Our Reviews

We realized that we created all these posts regarding Shopify but forget to write a complete review about this online store builder. Unfortunately I’m still busy writing a detailed review but for now all you should know that from a design and functionality point of view Shopify is one of the best, if not the best.

Watch the video below for an in depth review of Shopify and a quick look at the back end showing you just how easy it is to use them to build your store.


This system is set up in such a way that a complete beginner can set up a store and start selling online or that a master developer can create a completely customized store. It comes with a lot of features already added to the store such:

Online Store and Theme Examples

I’ve you’ve read any of my other post by now you would have noticed that I really love Shopify. As a web designer and entrepreneur I’ve tried many design platforms and for ecommerce / selling online Shopify is definitely the simplest, most robust and effective platform. I’m all for simple selling machines compared to having a complicated design. Take a look at Amazon for example, they are the biggest online retailer and do you see how simple their design is? That being said I want to go ahead and give you some Shopify examples. Take a look at the images below:




The best way for you to get more information about Shopify examples would be to take a look at all the themes they offer. They have a wide range of themes with many being free and responsive which is great. See more here (link). If your just getting started take a look at our Shopify promo code page for a %20 discount here.

Pricing & Costs

A lot new online sellers are confused and hesitant when it comes to committing to a monthly plan for a platform such as Shopify, Bigcommerce or any other Ecommerce platform. However today we want to take away that confusion and give you the exact details of the Shopify pricing plans. Take a look at the table below to get a better idea of the costs involved.

Shopify Pricing


If your just starting out and have a limited amount of products you want to sell I suggest you take a look at their $14 p/m starter plan which allows you to sell up to 25 products on your store. However if I were starting out with a brand new store I would probably go with the $29 p/m Shopify pricing package. With this package you are upgraded from 25 to unlimited products, can have discount codes on your store, have the standard 2.9% credit card rate and get fraud protection.

If all this still seems a bit expensive to you, you might be in the wrong business because selling online costs money. It’s as simple as that. Not only do you have to set up your online store and provide customers with a safe and secure website to shop at (which Shopify provides and gives great support for) you also have acquire new customers through various traffic methods which will either cost you money or a lot of time.

Luckily we’ve got you covered with a 20% life time discount code. Click on the link below to get your discount on Shopify Pricing.
