If you’re searching for an ecommerce platform, you are spoilt for choice. There are so many great players out there that knowing which one is best for you is quite a fun exploration challenge. But we have narrowed down two of the best options so you can make an educated decision and get your business off the ground and moving.
Squarespace
This is a great platform because of its ease of use. It’s far more intuitive than it’s closest rival, WordPress. You can create a website in one evening and then, use the many online tutorials to add the finishing touches. It’s a great platform because it has all-modern designs. Large images, automatic video player options and friendly fonts that aid in navigation.
Shopify
This is perhaps the most versatile platform. There are several different types of plan and they all come with their own Shopify pricing. There are 5 different options.
- Shopify Lite — $9 per month
- Basic Shopify — $29 per month
- Shopify — $79 per month
- Advanced Shopify — $299 per month
- Shopify Plus — negotiable, but usually costing around $2000 per month
Each has its own perks and options. It’s best if you explore each one and find out what kind of features you need for your business growth plan. Shopify is very easy to use, with great templates, easy-to-use user-friendly designs and makes purchasing quick and easy for customers.
We recommend that you explore both options as each one does something better than the other. Shopify is more versatile and affordable but SquareSpace gives you a modern website which is often touted as a better version of WordPress.
