WordPress Ecommerce Websites: Article Excerpt
“Q: What do you think needs to be fixed in the online world?
A: E-commerce is one area. We are moving into that in a pretty public way. It’s way too hard to have an independent store online, even to do basic things. If you want to sell home-made bracelets, it involves getting a merchant account, setting up with a bank and so on. WooCommerce, the company we just acquired, does make it easier, but they could be even better.”
