Making your own webshop these days is easy.My name is Ferdy and in this video I will show you, from start to finish, how to createyour own web shop using WordPress and WooCommerce. This video is both for people that alreadyhave a wordpress website and want to extend it with a webshop, and for people that wantto create a webshop from scratch, who do not have a website yet. Let me show you what we will cover in thistutorial. For the people that start from scratch, I will show you how you can get your own domainname and web hosting, how to install WordPress, and how to install a pre-made website thatcan be adjusted really easily. After that, we will install WooCommerce --- an amazingfree plug-in that enables you to sell products through the Internet. Then we will createsix different products. We start with a simple product - just a hoodie. It can also be acap, something with only one option; in this case, a black hoodie. Then we go to the variable product. What doesthat mean? It is one product but it can have different variations like the size or thecolor. It can also say that a certain size or color or something else is more expensivethan the other options. Then we will create a digital product, for instance a zoom sessionor coaching session.
We will create a digital downloadable product like an e-book or a ticketto a concert of Justin Bieber or someone else if you prefer. Then an affiliate product. This is a reallynice market. You can promote other people's products, and when they click on it, theygo to your affiliate link and then when they buy the product you promote, you get a commission.And then the latest one --- a grouped product so you see one product again with differentsizes and here I can decide how many I want to have from everything. For each product,we will talk about the configuration options like the price, inventory, categories. Afterthat, you will learn how to configure the shop page; how many columns should it have;how big should the images be, and then here at the side we have a sidebar with widgetsand widgets are extra functionalities to your website. So here I can filter the productsby price, so if I say, let's see, I want to spend between 0 and 100 dollars and I filterit, then I see all the products that fall into that category. People can get through our categories. Wehave products on sale and if we add something to the cart, there appears a new widget overhere. It shows a subtotal amount and everything we have in our cart. The same is availableover here. So if I hover over here, I see that and then I can view the cart or go tothe checkout. If I view the cart, we see a beautiful overview over here with everythingwe have in our cart and I can adjust it over here. I can change this to 3, this one to2, and I can update the cart. If we scroll down, we see a subtotal over here and becausethis is the amount more than $100, I decided that the shipping is free.
We will talk aboutshipping based on where people live, based on a subtotal of the cart and based on theweight of everything that is in the cart. We will talk about coupon codes, so I madethis $20 dollars and if I apply the coupon, I see we get 20 dollars of discount and herethere are a lot of options. You can say by the $20 dollars, you can say percentage, freeshipping -- we will go in depth about this subject. We will talk about my favorite subject,not, but it's good to talk about it --- Taxes. How you can set it up manually with differentcountries, states, normal and reduced tax rates and I will show you how to apply thesesettings automatically, which is, in my opinion, a much better option. Then we will talk about payment methods sothat visitors can go to the checkout page, finish their order and pay money that willbe added to your bank account. I will show you how to handle incoming orders and keepyour buyers up to date with the progress of the order. When you apply what I teach in this tutorial,you are able to start selling products through the internet. Well I believe that your timeis valuable, that's why, I created an overview for you so you can skip certain parts if youhave done them already. If you're starting from scratch, I will showyou how you can get your own domain name and web hosting and I can offer you a 70% discount.Then we will install WordPress and after that we will import a pre-made website. After that,we're going to create an amazing webshop and if you have done step one. two and three already,take a look at this time stamp and then you can immediately go to the WooCommerce part.In the description of the video I have time stamps, so if you want to go to a certainpart of the tutorial, you can click on the timestamp and it will go directly to the partof the tutorial. If I go too fast for you, you can slow downthe speed of the video over here. I've been making tutorials for over five years now andpeople seem to love my videos. I do my best to get better and better, so I can reach morepeople with my teachings. If you have any question or feedback, feel free to leave acomment below the video.

you get a notification when I uploada new video. So having said that let's get started. The first things we need are: a domain nameand web hosting. If you have that already that is great then you can skip this part.If you don't have it, let's go to webhosting124.com. Then you can click over here to go to sitegroundis, in my opinion, the best web hosting provider there is. I tried a lot of web hosting companiesand I found out that siteground is the best one, and it's not only my opinion that theyare the best, there's a Facebook group all about web hosting and every year there's apoll with who is the best web hosting provider and siteground is number one every year. The web sites here are super fast, you cancall them 24/7 or you can open a chat session with them. I had a few times that I had noidea how to figure something out and then I went to the chat session and within a fewminutes they were able to help me. At the chat they can say you should do this and thisand this, but they often say let me do it for you if you want to. So the support isamazing. Because Siteground believes in their product and their service, they offer youa 30-day money back guarantee. So if you somehow do not like it, you can get your money back.So there's no risk for you. I don't think you will cancel within 30 days. It's amazingto get a domain name or web hosting through siteground. I host all my websites here andI will walk you through the plans. There are three plans. There's the StartUpPlan, the GrowBig Plan and the GoGeek plan. The startup package is $3.95 per month. Ineuros,
it's the same €3.95. You can have one website, that means one domain, then there's10 gigabyte of web space which is more than enough and 10,000 visits per month which isalso more than enough when you start. You can install WordPress for free --- there'sfree SSL. What is SSL? With that, your website becomes secure. With other web hosting companies,you need to pay money for that. There's even one where you need to pay $120 per year toget as a SSL. With Siteground it is free. You can have free email addresses like info@yourdomainor ferdy@yourdomain or your own name and your domain, and daily backups. So if you messup somehow, you can go to the backup of the day before and you're good to go. Then there's the GrowBig plan -- $5.95/monthor €6.45 per month. With this plan you can have unlimited websites. What does it mean?Here we can have one website, so one domain. Here it can have unlimited domains, so whenyou get the web hosting package of $5.95 per month you can buy ten domain names and thencreate different websites. So that's the great thing about the GrowBig plan. You can havemore space, you can have more visitors and if you scroll down a bit, you see, you canhave on-demand backups. So you push the button and you get a new backup. If you already havea website, you can have a free site transfer to siteground. You can have staging so youcan change things in your website and then push one button and then it goes to the livewebsite. If you want to know more about all these options, you hover over here and youcan see them. So what I love the most about the GrowBigplan is that you can have unlimited websites, and then there's the GoGeek plan -- 11.95dollars or euros and you have more web space, you can have more visitors and there are allthose extra options. I personally use this plan because I have a lot of websites anda lot of visitors. But when you're creating your first website, you can choose betweenthe Startup plan and the GrowBig plan. I will go for the GrowBig plan. So I click over hereon "Get Plan", and now we can register a new domain name. If you have a domain name already,you can click over here, you can fill in yourdomainname.com and then proceed. I want to register a newdomain name and I can choose it over here. So I can say ferdykorpwp (WordPress) and thenthere's extensions. You can say ".com", ".net" but there are also countering specific extensionslike .nl, like .pl, the .co.uk, .es.
If you want to go international, I prefer .com, not.net or those other ones, just .com. So be creative, make sure it is available, if it'snot available you click on proceed, you will see it is not available. The domain costs$15.95 per month, €14.95 per month and I click on proceed. That says "Congratulations!Domain ferdykorpwp is available for registration with our hosting account." That is amazing! So now, I want to fill in some details overhere. I want to leave my best email address over here which is ferdykorp@gmail.com; Ineed to create a password and I need to confirm my password. Then we scroll down a bit andwe go to client information. So first you need to select your country, then your firstname, and your last name. If you have a company, you can fill in the details of your company.If you're from the United States, you need to select your state or province, your city,your street address, your zip code and your phone number. Then I scroll down and I go to payment information.So I will fill in my details over here and the great thing is, depending on the countrywhere you live in, their local payment option. So if you're from the Netherlands, you haveIdeal, if you're from another country, you can pay with your local payment provider whichis what I love about Siteground. My billing address is the same as given in the contactinformation. I scroll down. We've chosen the GrowBig plan; you can choose your data center--- I choose the USA. If you want to focus on people from Europe or the United Kingdom,you can choose something else. I'll choose the USA. This is important. Here it says period:12 months. REMEMBER, you get 70% discount here at Siteground but it's only for the firstpayment period. So if you pay for 12 months, you get a 70% discount for 12 months. If youchoose 24 months you get 70% of 24 months. If you choose 36, you get 70% discount on36 months. The thing is when you say 36 months you need to pay now. So you pay $214.20 andthen you have three years of web hosting with the GrowBig plan where you can have unlimiteddomain names. If you will go for 12 months, then after 12 months, you will start to pay$19.95. I want to be upfront about that. So if you're really sure you want to go fora long time with this domain, then I would suggest you go for the 36 months. If you wantto try it out, do a shorter period; then I would say go with 12 months, and after a year,you start paying $19.95 per month depending on the plan. It's not entirely true, becauseafter your first period, you can decide to go for three years with siteground web hostingand then you get 30% of discount. So then you would pay around $14 per month with GrowBig,and $7 per month with the startup plan. If I take a look at what a website means fora business, I know it is worth every penny. So it's up to you, if you want to go for 12months, 24 months or 36 months. I go with 12 months and then we go to the next step.We register a domain name and then I also suggest you get domain privacy. Why is that?If you don't do this, people will see all this information you have filled in on thispage and they will call you, they will email you like hey I can make your website, youcan have a business loan if you want to; people start spamming you. You don't want that. For$12 per year, you can get rid of that. You don't need the Siteground scanner, so there'sa total of $99.35 and you have a domain name and website for a year. I think this is anamazing deal. What you can do now? You confirm that you'veread and agreed to the Siteground Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and you can checkthis if you want to receive Siteground news and special offers by email.
When you getthere through webhosting124.com, you don't pay more, but you get the 70 percent discountand I get credit for it. So it's a win-win situation and it helps me to make those tutorials.So thank you for that. I click on 'Pay Now' and now ladies and gentlemen, you have a domainname and web hosting --- congratulations. The next step is to install WordPress. Clickon this button with the text 'Proceed to the Customer Area'. And then we see this: Createor Migrate Your Website and then you see your domain name. We click on this orange buttonto set up our site and here we can start a new WordPress website. So I click on the button below: Start a NewWebsite. Then I choose WordPress even when you want to start a WooCommerce website, stillchoose WordPress and now we need to set up a login. Here you need to fill in your bestemail address and create a password. So I will use ferdykorp@gmail.com and my password.Awesome! Then I click on continue. I don't need thesite scanner; I have that already. I click on: Finish, and now our website is being created.It will take less than 2 minutes. It says now that your domain has been created andWordPress is installed. So what I want to do now, I want to go toa website. Here's my website and I click on: Site Tools. I want to do one more thing beforewe go to our WordPress website. I want to make it secure. So here we are at your domainand then there are a lot of options over here. What we can do now, we can click on securityand then we click on SSL manager. Our request is being processed. So here you can select your domain, if youhave one it's probably already selected. Select SSL and what it says, it's already encrypted.So I need to scroll down, here it is: Manage SSL. My domain already has an encryption certificate.I click on Actions > Enforce HTTPS. I click over here and I need to turn this on and nowit's turned on; that's it. So now; what I want to do? I want to go toWordPress > Install and manage. I scroll down. Here we have our domain name, WordPress isinstalled and I want to take an action by clicking here: Login to the Admin Panel, andwe are already logged in. What we need to do now, we need to skip theWordPress starter. So I scroll down and I click on exit, and ladies and gentlemen, weare live. This is the back end of our website. Here we can configure a ton of things. IfI click over here, left in top, I go to my website. Everybody that enters FerdyKorpWP.comat this moment will enter my website, and that's a great thing about Siteground, youare live immediately when you get a dot com domain. BUT it looks really bad; it looksreally bad. I don't know what do you think about this, but I think this is so ugly. So we're going to make it beautiful but firstlet me tell you some things about the front end and the back end. This is the front endof your WordPress website; this is what people will see when they enter your website. Sowe've created a beautiful webshop, people can navigate through your website over herethrough your domain name. Because we are logged in. We have a bar over here. If I go to FerdyKorp.com,I see no bar. Why? Because I'm not logged in. But here, I am logged in and that's why Isee this bar. Through this bar we can toggle between the frontend and the backend. So ifI click over here, I go to the backend. Here we can configure our website. We can updateour website or plugins, we can create blog posts, add photos, videos, PDFs. We can createpages like the home page, the Contact page, the About Us page. We can manage comments,change the look and feel of our website using themes and widgets. We can add functionalityto our website by free or paid plugins. We can add different users; we can exportthings and import things. We can configure the settings of our website and then if youhave a plug-in you can get more options over here. So if I take a look at my own website,I can do a few updates. I have comments I need to manage. There's marketing; jet plugins;more plugins. So the more plugins you have, the more things you see over here and if youclick on it, you can configure things. So that's the backend. We're going to talk aboutit more. Then we have the frontend and that looks likethis. So what I want to do? First, I want to clean up our website a little bit becauseit starts a little bit messy and I want to work in a clean environment. So I click over here. By the way, I can closethis now. So this is the back end. What I want to do first? I want to go to pluginsand I want to remove all the plugins we have. We want to start from scratch. So I clickover here. So I select all the plugins, bulk action. First, deactivate them; click on:Apply. When they are deactivated, I can select them again all by clicking here, Bulk actions> Delete > Apply --- yes I'm sure. Then I want to go to the pages; click overhere; select all the pages we have; Bulk actions > Move to the Trash > Apply. Now we can empty the trash by going to thetrash over here and empty the trash. Same goes for posts. There no posts. Only one inthe trash. I want to get rid of it. I empty the trash. Then I go to the dashboard. I want to dismissthis message and close everything. It looks better already. What I see over here? It says,"Howdy, ferdykorp@gmail.com" and I want to show my name over here. How can I do that?Here I want to edit my profile I can do that also over here at users, your profile, itgoes to the same page and here we can configure our profile. So I can change the look and feel of our backend. I like the default one. My username is this one, I cannot change it but I can addmy first name, my last name, and I can have a nickname and over here, it says displayname publicity as Ferdy Korpershoek or you can choose a different combination, and thenyou see "Howdy, Ferdy Korpershoek". What I would like to add is an image overhere, how can I do that? Well you need to have a Gravatar account for that. If I scrolldown, I can see that over here. You can change your profile picture on Gravatar. So rightmouse click > open a new tab and here I can sign in. If I leave an email address thatis the same as this one: ferdykorp@gmail.com, I will have an image over here. Well, I havean account already at info@ferdykorpershoek.com, so if I change it and I update it here below,
I need to confirm it, so I will do that. I click over here and I confirm it. I can scrolldown again, I can add some personal information about myself. I am 33 years of age. I am marriedto Anna. But I prefer that you write something that has to do with this website. So if Icreate a webshop, I would like to say "For years, I have been selling good products."And you can have your own price. I use Grammarly. It can make your text better. You can generate the new password over hereand then you can update it. So I cancel this; I don't need it. If I click on update, I seemy name and I see my image which I like. Then I want to go to settings; permalinks overhere and I want to use post name. That means that your domains look beautiful; your URLs.So if you have a product that's called iPhone, it will say ferdykorp.com/iphone instead ofa code like this and also Google likes it when you have post name over here, becausethen you will rank better in the Google results. Well one more important thing. If I go to Settings > General, we can giveour site a name; site title. And the site title is really important for the Google searchresults. So you can say PS5 equipment, if that's what your website is about. Use a fewimportant keywords for your website. So iPhone cases or environment friendly iPhone cases--- whatever that means. I created site title and don't say "My Webshop", because peoplewill not find you when they search for my webshop. So I can say PS5 tools. Tagline --- ina few words, explain what this site is about. We have the best PS5 equipment to give youan amazing gaming experience. Or PS5 tools | Chargers | Stickers. Whatever. Since our website is secure, you can alsomake it secure over here. Make sure your website is secure, otherwise, you can have an error.So I made my website secure. I showed you how and then I put an S after the P. I scrolldown and I click on: save the changes. Now I need to log in again and then over here,I can change the date May 21, 2020 or the time format. I like it as it is and I clickon "save the changes." Now if I take a look at the website, I really don't like it. Sohow can we change it? Well first we can change the theme, and maybeyou think what is a theme? Let me show you -- if I go to the back end, I can go to Appearance> Themes. The themes determine the look and feel of your website. So you have the sameinformation -- so if I take a look at the website. I hold CMD or CTRL on a PC and Iclick over here. I see the website; I see the title; I see the subtitle. If I changethe theme -- so 2019 for instance instead of 2020, and I refresh the page, the lookand feel is different but the title is still there, and the subtitle is also still there. So a different example -- Activate 2017 > Refreshand now it looks totally different. So the content stays the same with the theme, butthe look and feel changes. So I've done my research and one of the best themes out therethat is free is the Estra theme. If you want to take a look at it, let's go to FerdyKorp.com/estra,hit enter and there's a pro version and there's a free version and we're going to take a lookat the free version. We're going to use a free version. Here's a pro version. I've tutorialsabout all those things. There's a discount. But we're going to work with the free version.
You can download it over here or you go to the backend of your website, to Appearance> Themes > Add new and then search for Estra and then I click on install and then we canactivate it. So if I take a look in a new tab holding command, a theme changes the lookand feel but every theme also has their own configuration options, and those what's ourtheme are amazing. And there are more great things I will talk about it in a minute. The second thing I want to do. I want to takea look at the page builder we are going to use. In order to get it, let's go to FerdyKorp.com/elementor.Elementor is by far the best page builder there is when I talk about free page builders.There's also pro version here which is really amazing. I have tutorials about those butagain, in this tutorial, I want to focus on free things, free tools. Look at this --- thishow easy it is. Just drag-and-drop things, and we're going to use this page builder tocreate a beautiful web shop. You can download it or again, you can go tothe backend of your website, go to Plugins > Add new and then search for Elementor andthere it is. I want to click on "Install now" and then I want to activate it. So I can closethis and I can close this. What I want to do now? I want to make use of a pre-made website,that is made for free that we can install in a few clicks. In order to do that, we cango to the dashboard and you see this area over here. If you don't see that, no problem.If I close it over here and here, I can go to Appearance and since the Estra theme isactive, we have Estra options over here. I click on it and then over here, I see ImportStarter Template. I click on Install Importer Plugin, and right now it's importing and activating.Then we need to select the page builder we use -- we use Elementor. Now we can installtons of pre-made websites in a few clicks and those are amazing. Some are for the agencyversion of Astra, but most are for the free ones. So how can we use it? We can just clickover and now we can import this complete website for free. So that's amazing. What I can do?I can go back. I can filter everything so I can say I only want to have ecommerce websites,and I only want to work with Elementor. Since I've selected Elementor, I need to selectthis again, ecommerce, and I want to go for all the free ones. So we can choose betweensix pre-made websites. So what you can do now, we can take a lookat everything -- this one for instance. You see there are three pages and you can importthose pages completely. So if you see something you like, I like to have light background,something like this or this or this, and I want to go with this one. So I click overhere and I want to import all those pages, so
I want to import a complete website witha home page that looks like that, an about page and a contact page. In order to do that, I click on import completewebsite. I click here and it can take a few minutes and before we need to select a fewthings. Keep in mind that this will overwrite your current website. Well, since we workwith a new website, I can do this. But, if you already have a complete website, do notdo this. I click on import and it says it can take between 2 and 10 minutes. In my case,it often takes a minute. So I have to wait for a minute and then I will be back withyou. Imported successfully! Hurray! The website is imported successfully. Now I can clickon View the Site. Keep in mind, it can take a while before your website is shown correct.Well, in my case, it's the case already. So this is our imported website, it looks beautifuland we also have products over here. We can go to the shop, it looks so beautiful. Alsoif we go to All Products over here, we see our shop, we can filter things, Sort on Popularity.
If I click over here, it looks beautiful. We can add it to the cart. We can have relatedproducts. We can have reviews and if I click on "Add to Cart," I can view the cart. I canproceed to the checkout. We can enter our details. We will talk about shipping, about Taxes,about payment methods but this is already made for us. If I click over here, I go tothe cart and if I go to a different page and I hover over this area, you see what you havein your cart and then can go view the cart and go to the checkout. So this is all amazing,but not everybody is starting a website from scratch like I show you now. So what we're going to do -- it's a littlebit crazy. We're going to remove WooCommerce again because I want to show you how to createa website from scratch. And if you already have a website and you don't want to makeuse of the starter templates from Estra then I want to show you what to do. So what I will do now. I will go to Pages.I click on date and I remove the shop page, my account, checkout and cart. I select themall, move to the trash. Even if you use starter templates, I suggest you follow along becauseI want to show you from scratch how to install WooCommerce. I go to the trash, empty thetrash, and then I go to Products > All Products. Bulk actions. Select them all bulk actions,we move it to the trash. Now they're all in the trash. I will leave them there, I do notempty the trash. Then I want to go to the Categories, check them all, Delete, Apply.Same goes for Tags, we have no Tags so that's great. Then I want to go to Plugins > Deactivatethis one > Deactivate WooCommerce and then I want to delete commerce. Yes I'm sure. Alittle bit crazy at first, we installed it, now we deleted it. I want to show you from scratch how to createa webshop. So now if I go website, there's no shop anymore, there's only this area. Iscroll down and there are no products anymore. So we have removed the Products, we've removedthe categories, we have removed the WooCommerce. Now it's the time to create a WooCommercewebsite from scratch. So maybe you have this website imported or you have a website yourself.
Now you need to go to the dashboard. I goto plugins add new and I want to search for WooCommerce. There it is. More than 5 millioninstallations, 18 hours ago it was updated for the last time, it's compatible with thecurrent version of WordPress --- this is an amazing plugin. A lot of good reviews. I click on Install Now and then I click onactivate. I don't want to set up WooCommerce, so if you see that please skip it. Then Iwant to go to WooCommerce > Status. Then I go to Tools, I scroll down and I search forCreate default WooCommerce pages. So I click on create pages and now they are created. So now if I go to the pages, they are addedagain from scratch. So what I want to do now, if I take a look over here, I see no shoppage. What I want to do, I want to add to the shop page over here. So I hover over hereand I go to menus, then I want to add the shop page to the menu. I select it and I clickon add to menu --- the main menu. Then I want to drag it over here after orabove contact.
Account, I want to click over here and remove that and I want to save themenu. Now, if I go to the website, it is over here --- the shop page. No products were foundmatching your selection. So I want to add a few products and if wantto follow along in everything I do in this tutorial, then you can download the imagesI use. In order to do that, go to ferdykorp.com/images, hit enter and there they go. I click overhere to unzip it and I want to drag them to the desktop. Over here, folder 8 I have afew images for products I want to show on my website. So I close it and I want to createmy first product. I hover over new and I click on product. There are six different kind ofproducts you can create within WooCommerce and I will show you step-by-step how it works.I hope you're going to like it. I like this process. If you like what you are seeing sofar then please like this video and subscribe for more upcoming WordPress related videos.So the first product I want to add, here you need to create product name. I will sell ahoodie, so really simple, I call this Hoodie. If it's from a certain brand, you can sayNike Hoodie or whatever. Then here we have the long description. Hereyou can say a lot of stuff about the product. I will use some dummy text. So I search fordummy text generator over here. I copy this, I place it over here. I use dummy text soI can show you or the client, how it will look when they fill in their own text. Thenwe can scroll down and then we have product data. If you don't see this go over here tothe screen options and turn on product data. That's really important. Actually, you needto check everything except for custom fields and slug. So I scroll down again and thereare a few different products and I want to start with a simple product. What is the simpleproduct? It is a product with only one option. So you cannot choose a different size or color--- just a simple product. It's not virtual and it's not downloadable. It's a physicalproduct. So right now it says Pounds. So what I want to do I want to create a price in dollarsand then later change Pounds to Dollars. So I think this is $19.95 but I'm in a good mood.I will create a sale price for $29.95. So what I can do, I can publish it now. Clickover here, Publish. Now if I open the website in new tab holdingCMD and clicking here, I can go to the shop and there I have my product.
It's a sale andthere's no image yet. It's uncharacterized, it's a hoodie, no reviews and it's almost30 pounds. I click over here to go to the product andthis is how it looks, and here's the description. So we're going to make this look so much better.So what I want to do? I want to change the pounds to dollars, I can do it here in thebackend, I go to WooCommerce settings and then the first step general, I scroll downand I change the currency to dollar. Let me see, USA Dollar --- United States Dollar.Currency position: Left; Thousand Separator: a point; Decimal separator: point; Numberof Decimals: 2. I save the changes. Now if I want to edit my product, I can go to productsover here, all products, hoodie and I can continue to edit it. But I also want to showyou. If I scroll down all the way. I see product short description and then I can say thishoodie will make you popular amongst your friends, and attract your favorite peoplein life. I met Justin Bieber by wearing this hoodie. Remember, always be honest when you type thingsover here in the short description. Here you can say whatever you want, but please be honestover here. Now, I'm just talking stupid. I'm updating it and let's take a look. The shortdescription will appear over here. So now we see dollars $29.95 and we can add it tothe cart. So let's continue to configure this. I scroll down again. One more thing about the sale. Over here,we have the sale price, you can also schedule it. So you can say the sale price is onlyvalid from today until the 31st. After that, we'll have the normal price again. We cango from the General tab to Inventory. Here's a SKU, you can also take a look over herewhat does it mean. It's a stock keeping unit with a unique identifier. So if I would sella Nike hoodie, this one for instance, then it has a special code somewhere -- this one.Copy it and then I can paste it over here. Why? If I do that and people want to buy this,but it's out of stock, they can search based on their SKU number. That's what I will doto find it somewhere else, and then you can find your shop over here and people can buyit, you become so rich that you don't know what to do with your money. But then you cangive it away to other people so you get a fulfilled life. Help other people and enjoyyour life. Yeah that's how things can go. Do we want to manage the stock? Enable stockmanagement at product level. Yes, that means you can say how many you have in stock. Soif you buy 50, you can show them I have 50 in stock, and do we want to allow back orders?That means if you're out of stock, can people still buy it? If you say do not allow -- it'snot possible. You can say allow, but notify the customer. So you can say 'Thank you for your purchase,but we order them ourselves because they're out of stock so it can take a little bit longer.'Or you just say "Allow" it and make sure you buy enough new ones so you always have stock. You can also have a low stock threshold, thatmeans if they're only ten less for instance, you get an email like "Hey! There are onlyten of those hoodies in stock," and then you can purchase new ones. You can say sell individually, if you checkit, people can only buy one at the same time -- one per session. So if I refresh it, youcannot decide the amount anymore, you can only say add to cart. That's handy when itcomes to digital products like ebooks or a zoom session where you only want to sell amaximum of one hour.
Then you can say that you can only add one. Otherwise, people canbuy 5 hours of zoom session from you and maybe you don't want that. So inventory, we talked about it, and thenwe can go to shipping. We will talk about shipping later. Right now we can leave a weight,right now says kilograms and centimeters. You can also change it here. Again, let mego to WooCommerce, where are you, settings and then if I go to products, I can scrolldown and I can change the weight unit to lbs or oz. Dimensions: inch. Save it changes.But I prefer kilograms and centimeters. Save it. Products. And we go back to the hoodie. So I go to shipping and I say this one is0.5 kilograms and I leave the length for what it is. Shipping class - we'll talk about itlater. Then we go to linked products, you can do upsells. So that looks likes this.You have a product and then below the product it says "Maybe you also like this productas well." You can decide which products they are, but right now we don't have productsyet. And Cross-sells is when you go, if you add this to the cart, you view the cart, youcan add a cross-sell over here, which is also like this. I'll talk about later. Right now,let's go to attributes this is also for a variable product. So we're going to skip thisfor now. We can go to advanced purchase note. So "Thank you for purchasing this hoodie.Soon you will meet your favorite person on earth when you wear this." Menu order - that means if you have a cartover here, you have a few different products which products should be on top. I'll leaveit as it is. And people can leave a review. So if I go to the hoodie, over here there'sa second tab and I can leave a review with stars, leave a comment and leave my review.Then, get more options. I will leave this for what it is. So I click on update and ifI refresh the page, we still have this one. So I want to uncheck it. I go to inventory,uncheck it, update, and now we can add more than one. So if I say eight, I add them tothe cart, I view the cart and we have a total of nine because I had one already. So enoughabout this, about the short description. Let's add our own review. I can say, "This hoodiechanged my life. I have so many real friends now!" Add a comment. I save it, just to makesure. Then I go to the hoodie and I have a reviewover here -- this hoodie changed my life. I have so many real friends now! I can also leave a review. There's additionalinformation -- the weight. So it's getting better and better. Now I want to take a lookat an image because it looks so much better with an image. So I go to the products, Iscroll down all the way and here at the right, there is Product Image. You can have one productimage over here. So I click on set product image, and I can use free images from Pixabay,but I want to upload files by clicking on this tab. I select files and I want to selectall the files of folder eight. So I say CMD + A, open them and then one is selected andI can copy the title and paste it in the alt text, that's good for the search results soI can do it with everything. Remove the dashes; copy it; paste it. So I go to the hoodie, the front one and Iclick on select or set product image. So now if I update it, it looks so much better. Itlooks like this. I can click over here, I can zoom in, scroll a bit. Beautiful! I can also add different images here belowat product gallery. So I want to add a few different products. I click over here andI add this one in the back. Add to the gallery, I want to change the order, update, refreshthe page. Now there's this one and this one. If I click over here, I can zoom in and Ican navigate with the arrows and I think, wow! that looks beautiful. And I can closeit. So what I see over here is home uncategorizedhoodie.
So I want to create a category and if you have a big website, it comes reallyhandy to have a category or categories and subcategories. So let's talk about that. I go to the product again. I scroll down andhere you see the product categories. Right now, it says uncategorized because every productneeds to have at least one category, and here I can create a new category. So I click onadd new category and I call this one "Hoodies." Add a new category, I'll check this, so that'sperfect. But what I also can do, I can create a subcategory. So I can make hoodie a subcategoryof something different. For instance, merchandise. Well, right now I cannot make this subcategoryof merchandise. But if I click on update, and I go to products categories, I see hoodiesover here. I can click on it and I can say parent category is merchandise. I can alsoupload something from merchandise. So let me do that. So every category can have animage. Update. Now, if I go back to the product, I can also go here to the product, edit product,close this. You see over here, merchandise and subcategories - hoodie. So I will have a new category. Add new category.I say "T-Shirts" and then here I can say, Merchandise is the parent. Add a new categoryand there it is. I uncheck t-shirts because this is not a t-shirt, but that's how youcan work with categories and then below there are tags. Actually it's the same but not with a child,but not with subcategories, just tag. So if this have something to do with a hoodie, Ican type hoodie -- it is black. So I add black. It's for the winter, I guess, I add winter.Some words that have something to do with the hoodie. I can say Nike. So that's whatyou can do. I update it and I want to view the product. Beautiful! And here you see categories. The great thing about categories is when Iclick on hoodies, the category hoodies, I see all the hoodies. So all the products thathave the category hoodie will show over here. Then you see home > merchandise > hoodies.But the same goes for merchandise. I will talk about it when I will create a secondproduct. Right now,
I will leave it as this. Let's go back to the product, scroll downand then there are a few Estra settings if you use Estra theme. Every theme as its ownsettings. Estra theme will let you decide if you want to have a sidebar for each individualproduct. So maybe I want to have a right sidebar for this product. Then I can update it andnow then I go to hoodie again and now my hoodie has a right sidebar. There's nothing shownover here because we'll take a look at the sidebar widget later, but that's what youcan do for each individual product -- have your own settings. So maybe I say this product will not havea primary header, update, refresh and now the header is gone. I will leave it as itwas. Uncheck it, I can have transparent header but I don't need it. So that's my first product. I update it. Itlooks beautiful, and if I click on the shop, I see it here shining and be happy and allthat stuff. So that looks beautiful. Actually, I want to do one more thing. I want to havea good rate. So what I can do, I can copy this page, I go to Safari, I paste the linkover here. So now I am a visitor. I'm not logged in. I don't see the bar over here.I go to this product and I think I like this product. I wear it and I have so many friendsnow. So I go to reviews and I want to add a review with five stars, and I say I lovethis hoodie. My name is Bernard, my email is bernardlovesjustinbieber@hotmail.com.Save my name, email... no. I submit it and there it is -- "your review is waiting approval."Well I will approve it, because he mentioned Justin Bieber. So I go over here. Comments-- a new comment; Approve. And now if I view the product. It has two customer reviews,five stars and if I take a look over here, it says I love this hoodie from Barnard. Hedoesn't have an avatar which is a shame because all Barnards in the world should have an avatarin my opinion. You can also Google "should all Bernards in the world have...", no. Let'scontinue with the tutorial with important stuff. So this is our first product. It looks beautifuland now we are going to create our second product and we will take it a step further. So our hover over new. I click on productand I close this.
The name of the product is a "T-Shirt" with a capital T. Then we canhave a long description. We can have a short description. I want to focus on product data.It's not a simple product but it's a variable product and then I can say 0002 for instance.Do I want to keep stock? We've talked about this so I will leave it as it is. I skip shipping,linked products and I go to attributes. I want to add an attribute. What is an attribute?It's an option. So an option can be the size of the T-Shirt and then I can enter some valuesover here. So I start with S (small) | M (medium) | L(large) | XL (extra-large). I want it to be visible on the product pageand used for variations. So right now, I have four different products. I have a small T-shirt,a medium T-shirt, a large T-shirt and a extra large T-shirt. I save the attributes and Iwant to create a second attribute. Besides the size, I want to talk about color. So again,I click on add and this time it is about color. So the first one is white and the second oneis black. I use it for variations and it is visible on the product page and I click onsave the attributes. So I have two attributes. Size: 4 options, color: 2 options. A totalamount of eight different options for our variable product. Then I go to variations,and now I need to create variations based on the attributes. So I click over here. Iclick on create variations from all attributes and I click on go. I'm sure I want to do thisand there's a maximum of 50 per run, but what but we have only 8 so... And if you have 60,you can do it twice and then if all variations you want. It is doing some calculations and8 variations are added. Amazing. I can expand them all by clicking here andI can give every variation individual information. So I can say 0002A SKU and over here 0002B,0002C, 0002D etc. If you want to do that, you can give everything a different SKU. I scroll up to the first one. So this is smalland white, and I want to have a regular price which is $19.95, and this has a point in themiddle. The regular price for all. So I will also paste it over here and here and here.Instead of doing it everywhere individually, if all the prices are the same, I can clickover here and I can set regular prices for everything. If I click on go $19.95, I clickon OK. Save the changes. So I expand them again and now everything also below is $19.95. And if it's not working, sometimes you needto do it the second time. So set the regular prices, go and then again paste it and thesecond time it should be fine. So in my case, it worked the first time. So what else? Wecan manage the stock and I think it's perfectly fine. So what I want to do, a few more things.I want to add T-Shirts and merchandise to the category. I want to add white t-shirtsummer mode 2020. Add it. Then I want to add a product image over here - the white front.And then I want to click on these images and this one is white, so I select the white frontand the black front. I don't know it's black, it's quite dark, I can take a look over hereit's front, white, white, black, white, and black, white, black. Okay. I'm looking forwardto show you how it looks now. I click on publish, and now if I hold CMD when I click over hereI can see the product over here. So what we have over here is a t-shirt andgreat thing is you have to choose an option, so you cannot say I did not choose the sizebecause the size was by default small and the color white. Now you need to choose ityourself.
So I want to have a large T-Shirt in black, and when I do that I select black,this image will be shown. I can add it to the cart and then I can say, I also want tohave an XL and add it to do cart. Now if I take a look at the cart, you see this t-shirt"L Black T-Shirt, XL Black". I go back to the shop, I click on the T-Shirt.Now what I want to do, I want to make the XL t-shirt a little bit more expensive. SoI can go back to variations, expand them all or I go to excel, click over here and thenI say this one is $24.95. Same goes for the black one - XL $24.95. Save the changes, refreshthe page and now you see, it is between $19.95 and $24.95. So if I choose M in black, menin black, it is $19.95, but if I choose XL it is $24.95. So in that way you can use variationsin your products. Okay. I want to create my third product. Ihover our new product and this time it is a service. So I can say "zoom session withFerdy." I skip the long description, I go to product data. It's a simple product butthis time it's virtual and it's not downloadable. So when it is virtual and not downloadable,it's often a service like a Skype session or a coaching session and then we can setthe price - let's say $299. And by the way, I do not offer the service in real life. Iwant to focus on creating tutorials. Inventory: there's no inventory, because it's a virtualproduct. Link products: no. Attributes: no. Advanced > Purchased note: I can say, "I willget in touch with you to make an appointment." Enable reviews --- maybe people want to sayhow great it was to have a Skype session with me and then here there's a short description.I would like to say, "Ask me anything in a one-hour zoom session." Then I want to adda product category which is services. I can have tags --- zoom, Ferdy, coaching. And thena product image. I'll do this one. This is still me from six years ago, smaller versionof myself. I still like this image. Okay. If I publish it. I can take a look -- zoomsession with Ferdy. Let's change it to a "one-hour zoom session." I copy the title and then I go to permalink.Right now, it's ferdykorp.com/product/zoom-session-with-ferdy. I edit it and I changed it to "one-hour-zoom-session-with-ferdy." So I go to the shop, then I go to the "one-hour-zoom-session-with-Ferdy"and then this is how it looks. And I want to say that you can only have one. So I don'twant people to say, I want to have a five-hour Skype or zoom session with you. So, I go toinventory > sold individually -- update.
I go to the shop, then I go to the zoom sessionand then it's add to cart. So let's talk about categories again. I go to the shop, I closethis and now if I go to the hoodie, I can see we are here at merchandise hoodies. IfI click on hoodie or hoodies, I only see one hoodie because there's only one product thathas the category hoodies. But if I click on merchandise which is also a category, I seetwo. Why? Because t-shirts also has the category merchandise. So if I would go to the shopand I say that my Skype sessions should have the category "hoodies", I added hoodies, update,I think you know what will happen now. When I view the product, and I click on hoodies,guess what? I will see two products. So that's how it works. If you have a big store witha lot of products, categories are really important. Uncheck this, update and now I want to createa new product. New product. And this time I want to add a downloadable product. It canbe an e-book it can be a ticket for something and in my case, it is an e-book. E-book: Howto Become an Online Entrepreneur. Okay. So this time it's a simple product but it isvirtual and it's downloadable. So the price is $19.95, or you know what --- it's $9.95,and then the downloadable file. So when people buy it, what should they download since it'sa downloadable file. I click on add file and I can have the URL over here, so I will finda URL. So I can paste the URL over here and then I want to copy the title - how to becomean online entrepreneur - over here. I can also have more files. I can say download limit,like people can only download it 10 times and after 365 days the download can expire.I can leave it blank to have unlimited downloads. Short description --- learn how to becomean online entrepreneur. That's my son if you can hear him, he's playing in the garden.I'm sitting in my shack over here. We are going to move in two months and then I willhave a beautiful office. Right now, I'm sitting here between my bicycle and the fridge anda few lamps. I don't know.
I'm not that good in writing text. So there's a product image and it is thisone. It looks more appealing when you have a cover like that and then we go to categories> add a new category > ebooks > new category -- awesome. One more thing, one more thing I want to showyou, I can also say it should become active from next week on. So from that day on, thenyou can buy it and they can send email to your email list if you have one, like okay,from the 28 on I will sell my new eBook blah blah blah. I publish it, I view the product and thatis a eBook "How to Become an Online Entrepreneur," for this price. Add to Cart and again I onlywant people to buy one. So I click on add a product and add inventory. I check it. Okay.So far so good. Let's take a look at another product. It'scalled an affiliate product. What is an affiliate product? It's that you sell something on yourwebsite and when people click on the link to buy it, they go to an external websitewith your affiliate link, and when people buy that product on that website through yourlink, you get a commission. So I will show you how you can create it. I go to new product, and I call this one ElementorPro. It's a beautiful page builder -- a pro version. We will use a free version and theregular price is $49 I think. There's no sale and I change the product data from simpleto an external product. The product URL is https://ferdykorp.com/elementor. The buttontext is "more information." Here's the price. I can have an image. Elementor. Actually,it should say Elementor Pro and there can be a category -- plug-ins or tools or software.Okay. Publish. I view the product and now when people click over here they go to ElementorPro or to Elementor, and then I go to pricing and when they buy it, I get my commission. So I go back to my website, and if I takea look at the shop, I would like to say so far so good. There's one more different product you cancreate and we're going to create it right now. I hover over new.
I click on productI call this USB stick. I scroll down and I want to change this from a simple productto a grouped product. I can have SKU over here, let me say 0006; okay that's it. I scrolldown. I go to the product image and I choose USB stick. Awesome. Here I can say choosea size for your USB stick. Over here, I can say electronica. Ok. Publish. And if I viewthe product, look at this. Choose a size for USB stick and there's nothing. So now we needto create three individual products that will be shown over here. So I'm going to createthe first one new product and I call this one USB stick 32-gigabyte. Then I go to catalogvisibility > edit, and I say "hidden." So I hide the product itself from the shop,but it will be shown in this product over here. So that's how I will do that and I canhave the image over here, which is also the USB stick. Then I want to publish it overhere. What I can do now, I can copy it to a new draft, so I will do that and that'smy second product which is 64 gigabyte. I copy it, edit, paste it; okay. Publish. Oh,I need to create a category; update. Then I copy to a new draft and this time I say128 gigabytes. Copy it; paste it; ok. Publish. Awesome. Now I go to the USB stick. I click on editproduct. I close this, I scroll down and I go to linked products and then here it saysgrouped products. I search for 32 G, then for 64 G, and then for a USB and that shouldpop three things up. I choose the third one. Okay. Update. Now if I view the product itsays "Read More," so I can click over here. So I go to this individual product, I clickon edit product and I say this one is $19.95 -- update. View the product and I go to theshop, there it is. Then I click on those two, copy them, open them in the new top. I totallyforgot the price. Edit, CMD tap, CTRL tab open or edit, sometimes I say things wrongand then I just continue. So this one is $29.95 -- update, and the third one 128 G is $39.95.I know it's expensive but it's just to illustrate a point. Close it. Close it. Refresh the pageand now I can say I want to have three of these or two five of these and two of these.I click on Add to Cart. View the cart and there they are: 32, 64 and 128. So if I take a look at the shop now we havecreated six different products --- a simple product, a variable product, a service product,a downloadable product, an external affiliate product, and a grouped product. So with those six things you can create almostany product you have in mind and in that way you can fill up your store with a lot of beautifulproducts. So now we have six products. I want to do something. I want to talk about upsellsand cross-sells. So I go to the first product the hoodie andI click on edit product. I scroll down and go to the product data and then I want togo to linked products. I can do two things.
I can do an upsell and I can do a cross-sell.Upsell is showing a product on the same page as the product that people are looking forand then suggesting other products. So if I would say USB, I can grab this one as anupsell and I can go for the t-shirt. And if I update it and I view the product in a newtab holding command or control on the PC, here below, I will see this. You may alsolike and those two products. If I go to t-shirt, I see related products, it sets automatically.But you can also decide what you want to show over here by doing upsells. Then there's cross-sells. If I want to goto the checkout. So I want to grab this, add to the cart, view the cart. I can also showsomething over here. So if I would go to the products and I go to a T-Shirt. I can sayat the checkout, I want to have a cross sell which is Elementor. Update. And now if I refreshit, since the T-Shirt is over here. If I remove this and I go again to the shop and then tothe checkout, or to the cart and I remove the other t-shirts, the black ones; it's stillthere. But if I go to the shop now and again to the cart, it is not there. Why? BecauseI have no t-shirt over here. So based on what you have in your cart, you can show cross-sells.Well, I personally do not like to use it but if I go to the hoodie, it gives you a littlebit more control about what you want to show over here. So you can do upsells like that.Okay, if I take a look at the shop, it's quite a big shop like this; the images are big andI like to have a sidebar over here at the right. So how can I do that? I close thisand I go to the customizer. We use Estra theme. If you use a different theme there are differentways to adjust this. But in the Estra theme you can go to the sidebar and by default,there's no sidebar. But I can say on a WooCommerce website or on the WooCommerce pages, WooCommerce,I want to have a right sidebar and at a single product I want to have the default one, whichis this one and that is no sidebar. So right here, I see some space but there'snothing, why? We need to add some widgets. So I click on publish, then I close this andthen it looks like this.
Now, I want to add a few widgets. How can I do that? I go overhere and then I can go to widgets, or I go to the dashboard and then at appearance, Ican go to widgets. A widget is an area in your website in the sidebar that gives yourwebsite more functionalities. So you can have an active product filter, you can have archives,audio, the cart, custom HTML -- you can filter products, you can have a gallery and all thosethings over here. So what I can do; I can take a look at the main sidebar but there'salso a WooCommerce sidebar. If I open this, I can drag widgets into the sidebar. So letme see. What I like is filtered products. I don't see the whole text. So let me dragthis over here to see it --- filter products by price. I like that one. It's automaticallysaved. So if I go to the website now, I can go to the shop and there it is --- filterby price. What does it mean? I can say I want to search for a product that is between $0and $50, if I click on filter, this will update and only the products within zero and fiftydollars will be shown over here. So if I would say between $50 and $300, itwill update and you only see this one because this one is $300. If I make this a littlebit cheaper and I filter, it there's no product, and in that way you can filter products byprice. What else? If I take a look over here, youcan take a look at product categories. I can click over here and I can select the WooCommercesidebar, and add the widget. Then I can configure it. I can say categories you can order themby name or category, you can show them as a drop-down product accounts, how many productsthere are per category. You can show hierarchy like the subcategories and if I save it, andI take a look, I refresh the page, it looks like this --- categories and it looks reallybeautiful, really clean. I really like Estra. If you want to see it a different way or youdon't see it this way, you can click on customize, go to Global >
Container, and if you takea look at the WooCommerce layout, you can say make it Boxed or Content Boxed, and thenthere's no box any more over here. Or Full Width/Contained like everything is right now,or Full Width/Stretched. What does it mean? It means that everything from the shops totallyfrom the left to the right of the screen. So if I make the screen smaller, it is stilltotally from the left to the right. Well, I don't like that. I prefer the default one which is in thiscase Boxed. So I like this. I have not changed anything, so I'll leave it as it is. I closeit without saving. So like that, then there's another one; you can have the cart. Let mesee Cart, cart where are you, the cart. I can also drag it again. I can also changethe order. So if I collapse everything, I can change the order like that and I wantto bring the cart down. So if I open it, there are few options -- height if it's empty, soI click on save, refresh the page and if I scroll down, there it is - our cart. It looksbeautiful. Only the check out looks a little bit weird. And if I make it empty, by closingthings over here it will be hidden. So if I go to the shop, it is gone. But ifI add something,
I go to hoodie and I add it to the cart, and I go to the shop thenit appears.So that's how it works. There's another thing you can do. We can show a fewfeatured products. So if I go to the widgets, I can search CMD+F or CTRL + F on PC, featured.I don't see them. Okay, that's not working. So I can search for products by rating, orproducts. If I say products and I select WooCommerce sidebar, let me see. All products. Okay, hereI can say featured products; show three and I want to show the featured products. Orderby: date, or price, or random. I do random. Descending or ascending, it doesn't matterwhen it's random. I can hide free products and I can show hidden products. I want tohide hidden products. Save it, and what you will see now is exactly nothing. Why? We don'thave featured products yet. So what I can do, I can go to the back end,then I go to products, all products, what you see over here is a star and it says featured.So I can select the three featured products, the ebook for instance, the one-hour zoomsession, and, of course, the hoodie. So now if I go to the shop, we see the featured products.So you can feature a product or you can say "on sale products." So if I select that, yousee all the products that are on sale. In this case, it's only the hoodie. So I candelete it and if I refresh it, it's gone. So that's how it works.
You can also add more widgets by going toplugins > add new and then for instance, I have a Facebook like box it's not configuredbut at the shop page I want to focus on shop related widgets. Later, we can take a lookover here; if we want to, we can add more widgets over here. But actually, I like itthe way it is right now. The question is is it necessary because you can also see it overhere. But I'll leave that up to you. Now, I want to take a look at the rest of the page.How can I configure this? I click on customize, I close this, then I want to go to WooCommerceand go through these settings. Store notice, do we want to show that it is a demo store?
Then you see this over here. I'll check it. I go back then that's the product catalog,shop page display. Show the products or do we prefer to show the categories. So if youclick on ebooks then you'll see all the ebooks. You can also do both -- the products and thecategories but I prefer to have only products. Category display: show products in that category.So if someone clicks on a category, for instance, over here, how should it be displayed? Wellthen I want to show the products or I can show the subcategories. So if I would go to merchandise, you wouldsee hoodies and t-shirts which are subcategories of merchandise. I prefer products defaultproduct ordering. It's custom ordering. So if I go back to the shop, it's a custom. SoI can say average rating, or based on the most recent one. So this was the first productwe created and this was the last one. Sort by price ascending or descending, so thisis the cheapest one and this is the most expensive one. I can change that. I say, you know what, default sorting. Youcan also change it over here as a customer. Change it by popularity, average rating, thelatest, low to high, high to low. And you can change the width to something smaller.I see no reason why I should do that. Then you can see the amount of shop columns rightnow is 3, I can say 4 and if I publish it, and I close it, my page becomes a little bitbigger and then it looks like that. So if you prefer that, you can do that. I clickon customize again. I want to bring it back to 3. So I go to the WooCommerce settings,product catalog and I bring this to 3. Then products per page, I want to show nine. Youcan also say 12, and then you need to go to the second page. Then the shop-product structure.Right now, we see an image, we see the category, we see the title, the review and the price.I can put a price on top if I want to and then you see it over here. So you can changeit. I like to have the title on top, then the category, the rating, and the price. I can also show a short description if I haveone, and add to the cart like that. And then you can add it to the cart immediately withoutclicking first on the item. Well, that's up to you, I prefer to turn it off, but I'm ina good mood, I want to turn it on so let's keep that way. I go back, then to the single product, disablethe Breadcrumb, I go to the single product and then over here you see Breadcrumb -- Home/Services/and then the service.
If you go to shop and you go to the hoodie, you also see the subcategory,you see the category merchandise / hoodies / hoodie. If you want to disable to click over here.I think if you have a big webshop, turn it on. Disable it if you have a small webshop.You can disable it. This is handy for navigating through the website. So you think hey, thisis nice hoodie but I think there's a better one. You can click on hoodies and see allthe other hoodies. Go back. Product images. Actually, I leave it as this. I think thequality is great. You can make it bigger but for this, it looks perfect. You can say 500and then the quality becomes a bit better. Then there's the thumbnail cropping. Rightnow, it's a square. You can also say I want that to be a custom 4 x 3 and then you seereal-time update. I like 16x9, but for the images of the store, I don't like it becausethen things will be cropped and it looks a little bit weird. So I can also say uncroppedand that means that one image is bigger than the other depending on how I cropped it beforeI uploaded it. So I prefer a 1x1 and I go back. I go to the cart, and when you clickover here, I go to the cart. Let me see, I need to add something. Add it to the cart.Now it is added. Click over here and it's a bit smaller, that's why those buttons interferewith each other. Enable cross-selling -- this is over here. I can turn it off. Go back.Go to the checkout and then you go to the checkout page, also a little bit smaller thannormal because of this area. Company name fields, do you want that? If you sell to companies,business-to-business, you can say it's required. So you need to have a business in order tobuy things over here. You can also hide it and then this area is gone. Well, I like itto keep it optional. Address line 2 field, well, street addressand the second one, I like to hide it. Just leave your complete address over here. A phonefield, right now, it is required and when it's required, you see am asterisk behindit. I can say optional. So it's optional over here. Highlight required fields with an Asterisks.I like that. So when you need to fill this in, you see this Asterisks. The privacy policy page, well the privacypolicy page -- you need to create one. Let me show you real quick. Publish it. Closeit. So I can create a page. I can call this Privacy policy. Publish; publish, and youcan find privacy policy examples. Privacy policy examples. You can also hire someoneto do it for you, but that's how you can do that and then I go back. I go and add a newpage and I call this one Terms of Service.
I can also fill in the text over here or letsomeone else do it. I go to the WordPress, logo, to the website, to the shop, I go tothe customizer, WooCommerce then I go to the checkout. Then here at privacy policy, I canselect privacy policy, terms and conditions, Terms of Service or terms of conditions, andthen there's this area over here which will be shown here below. You can click here togo to privacy policy page and you can agree to the terms and conditions. So, then you can change this text if you wantto. I like it. I click on publish and then it looks like this. If I go to the checkout,I don't like this area over here and I don't like this space. So how can I change thispage individually. Edit the page and then here at the right, I want to have no sidebar,and I want to have a disable transparent header. Update, preview it, and now we have a normalarea over here with space and this looks beautiful. Same goes for the... let me see, yeah thisarea, it also looks weird. So I click on edit page and I want to do the same. No sidebarand disable the transparent header. Preview. So that looks better. So if I take a look at what we have so far,we have a beautiful shop. I can filter things. I can buy them; add them to the cart. HereI can click on select options, so I want to have an S in white. I want to have 3 add themto the cart. If I view the cart here or over here, or just here, it looks like this. Beautiful.And if I change something then I can update the cart and then the price will be updatedand then we can proceed to the checkout, and then we can fill this in. I think this looksbeautiful and we're working with free tools. I really like this. So talking about how I like it, I can alsochange the colors. Let me show you how you can do that. I close this and I close this.If I go to the customizer, I can change the logo, I can change the colors of the websiteand change the look and feel. How can I do that? I can go to the header, to site identity,right now we have this logo. I can also change the logo and then I can click on upload files> select files and I can go to one of my folders, let me see 6, and I can use this logo forinstance. I can also use a Retina one or I can choose let me see FerdyKorpMediaLogoRetina.I use this one I can optimize it, remove the dashes. Copy it; paste it; select it. I skipthe cropping and it looks like that. It has beautiful color. If I want to check that color,I use a color picker.
I have tutorial about it, or I go to my folder, to folder 6, FKMedia,to the colors and then there's the first code. I copy it and then I can change it. Okay.I've copied it. I will paste it later. First, I want to add my retina logo whichis actually the same. I can change the width, you can make it bigger or smaller, and I canhave a site icon over here. Right now, we see WordPress. If I click here on select siteicon, upload files, it needs to be square file and the best is when it is a png. So here it's 200x200, FerdyKorp. I open it;select; skip cropping and now we have a beautiful area over here. If you have a lot of pagesthat are open, and once you can see you're on the FK media website, so that's what Ilike. So we still have the color. Paste it. I click on publish. I want to go back, backand then I go to global > colors > base colors and right now it's an orange color - the themecolor. I want to paste this color over here which is more purple. You don't see it everywhereyet but I can also paste it over here, the link color and everything that's a link nowis purple. Also over here this area and then there'sthe link hover. I would like to use a different color for that. Copy, that one and then theheading color can also be this one. Publish. Close it and now the color orange is gone.Oh no. Also here when you change, I can click on customize again, but with a few configurationsyou can change the look and feel or colors of your website. So let me see. I go to global again. Buttons> colors. I click on colors and then the background is this one. When I hover over it, it canbe this one but a bit darker for instance.
Ok. Publish. Ok then I go to the menu overhere. I want to make it capitals. I prefer that and I can do that by going to menus overhere, main menu. I click on home and by the way home, I can remove it because if I clickon the logo over here, I go to the home page same with Apple. You go to a certain page,you want to go back, there's no home, click on the logo and go to the home page. So Iremove this one by clicking here and then remove, then at About, I want to make capitalshere at the Navigation Label by clicking here and then change it to About. Shop capitals,Contact and publish. Close it. So this is the shop page and everything is in the colorof our theme of what we want. One more thing over here. I want to changethe logo. How can I do that? I can hover over here and I can edit the footer. This is Elementor.I've complete tutorials about Elementor. If you go to YouTube, you can search for "ElementorFerdy" and I have ton of tutorials about this subject. it's a beautiful page builder andyou can learn a lot about it. If you want to know which video is the right one, go toFerdyKorp.com and then two tutorials, how to make a website for free, and then thisvideo. That's the most up-to-date one. Right now, I click here. I want to changethe image > upload files > select files and I like to have a white logos of everythingI have. So if I say space, it's the white logo, same logo but now in white, and I insertit and I make it a bit bigger, and create a bit more space. Advanced : uncheck, button:increase, like that. Update. Over here I can add my Instagram and same for those other ones, I have no LinkedIn, no Twitter. Update. Okay. Take a look at thechanges, then you only see the footer. So I need to click over here and I need to clickover there. Again, and now I can go to the shop again. So far, so good. I like it. So guys, ladies, are you still having fun?I hope so. Let's go to the next subject - we're going to talk about the settings of WooCommerce.So we go to the dashboard, then we go to WooCommerce, reports -- no, just kidding -- we go to settings
.No. It's not even funny. You need to leave your address over here, I think it's mandatoryin a lot of countries. So I fill in the address and then there's the question where do youwant to sell to. Do you want to sell to all countries or a specific counter or to allcountries except for Burkina Faso in South Africa. I've been to both countries. I lovethem. I love Africa. So that's why I thought about that country. I can also say I wantto sell to specific countries and I would like to say the United States of America andCanada. The shipping locations well, I would like to say ship to all countries you sellto. Who will ship to all countries if you do not sell to all countries. So default customerlocation, you can say based on the shop base address or geo-locate, or geo-locate withpage caching support. I would like to say geo-locate so they see automatically if somebodycomes from Canada or from United States. Enable tax rates, we will talk about tax later,so I'll leave it as this. Enable coupons, we will also talk about coupons later. Thenthe currency, we've talked about it already. I leave it as it is. Save all the changesand then we need to configure geo-locate. So what I will do. I hold commands and I clickover here. So I can go to the documentation of it and I can generate 25 license keys.Well, why not do it? MaxMind GeoLocation. Okay. Sign up for GEOLIGHT2. I'll leave mycompany, name, address -- all that stuff. Choose one, the industry, eCommerce, Netherlands.Well, for me it falls on their language location and I can leave my email address, my phoneand then I agree and I say continue. Thank you for signing up. You will receive an emailwith instructions then you grab the API key. I need to create a password and I copy thetoken and I click on reset password. Okay. I paste the code over here and now GeoLocateworks. It says it's not active but if I just createdit, it needs to take a while. So I go to general again and that's fine. I go to products, Iclose this, I close this and the shop page which one is it? Well it's already shop page.You don't need to change this. Add to cart behavior: Redirect to the cart page aftersuccessful addition. If you have a one product page or website you can say that when peoplebuy something, they add it to the cart here at shop. If I say I add this to the cart,I immediately will be redirected to the checkout. I prefer to leave it unchecked. So when peopleadd something to the cart, they stay on the page and they can buy more stuff. Enable AJAXadd to Cart buttons on archives: yes. Just leave that on. Placeholder image. Leave itas it is. The weight, you can change it. O leave it as it is. Enable reviews: yes. Show"verified owner" label on customer reviews. That means that if somebody bought somethingand they will become a customer when they buy something, and they leave a review, theyare a "verified owner."
You can check that. Reviews can only be left by verified owners-- that's up to you. If you don't want strangers to leave a review, maybe they are competitorsand say negative things, you can check this, so that only people who bought your stuffthey can leave a review. I think that's a good thing. Product ratings. Enable star ratings on reviews.If I take a look at the hoodie, you see star ratings. You can check that and star ratingsshould be required, not optional. Yes. I like it to be required. I save the changes andthen we can go to inventory. Enable stock management, hold stock for 60 minutes. Whatdoes it mean? If I have over here 50 hoodies in stock and I say I want to add 10 to thecart. I go to the cart and I change this to 10, update the cart.It is actually now reserved. So if a different customer comes now and he wants to buy 41hoodies. It will say sorry we only have 40 left, and the question is how long shouldsomebody have the first right to buy those. So I would like to say 10 minutes. That meansthat if somebody put them in the basket, he has ten minutes, the first right to buy thosehoodies. If someone else comes and wants to buy 41 then it will say sorry, that's notpossible. But after ten minutes, if he's still shopping, then he loses the right and somebodyelse can buy 41. So that's how it works. I like to say ten minutes because I think in10 minutes people can buy things on the Internet. Notifications - Enable stock notifications:yes. Enable out of stock notifications: yes. You get an email when you have a low stockfor product and when you have no stock anymore for a product. That email goes to this emailaddress so you can choose one. Low stock threshold: I would like to say 20, depending on whereyou things. If you buy things from China it takes four weeks before they arrive. Thenyou can say you know what, I have 50 left. So depending on how much you sell. If yousell five products per day, that means you have ten days left to get new ones. So inthat way, so in that case, I would like to say 300, if you have 300 left. It totallydepends on what you sell and how fast you can get new ones. Out of stock thresholds:yeah that's zero.
Hide out of stock items from the catalog.So if I've no stock for a certain product, I can hide it from the catalog, but I I liketo leave it into the catalog. Stock display: always display. So right now, it says thereare 50 or only show quantity remaining in stock. Only this much less in stock insteadof in stock. So a small difference, this is the difference -- only 50 left in stock orjust 50 in stock. So you can change the text there, or never show the quantity remainingin stock. So I save the changes and it says nothing. It just says in stock, not how much.Well I like this first one; save the changes and then I go to the third one --- downloadableproducts. File download method, so it will be forced download so when people buy it,then immediately the file will be downloaded. Does a download require a login: no. Whenpeople buy something, they can immediately download the thing they bought. Grant accessto downloadable products after payment: yes, of course. First I want them to pay and thenthey can immediately download it. File name: append a unique string to filename for security.Do this otherwise people can, by reason maybe figure out to where the download pages are.So if they see there's an e-book that's called "make money online," again try ferdykorpwp.com/make-money-online.pdfand if you add a string then it will probably be called something like this. So, yeah, turnit on. Save the changes. And then we can skip shipping because we will talk about it later.We can skip payments and we can go to accounts and privacy. I skip payments because we'regoing to talk about it later. Accounts and privacy -- allow customers toplace orders without an account: no. I want everybody to be to get an account.
Allow customersto log in an existing accounts during checkout. So they go to the checkout and they can leaveolder details, but if they already are a member they can log in over here and then there isall this information that will be filled in already because we contain that information,because we have that information already that's linked to the account. So I turn it on; savethe changes; refresh the page. You don't see it over here because I'm logged in alreadyso then you don't see that. But if someone is not logged in they can log in over here.So I turn it on. Account creation: allow customers to createan account during the checkout - yes, of course. So while you're here for the first time, youcan create an account by filling in these details and then you can create an account.Allow customers to create an account on the "my account" page: no. Only when people buysomething, they can create an account. When creating an account, automatically generatean account username for the customer based on the name, surname or email -- yes. Theycannot use their own account name, we are creating it for them. When creating an accountautomatically, generate an account password, yes and then I will show you later how youcan change that. Account erasure projects: remove personaldata from orders on request - yes. When people want to remove all the data, we should honorthat. Remove access to downloads on requests - yes. Allow personal data removal: allowpersonal data to be removed in bulk from orders. I'll check this because I to keep the dataas long as people don't want me to erase that data. Then there is the privacy policy, we'vetalked about it already in the customizer. Then I can say I want to remove certain inactiveaccounts after a few months or a few days. I leave it all as it is. I save the changes.Then I go to emails.
Those are the emails I get when there's a new order. I get an emailon my personal email account when an order is cancelled. I get an email from that whenthe order is filled, I can email about it and this is all for the customer. When theorder is on hold, when we're processing the order, when the order is completed and thegreat thing is that we can change some things. So if I click on completed order, I can clickon manage, I can change the subject, I can change the email heading -- "thanks for shoppingwith us," I can say "thanks for shopping at FerdyKorpWP.com" so people recognize whereit's from. Additional content: thank you for shoppingwith us, if you have any question feel free to reach out to us. We are happy to help you.Save the changes and if you want to take it to the next level, you can change the customPHP and in that way change the order. I do not have much knowledge about PHP. I wouldask someone else to do it for me. So we scroll down, all those emails from,from who is it? You can say it's from PS5 tools, chargers and stickers or you can justsay it's from ferdy korpershoek and then PS5 shop. From the address ferdykorp@gmail.com.The header image, so right now if I save this and I scroll down again. I can take a lookat the preview of an email template. Right now, it looks like this. Well, it screamsWooCommerce standard. So how can we make this a little bit better. I close this and I wantto go to media library. I hold command, I click and then there's this image over here.I want to copy the link. Copy; and I want to paste it over here. Then there's the footer text. I want to say,"Thank you for your trust in us," and then there's the base color. So I go back to thecolors, copy and paste it. Then we can change those colors and I like it the way it is.So right now, if I take a look, it is a bit more personalized. It's also a little bitbig, so I can grab a different image, media library, grab the smaller one, copy and pasteit. And if it's still a little bit big, what we can do, refresh (that's the same one).
Okay, what I can do now, I can go to the library, I can click on add new > select files. I uploadit again. This one, this time the normal one. I can click over here. I can click on editimage and I can change it to 250 pixels and click on scale and I think that should dothe trick. Close it. Click on library again to refresh it and then over here, it is madesmaller. I can copy the link and I can paste it over here. Save it and then refresh thisand now this looks better. FK Media -- different color, and the text will be created basedon what kind of email they will get. I can also click here, then you see text overhere. You can change it. Okay. That was it about emails. Then there is something about integrationbut we are not going to integrate something. Of course, only the MaxMind license key. Ihad it in my email so I should paste it over there and then I should go to advanced, thecart page. Well this is all already okay. Terms and conditions, choose the right pagefor that and you can change the checkout endpoint URLs. So right now, if people want to pay,this they go to ferdykorp.com/order-pay. If you have a different language, you can changethis to a different language and over here it says what it's about. So you can changethose and also those. I'll leave it as it is. I save the changes and then I go to RESTAPI. I will do nothing with that. Webhooks: no. Legacy API: no. WooCommerce, if you wantto, you can allow them to get to know better how people are working with WooCommerce andthen they can make their product better. I leave it as it is. I save it. Now I want to take a look at coupon codes.So over here at WooCommerce, I can go to coupons, it's a little bit hard to pronounce but Iknow that you know what I mean. So here I want to add my first coupon code, so I clickover here or if you're in a really good mood, you can click over here and it will bringyou to the same page. Here we can enter the coupon code and keep in mind that this isthe code that people need to fill in in order to get discount. So I can say 10% withoutcapitals. I can give a description -- you applied 10% discount on your complete order.Then I scroll down a bit, coupon data. We have three tabs and the first one is general. The discount type -- we can have fixed discount.For instance, a fixed amount of money. We can have percentage or a fixed product discountfor a certain product. I say percentage and the amount is 10. If you want to know moreabout all these options, you can hover over here. Value of the coupon. We can allow freeshipping.
So I also can say Free Shipping and then remove this area over here, removethis and just check this and when people enter this free shipping, they get free shipping.I will use a percentage of then and I say over here 10%. But that's what you also cando. I can also say that this will be valid until the 31st of May 2020, and after thatit's not valid anymore. So I can send email to my email list, untilthe 31st you can have 10% discount on my awesome webshop, where you can buy zoom sessions andstuff. Usage restriction, the second tab, the minimum spend. I can say this coupon canonly be applied when people spend a minimum of twenty dollars. Let's make it 10 or a maximumof $500. So when they buy something for $600, they cannot apply the coupon code and whenthey buy something below $10, they can also not apply this. If you want this coupon codeto be the only coupon code that can be active at the same time, you can check this. Becausewhen you check this, visitors cannot apply three different coupon codes for this websiteand get a lot of discount. So you can only use this one, not in combination with anothercoupon code. Excludes sale items, so if I go to my websiteand I go to the shop, I see I have one item for sale. I can say it will not be appliedfor the product that is for sale. We could also say apply this for only one product,for instance, the t-shirt or exclude a product for instance the t-shirt, or different products.We can do the same with categories. You can say it is only for a certain category or weexcluded only for a certain category, and I can also say, you know, some people thathave bought for thousands of dollars on my website, I can track their email addressesand then I can put them over here so WooCommerce knows only people with this email address,those users can apply this coupon code. So I can say to people that bought for thousandsof dollars, we want to thank you for everything you've bought, we give you extra discount.So that is what you can do and then there's a third tab usage limits. Usage limits percoupon. I can say this coupon code is only valid for 25 times. Limit usage to x amountof items. I can say the discount will only be applied to the first three items. You cando that. I leave it to unlimited and I can say use this limit per user. So over hereI can say everybody can only use it one time. So the first 25 people before the 31st ofMay can use this coupon code. You need to spend a minimum of ten dollarsand a maximum of $500. You cannot use it in conjunction with other coupon codes. You cannotuse it for sale items and that's it.
So I click on publish and now I want to test it.So what I want to do, first I want to show you how not to use it. I go over here andI remove everything, and then I go to the shop, I scroll down and here I see the sale.So if I add this to the cart and I want to view the cart, and I say 10% it will not beapplied, why? This coupon is not applicable to select products, and why because it isa sale. So okay, next option, shop. I go for this ebook. It will also not be applied, why?Because it's below $10, the minimum spend. Okay. I think it's clear. Let's do somethingthat is applicable -- the USB stick. So I want to have a few of those, add them to thecart, view the cart and now if I say 10%, apply it and now it says coupon code appliedsuccessfully. So here I see 10% of the subtotal is beingsubtracted and total amount is still 90% left. Awesome. So that's how it works we can dosomething else. I can add a new coupon code and this time I say $20 -- get a discountoff $20. Okay. Discount type - fixed. Coupon amount - $20. It will be available for anunlimited time. There's no minimum spend, no maximum spend. Well the minimum shouldbe $20 at least, otherwise people can buy things for free. So let's say minimum is $50,no maximum. Individual use, so it cannot be used in conjunction with other coupon codes,and it's for all products, it's for unlimited usage per coupon and per user, I publish it.I think I need to refresh the page and then I say $20, apply the coupon -- coupon codeapplied successfully. Now the other one is gone. So you see it cannot be used in conjunctionwith others. If I would turn it off, over here update, then let's see, 10percent, applyand then again $20, apply. It says "Sorry, coupon code 10percent already has been appliedit cannot be used in conjunction with other coupons." Okay. So if I would go to all the coupons,I hope I pronounced it right.
So over here 10percent, I turn this on-off, refresh andout there is 10percent and there is $20 and I can use them both. Okay. What else? Ok,the third one, I say, or everything small capitals, ebook, get $5 discount or off forthe e-book, I don't know if that's correct English, Grammarly, is it? It seems to be.I can check fixed product discount, how much: $5, for: the e-book. Okay. I publish it. I refresh this page. Thee-book is over here, so if I say ebook, I apply the coupon. Coupon code successfullyapplied. There it is. But if I remove this, it says, "Sorry, it seems the coupon ebookis invalid, it has not been removed from your order." Why? Because it's only applicableto the e-book. So that's how we can play around with discounts and discounts are a beautifulway to attract visitors. You can send an email to your email list, you can even go to Facebook,do advertising and say, "Hey, get 20% discount only for the first 25 people." In that wayyou can get more clients, get more sales, get more money and give that money away topeople that need it or do other things with it. So that's what you can do with discounts. So now let's talk about my favorite subject- NOT. Let's talk about taxes. So I go to the backend, and I'm not talking about thestate Texas, I'm talking about taxes --- paying tax to the government. So let's go to WooCommerce> Settings and in general, I scroll down and it asks me enable taxes, do you want to enabletaxes? Yes, I want to. When I do that and I save it, there appears a new tab over herewhich is called tax. Prices entered with tax, do you want that? And here you see explanationwhat it means. When you add taxes, that means that when something is $20, then the taxeswill be added and it will be something like $26. Well, I prefer not to do that. So I say,no, I will enter prices exclusive of Tax. The question is do you want to have priceswith tax? If you are focusing on people that want to buy things for the personal life,I would like to say include taxes in the total price and then still keep the item $20 andthen you will subtract the taxes from your profit. So I will say yes. If you sell tobusinesses, I would say, no enter prices exclusive of tax.
Calculate the tax based on the customershipping address, customer billing address or the shop base. While I do the customershipping address. Shipping classes -- you can a standard, reducedor zero and I say shipping tax class based on the cart items, why? Because every itemcan have its own taxes, like standard, reduced or zero. Rounding -- round tax at subtotal level insteadof rounding per line. Well if I go to the website, I go to the shop or over here viewto Cart, do I want to show the taxes over here per item or only here at the total? SoI say only at the total. You can add more tax classes. Right now, we have the standardone which is always there, then reduced and then zero. And if you add some over here,it will be added over here and you can assign products to your own made taxes rate, right.Those two are enough for me. I will talk about it later. Display prices in the shop excludingtalks or including? Well it depends again, do you sell to people that buy it for personaluse or for their business? I like to talk about including tax. Okay, you know what?I will do as if I will sell to business so here I say no. I will enter prices exclusiveof tax and then here display prices in shop excluding tax, because businesses can alwayssubtract that and get their money back from the government. So they don't have to payfor that. Of course, they pay it at the moment itself but they get it back from government. Display prices different cart and check out-- well, then I say include tax. So at the checkout, they can see the amount of tax.Price display -- I can say this is ex. VAT, that it means it's without the VAT. And ifI save this and I go to the shop, everywhere I see price, I see this is the amount ex.VAT. So let's leave it like that. I will show you a few things and then I will also showyou a way to do it on automation. But first, I want to show you how to do it manually.
So I like the settings, what we will do now, we can go to the different rates and if Igo to standard for instance, as I told you I sell to the United States and to Canada.Well, per state there are different taxes for different kind of products. So if I goto taxjar.com/states, I can see per state what the taxes are. So I click over here andOregon does not have sales tax. California 7.25% and in that way you can see per statewhat the amount of taxes people have to pay. I will show you how it works. For instance,I want to go for the United States, so I type United States and there it is. I select it,I can say for the state California, I can even narrow it down by choosing a zip or acity and the rate is let's say %7.25 as far as I know. The tax name -- I leave it as itis. The priority is okay and I want to also add Taxes over the shipping costs. So everybodythat enters my shop from California has a rate of %7.25 of taxes. So I click on insertrow and I can say United States and I can say Florida, and there it's maybe 10%. I can create something for Canada and forthe whole country Canada, there will be 15 percent of taxes. If I think this is perfect,I can save the changes and excuse me I need to use a point. So I say 15, 7.25 not a commaand here is 10. Yes. Save it like that. So when somebody comes to my website from Florida,they pay 10% taxes on everything. California 7.25% and from Canada, 15 percent. Then fordifferent products I have a reduced rate. So again I can say from the United States,California, there is only 5%. For instance, for books in the Netherlands when people buybooks they only pay 9% taxes instead of 21%, which is the regular taxes. So I save it andthen there's also the zero rate, inserts and that is zero. Let's say for the whole worldand also here. Wait, let me save it. For the whole world, let's say nothing over here sothe whole world that enters my website pays 5% reduced rate and the whole world pays 10%,and I select this one and I remove this one. So the whole world pays 10% for the normalrate, 5% for the reduced rate and 0% for the zero rate. What I can do now, I can go to my shop andwhat I know is that digital products have no taxes. So I click over here. It's not inevery country. I want to edit this product, so I scroll down and now over here, I cango to the tax status and I can change the class to zero, because it's a digital product.So everything is profit which I really like.
In Netherlands, it's not the case I pay alot of taxes for the courses I sell. So then I go to a different product. For instance,the hoodie -- where are you -- I click over here and this falls in the category of standard.So it's a 10 percent. Okay. And let's say I go to another product -- the zoom session,that one is reduced. Just for the sake of the illustration. So if I go and view theproduct and I go to the shop, let me see there's a few things over here I want to remove everything.Okay. If I add this to the cart I pay no taxes at all. If I buy this one I pay the full taxesand if I select an option over here, here it is $19.95 and if I go to the shop, viewthe cart, you see all the prices are included in the tax. So from the $32.95 there's a smallpart that is taxes. And we see that over here $3.46 are taxes. Okay. I want to change it. What I want todo? I want to go over here, I want to say price is entered with tax -- yes, and thenover here I can say display prices during cart excluding tax. Save the changes. I canalso remove this over here and now if I, refresh there's zero percent of taxes so it's theoriginal price. Here, you see it's cheaper now. The taxes amount is subtracted and thenhere you see the taxes added. So you can play around with these settings. I am going tomy son. He is crying. It's a 12 o'clock at night. I will be back with you in a few minutes. So the question is do you want to show yourprices exclusive taxes or inclusive taxes on your website, and where do you want todisplay the taxes and do the taxes come upon on top of this price or will the taxes besubtract this from the total amount like over here. Like it says $27.23, but it is $29.95actually. And then here you see how much taxes there are. You can decide that based on thissetting and then this ending and this setting. Also, this one.
So let me show you a betterway. I go to plugins > add new and I search for WooCommerce services. There it is, I clickon install now > activate and now we need to connect jetpack to activate WooCommerceservices. So I will do that. Install jetpack and connect. I want to show you every stepof the way. It will save you a ton of time when your taxes are automated. It's a littlebit hard to enter all the taxes of all the places in the world, it will show everythingcorrect. Use my email address? Yes. It seems that I have an account already. You can createa new account. It's authorizing my connection and again you need to create a new accountbelow if you don't have an account already, and it says you're all set! Okay. Got it.Thanks. Now, if I go to WooCommerce settings, I goto tax. I can select automated taxes and I can say enable. Save the changes. Your settingshave been saved. So I can do nothing over here, because it's all on autopilot. So nowwe will take care of this. So let's talk about shipping. this next stepover here.
I close this and now we can add shipping, what I can do? I can add a shippingzone over here. Let's start simple. The zone name, I will call this the Netherlands, becausethat's where I come from. The website sees where I come from so I will choose a differentname and say the Netherlands and then I need to save it because I'm not shopping. I'm notdelivering in the Netherlands or selling to the Netherlands. So I can go to WooCommerce> Settings and I can go to General, leave this, and then I can say I also sell to theNetherlands. Save it. I go back to shipping > edit. I select the Netherlands. Okay. Isave it and I add a shipping method. There's a flat rate, the free shipping and the localpickup. I will choose a flat rate and what I can say, it's really simple. I can editit over here and I can say it's not taxable. The costs are ten dollars when I sell something.So no matter what I sell, how much people will buy, it will always be ten dollars. Soover here I go to the checkout or I view the cart, I scroll down and it says: flat rateten dollars, shipping to the Netherlands. I can change the address over here. If youdon't see that yet, you can change the address and then based on that it will say how muchit will cost. Update. But what I also can do, I can say to people, if their sub totalamount is more than $50, I can give them free shipping. So I can add a shipping method,flat rate, free shipping > add the shipping method, and then I click on edit > free shippingrequires a minimum order amount of $50. Apply the minimum order rule before the coupon discounts.So when somebody buys for $60 and they get $20 discount then it's $40, they still shouldpay for shipping. So apply the minimum order rule before the coupon discount - no, after.Save the changes, refresh. So now it should be free. They can select free shipping nowbecause they have a total amount of more than $50. So if I would remove this one, it is$49.40, they still need to pay for the shipping because it's below $50, even though it's justten cents.
So if I were them, I would buy something extra -- a nice t-shirt or somethinglike that. But, there's a better way. In order to get that, let's go to the pluginsadd new, leave this, and then I search for table rate from jem. There it is, updateda month ago, a lot of likes. And I click on Install Now > Activate. Then I go to WooCommerce> Settings > Shipping. I remove the Netherlands, Delete and I click on add the shipping Zoneand this time, I call the Netherlands again and you can also add Canada and United States-- all the places you ship to and also here I select the Netherlands. I want to save itfirst and I add a shipping method, and this time as on the flat rate but here it is tablerate. Interesting I click on add shipping method it is to plug in we just installedand then here I click on edit and I can go to the pro version or I can get discount fora pro version. I don't use the pro version. I can add a new list of shipping methods.I enable this one. I call this one PostNL or UPS because I use those to deliver my orders,and then I can do it based on the weight or on the price. Before I do that, I don't want to disablethe tax.
So I want to say total price. So when the total amount that people buy is between$0 and $20 or $19.99, I want a shipping rate of ten dollars. Then I want to add a new one.When people buy a total amount between $20 $49.99, I want it to be $15. From $50 until$99.99, I want it to be 20 and when people buy for more than $100, I want it to be free.So I say $0. I save the changes and now let's take a look what happens. I go to shop and I go back to the cart. Thesubtotal is now $49.90, so what will it be? $15, why? Because between $20 and $49, itis $15. If I would make this $20 now, I save the changes and I refresh the page and itis $20. So I say $15 over here. What does it mean? If I buy something that is below$20, I pay $10. So let me see if I can do that. Only the t-shirt, now I pay $10. IfI have a few more let's say 4, then I pay $20 because it's now a subtotal of around$80 and that is still between $50 and $99.99 which is $20. If I buy one more than I exceed,excuse me, two more, now my total or subtotal is above $100 so there is free shipping. Sothat's how it works.
You can also do it based on weights. So over here, and then you needto go to your products for instance the t-shirt, edit the product and then you can say, atshipping, the total weight -- how heavy this is. Or when you have variations, let me see,variations > add a variation, and then you can go to, let me see, the weight. Go andsay it's 0.6, click on okay. If you expand it the weight is everywhere the same now.So you can save it here below. It's already saved. Well, you can update it and then basedon the weight, if you would apply that, you can decide how much things will cost. I preferthe pricing but it's up to you. If you want to make it more complicated oradd different things you can search for WooCommerce best shipping plugin and you can also saypremium because then you get better tools than the free ones. So that's what you cando. So how are you doing so far? The fact thatyou are here at this time stamp in the video, says that you are series in making a website.So congratulations with that. You're really doing a great job and when I say a website,I mean a webshop. So now we're going to talk about a nice subject. I like the subject reallymuch about stripe. For me, it took years to figure out how it worked. That doesn't meanthat I worked for it many years, but I postponed it for years because I thought it was so complicated.And then I find out found out how it worked and actually it's quite simple. It's not applicablein every country. You can pay from anywhere in the world with stripe, but to set up anaccount with stripe that is not possible in every country. So let me show you a list withall the supported countries and check the list online because the list is growing.
Australia,Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan,Luxembourg, Netherlands, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Spain, Sweden,Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States, Italy, Portugal, Portugal, okay, that wasweird, and Switzerland. So if your country is not on the list, thereare workarounds but this video is not talking about that. I'm from Netherlands and I willshow you how I got my stripe account activated and I will also show you how you can use itwith WooCommerce. So the first thing we need to do, we needto go to stripe. stripe.com and it says, "The new standards in online payments," it is.You can start now. So I click there and I can create a stripe account over here. Myemail is info@ferdykorpershoek.nl. My full name is Ferdy Korpershoek, I create a password,I confirm my password and then I click on create account, and there I am. Well, thank you for watching this tutorial...no. We're going to talk about more things of course. So now I need to configure a fewthings. Welcome Ferdy, follow these steps to get started. Find the right integrationfor your business. Browse our docs. Okay. No, I will skip that. I need to verify myemail. So I go to my gmail account, there it is. Stripe. Verify email to start. I clickon verify email address, and then I can fill in my password, continue. Another robot. Okay,I want to activate my stripe account, so I click over here. Before starting to processpayments tell us a few details about you and products or services you're selling. Startnow. I'm from the Netherlands. My business website is https://ferdykorpershoek.com. Businessdescription: I sell digital products --- other digital goods. Describe what you want to sell?I sell a course where I teach people how to make money online through affiliate marketing. What kind of business? Well this is Dutch.It is a cooperation. The name of my company is Ferdy and Anna Media. So you need to fillin the details of your business over here. I scroll down. My legal name is FerdinandKorpershoek. Do you own more than 25% of the business. Yes. What percentage do I own -- 50.Job title, I am CEO. My birthday. This is optional so I leave that. Again, address,my company name again -- Ferdy and Anna Media. Support phone number and then the bank details.How to make use of the two-step thing. Go to the text messages. I confirm my phone number.I fill in the code I receive on my phone. I want to copy this code somewhere on my phone.Okay, done that. Submit application. Right now, it's being reviewed. Thanks for submitting,we're verifying your details which should take just a few moments. This is where youcan see how much you can or you have earned. So I got an email thank you for submitting.They will review everything and they said to me: "Unfortunately we were unable to verifysome of your personal information." So I needed to fill in some more things. Proof of my identity,so I send an image of my passport and proof of my home address.
Well what I needed todo, I used a bank statement with my complete name on it. So you need to get a file thatshows your complete name. It can be from a bank, utility bill, bank statement, a letterfrom a government institution as long as it has your complete name. So I found the document,I uploaded it and then I got access. So since my account is active, I want to integrateit with my WooCommerce website, so that people can pay through stripe using their creditcard or Paypal or something else. So maybe your account is activated already,maybe not. What you can do, you can test it out. So we can go to developers over here,when you're on the dashboard, and then we can go to API keys. Then click on a view testdata and then we can use this publish book key, copy it now go to your website. I willgo to mine. To the backend, then I will go to plugins. Add new and I search for "WooCommercestripe." I click over here on Install Now. Activate it. It's by WooCommerce by the way.Then I go to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments and there are all those options now over herefrom stripe. So I can add credit card, I can add Ideal if I'm from the Netherlands, butI will uncheck this now, because we're going to test with credit card. But, there are alot of options over here. I click on Save Changes, then I scroll down I want to managethis. I can remove Stripe over here, so this is what people will see - pay with your creditcard, pay with your credit card via Stripe. Then we need to enable the test mode and thisis somehow weird. So I will remove this and then there's the publish book key. I copiedit. Then we can review the test key token, copy it and I paste it over here and thenwe need to have a test webhook secret. How can we get it? We go over here to web hooksbelow API keys. I create a new endpoint and then the endpoint URL, go to your websiteyou can find it over here.
Copy it. Paste it. Description - optional. Use the most recentversion and then events to send, I want to go for charge because I want to charge peoplewhen they buy things. I add the endpoint and then I can click here to review the token.The signing secret and I can paste it here. Then I scroll down. I can have a statementdescription, FerdyKorpWP shop for instance, capture charge immediately -- of course, enablepayment request buttons, Apple pay, chrome payment request API by using Apple pay -- yes,and then I click on Save the Changes. Okay ladies and gentlemen. Let's take a look. Iclick over here. I go to my shop or you know what, I go to cart. I click on proceed tocheckout. I fill in all my details over here and then over here, it says I can pay withcredit card. Since it's the only option is already selected. If there are more options,you can select credit card or PayPal or something else. Well it's in test mode, so I copy this overhere. This is my credit card, my test credit card and I can paste it here and paste ithere, and then I check this and I can place the order. [Drum roll] And... yes! It works.Thank you, your order has been received. So it's working. This is amazing. What that means,is that right now if your account is active, we can go to API keys, we can then turn offthe test data, we can get a publishable key. We can create it over here, then the secretkey, then we create a web hook and then we can use it for real and people can buy things.So when people buy things, what will happen?
Well I'm the customer with this email addressso I should receive an email, and there it is, From Ferdy Korpershoek PS5 shop, yourPS5 tools, chargers, stickers order has been received. My logo -- thank you for your order.Hi Ferdy, just to let you know --- we received your order, with the order number, is beingprocessed; the date; what we bought; the free shipping; paid with credit card; the amount;the shipping address so this is all amazing. What we can do now? I as a website owner.I get a message too, both in my inbox and over here. At WooCommerce, it says orders,and there it is. It says processing. If I click over here. Maybe I have all my stuffat home, so I'm making ready the order. I send it to the post office and then I sendit to the people. What I can do then, if that's the case, I can change the status from processingto completed and then I click on update. Now I as a customer get a new email. Here it isand right now it says: "Your order is complete. We have finished processing your order. Thanksfor shopping ferdykorpWP. Thanks for shopping with us. If you have any question feel freeto reach out to us. We're happy to help you. Thank you for your trust in us." So that'show it works. Now if I go to stripe, go to home, no moneyis added because it's a test payment. But if we which to the real API key, then theamount of money will be sent to me and then every week depending on what you choose, Stripewill pay the money to your bank account. So I will go to the website, maybe here the audiois different right now. I have a new audio interface which should make the sound better,so I hope you like it more. Sorry for the inconvenience. So let's continue. What I want to do, I want to adjust this page.I want to show a few products and our most loved products. So what I want to do first,I go to the backend and if I scroll down to products, all products, it's not the casefor everyone but if you installed the pre-made website from Estra before then you shouldhave a few extra products in the trash, and I want to bring them back. So I want to clickover here, bulk actions > restore > apply.
The only thing is now if I go to all, theyare not published. Let me see, uncategorized. So if I grab everything, filter it by uncategorized,filter. I can do it two ways. I can click over here,quick edit and then select a category over here, Electronica and update it. Or what Iprefer? I open all these products holding command or control on the PC, then I say controltap on the Mac or just go to the next step on your PC. I select t-shirts over here. Or what I prefer, I open this in a new tab,it's a mug. So I copy this; I go to categories > mug and I add a new category. Scroll up,update it. Now I want to open all these mugs holding command or control on a PC, then controltab on a Mac or just the next step on PC, and then I select mug and I uncheck this.Next one, uncheck, check; update. Uncheck, check, update. For me, that's the most efficient way to work.It's not actually. Let me show you a better way. I close these all. So over here is t-shirts.What I want to do select all these t-shirts over here, scroll up, Bulk actions > edit> apply. Now I can choose a lot of things and I can give them all a category over here-- t-shirts. I can change everything else and I click on update. Now all the t-shirtswill have the category t-shirts, but also uncategorized. So what I can do I hold commandor control on PC, I open them all, holding command or control on the PC. Control + tabon PC. I scroll down. I scroll down to Uncategorized control tab, scroll down control tab, scrolldown. Looks a little bit weird and it can slow down your computer. For me, it's themost efficient way to work. So now uncheck, uncheck, uncheck, cmd tab, uncheck and then update. I know I am asking a lot from my computer.I'm also recording so it starts to... the fans start to heat it. And now if I refreshthe page, uncategorized is gone. So I say Cmd+w or Ctrl+W to close all these steps.Now, if I go to the website, to the shop I have more products. So I want to go to the home page. I want tomake it look better and I can do that with Elementor. So I click over here I close this.What I want to do? I want to add a few featured products over here and there is a code overhere. You can use this code. We can also use an element within Elementor. So what I wantto do now over here right mouse click, Delete. Then over here I want to search for products,then you see widgets, so we want to skip those and take a look over here but they cost money.They are locked and if you click on that you can buy the pro version. I want to work witha free version and free plugins. I click on update. I click over here to preview the changes.
I go to the backend, to plugins > add new and then I search for elementor add-ons. AndI go for essential add-ons for elementor. Look how many installations, a lot of fivestars, updated three days ago so that's really good. I click on install now. it's a freeplug-in with a pro version, but we're going to make use of the free version. I activateit and now we have extra elements within Elementor. That's how easy it is. I say no thanks overhere and then I go to the website again. I close this, I click on edit with Elementor,I scroll down and now over here I can drag something. So I can search for products, Iscroll down over here you see product grid. I drag it over here and there it is. Now Ican configure this. Filter by, featured products, you can add a star to a product. Let me showyou in a minute and then it can be featured. Columns: 4; I like it. Products count: also4, you can also say eight. If more products over here, I like to say 4. You can also select a certain category. Stylepresentation simple or reveal style. When you hover over it, you can add it to the cartor the overlay style. I like to keep the simple style and we can show the product rating orhide it. Then there's a load more button, we'll not use it. I go to the style and youcan change the content background. I have a border over here. What I want to do, I wantto change the color of the rating over here. I can paste the color of our logo and if Iclick on the plus I add a new color. If I don't want to use this color, I drag it overhere, so in that way I can use only the colors I want to use. So there it is. Now, over here, it looks like that.
I cando the same for the Add to Cart button, Add to Cart button styles, this one, and whenpeople hover over it, I can make it a bit darker like that. Right mouse click, copy,I scroll down, most loved products over here, right mouse click, paste. That's how easyit is. I click over here and this time most loved products, so I say top-rated productsor best-selling products. Let's say best-selling products and it's nice the way it is. So update,let's take a look over here and I have a complete tutorial about Elementor where I will showyou step by step how to create a page using Elementor. I want to do a few more things.First I go to the settings over here. I click on references and I enable editing handles,normally when I hover over here, I have more options. I need to click over here in orderto see more options. So if I turn it on, I only have to hover over things and then Isee more options. I like that. Update. Over here, I can just click here, change the text,change the style. I can change the color, bring it back, CMD+Z. I can change the typography.There are a lot of settings over here. So I just click somewhere and then I edit it,and I can go over here and then I can take a look at all beautiful elements.
I can dragthose over here where I want to when it appears to be blue and I release it. It will be placedover there and then I can change the content, style and advanced options like padding, margin,motion effects. So if I would say bring it in from the leftor from the left, it goes like that. I remove it I can duplicate things. Again, if you wantto know more about that I have a complete tutorial about it you can find it over here.Update. When I update it, I see the result immediately. So I see our featured productsand I see our most loved products. If I take a look at the website now, this is what wehave made. So ladies and gentlemen, this is the websitewe have made. We imported this with the Estra starter template. Here we see our featuredproducts with a free plugin that's an extension on Elementor that we use. Here we see ourmost loved product. We have the about page but we created a shop over here. I've shownyou how to create a simple product. How to create a variable product; a service product;a downloadable digital product; an external product and a grouped product.
We can addthem to the cart and when you do that, you see a widget over here that shows everythingyou have in your cart. You can view the cart or you can go to the checkout. You can dothe same over here. We can filter things by price, we created the categories widgets andthe products on sale and here we can go to the cart. We talked about taxes included inthe price or excluded. We talked about coupon codes, about shipping and shipping costs andthen we can go to the checkout and here we talked about setting up this page. We usepayment methods. At this moment, they are deactivated and I talked about what will happenwhen people place an order. We change the colors in the website and thelogo. We change the settings of the shop and of the pages in the shop. So you can startto sell your products online and of course there are so much more tutorials if I go toYouTube and I search for SEO Ferdy. I say Ferdy to make sure I'm on top. Not this onebut I would use rank math. In our tutorial or convertkit.
