Let’s be honest. WordPress has been around forever, and WooCommerce has done its best to keep up. But if you’ve ever actually tried to wrangle WooCommerce into a sleek, seamless eCommerce machine, you know it feels more like duct taping a shopping cart to a blog. Meanwhile, Shopify has been quietly (okay, loudly) running the world’s best-converting checkout for millions of stores across the globe. And now, it’s finally here: the Shopify plugin for WordPress.
Yes, it’s about time.
With Shopify’s new “Sell on WordPress” plugin, you can instantly turn any WordPress site into a sales powerhouse. No more hacked-together checkout experiences or juggling endless plugins. Just Shopify’s battle-tested checkout, dropped directly into your WordPress site like it always belonged there.
Why This Plugin Changes the Game
WordPress is fantastic for blogging, branding, and building a loyal community. But when it comes to selling? That’s where Shopify has always stolen the spotlight. Shopify isn’t just another shopping cart. It’s the all-in-one platform powering some of the fastest-growing businesses on the planet. The reason? Conversion.
Shopify’s checkout consistently outperforms others on the market. From mobile optimization to payment options to trust signals, Shopify has spent years perfecting the art of getting people to hit “Buy Now.” Now, WordPress users get that same magic with one simple plugin.
That means:
- You keep your WordPress front end, your design, and your content.
- You add Shopify’s checkout and product management.
- You get all the analytics, tools, and integrations that come with Shopify.
It’s like adding a jet engine to a bicycle.
The Setup: Easier Than You Think
Install the plugin, connect your Shopify store, and boom—your WordPress site is now an online store. Add your products, drop them into posts or pages, and let Shopify’s checkout do the heavy lifting.
But here’s the thing: just because Shopify makes it easy doesn’t mean you need to do it alone. At Ketchum, Killum & Wynn Creative, we’ve helped brands of all sizes design, launch, and scale Shopify stores that don’t just look great, they make money. If you want us to handle the setup, we’ll make sure your products shine on Shopify and your WordPress site feels like it was built for eCommerce from day one.
When WordPress Isn’t Enough
Here’s the catch: sometimes, WordPress is the bottleneck. Plugins pile up, page speed slows down, and keeping everything patched becomes a full-time job. That’s when clients ask the obvious question: “Should we just move everything to Shopify?”
The answer is usually yes. And we’ve got you covered.
