Here it is So, after watching this video you will be able to create a website like this where you can add your own products. And anyone is visiting your site, they will be able to add your products to their cart, and purchase them from your website So make sure you watch this video till the end, to learn how to do it I am Bryan from Website Learners, and let’s start creating
our ecommerce website Now to create an ecommerce website First, you need to create
an account on Shopify So to create the account on Shopify, Just click the link below this video, and it will take you to this page. Now to create an account, Click here And enter your email address Now click ‘start free trial’ And you will get this page Now enter a password for your account So you will need this to
log in to your website. Now here, you need to enter
the name for your store. So I'm going to call my store as ‘Gotocloth’ Now this will also become
your website's address. So for example, if you enter ‘Gotocloth’ your website address will
be ‘Gotocloth’.myshopify.com Once you’ve entered these details, Click ‘create your store’ And you will get this page. Now to complete creating your account, Fill up all these details and then click ‘enter my store’ And now you will get this page. Once you reach this page, it
means that you have now successfully created your Shopify account. So Once you have created
your Shopify account, your website will also be created. So to check that, let’s open a new tab And type our website address Which is ‘the name of your store’ DOT myshopify.com So I’m going to type
gotocloth.myshopify.com And now if you press enter you can see that, we have now got our website. So right now we have 2 pages, which is our homepage & our ‘products’ page. Now if you scroll down, you can see that our site is empty. So Once you’ve got your website. We can now start building it So we’re going to build
our site in just 2 parts The first part is to ‘Set up your store’ A store is the place where your customers can look at all your products and then purchase them So once you set up your store, your site will have your own products and your visitors will be able to purchase them So we are going to set up our store in just 5 steps The first step is to log in to your Shopify website So to log in to your website, all you have to do is, Just go to your website address And then type /admin Now this is the address which will take you to the admin page of your website So now if you press enter, You can see that, we’re on the admin page, where we can control our website. So once you’ve logged in, we can now go
to step 2, of setting up our store, which is to ‘add your products to your site’ So to add products Just click products And click ‘add product’ And it will take you to this page where you need to add the
details, about your product So to add a product to your site, Just enter your product name here. As I want to sell a T-shirt,
I'm going to enter T-shirt And here, you need to enter
the details of the product So lets do that Once you finish entering the details, Now here, you need to add an image of the product So to do that Just drag an image from your computer and then drop it here Next, you need to enter the price of the product So I’m going to enter ‘50$’ Finally here, you need to enter
the number of products that are available So Lets say you have 10 pieces of this product Available in stock Then just enter 10 here I’m going to enter 10 So after adding the details of the product Just scroll up and click ‘save’ And now the product has been successfully added to your website! So if we go to our product page, And click ‘refresh’ you can see that we now have our product here And now if you click on the product You can see that we can now buy this product So this is how you can add a
product to your website. In the same way, you can add any number
of products you want, to your website. Okay! Now if we click ‘buy now’ You can see that, we’re
getting this message Which says ‘checkout is not available’ So this means your customers will not be
able to buy products from your website. So to let customers buy
products from our site, we need to choose a plan
for our Shopify account. So let’s go to step 3 which is
to ‘Choose a plan on Shopify' So to do that, let’s go back to Shopify Now click ‘home’ and then click ‘select a plan’ Now here you can see 3
different plans which you can choose from You can take a look
at these features and select the one you want. I’m going to select this one Now here you need to
choose how often you want to make the payment I’m going to choose every 30 days Now to choose this plan Let’s click ‘add credit card’ And here it will ask you
to enter your card details Now if you continue using
shopify after 14 days, then your card will be charged So let’s enter our card details And then click ‘confirm’ Okay! So now we have successfully
chosen our plan. which means we can now
see our checkout page. So now if we go to our product
page and click ‘buy now’ You can see that, we have
now got our checkout page And we can add our shipping details. Okay! So let’s enter our details and click ‘continue to shipping' Now, here you can see that, we
have NO option to make payment So in order to allow customers to
pay for your products, you need to set up your payment method. So next let's go to the step
4, [of setting up our store] which is to set up our payment method. So to set it up Let’s go back to Shopify Now click ‘settings’ And then click ‘payments' Now here you will find several payment
options, which you can add to your site. If Shopify payment
option is available in your country, You can activate this payment. But If you don't have this option Just scroll down... select third-party providers And you will find more payment methods,
which you can add to your site I’m going to choose ‘stripe’ which
is a popular payment method So lets click that and you will get this page. Now here you need to fillup these details. So lets do that Now scroll down Fillup your bank details where you want to receive your payment. Now when someone buys
a product from your site, the money will be sent to this account. Okay Next let’s enter our email and give
a password for our stripe account Now Once you’ve entered
all of these details Click authorize access to this account As you can see we’ve added
a payment method to our website. So this means our payment
setup is now complete. now if we go to our checkout page And click ‘refresh’ you can see that instead of the error message,
we can now pay using our card. So now we've successfully
set up our payment method. Okay So once you’ve set up your payment method, We can go to the final step of setting
up our store which is to ‘Make your site available to your Visitors’ Now if we open a new browser window, And go to our website, You can see that, Our site is not yet visible So to make your site visible to others You need to change a setting in Shopify. So to change that setting, Let’s go back to Shopify And click ‘online store’ Now here you can see that, our site
is password protected, which means no one else can see it right now. Now to make your site
visible to your visitors, Click ‘disable password’ and it will take you to this page Now here disable this option And click ‘Save’ So now your website will be
visible to your customers. So now if we go back to
this tab and click ‘refresh’ You can see that our site is
now available to our visitors Now, if you go to store, we can now see the product we added So now we've successfully
completed setting up our store. And this means anyone
who is visiting your site will now be able to buy your products. Now let’s try to buy a product from our site So to do that lets go back to our website, Lets go to our store Now just like a customer would do, lets select this product and then try buying this product By clicking 'Buy Now' Now if the customer enters their details, and clicks continue It will ask the customer to enter their payment details So now if they enter it and click 'Pay now' You can see that, the payment has been made And we have successfully
ordered the product. Okay! So this is how a customer can
buy a product from your site So now we have successfully created our E-Commerce website with shopify And now your customers can order products from your site Now, what happens when
someone orders your product? How do you know, that you've got an order? Now as soon as someone buys
a product from your site, if you go to your inbox, you can see that we have received 2 emails The first email is from our shopify store And second one is from Stripe So if we open the first Email from our store, You can see that we have all the details about the order So we have the name of the product which the customer has ordered and their address Now if we go back and open the second mail, You can see that Stripe confirms that we have received our payment So this is how you can know when someone has ordered your product And once you get this email, You can go ahead and deliver the product to your customer So now you have successfully set up your store and you can receive orders from your customers Once you setup your store Next, Lets go to part 2 of building your E-Commerce website Which is to change the look of our website So to change the look of our
website we are going to do 2 steps The first step is to ‘add
the content to your homepage’ Now, if we go to our
