Starting a new online business is both exciting and stressful. You have high hopes for your products and want to make a huge impact, but there are also so many things you don’t know about eCommerce. Because of these frustrating roadblocks, many have chosen Shopify as their starting point since the platform offers more than one tier, some of which are relatively basic. However, we believe help is still needed, therefore, we’re going to help you start a Shopify store without all the confusing technical terms. We’ll take you step-by-step through the process of how to build a successful Shopify store so you can get started quickly and easily. By the end of this guide, you’ll have your store up and running in no time!
How to start a Shopify store: Before you start
Shopify is a popular eCommerce platform that provides merchants with everything they need to set up and run a successful online store. Being easy to use, scalable, and having a wide range of features and integrations are the reason why businesses are adopting Shopify for their eCommerce solutions.

There’re many eCommerce platforms out there, however, many entrepreneurs would still consider Shopify to be the best choice for their businesses. Some of the key reasons for utilizing Shopify include:
- Shopify is designed to be easy to use, even for those who have little coding experience.
- With Shopify, businesses have access to all the features they need to run a successful online store, such as product management, inventory management, order processing, shipping, and payments.
- Shopify can easily accommodate businesses as they grow. The platform is scalable and can handle increasing traffic and sales volumes without any issues.
- One of the key advantages of using Shopify is the wide range of integrations. This means businesses can connect their store to other tools and services they use, such as accounting software, marketing tools, and shipping carriers.
- Shopify offers you 24/7 support services through live chat, phone, and email to help you launch your website or migrate it from another platform.
Starting a Shopify store just takes 30 minutes. This includes adding products, setting up payment methods and shipping rates, and configuring the store’s settings. Once the store is up and running, it can take some time to add more products and optimize the site for search engines. Overall, building a Shopify store is quick and easy, and businesses can be up and running in no time.
Decide on a target audience
The target audience is the specific group of people that a business’s marketing efforts focus on. It’s critical that you understand who your target audience is. It helps your company figure out how to reach people at the right time with the right message, offer, or product, increase conversion rates and drive more sales.
There are a few key ways to go about deciding on your target audience. The first is by identifying your ideal customer. There are numerous ways to do this, including market research, surveys, and interviews. Once you have an idea of who your ideal customer is, you can then start to segment them into different groups based on factors like age, gender, location, interests, and income level.
Another way to decide on your target audience is to look at your current customer base. This information can help you improve your marketing and make sure that you’re targeting the right audience.
To sell online, you need to know that every touchpoint a potential customer has with your business should be tailored to their needs and interests. By doing this, you’ll be able to build a strong relationship with your target audience and turn them into loyal customers.
Make a business plan
One of the most important steps you need to know before you start setting up your online store is choosing the products you want to sell. But when you complete step one: deciding your target audience, you’re already halfway there.
There’re numerous ways to find profitable products or services:
- Check out what’s selling in other stores in your niche
- Join relevant online communities that sell products or services appealing to you
- Keep an eye open for any trending new products or services in the marketplace
- Research the competition and see what gaps exist within this particular industry
- Make sure with yourselves that you love what you sell
Once you have an idea of what products you want to sell, it’s time to choose a business name. This is an important decision as it will be the first impression that potential customers have of your business but you shouldn’t spend too much time on it.
Your business name should be reflective of the products you sell. For example, if you’re selling pet supplies, you could choose a name like Best Pets or Pet Supplies Plus. Alternatively, you could choose a name that is more general such as The Pet Store. We recommend the last name because adding store or shop in the name will help you find a domain name easily.
Can You Start Your Shopify Store Without a Tax ID?
The requirements for creating a Shopify store depend on how you want to run your business. If you plan to register or have already registered a business, you will need to provide a tax ID. However, you do not need a Tax ID to set up a Shopify store. To create an account, you will need to provide your personal information (name, address, email, etc.), as well as have a valid credit or debit card. Once your store is set up, you can choose to add your Tax ID if you wish to do so. This is not required, but may be beneficial depending on your business’s needs.
Start a free trial
The next step you need to do before you create a Shopify store is to start Shopify free trial. You should start it because you need to test whether Shopify is the right eCommerce platform for you and it’s free so you have nothing to lose.
After you sign up for your free trial, you can begin working on building your store immediately. You don’t need to enter any credit card information upfront, but Shopify will ask a few questions. The most important detail it needs from you is what you would like your store name to be because it will form part of your default Shopify URL.
As we said before, don’t spend too much time on this. If you can’t come up with a great store name or URL, Shopify will automatically generate one for you. You can change this automatic URL at a later stage, but remember, you can just change it only once. Of course, you can buy a custom domain for your store whenever you and this will be the web address that your customers see, rather than the myshopify one.

Something prominent about Shopify’s free trial is that you won’t lose progress on your store if you decide to upgrade to a paid plan. Moreover, if you opt for a paid subscription during your trial period, then you don’t get charged until after the free trial expires.
The free trial for all the Shopify pricing plans (Shopify Starter, Basic Shopify, Shopify, and Advanced Shopify) gives you access to many features needed to create and run an online business so it is also a great opportunity to learn how these features can help with marketing your products and building your business.
Step-by-step Shopify Store setup
Create Your Shopify Account
Before you begin, create your Shopify account if you haven’t already. You’ll only need an email address and password; no confirmation is required just yet. Then, fill in a name for your store, it has to be unique or you’re able to purchase a domain on Shopify.

From there, continue by filling in a few more personal details about what you plan to sell. This allows Shopify to configure things like taxes and currencies based on the information provided.

Add your products
You need to choose your product range before you spend time customizing a store theme because the products you sell will have an enormous impact on the appearance of your store. You don’t want to customize your store theme first and then realize that your product photos or categories don’t work well with it.

To add new products to your store, go to Products -> Add your products in your Shopify dashboard. Then, you need to add some details about your products.
Product content: Title And Description, Media
Your product title and description are some of the first things your customers will encounter when they come across your store website. Because of this, these elements must be well-display and informative. Details like sizing, pricing, images, videos, and text can all make a huge difference in whether or not a customer decides to buy from you. If you’re feeling stuck, try looking at what other businesses in your market are doing for inspiration.
The title of your product is one of the first things customers will notice when they browse through your store or come across it on a search engine. Keep the title short, clear, and to the point so that people know what they’re looking at and can easily find what they want in your catalog. Additionally, make sure the product title is engaging enough to capture the customer’s attention – you want it to be reflective of the great content within!
The next thing you should consider is the product description. This gives you the opportunity to describe and sell your product effectively. You don’t need to be a professional writer to write an interesting description, you just need a strategy:
- Knowing your customers: This means you know who you are talking to. Use the information in the step Decide on a target audience to draw your customer personas and customize your descriptions so that it can make your customers feel confident buying your product.
- Display what sets you apart: Does your store have a great return policy or free shipping? Are your products environmentally friendly? Think about which features, benefits, and offers are most important and get the most out of them. A lot of retailers use a combination of text and icons to show these key selling points on their product pages.
- Anticipate customer intentions and questions: Try to find out what makes your customer nervous when buying. Do they feel unsafe about not paying with cash? Are they curious about where your product comes from?…
- Make your descriptions easy to read: Help your customers easily understand your products by writing descriptions in short, easy-to-read paragraphs with subheadings, bullet points, and bolded text.
- Help customers see the solutions in your products: It can be difficult for customers to imagine using your product if they can’t taste, feel, touch, or try it on. Utilize high-quality photos that show off your product. You can also list the materials used in production or share the story of how the item was made – this all depends on what type of product you have.

In the media section of the product page, you can upload any visual media like photos, videos, or 3D models to display your product’s richer details. These are a few key notes when uploading media:
- Your product photos should be high-quality and able to show your products in the best light possible. Blurry or low-resolution images won’t cut it.
- Ensuring all your product photos are the same aspect ratio (like the ratio between the width and height). This gives a much more polished and professional look to your website.
- You don’t need an expensive camera to take amazing product photos while most modern smartphones can do it! Plus, you can use free editing tools to make them look even better.
- After uploading an image, you can click on the image to perform some basic edits. For example, you can crop and resize it. If someone cannot see the photo, you can add the Alt Text for accessibility so that they understand what is in the photo.

Pricing: how to set an optimal price
Now it’s time for setting up your product price. Setting up a product price may seem easy, but there are several factors you must consider first. Things such as shipping costs, raw materials, and even the quality of your goods can play a role in how much you charge. You also have to account for things like rent or employee salaries, as well as the cost of your time spent making the product itself.
Your product price needs to be placed at a happy medium – not too high where you can’t generate sales, but not too low where people question the quality. Price is often seen as a way to measure quality by customers, so remember to stay mindful of competitor prices.
Thus, pricing your product can be tricky. We recommend you test the market with one price and change it later based on the results you’re getting. Generally, competitor prices should be used as a reference point, and from there you can lower your prices if needed to gain a competitive advantage.
Once you have decided on your product’s price, enter it into the Price field on your product page. You can also use the Compare at price section to contrast what the product would typically cost against its current list value; this is especially useful during a sale. For example, if you want to show discounts when buying a Blank Black T-shirt, you could enter the original price in the Compare at price section and the discount Price in the Price section.

The Cost per item field is optional. If desired, you can use it to track your profit margin for a single product. This can be helpful when creating reports.
The charge tax on this product option will only need to be ticked if it applies to your product type, location, and tax status. If you are unsure whether or not you need to tick the box, just go ahead and do so now — you can always change your settings later.
Inventory management – Product Options
If you’re not using a dropshipping or print-on-demand service, then this section is for you to manage your inventory and let Shopify know what actions to take if you run out of stock.
The information you enter here will depend on the type of product you are selling (physical or digital) and your preferences. The provided fields can be used to include:
- SKU: stock-keeping unit is a way to keep track of all your inventory for specific products and their variants. Creating a consistent system using numbers or letters will help you quickly identify what the exact item is.
- Barcode: If you plan to resell products or want inventory management to be easier in the future, then bar codes (UPC, GTIN…) are necessary. However, if you’re making and selling your own products now, you can leave this blank for now.
- Quantity: This is the quantity of a product that you have in stock. If Shopify displays multiple locations where your inventory is being held, they’ll be displayed here. This is the most important part of inventory management.
If you have a limited inventory or it takes a long time to restock your product, you can choose to mark the item as Sold out. However, if you’re able to quickly restock your product, then simply turn on the Continue selling when out of stock option.

By utilizing product options, you can offer variants of a product without having to create separate listings. This is extremely beneficial because each option has the ability to have its own image, price, tracked inventory, and settings that are unique to it.
After adding variants to your product and saving the changes, you will need to update the Media, Pricing, Inventory, and Shipping sections for each variant. Shopify supports multiple product options up to a maximum of 3 options per product. Each option can have up to 100 variants.
Product Shipping
This section is only for physical products. You need to check This is a physical product and enter the following information:
- Weight: The product’s actual weight.
- Country/Region of origin: The location where the product was manufactured or assembled.
- HS code: If you’re looking to ship your product outside of the country, please provide the HS tariff code.
- Fulfillment service: If you fulfill orders through a service, select it from the list. If you don’t use a fulfillment service, choose Shopify.

Search Engine Listing Preview
The Search Engine Listing Preview allows you to control how your pages appear on SERPs. By making use of this tool, you can make it easier for customers to find your products through Google or Bing.
To understand which keywords your target consumers are using when looking for similar items to yours, you need to do keyword research. We advocate using tools like Ahrefs and SEMrush so you can accurately find out what phrases people search, how many searches there are in a month utilizing these phrases, and how easy or difficult it would be for your product to rank for them.
Here are some quick tips for optimizing your search engine with Shopify:
- Page Title: Your page title should be impressive and include your target keywords to encourage users to click through to your page.
- Description: Include any interesting information here that will make searchers want to click on your product when they see it in search results. Keep your language concise and appealing, while expanding on what’s presented in your page title.
- URL and handle: For Google to properly index your page, be sure to include your target keyword in the URL. Keep it unique, straightforward, and meaningful for those who utilize search engines when looking for products.
- Keywords: You need to research your niche’s keywords to know your target audience better. Fill those keywords into your Page Title, Description, and use them as your URLs so that your customers can easily find your store on the search queries and search engines can crawl and index your site effectively.

After you’ve done this part, you can save our product page and preview it to see what it looks like. We can change the smaller details, such as colors and fonts, later when we begin customizing our store.
Organizing Your Products Into Collections
Shopify makes it easy to organize your products into collections. Simply go to Product -> Collections and add the products you want in each collection.

Organizing products into collections can help target a specific audience, keep to a theme, or showcase similar product categories. There are three primary benefits to creating collections:
- You can choose which products to display on the homepage by pulling them from a collection.
- Quickly help different audiences navigate your catalog by linking to collections of products in your navigation or on your homepage.
- Organizing items you want to go on sale (you can apply discounts to certain groups of products)
The Shopify collection editor allows you to title, describe, image, and manage SEO information for your collections in a similar way that you would do so with products. The main thing to pay attention to here is the Collection type box. This gives you the option to either create a collection manually or automatically.

If you go with the manual option, you’ll then be able to look for products and add them to the collection individually. If you select the automated option though, you’ll just need to set up some easy rules that populate your collection depending on: price, tags, or other conditions.
Additionally, on the right side of the product page, there is a section called Product Organization. Here, you can add information about your products that will make it easier to create collections and discounts.
Here’s what each field means:
- Product Category: The main category that the product belongs to.
- Product type: A category that you can use to classify certain products.
- Vendor: The vendor is the manufacturer, wholesaler, or third-party provider of the product. By filtering your product list by vendor, ordering inventory will take less time.
- Tags: Tags are keywords related to your product. You can use tags to help customers find your products through the search bar, or you can automate actions by adding products with specific tags to collections.
- Collections: Collections allow you to categorize your products for different occasions and customers.
Create other necessary pages in your eCommerce sites
Products are essential for your online store, but they aren’t the only thing you need. Your eCommerce website will also require additional pages that provide customers with more information about your business, build trust, and make other details easily accessible. These types of pages are just as important as product or category pages.
Before you decide on a theme for your store, have key site content in place. This way, you’ll be able to tell which templates would work best for your needs. You don’t need all pages completed before launching, but some of the most useful ones to create include:
- Contact page: This page provides customers with easy methods of contacting you if they have questions, or it navigates them to a place where they can find answers. Most Shopify themes come with an easy-to-use contact page template. All you need to do is create a new page, go to the Template section on the right side, and choose the Contact template. This will add a form to your page. You can then write some instructions explaining how shoppers can get in touch or even link out pages like an FAQ so that shoppers can troubleshoot their own problems first before reaching out.
- About page: Having an About page on your website is a great way to connect with customers, explain your business model, and/or share the story of why you started your business. A well-written About page can go a long way in building trust for new brands. Some brands even choose to have their founders introduce the businesses in a short video on this page. Including awards and press mentions you’ve received, and images that explain your company’s supply chain or business model is a classic, yet working way to demonstrate your About page.
- FAQ page: An FAQ page is designed to answer some of the more common questions that customers have. This can help reduce the amount of time spent on customer support, shorten the users’ consideration time, as well as boost your brand’s loyalty level as customers can see how you truly understand them via how accurate your FAQs are.
- Policy pages: Having these types of pages not only benefits customers but also protects you in case of disputes. Under the Legal tab in your Shopify settings, you can generate customizable templates for policies that are required by law for businesses: Return Policy, Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and Shipping Policy.

You can generate these sorts of pages by going to Online Store -> Pages and pressing Add page. Also, similar to what you did for your products, you should personalize the Search engine listing preview section of your web pages depending on how you want the URL to look and how you want the page itself to appear in SERPs.
Customizing your online store
It’s time to go to Shopify and begin considering what our website will look like.
Choose A Theme
Choosing a theme is an important step in creating a Shopify store. The Shopify Theme Store contains free and paid themes, each with its accompanying styles and features. Some themes are designed for companies with large catalogs while others fit better single-product businesses. Others still are crafted specifically for certain types of businesses or industries.

You can use a variety of filters to narrow your searches, such as price, industry, catalog size, and features to choose the best one for your needs. There are a few things you should keep in mind when choosing a Shopify theme:
- With various choices for themes and styles, you can build the perfect online store that meets your specific product needs and desired aesthetic.
- Always check to see if the theme you’re looking at has built-in features that perfectly fit your needs. If not, don’t worry. You can always find free or paid Shopify apps that will add additional functionality to your store website.
- If you change your mind about your store’s theme later, don’t worry. There are plenty of other themes to choose from, and you can preview them before making a decision. Plus, it’s easy to install, and customizing new themes won’t take away from any progress you’ve already made with building out your product pages.
Create an attractive homepage
Now that you’ve selected a theme for your website, it’s time to make an appealing homepage. To do this, go to Online Store -> Themes and press the Customize button. This will direct you to a homepage editor that uses drag-and-drop capabilities.
All Shopify themes contain customizable sections like slideshows, featured collections, images with text, newsletter sign-up forms, and featured products. This helps you determine the appearance of your homepage and lets you play around with different layouts before publishing anything.

A homepage needs to achieve specific goals and how these relate to your business should be considered when designing your homepage:
- Make sure that first-time visitors to your website can easily comprehend what your company does and the products/services you offer.
- Make sure to take care of your returning visitors by making it easy for them to find the products and pages they want.
- Keep customers engaged with your product and trust in your business with every scroll.
- Design your website to make it easy for visitors to find what they’re looking for.
- Keep your homepage simple and easy to navigate so that mobile users can find what they’re looking for without difficulty.
You will have to revisit and rework your homepage over time. However, don’t let the pursuit of perfection prevent you from moving forward with your launch. We recommend you should try a bit of user testing to get feedback on how attractive and user-friendly your homepage is.
Create logical Navigation Menus
You can add your navigation to a Shopify store by going to Online Store -> Navigation. It is crucial to create a logical navigation menu since it is how people will find their way through your website. There are three types of navigation you can set up in the header section:
- Main navigation: This top menu is where you can decide which main navigation paths are most important to offer customers.
- Footer navigation: The footer navigation is where you put links to pages that aren’t essential for new visitors but still need to be accessible to those who are looking for them. The majority of online shoppers will search here for things like your return policy or contact page.
- Search: If you want to help your website visitors find what they’re looking for more easily, add the search bar in the header. Search bars are especially helpful if you have a lot of products or pages on your site.

You don’t want to give people too many options right from the start. Instead, you can organize your navigation to focus on the actions you want visitors to take.
Apply Your Brand
Now it’s time to customize your store by setting your colors, typography, and other details that reflect your business’ brand.
The colors and typography you choose matter a lot for your brand’s image and identity. You can alter the look of your online store, including colors and typography, by clicking on the Theme Settings tab in the online store editor.

By following the tips below, you can build a Shopify store without any design experience and still create font and color pairings that you love:
For color:
- Understand how colors influence people’s emotions (red makes people feel hungry, yellow suggests safety, and purple can have a royal quality to it…)
- You can use contrast to make important website features, like buttons, stand out more.
- If you cycle through different color palettes, Coolors is a great tool to find colors you like and their related hex code.
- Not sure which colors to choose? Go with your first instinct or keep it simple by sticking to a black-and-white color combination.
For typography:
- It’s best to use two or three fonts across your website for a consistent look.
- When choosing a font for your website, be sure to select one that is easy for visitors to read.
- A great way to experiment with different font pairings is by using a tool like FontJoy.
Customize Your Checkout
You can customize the look of your new Shopify store by going to Theme Settings and playing around with the different checkout options. You can click through to your checkout settings (or go to Settings -> Checkout) if you need to customize how your checkout works.

Below are the options you can select for your checkout:
- Customer accounts: Depending on your store’s focus, you can decide if customers need to make an account to finish their purchase. If you run a wholesale or members-only business, this would be beneficial.
- Customer contact: After placing an order, customers can choose whether they want to be contacted by email or SMS text message.
- Form options: You can select to keep extra information like a first name or company name hidden, optional, or required during checkout.
- Order processing: There are options available to make ordering simpler and easier, or you can add an extra confirmation step.
- Marketing consent: By subscribing to your marketing emails and SMS, customers can stay updated on your latest products and offerings.
- Tipping: Customers can add a tip to their online purchases to show support for your business.
- Abandoned checkouts: Customers that don’t finish their purchase at checkout (this can happen due to many reasons) can receive an automated reminder email.
Set up shipping
Set up your shipping rates
After you add products, content, and design your own website, it’s time to think about how you’re going to get your goods to customers without any issues, as well as the tax implications of selling items. Let’s start with shipping.
To change your shipping settings, navigate to Settings -> Shipping and Delivery in your Shopify account.
There are a lot of factors to consider when shipping products for your eCommerce business, such as product weight, packaging costs, shipping destination, carrier rates, and profit per order.

We simplify it down to a few key methods. You can even use a combination of methods, depending on what will serve your business best. In this way, you’re sure to find a shipping strategy that’s perfect for you:
- Free shipping: You can offer free shipping as a way to encourage customers to shop. This might apply to certain products, order amounts, or types of customers. But you’ll need to raise your product prices so that the cost of shipping will be covered by the store and not the customer.
- Flat shipping rates: Flat-rate shipping is a rate not based on the product price or weight. So it works best if your products have similar sizes and weights.
- Real-time carrier rates: Rates that vary in real-time according to the postal company chosen by the customer at checkout, based on the weight/size of the order. Customers can select the service and price combination most convenient for them.
- Local pickup/delivery
Set up your tax rates
Depending on the country, many merchants will be required to charge sales tax or VAT (value-added tax) on their products. To avoid any penalties, it would be best to ask a professional how you should configure these taxes for your store.
Even though Shopify will automatically handle most tax calculations for you by using default sales tax rates around the world, it’s still a good idea to do some research or ask a tax professional about how much sales tax you should be charging. If your region has different taxes for certain products or shipping, you need to change the default tax settings.
You can manage your tax regions by heading to Settings -> Taxes and Duties in Shopify. If you want, you can edit the default rates here, or apply overrides for special conditions that might be applied to your region or products.

Choose a payment gateway for your store
We’re in the final stretch of setting up your Shopify store. This is the last thing you have to do before your store is ready to go!
You can easily set up your payment provider by going to Settings -> Payments. Shopify offers the ability to accept many forms of payments through Shopify Payments.
If your business is located in one of the countries we support and isn’t a prohibited business, you can activate Shopify Payments with just one click. You won’t be charged any extra transaction fees. You also can offer your customers additional payment options, or you can choose from over 100 third-party payment providers on Shopify.

After you click Complete account set up, enter your name, address, last 4 digits of SSN, banking information, and a few other pieces of data about yourself and your business.
With Shopify Payments, you can:
- Offer your customers various payment options for their convenience, like different types of credit cards or one-click payment methods.
- You can sell in multiple currencies, and your prices will automatically be converted into the customer’s currency if you enable this option.
- You can receive your payouts daily, weekly, or monthly according to what you think works best for your business’s cash flow.
- You can improve security by adding an extra layer of fraud prevention with measures such as CVV and postal/ZIP code verification.
- You can decide how you appear on your customer’s bank statements.
Prepare your store for the launch
Now that you’re finished, it’s time to let your store go live! But before you do, we recommend going through the following four options. They’ll ensure that your Shopify store stands out among the competition.
Add sales channels
By using Shopify, you not only create an online store but also have the opportunity to use other sales channels and meet your customers where they are. It’s easy to keep track of all your products, inventory, and reporting in one place so you always know what’s going on with your business.
But remember that not every sales channel will be relevant to your business, so you should check out some prominent channels:
- Shopify POS: This point-of-sale solution makes it easy to accept in-person payments and keep your Shopify store and inventory up to date.
- Social networks: You can sell your products directly on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest.
- Google channel: The Google channel allows you to list your products for free in the Shopping tab of Google search results, as well as run Google Shopping campaigns.
- Buy Button: If you want to sell your products on an existing website or blog, the Buy Button sales channel allows you to embed your products onto another webpage for customers’ convenience.

You also can easily add sales channels by clicking the + button next to Sales channels or explore the entire list of available sales channels in the Shopify App Store. Then, on your Product pages under Product Availability, select which products you want available for each channel.
Register a domain
A custom domain URL is one that you brand and select to replace the store name URL created during setup. For example, if your generated store name URL is mystore.shopify.com, you could buy mystore.com as your public-facing URL instead.
You can purchase a domain directly through Shopify or transfer an existing domain from another registrar in just a few clicks under Settings -> Domains in your admin panel.

Connect analytics
A detailed report is necessary for any merchant, and Shopify’s Analytics system delivers just that. However, as an entrepreneur striving for success in online sales, you need even more data than what’s provided. You can get access to this by going to Sales Channels -> Online Store -> Preferences and entering your Google Analytics code and Facebook Pixel – both of which can be found in your Google and Facebook business accounts.
Connect Shopify apps
You can find a range of apps on the Shopify marketplace to improve your store, no matter how successful it currently is. To explore the possibilities, go to Apps on your admin panel.
With so many options in the Apps library, you’re sure to find an app that meets your needs – whether it’s for referral programs, monthly budget calculation, email list building, social media advertising, or upselling/cross-selling.
Launch your store
Excellent job! You’ve just completed creating your first Shopify store. To achieve success, open it to the public and begin advertising to attract potential customers. Your store is currently password-protected and only viewable by you or others who have the password.
To begin selling, go to Online Store -> Preferences. Once there, scroll to the bottom of the page and disable the password requirement. You will need to select a plan and pay Shopify before you can start using their services, but after that’s all taken care of – you’re good to go!
