Welcome to the long-awaited conclusion of the WordPress e-commerce series. If you have been with us since the beginning, you will learn about the various types of e-commerce, the various shopping cart plug-ins available, and view all settings related to online store startup. In the last post, we will learn how to add products to the online store. After all, what is the use of stores without products? Product types there are thousands of types of e-commerce products, but from a higher level, they are divided into able products and actual products. The service-based e-commerce website itself is a complete article, so it will be ignored for the time being. The
It can be seen from the able product name that this is the product that customers can after purchasing. These projects include e-books, music, software, etc. By default, all items on an electronic device are considered able products. Physical products this is where rubber embarks on the road of e-commerce. Physical products can be seen from the name. They are physical products that can be held or touched. Products that can be used locally, such as ordering food distribution through a website or ordering a larger scale. Once, I bought a motorcycle on the dealer’s website 200 miles away. I didn’t really see the bike until they rolled on the trailer in my driveway. The
This article will focus on adding real products that represent a larger area to the e-commerce world. To start adding new products to our store, you must make some preparations in advance to quickly add multiple products. When adding a product image product, the first thing to teach is the importance of the product image. This is important because it visually expresses the product and the whole store. You should have heard many people say that eating with eyes first, buying online is like buying with eyes first, and buying online is the same. This applies not only to our products, but also to the overall aesthetics of the website itself. If you look like a modern professional retailer, people will trust you more. This also applies to product images, so please confirm what you should do to make them look professional. The
For professionals, if they have free time, it is best to always let professional photographers shoot product images. Yes, I have a photographer who specializes in product image. However, if you don’t have enough time to be a photographer, you can get the following useful information: Make sure all images are the same size. It seems natural, but I see too many online stores with images of all sizes. If the images are all the same size, you can get a clean grid when displaying the image. Make sure the images have the same orientation. I repeat, this is still noteworthy. Making the image orientation exactly the same (horizontal or vertical) is another way to make the display clear and clear. Please check whether the background is consistent. If possible, I would like to use a clean white background in the product snapshot. Now most photo shops can buy white photographer backgrounds at reasonable prices. This way, customers don’t have to look at the dining room table or the back flash in the kitchen. These common sense tips allow you to display a wonderful product image. The
The product category has now viewed the image. You can go to the next step of product category setting. This category is exactly the same as the article category. The only difference is that it is set in Product > category, not in article > category. Like post categories, product categories can be broken down as needed. This can be really useful sometimes. For example, if you have an online clothing retailer, men>apparel>shirts>
Variables can be set. Before setting variables, you must add attributes directly above the transformation tab. The
Here, you can enter the size as a product attribute and apply it to various variants of the product. You can also decide whether to allow attributes to be displayed on the product page when adding attributes (expert tip: you must do this). Viewing the product page preview, you can see that the product is proudly displayed in the set variant. Male here contains the basic information needed to add new products to the store, but what if there are many products to add? Need to add separately? Of course, that would be boring. Instead, you can add a plug-in to the plug-in, which can batch upload CSV files containing all product information. There are many such plug-ins, so please find a plug-in suitable for the shopping cart and carefully follow the documents on how to upload. At this point, we will end our e-commerce series using WordPress. Please leave comments or questions in the comments below!
