Here's Why We Love Using Shopify For Our E-commerce Clients



Shopify is famous, and for good reason. While there are many competitors out there, we keep choosing Shopify.


Why? Because it consistently delivers amazing results for our e-commerce clients. 


From its user-friendly setup to its powerful sales and marketing features, Shopify makes running an online store a breeze. 


Without further ado, let’s dive into why Shopify stands out as our go-to e-commerce platform. 


CAUTION: There's a lot to love! Don't say we didn't warn you.


Specially Made For E-commerce


Shopify is a dedicated e-commerce platform designed with a sole focus on online retail. It comes with an integrated checkout process, eliminating the need to develop one from scratch or install additional payment plugins. The platform is ready to use immediately upon registration, streamlining the setup process. Shopify also offers templates for standard policies like privacy and returns, helping you get started even faster.


While most of Shopify's features are geared towards sales, it also excels in marketing. The platform includes a built-in blog and seamless social media integrations, enhancing its overall functionality.


Affordable Pricing


Shopify offers competitive pricing, with e-commerce plans starting at $29 per month. This fee includes hosting, fraud analysis, and customer support. 


Plus, there are credit card processing fees for each sale, with the highest rate being 2.9% plus 30¢ per transaction, a standard charge for payment processing companies. If you decide to hire a freelancer or agency, you can easily get an estimate of the cost of creating a Shopify site.


Variety of Plug-and-Play Payment Options at Checkout


Shopify supports a wide range of payment methods, allowing customers to check out using their preferred system, whether it's debit or credit cards, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, and more. If you also have a physical store, Shopify POS enables you to handle offline sales seamlessly.


Once sales are processed, funds are deposited into your Shopify merchant account and then transferred to your bank account within 2 to 3 business days. Shopify manages all financial transactions for you, though you can opt to use a third-party payment provider if you prefer.


Security


Shopify handles all security measures, ensuring your platform is PCI compliant, which is a requirement for all credit card payment processors. This guarantees the safety of your information as well as your customers. 


Not only that, Shopify also provides fraud analysis for each transaction, available on all plans.


Integrates with Other Marketing Platforms


With Shopify, you can easily connect your marketing channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Amazon, and Etsy. The platform allows you to advertise and promote your products effortlessly, automatically sharing new listings across all connected channels with just a few clicks.


Wide Variety of Helpful Apps


Shopify's app store features a wide range of third-party apps that enhance various functions. You can add star reviews to products, display a sale countdown clock, implement chatbots, and utilize tools for upselling and cross-selling, among other useful improvements. You can even streamline the entire dropshipping process with just a few apps!


Many of these apps are free to use until your store reaches a significant revenue threshold, making it risk-free to try them out. Shopify also offers a selection of free apps developed in-house.


Fully Customizable Code


Shopify provides hundreds of beautiful free and paid templates that you can customize. If you want a completely unique design, the platform allows you to modify the website code. 


Integrated SEO Features


Shopify includes built-in SEO features, allowing you to add page titles, meta descriptions, and alt text for images directly when adding products. You can customize product URLs and incorporate keywords using product names, descriptions, tags, and categories, all in one place.


Final Words


In summary, Shopify is our top choice for e-commerce because it simplifies everything from setting up your store to selling products and promoting them online. Its easy-to-use features mean our clients can focus on growing their business without getting bogged down in technical details. 


Doesn’t matter if you're just starting out or expanding, Shopify's affordability, customization options, and built-in SEO (among other things) make it a great choice for any online business.
