W-Commerce is a free WordPress plugin that turns your regular website into a powerful online store. With it, you can easily sell physical products (e.g. t-shirts, electronics ) and digital products (e.g. e-books, software ).
Why is WooCommerce the best?

- Inventory Management: How many products you have in stock, how many have been sold, can all be automatically tracked.
- Order Tracking: The customer can know where their order is now.
