If you want to sell online, you have two options either to sell from ecommerce marketplaces like ebay, Amazon. Etsy, Zazzle, or create your own online store.

Creating your store on ecommerce marketplaces is easy. Right after signing up, you can start listing your product. Once you finish your listing, your store is ready t be launched publically.

Creating your own store, on your own website, is little bit technical. You need a domain and hosting. Shared hosting is not a good idea for online store, you need at least VPS hosting. You also need SSL certificate on your website (some hosting companies offer free SSL).

Once hosting is set up, go to control panel manager and install ecommerce content management system (CMS) of your choice. If ecommerce CMS confuse you, you can use wordpress with woocommerce.

There is also another easy option. You can try Shopify and save yourself from all technicalities.

Want to Sell Online, Try Dropshipping

Whether you realize or not, selling online is the best way to make a lot of money. How do you think Jeff Bezos became world’s richest man? Even during the Covid pandemic, Amazon business boomed.

The easiest way to sell online is through dropshipping. That’s because you do not need an inventory. You sell from your website, you forward the shipping address to your supplier (or dropshipper) and your supplier/dropshipper will directly ship the product to the customer. You set your own selling price, and the difference between your selling price and the price you pay to your supplier is your profit.

You do not have to spend money on product development or product procurement. All you need is create a website where you will list the products you want to sell and spend some money on ads.

Building a dropshiping business does not cost much. But earning potential is huge.
