Shopify is an excellent choice for creating an online presence with your store for many reasons. Having an online presence is essential nowadays, and without an online store you’re missing out on vital sales that could boost your business. In this post, we will be showing you five advantages of Shopify and why we at TC Marketing can make your page excel.

Simplicity

Creating and amending products in many e-commerce platforms can be confusing for many business owners. After all, you’re not a web designer – we are! Shopify makes it simple for you to edit and add products due to its user-intuitive layout. This means that once the site is built, you negate the need to pay someone when you need to make amendments to the site, saving you time and money.

Security

Making sure your site is secure from hackers or DDOS attacks is vital in the digital era. Shopify have a Level 1 PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) Qualification, meaning that they process over at least 1 million sales per year to the highest security standards possible. This gives you, the store owner, the confidence that your transactions are secure and your reputation as a store will be held in high regard.

Built-in SEO

Shopify has a laundry list of amazing features, but built-in SEO has to be one of the most helpful. With other e-commerce platforms, they might require you to install a complicated separate plugin or might not support it at all natively! With Shopify, it has been simplified so that you can handle it all from one place, allowing your store to reach its maximum potential. If you’d prefer, you can even install many popular SEO plugins such as Yoast. Your options are endless!

Customisability

With access to thousands of apps and themes, Shopify is one of the most versatile e-commerce platforms when it comes to design. Many affordable (and free!) templates for your site are available instantly, or our team at TC Marketing can build you a custom look – whatever your requirements may be. Many popular services can be integrated, such as Nudgify, Yandex and AfterShip, allowing for full flexibility whilst streamlining your business.

Reliability

Shopify is known for its world-class reliability – they boast a 99.9% uptime rating for the past 90 days, meaning they have only experienced a downtime of 5.4 minutes in the past three months. This gives you the comfort that your business will continue running smoothly with minimal interruptions, allowing you to maximise your profits and spend less time on the phone to customer service.
