Complete WooCommerce Tutorial For Beginners | eCommerce Tutorial

In this WooCommerce tutorial, I will show you from start to finish how to create a webshop using WordPress and WooCommerce. This eCommerce tutorial is both for people that want to create a fully functional webshop from scratch and for people that want to extend their WordPress website with a webshop.

If you start from scratch, I will show you how to get your own domain name and Webhosting. After that, we will install WordPress and WooCommerce so you can start selling products on your website.

There are 6 different kinds of products we will create:
1. A simple product with only one option.
2. A variable product where visitors have multiple options to choose from. Like size and color.
3. A Virtual product like a coaching call or a service.
4. A digital downloadable product, like an eBook, Image, Video, or any other digital file.
5. An affiliate product so you can send visitors to an external product or service using your affiliate link and when they buy the product, you get a commission.
6. A grouped product where you can sell multiple products on one product page.

We will talk about the title of your product, pricing, discount, scheduled discount, categories, subcategories, tags, featured images, gallery.

We will adjust our shop page to your wishes and add sidebar widgets like a search widget, price filter widget, category widget, featured product widget and a cart widget.

In order to boost the sales on your woocommerce website, we will talk about coupons. Coupons with discount in dollars and in percentage. Free shipping coupon codes. Coupons for specific products. We will also talk about limitations like spending at least $35 dollars for a coupon code to be valid. Or limit the amount of times people can make use of the coupon.

We will automate the whole shipping process. Based on the total weight of the cart. Or the total price. Based on where people come from. And we will encourage visitors to spend more on your webshop so they get free shipping.

I will show you how to apply taxes. How to set it up manually, with different countries, states and normal and reduced rates. I will also show you how let WooCommerce calculate the taxes automatically.

I show you how to add payment methods to your WooCommerce website so people can pay using creditcard, PayPal, klarna and other payment providers.

We will learn how to deal with incoming orders and how to change the content, look and feel of confirmation emails you send to customers.

After we make backups of our website we will learn how to import a pre made website (starter site) so you can save yourself a ton of time. At the end of the tutorial you will have a fully functional WooCommerce webshop on autopilot. They only think you need to take care of is sending the right products to the right address.

excellent video. all the information provided is very important... I love your videos, they are entertaining and provide so much good information, greetings

[mhthmusicvideos]

That was tremendous. The time, effort and amount of great info you put into it was invaluable. The fact we also get all this for free is beyond generous. Thanks you so much Ferdy.

[kristhaxhiymeri]

Thank you, man!! You are like the Jesus for WordPress, showing us the way!! Great job!

[motogirlthailand]

This is brilliant, Ferdy. You have saved me many times! (Btw, don't worry about saying "guys" - you can use it for both male and female. It is more of a gender-neutral kind of statement (at least for us native speakers). Thought I would mention that. As a woman I always use "guys", even when just talking to female friends). Thank you so much for another excellent tutorial. I am following along step-by-step and it is so clear! (*edit* - just one issue I am facing is that I cannot see the widgets in the customizer, for some reason. Currently trying to find a way to fix this. So strange! - *edit2* Solution was found! In the comment by Michal Jarzynski! Fantastic!)

[xevaxtavax]

I don't usually comment on youtube, but I would like to say a thank you Ferdy for this tutorial. I hope you know that your videos are actually (!!!) helping people moving forward with their business, and thus their life - which is the greatest value a content creator can provide. Thanks again Ferdy!

[gzexbig]

Really great job on this video. I am about 52 minutes in and appreciate you taking the time to build from scratch rather than using a demo store.

[krisgaines]

Wow. Amazing video! What I appreciate most is your timestamps! I don't need the basics...just some bits about woocommerce. So nice that I'm able to just watch the bits I need, not the "how to make a site" I love that it's all in the same video too! This is literally the perfect beginner and developer video! I can skip to the part I need for quick info as a versed developer, or watch the whole thing and learn everything! Very cool! 🤓

[tonybp]

Although I don't sell ecommerce shops because it takes too much time and clients always think money/transaction issues are the web developer's fault, skipping around this seems like a great video, as usual with Ferdy.

[Yindis]

Amazing work making this video. I actually like to listen to you unlike most youtubers that talk about bullshit before the actual meat and potatoes. You just delve in and hit it home. Dankjewel mijn vriend!

[mindraiz]

I just watched a few minutes of this video, and I already can give a thumbs up! create content! First time watching! Keep doing it mate!

You have no idea how it is helping! Great example there!

Cheers!

[bleibtreufan]

Thank you Ferdy. I seriously cannot thank you enough. I have been on the fence on creating a webshop, and that hesitation was mainly due to my lack of knowledge in creating and using the websites. It was just too shrouded in mystery for me. After watching your tutorial, I will now create my own website, and I truly hope that it picks up.

[Realstanikechukwu]

Ferdy is the best when it comes to website development with WordPress. I Started watching his tutorials since 2018. He's the best.

[zoranvuletic]

Since the beginning of my career, I am learning from you, all your information help me to develop my skills and implement them in my projects.
Ferdy videos are most professional and helpful in learning how to build and develop a website.
Cheers and one big thank you.

[victorianweeper]

Another brilliant video! I don't care if your videos are 3 hours long because I know they are going to be AmAzInG. I truly appreciate your generosity and time Ferdy.

[faizanshaikh]

Indeed, You have covered everything and it requires lots of patience.

[FanTessyDesigns]

This is the best tutorial I have found for this process and I've watched a FEW! Thank you for all the care you put into this! Your knowledge is appreciated.

[mm-zwng]

I'm here waiting for the rest of the new videos about things you mentioned in the end. Waiting here... haha!!! Great vid and thanks

[SalesAdministrator]

Zoals altijd, klaar en duidelijk uitgelegd op een leuke manier . Ferdy, je bent een topper
