If you’re not familiar with WooCommerce, it’s probably the most popular e-commerce plugin for WordPress used today and has over 1 million installs. The base plugin is incredibly powerful out of the gate and gives you a ton of features to sell your products and services. Because of its extensibility and dedicated community of developers, there are a huge number of free and paid add-ons that you can install for even more features and functionality.
Many photographers are already using WooCommerce on their WordPress powered websites to sell digital downloads of their photos and even printed products. They are also using it to manage their event photography viewing and purchasing process through one streamlined interface.
If you’re looking for a solution to sell your products on your own website, WooCommerce is definitely worth a look.
