How to create an online store:
5 steps to your first order
Choose a ready-made template and customize it
The "Online Store" category contains website templates with a ready-made structure and blocks. Choose the ones that suit you the most. To customize the template, change its color palette, fonts, and buttons styles. If you need more blocks and pages, add them by clicking on the relevant button in the site builder editor.
Fill your site with products
Each product has its own web page, which is called a product card. On Weblium, you may add to your online store as many product cards as you wish. Your next step is writing a text to describe the product's key features and upload its images or video reviews. After that, you need to indicate the product's name, article, price, and status on the product card.
For each one, specify the main category. Remember, though, that one product can be located in different categories.
Set up the payment process
You can change the order form to make it more suitable for your needs. We also recommend connecting a payment service to the site so that the client can pay for the goods online. At this stage, it is worth specifying the price format and currency (depending on the region) and setting up notifications about new orders by email or Telegram.
Design your Homepage
Add a product block to the main page. Choose the most suitable product to display there. It may be bestsellers or new, unusual items.
You may custom product blocks by adding unique backgrounds, sliders, or animations.
You can also add a discount offer to the Homepage to attract customer's attention and motivate them to purchase your products.
Publish and Promote
Your online store is ready to publish! Tell the world and all of your potential customers about your store, start promoting it. First, link your website to Google My Business and specify a service region: that will help to increase your store's visibility in Google. Your second step is setting up paid ads, targeted advertising, and content marketing. These tools help attract more customers in no time, but you need to learn how to use them.

How to find your niche?
In other words, how can you understand what to sell and who is your target audience?
Focus on your interests
What do you like to do in your free time? What are you good at? What do you study? What special skills or knowledge do you have? Answers to these questions will help you identify a suitable niche for you.
Find out what's trending now
Google Trends is perfect for this. Even if you already know what products to sell, try to search them in Google Trends too. With its help, you can analyze not only the frequency of relevant search requests but their seasonality. That allows you to understand how many people are interested in your products.
Try to explore a new niche for yourself
Start with simple market research, analyzing how your potential competitors work. Pay attention to their website design, pricing, and bestsellers.
Solve customer problems
People want to buy things cheaper, quicker, easier. Think about how you can achieve these goals with your store. To do that, you need to make purchases in competitors' stores and see for yourself what difficulties their clients face. Then give your customers a decision, and they gladly stay with you for a long time.
