In this tutorial I show you how to create a professional eCommerce website using Shopify, step-by-step, from zero to a store that can actually take payments. We start at ferdy.com/shopify so you can grab the deal (free trial and then $1 per month for the next three months), and then I walk you through the Shopify dashboard. I show you how themes work (and how easy it is to try/publish a theme like Dawn), but I also explain why the default theme out of the box is already really good compared to what many people are used to in WordPress. Then we build the foundation: I customize the theme (logo + favicon, header layout, sticky header, and the hero section because that’s the first impression). After that we go into the real webshop work: creating products (simple and variable), setting inventory and SKU, using collections and tags for a better structure, and improving SEO with Shopify’s built-in AI suggestions. I also show you how to tweak the product page layout (like switching media to one column/carousel and narrowing the layout with custom CSS) and how to use collections to make the homepage look more professional with a clean “shop by collection” grid.
