping classes -- you can a standard, reduced or zero and I say shipping tax class based

  • on the cart items, why? Because every item can have its own taxes, like standard, reduced

  • or zero.

  • Rounding -- round tax at subtotal level instead of rounding per line. Well if I go to the

  • website, I go to the shop or over here view to Cart, do I want to show the taxes over

  • here per item or only here at the total? So I say only at the total. You can add more

  • tax classes. Right now, we have the standard one which is always there, then reduced and

  • then zero. And if you add some over here, it will be added over here and you can assign

  • products to your own made taxes rate, right. Those two are enough for me. I will talk about

  • it later. Display prices in the shop excluding talks or including? Well it depends again,

  • do you sell to people that buy it for personal use or for their business? I like to talk

  • about including tax. Okay, you know what? I will do as if I will sell to business so

  • here I say no. I will enter prices exclusive of tax and then here display prices in shop

  • excluding tax, because businesses can always subtract that and get their money back from

  • the government. So they don't have to pay for that. Of course, they pay it at the moment

  • itself but they get it back from government.

  • Display prices different cart and check out -- well, then I say include tax. So at the

  • checkout, they can see the amount of tax. Price display -- I can say this is ex. VAT,

  • that it means it's without the VAT. And if I save this and I go to the shop, everywhere

  • I see price, I see this is the amount ex. VAT. So let's leave it like that. I will show

  • you a few things and then I will also show you a way to do it on automation. But first,

  • I want to show you how to do it manually. So I like the settings, what we will do now,

  • we can go to the different rates and if I go to standard for instance, as I told you

  • I sell to the United States and to Canada. Well, per state there are different taxes

  • for different kind of products. So if I go to taxjar.com/states, I can see per state

  • what the taxes are. So I click over here and Oregon does not have sales tax. California

  • 7.25% and in that way you can see per state what the amount of taxes people have to pay.

  • I will show you how it works. For instance, I want to go for the United States, so I type

  • United States and there it is. I select it, I can say for the state California, I can

  • even narrow it down by choosing a zip or a city and the rate is let's say %7.25 as far

  • as I know. The tax name -- I leave it as it is. The priority is okay and I want to also

  • add Taxes over the shipping costs. So everybody that enters my shop from California has a

  • rate of %7.25 of taxes. So I click on insert row and I can say United States and I can

  • say Florida, and there it's maybe 10%.

  • I can create something for Canada and for the whole country Canada, there will be 15

  • percent of taxes. If I think this is perfect, I can save the changes and excuse me I need

  • to use a point. So I say 15, 7.25 not a comma and here is 10. Yes. Save it like that. So

  • when somebody comes to my website from Florida, they pay 10% taxes on everything. California

  • 7.25% and from Canada, 15 percent. Then for different products I have a reduced rate.

  • So again I can say from the United States, California, there is only 5%. For instance,

  • for books in the Netherlands when people buy books they only pay 9% taxes instead of 21%,

  • which is the regular taxes. So I save it and then there's also the zero rate, inserts and

  • that is zero. Let's say for the whole world and also here. Wait, let me save it. For the

  • whole world, let's say nothing over here so the whole world that enters my website pays

  • 5% reduced rate and the whole world pays 10%, and I select this one and I remove this one.

  • So the whole world pays 10% for the normal rate, 5% for the reduced rate and 0% for the

  • zero rate.

  • What I can do now, I can go to my shop and what I know is that digital products have

  • no taxes. So I click over here. It's not in every country. I want to edit this product,

  • so I scroll down and now over here, I can go to the tax status and I can change the

  • class to zero, because it's a digital product. So everything is profit which I really like.

  • In Netherlands, it's not the case I pay a lot of taxes for the courses I sell. So then

  • I go to a different product. For instance, the hoodie -- where are you -- I click over

  • here and this falls in the category of standard. So it's a 10 percent. Okay. And let's say

  • I go to another product -- the zoom session, that one is reduced. Just for the sake of

  • the illustration. So if I go and view the product and I go to the shop, let me see there's

  • a few things over here I want to remove everything. Okay. If I add this to the cart I pay no taxes

  • at all. If I buy this one I pay the full taxes and if I select an option over here, here

  • it is $19.95 and if I go to the shop, view the cart, you see all the prices are included

  • in the tax. So from the $32.95 there's a small part that is taxes. And we see that over here

  • $3.46 are taxes.

  • Okay. I want to change it. What I want to do? I want to go over here, I want to say

  • price is entered with tax -- yes, and then over here I can say display prices during

  • cart excluding tax. Save the changes. I can also remove this over here and now if I, refresh

  • there's zero percent of taxes so it's the original price. Here, you see it's cheaper

  • now. The taxes amount is subtracted and then here you see the taxes added. So you can play

  • around with these settings. I am going to my son. He is crying. It's a 12 o'clock at

  • night. I will be back with you in a few minutes.

  • So the question is do you want to show your prices exclusive taxes or inclusive taxes

  • on your website, and where do you want to display the taxes and do the taxes come upon

  • on top of this price or will the taxes be subtract this from the total amount like over

  • here. Like it says $27.23, but it is $29.95 actually. And then here you see how much taxes

  • there are. You can decide that based on this setting and then this ending and this setting.

  • Also, this one. So let me show you a better way. I go to plugins > add new and I search

  • for WooCommerce services. There it is, I click on install now > activate and now we need

  • to connect jetpack to activate WooCommerce services. So I will do that. Install jetpack

  • and connect. I want to show you every step of the way. It will save you a ton of time

  • when your taxes are automated. It's a little bit hard to enter all the taxes of all the

  • places in the world, it will show everything correct. Use my email address? Yes. It seems

  • that I have an account already. You can create a new account. It's authorizing my connection

  • and again you need to create a new account below if you don't have an account already,

  • and it says you're all set! Okay. Got it. Thanks.

  • Now, if I go to WooCommerce settings, I go to tax. I can select automated taxes and I

  • can say enable. Save the changes. Your settings have been saved. So I can do nothing over

  • here, because it's all on autopilot. So now we will take care of this.

  • So let's talk about shipping. this next step over here. I close this and now we can add

  • shipping, what I can do? I can add a shipping zone over here. Let's start simple. The zone

  • name, I will call this the Netherlands, because that's where I come from. The website sees

  • where I come from so I will choose a different name and say the Netherlands and then I need

  • to save it because I'm not shopping. I'm not delivering in the Netherlands or selling to

  • the Netherlands. So I can go to WooCommerce > Settings and I can go to General, leave

  • this, and then I can say I also sell to the Netherlands. Save it. I go back to shipping

  • > edit. I select the Netherlands. Okay. I save it and I add a shipping method. There's

  • a flat rate, the free shipping and the local pickup. I will choose a flat rate and what

  • I can say, it's really simple. I can edit it over here and I can say it's not taxable.

  • The costs are ten dollars when I sell something. So no matter what I sell, how much people

  • will buy, it will always be ten dollars. So over here I go to the checkout or I view the

  • cart, I scroll down and it says: flat rate ten dollars, shipping to the Netherlands.

  • I can change the address over here. If you don't see that yet, you can change the address

  • and then based on that it will say how much it will cost. Update. But what I also can

  • do, I can say to people, if their sub total amount is more than $50, I can give them free

  • shipping. So I can add a shipping method, flat rate, free shipping > add the shipping

  • method, and then I click on edit > free shipping requires a minimum order amount of $50. Apply

  • the minimum order rule before the coupon discounts. So when somebody buys for $60 and they get

  • $20 discount then it's $40, they still should pay for shipping. So apply the minimum order

  • rule before the coupon discount - no, after. Save the changes, refresh. So now it should

  • be free. They can select free shipping now because they have a total amount of more than

  • $50. So if I would remove this one, it is $49.40, they still need to pay for the shipping

  • because it's below $50, even though it's just ten cents. So if I were them, I would buy

  • something extra -- a nice t-shirt or something like that. But, there's a better way.

  • In order to get that, let's go to the plugins add new, leave this, and then I search for

  • table rate from jem. There it is, updated a month ago, a lot of likes. And I click on

  • Install Now > Activate. Then I go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping. I remove the Netherlands,

  • Delete and I click on add the shipping Zone and this time, I call the Netherlands again

  • and you can also add Canada and United States -- all the places you ship to and also here

  • I select the Netherlands. I want to save it first and I add a shipping method, and this

  • time as on the flat rate but here it is table rate. Interesting I click on add shipping

  • method it is to plug in we just installed and then here I click on edit and I can go

  • to the pro version or I can get discount for a pro version. I don't use the pro version.

  • I can add a new list of shipping methods. I enable this one. I call this one PostNL

  • or UPS because I use those to deliver my orders, and then I can do it based on the weight or

  • on the price.

  • Before I do that, I don't want to disable the tax. So I want to say total price. So

  • when the total amount that people buy is between $0 and $20 or $19.99, I want a shipping rate

  • of ten dollars. Then I want to add a new one. When people buy a total amount between $20

  • $49.99, I want it to be $15. From $50 until $99.99, I want it to be 20 and when people

  • buy for more than $100, I want it to be free. So I say $0. I save the changes and now let's

  • take a look what happens.

  • I go to shop and I go back to the cart. The subtotal is now $49.90, so what will it be?

  • $15, why? Because between $20 and $49, it is $15. If I would make this $20 now, I save

  • the changes and I refresh the page and it is $20. So I say $15 over here. What does

  • it mean? If I buy something that is below $20, I pay $10. So let me see if I can do

  • that. Only the t-shirt, now I pay $10. If I have a few more let's say 4, then I pay

  • $20 because it's now a subtotal of around $80 and that is still between $50 and $99.99

  • which is $20. If I buy one more than I exceed, excuse me, two more, now my total or subtotal

  • is above $100 so there is free shipping. So that's how it works. You can also do it based

  • on weights. So over here, and then you need to go to your products for instance the t-shirt,

  • edit the product and then you can say, at shipping, the total weight -- how heavy this

  • is. Or when you have variations, let me see, variations > add a variation, and then you

  • can go to, let me see, the weight. Go and say it's 0.6, click on okay. If you expand

  • it the weight is everywhere the same now. So you can save it here below. It's already

  • saved. Well, you can update it and then based on the weight, if you would apply that, you

  • can decide how much things will cost. I prefer the pricing but it's up to you.

  • If you want to make it more complicated or add different things you can search for WooCommerce

  • best shipping plugin and you can also say premium because then you get better tools

  • than the free ones. So that's what you can do.

  • So how are you doing so far? The fact that you are here at this time stamp in the video,

  • says that you are series in making a website. So congratulations with that. You're really

  • doing a great job and when I say a website, I mean a webshop. So now we're going to talk

  • about a nice subject. I like the subject really much about stripe. For me, it took years to

  • figure out how it worked. That doesn't mean that I worked for it many years, but I postponed

  • it for years because I thought it was so complicated. And then I find out found out how it worked

  • and actually it's quite simple. It's not applicable in every country. You can pay from anywhere

  • in the world with stripe, but to set up an account with stripe that is not possible in

  • every country. So let me show you a list with all the supported countries and check the

  • list online because the list is growing. Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland,

  • France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, the Netherlands,

  • New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States,

  • Italy, Portugal, Portugal, okay, that was weird, and Switzerland.

  • So if your country is not on the list, there are workarounds but this video is not talking

  • about that. I'm from Netherlands and I will show you how I got my stripe account activated

  • and I will also show you how you can use it with WooCommerce.

  • So the first thing we need to do, we need to go to stripe. stripe.com and it says, "The

  • new standards in online payments," it is. You can start now. So I click there and I

  • can create a stripe account over here. My email is info@ferdykorpershoek.nl. My full

  • name is Ferdy Korpershoek, I create a password, I confirm my password and then I click on

  • create account, and there I am.

  • optional so I leave that. Again, address, my company name again -- Ferdy and Anna Media.

  • Support phone number and then the bank details. How to make use of the two-step thing. Go

  • to the text messages. I confirm my phone number. I fill in the code I receive on my phone.

  • I want to copy this code somewhere on my phone. Okay, done that. Submit application. Right

  • now, it's being reviewed. Thanks for submitting, we're verifying your details which should

  • take just a few moments. This is where you can see how much you can or you have earned.

  • So I got an email thank you for submitting. They will review everything and they said

  • to me: "Unfortunately we were unable to verify some of your personal information." So I needed

  • to fill in some more things. Proof of my identity, so I send an image of my passport and proof

  • of my home address. Well what I needed to do, I used a bank statement with my complete

  • name on it. So you need to get a file that shows your complete name. It can be from a

  • bank, utility bill, bank statement, a letter from a government institution as long as it

  • has your complete name. So I found the document, I uploaded it and then I got access. So since

  • my account is active, I want to integrate it with my WooCommerce website, so that people

  • can pay through stripe using their credit card or Paypal or something else.

  • So maybe your account is activated already, maybe not. What you can do, you can test it

  • out. So we can go to developers over here, when you're on the dashboard, and then we

  • can go to API keys. Then click on a view test data and then we can use this publish book

  • key, copy it now go to your website. I will go to mine. To the backend, then I will go

  • to plugins. Add new and I search for "WooCommerce stripe." I click over here on Install Now.

  • Activate it. It's by WooCommerce by the way. Then I go to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments

  • and there are all those options now over here from stripe. So I can add credit card, I can

  • add Ideal if I'm from the Netherlands, but I will uncheck this now, because we're going

  • to test with credit card. But, there are a lot of options over here. I click on Save

  • Changes, then I scroll down I want to manage this. I can remove Stripe over here, so this

  • is what people will see - pay with your credit card, pay with your credit card via Stripe.

  • Then we need to enable the test mode and this is somehow weird. So I will remove this and

  • then there's the publish book key. I copied it. Then we can review the test key token,

  • copy it and I paste it over here and then we need to have a test webhook secret. How

  • can we get it? We go over here to web hooks below API keys. I create a new endpoint and

  • then the endpoint URL, go to your website you can find it over here. Copy it. Paste

  • it. Description - optional. Use the most recent version and then events to send, I want to

  • go for charge because I want to charge people when they buy things. I add the endpoint and

  • then I can click here to review the token. The signing secret and I can paste it here.

  • Then I scroll down. I can have a statement description, FerdyKorpWP shop for instance,

  • capture charge immediately -- of course, enable payment request buttons, Apple pay, chrome

  • payment request API by using Apple pay -- yes, and then I click on Save the Changes. Okay

  • ladies and gentlemen. Let's take a look. I click over here. I go to my shop or you know

  • what, I go to cart. I click on proceed to checkout. I fill in all my details over here

  • and then over here, it says I can pay with credit card. Since it's the only option is

  • already selected. If there are more options, you can select credit card or PayPal or something

  • else.

  • Well it's in test mode, so I copy this over here. This is my credit card, my test credit

  • card and I can paste it here and paste it here, and then I check this and I can place

  • the order. [Drum roll] And... yes! It works. Thank you, your order has been received. So

  • it's working. This is amazing. What that means, is that right now if your account is active,

  • we can go to API keys, we can then turn off the test data, we can get a publishable key.

  • We can create it over here, then the secret key, then we create a web hook and then we

  • can use it for real and people can buy things. So when people buy things, what will happen?

  • Well I'm the customer with this email address so I should receive an email, and there it

  • is, From Ferdy Korpershoek PS5 shop, your PS5 tools, chargers, stickers order has been

  • received. My logo -- thank you for your order. Hi Ferdy, just to let you know --- we received

  • your order, with the order number, is being processed; the date; what we bought; the free

  • shipping; paid with credit card; the amount; the shipping address so this is all amazing.

  • What we can do now? I as a website owner. I get a message too, both in my inbox and

  • over here. At WooCommerce, it says orders, and there it is. It says processing. If I

  • click over here. Maybe I have all my stuff at home, so I'm making ready the order. I

  • send it to the post office and then I send it to the people. What I can do then, if that's

  • the case, I can change the status from processing to completed and then I click on update. Now

  • I as a customer get a new email. Here it is and right now it says: "Your order is complete.

  • We have finished processing your order. Thanks for shopping ferdykorpWP. Thanks for shopping

  • with us. If you have any question feel free to reach out to us. We're happy to help you.

  • Thank you for your trust in us." So that's how it works.

  • Now if I go to stripe, go to home, no money is added because it's a test payment. But

  • if we which to the real API key, then the amount of money will be sent to me and then

  • every week depending on what you choose, Stripe will pay the money to your bank account. So

  • I will go to the website, maybe here the audio is different right now. I have a new audio

  • interface which should make the sound better, so I hope you like it more. Sorry for the

  • inconvenience. So let's continue.

  • What I want to do, I want to adjust this page. I want to show a few products and our most

  • loved products. So what I want to do first, I go to the backend and if I scroll down to

  • products, all products, it's not the case for everyone but if you installed the pre-made

  • website from Estra before then you should have a few extra products in the trash, and

  • I want to bring them back. So I want to click over here, bulk actions > restore > apply.

  • The only thing is now if I go to all, they are not published. Let me see, uncategorized.

  • So if I grab everything, filter it by uncategorized, filter. I

  • can do it two ways. I can click over here, quick edit and then select a category over

  • here, Electronica and update it. Or what I prefer? I open all these products holding

  • command or control on the PC, then I say control tap on the Mac or just go to the next step

  • on your PC. I select t-shirts over here.

  • Or what I prefer, I open this in a new tab, it's a mug. So I copy this; I go to categories

  • > mug and I add a new category. Scroll up, update it. Now I want to open all these mugs

  • holding command or control on a PC, then control tab on a Mac or just the next step on PC,

  • and then I select mug and I uncheck this. Next one, uncheck, check; update. Uncheck,

  • check, update.

  • For me, that's the most efficient way to work. It's not actually. Let me show you a better

  • way. I close these all. So over here is t-shirts. What I want to do select all these t-shirts

  • over here, scroll up, Bulk actions > edit > apply. Now I can choose a lot of things

  • and I can give them all a category over here -- t-shirts. I can change everything else

  • and I click on update. Now all the t-shirts will have the category t-shirts, but also

  • uncategorized. So what I can do I hold command or control on PC, I open them all, holding

  • command or control on the PC. Control + tab on PC. I scroll down. I scroll down to Uncategorized

  • control tab, scroll down control tab, scroll down. Looks a little bit weird and it can

  • slow down your computer. For me, it's the most efficient way to work. So now uncheck,

  • uncheck, uncheck, cmd tab, uncheck and then update.

  • I know I am asking a lot from my computer. I'm also recording so it starts to... the

  • fans start to heat it. And now if I refresh the page, uncategorized is gone. So I say

  • Cmd+w or Ctrl+W to close all these steps. Now, if I go to the website, to the shop I

  • have more products.

  • So I want to go to the home page. I want to make it look better and I can do that with

  • Elementor. So I click over here I close this. What I want to do? I want to add a few featured

  • products over here and there is a code over here. You can use this code. We can also use

  • an element within Elementor. So what I want to do now over here right mouse click, Delete.

  • Then over here I want to search for products, then you see widgets, so we want to skip those

  • and take a look over here but they cost money. They are locked and if you click on that you

  • can buy the pro version. I want to work with a free version and free plugins. I click on

  • update. I click over here to preview the changes. I go to the backend, to plugins > add new

  • and then I search for elementor add-ons. And I go for essential add-ons for elementor.

  • Look how many installations, a lot of five stars, updated three days ago so that's really

  • good. I click on install now. it's a free plug-in with a pro version, but we're going

  • to make use of the free version. I activate it and now we have extra elements within Elementor.

  • That's how easy it is. I say no thanks over here and then I go to the website again. I

  • close this, I click on edit with Elementor, I scroll down and now over here I can drag

  • something. So I can search for products, I scroll down over here you see product grid.

  • I drag it over here and there it is. Now I can configure this. Filter by, featured products,

  • you can add a star to a product. Let me show you in a minute and then it can be featured.

  • Columns: 4; I like it. Products count: also 4, you can also say eight. If more products

  • over here, I like to say 4.

  • You can also select a certain category. Style presentation simple or reveal style. When

  • you hover over it, you can add it to the cart or the overlay style. I like to keep the simple

  • style and we can show the product rating or hide it. Then there's a load more button,

  • we'll not use it. I go to the style and you can change the content background. I have

  • a border over here. What I want to do, I want to change the color of the rating over here.

  • I can paste the color of our logo and if I click on the plus I add a new color. If I

  • don't want to use this color, I drag it over here, so in that way I can use only the colors

  • I want to use. So there it is.

  • Now, over here, it looks like that. I can do the same for the Add to Cart button, Add

  • to Cart button styles, this one, and when people hover over it, I can make it a bit

  • darker like that. Right mouse click, copy, I scroll down, most loved products over here,

  • right mouse click, paste. That's how easy it is. I click over here and this time most

  • loved products, so I say top-rated products or best-selling products. Let's say best-selling

  • products and it's nice the way it is. So update, let's take a look over here and I have a complete

  • tutorial about Elementor where I will show you step by step how to create a page using

  • Elementor. I want to do a few more things. First I go to the settings over here. I click

  • on references and I enable editing handles, normally when I hover over here, I have more

  • options. I need to click over here in order to see more options. So if I turn it on, I

  • only have to hover over things and then I see more options. I like that. Update. Over

  • here, I can just click here, change the text, change the style. I can change the color,

  • bring it back, CMD+Z. I can change the typography. There are a lot of settings over here. So

  • I just click somewhere and then I edit it, and I can go over here and then I can take

  • a look at all beautiful elements. I can drag those over here where I want to when it appears

  • to be blue and I release it. It will be placed over there and then I can change the content,

  • style and advanced options like padding, margin, motion effects.

  • So if I would say bring it in from the left or from the left, it goes like that. I remove

  • it I can duplicate things. Again, if you want to know more about that I have a complete

  • tutorial about it you can find it over here. Update. When I update it, I see the result

  • immediately. So I see our featured products and I see our most loved products. If I take

  • a look at the website now, this is what we have made.

  • So ladies and gentlemen, this is the website we have made. We imported this with the Estra

  • starter template. Here we see our featured products with a free plugin that's an extension

  • on Elementor that we use. Here we see our most loved product. We have the about page

  • but we created a shop over here. I've shown you how to create a simple product. How to

  • create a variable product; a service product; a downloadable digital product; an external

  • product and a grouped product. We can add them to the cart and when you do that, you

  • see a widget over here that shows everything you have in your cart. You can view the cart

  • or you can go to the checkout. You can do the same over here. We can filter things by

  • price, we created the categories widgets and the products on sale and here we can go to

  • the cart. We talked about taxes included in the price or excluded. We talked about coupon

  • codes, about shipping and shipping costs and then we can go to the checkout and here we

  • talked about setting up this page. We use payment methods. At this moment, they are

  • deactivated and I talked about what will happen when people place an order.

  • We change the colors in the website and the logo. We change the settings of the shop and

  • of the pages in the shop. So you can start to sell your products online and of course

  • there are so much more tutorials if I go to YouTube and I search for SEO Ferdy. I say

  • Ferdy to make sure I'm on top. Not this one but I would use rank math. In our tutorial

  • or convertkit. How to build an email list, also less than an hour, you can also of course
