Generally speaking, you can create an online store in two different ways: one, you start from scratch and start coding; two, you use ecommerce content management system. For content management system, there are many options. Here we are sharing the benefits of using wordpress to create an online store.

Does not cost you any money. These days shopify is very popular but you have to pay $29 per month.

Easy to use. There are other free CMS like Drupal and Joomla that you can use to create an online store, however, these CMS are not easy to use. They require some programming skills. However, with Wordpress, you can create an online store with zero programming skills.

You can create a dropship site, an online store with your own inventory, as well as multi vendor site with wordpress

I think the most common disadvantage people have usually pointed out about the use of WordPress is the sites vulnerability to attacks and it being in secured. 2. When you are using a wordpress website, you need a lot of plug ins to get additional features.
3. These sites with their plug ins also require frequent updates which can be very annoying and frustrating.
 
Pros: It is extremely simple to set up. Anybody with fundamental information can make it.

Cons: It will turn out to be exceptionally difficult to scale. Some modules will presumably end its turn of events and not be viable with additional variants of WordPress or WooCommerce. These issues can kind of be tackled by getting an expert designer investigate your task.

If at all I am going to use wordpress ever, it will not be a free domain. The last time I created an affiliate marketing websites with free word press domain, I blamed myself. I wasn't even allowed to advertise anything, opening the site, it's always flooded with annoying word press adverts.

When you are using free wordpress, you not only get a subdomain but also limited to monetize your site, you cannot use ads from ad networks like adsense and infolinks. Even though you can use affiliate link on free wordpress, some affiliate networks do not accept free wordpress site. The best method of using wordpress is by buying a domain and hosting.
 
In a small business, it is likely difficult that customers problem fester because the owner will know soon and take action. Big businesses often take extended period to react to customers complaint. Small businesses are more flexible and less bound by policies and procedures.

WordPress is particularly useful when building an eCommerce website, because there are plenty of premade themes suited to an online storefront. It also features plugins that add complete eCommerce functionality to a site, from product display to shopping cart and checkout.

Site vulnerability is one of the major problems of wordpress. Since you are operating an online store and you receive payment, your site needs to be very secured. Using too many plugins may also lower the site speed. Having said that it is one of the easiest content management systems to manage. I think it is good to try because you do not have to invest a lot of money.
 
I don't think there is much disadvantages of using WordPress content management system to Design an online store. For example its always easy and super fast for those who doesn't have any programming language experience to design there website with WordPress and this gives them the room to also monitize it

Thank you for this lecture but despite the fact that I am not really into programming, I think word press is very good but it can be annoying if you're on free domain, the qnoying advertisements are too much to frustrate the life out of someone. But if it s paid domain, it's worth it. Wordpress is good.
 
WordPress is useful when developing a website for eCommerce, as there are several already existing topics suited for an online store. It also has plugins that add full eCommerce features from displays to shopping carts and checkouts to a website.
 
When you are using wordpress as content management system, you can use if for free. You can also use wordpress as a free blogging platform, howeve, wordpress as a free blogging platform gives you a subdomain and there are many disadvantages of using subdomain. You can also map your custom domain on wordpress blog but it cost money.

Pros: It is very easy to set up. Anyone with basic knowledge can make it.

Cons: It will become very hard to scale. Some plugins will probably end its development and not be compatible with further versions of WordPress or WooCommerce. These problems can sort of be solved by getting a professional developer look into.

While the WordPress itself is free, when looking at the whole picture there are significant costs. WordPress relies on plugins and themes for customisation, and while there are some that are free, they are not always reliable or safe. Furthermore, if you want your website to stand out and your visitors to have a great you have to buy a theme, as the free ones are overused.
 
That is one of the worst thing I will ever do because WordPress do not offer me anything and it will be very difficult for you to monetize you are online sites ,why will i try that when dot com domain is just 10 dollars, I will rather stick to dot come
Domain.
