When I first started looking into the best upsell plugins for WooCommerce, I realized just how valuable these tools can be for boosting my store’s average order value.

With the right plugin at my disposal, I can subtly encourage my customers to explore more expensive, feature-rich versions of the products they already love, without feeling like I’m pushing too hard.

Because WooCommerce sits on top of the incredibly versatile WordPress platform, adding upsell features to my site is a breeze.

The ultimate Shopify $1 offer is back! If you’re ready to launch a new ecommerce store, you can now access Shopify’s plans for just $1 per month for the first three months.

If you’re familiar with Shopify (one of the best ecommerce platform providers in the world), you probably know they’ve offered this deal before.

However Shopify deals change quickly. For instance, between January 2024, and November 2024, you could only take advantage of the $1 for one month.

More than a decade of experience working in the web development and design space has given me a hands-on insight into just how important the right theme can be.

An impressive theme doesn’t just make your Shopify store look better – it’s the key to increasing conversions and customer loyalty.

The Be Yours Shopify theme, with more than 500 reviews, and a 98% positive rating on the Shopify theme marketplace, is a popular choice for all kinds of merchants.

I put this theme to the test on a demo store, to bring you this behind-the-scenes guide, and help you decide if it’s the right option for you.

Choosing the ideal Shopify theme is the key to creating an attractive, customer-focused storefront that drives consistent sales.

I know from personal experience as a long-term web developer how crucial the right theme can be, but choosing the best option isn’t easy.

Shopify gives companies endless freedom to choose from a range of free and premium themes, both offered by its own theme marketplace, and external vendors.

Unlike many of the other themes I’ve tried, which attempt to target many different store owners, the Layla theme is a highly niche-specific solution, focused exclusively on furniture stores.

I put this theme to the test with a demo store, to discover whether it can really help furniture sellers increase conversions and delight customers.

Finding the ideal theme for your Shopify store isn’t easy, particularly if you’re running a B2B business with a limited budget. Most of Shopify’s free themes are simple, but great for beginners in the B2C landscape. The Trade Shopify theme is different.

Introduced in 2024, “Trade” is a free theme specifically designed for B2B merchants.

As a website developer myself, I can definitely say I’ve seen more advanced theme options out there, but the Trade theme does offer a great starting point to B2B sellers who need access to specific features, such as sign-up forms for wholesale partners, and volume pricing rules.

So, is this the ideal starter theme for your B2B store?

Finding the perfect Shopify theme isn’t easy. Most ecommerce merchants know that the right theme is crucial to earning consumer trust (and boosting conversions).

But there are so many different options to choose from, it’s often difficult to know where to get started.

As a website developer (with over ten years of experience), I’ve had an opportunity to experiment with countless theme options over the years.

The Kagami theme is one I’ve heard about from a lot of clients, who rave about its customization features, and fantastic navigation capabilities.

Choosing the right Shopify theme is crucial to your store’s success. I know from an experience as a web developer, that the right theme doesn’t just elevate your brand – it can make or break your sales potential. But there’s no one-size-fits-all theme.

After testing hundreds of themes personally, I think the Diva theme is one of the best options for fashion stores, and companies focused on delivering an excellent user experience.

I conducted this hands-on review to give you all the insights you need to decide whether the Diva theme is the perfect pick for your online store. Let’s dive in.

Your Shopify store theme has a significant impact on how customers view your brand.

Throughout more than a decade working as a web developer, I’ve seen just how much themes can make or break a company’s chances of growth. However, a great theme relies on more than just aesthetic appeal.

The right theme needs to both look great and convince your audience to take the next step in their purchasing journey.

That’s where options like the Minimog Shopify theme really stand out. It’s packed with powerful tools for up-selling, and increasing conversions.

I’ve seen many online stores use BigCommerce and Shopify. As businesses grow and change they may find their current platform no longer suits them. This can lead to considering switching platforms.

Moving an online store from BigCommerce to Shopify involves several steps and considerations. It’s a process that requires planning and execution to get it right.

In this post I’ll go through the methods I use when migrating BigCommerce store for my clients, including the steps and benefits of moving your store from BigCommerce to Shopify.

When comparing website builders and e-commerce platforms Squarespace and BigCommerce always come up. I’ve done the testing and comparison so you can see which one wins in each category.

Squarespace is known for its beautiful high res themes and ease of customization so if design is your top priority. BigCommerce has big inventory and international sales support and a ton of payment gateways and no extra transaction fees.
