You probably already know WordPress is a great content management system for blogs and websites, but did know it can be used for creating online stores? Thanks to some fantastic ecommerce plugins, you can use WordPress to sell digital and tangible products online.
If you want to use WordPress to build an online shop, then it’s best to choose a theme designed specifically for ecommerce sites. To help you find the right WordPress template for your online store, I’ve rounded up 12 of my favourite free and premium eommerce WordPress themes.
These themes will enable you to sell a range of different items, including tangible goods like furniture, jewellery and clothing, as well as digital products, such as photographs, icons, and logos. Plus, I’ve found themes in a range of different styles and colours, so at least one of them should meet the needs of your online store.
