@lilly888Jul 24.2020 — #Hi! I chose Magento once and has never regretted.
I love Magento for such benefits:
-It's SEOfriendly. SEO advanced support enables products rank on all popular search engines such as Google, Yahoo and more. Magento creates title tags automatically as well as lets you to create them manually. It also prevents you from content duplication, by adding canonical tag, which links your duplicate content. To prioritize categories, products and pages, you can use a sitemap.
-Gives Hosting freedom. Unlike Shopify which has several restrictions regarding hosting solutions, with Magento you can use any type of hosting options for online stores.
-You can choose between: hosting provider, the model, the package, anything that fits your business needs. Moreover, if someday you decide to migrate to another hosting provider, you can easily move to a cozy corner you like. This option is not available for all eCommerce platforms on the market.
-Enables Third-party integration. Magento provides many third-party extensions for various needs such as payment gateway, comments plugin, analytics tool etc. This flexibility lets you easily upgrade services through the extensions.
-Scalability, flexibility, speed. No one could deny, that speed is one of the main ranking factors as well as factor, that defines the quality of eCommerce platform. Due to immense Fastly updates for Magento Commerce Cloud, page latency decreased impressively.
-The same with scalability and flexibility. Magento cares about anysize stores from small to huge ones. If your store grows, Magento will take care of it as well. Check our services [here](https://elogic.co/services/)

@NaheedJul 29.2020 — #Major platforms are Shopify, WordPress, Magento, and Wix. For e-commerce, there are Shopify and Magento platforms and for beginners you have to work on WordPress and Wix for the practice. And among all the platforms the best one is WordPress because it allows you to custom development of the website.
@ChiantiJan 06.2021 — #Build a website: Shopify, BigCommerce
There should be more of these two common ones in the market. I am still learning about them, so I went to check them. I think shopify is good, simple, practical and top-notch. The one-piece is easier.
Product selection should be a relatively big operation. To find the most popular products on the market, the easiest way is of course to search the ranking list for anything. But also consider their bsr and other data. We collect popular items mainly to choose and sell, so we need to obtain more comprehensive data.
Probably this is the case, the filter conditions can be adjusted according to the needs, and there is even a market trend of the category. (I am a layman, I don’t know very well yet, but it seems to be very practical for e-commerce friends)
Advertise: UnrealFront
You can set templates to make some relatively simple creative videos for advertising, which is quite interesting
It's still free at present, and friends who are interested can simply try1try
Pre-advertising research: SocialPeta
It’s hard to know how to do everything. Advertising sounds like doing data. In fact, research is really too much energy. It really feels more painful than doing programs. Not only learning, but also a lot of research. Channel research, keyword research, creative type research, creative format research, audience research, competitor research, similar advertising material research...
Of course, you don’t have to repeat the survey, you will know most of it after doing a few, but you need real-time monitoring and tracking...
Everyone who does advertising has a member advertising tool in their hands. I use the domestic SocialPeta. The above functions can be realized. With the functions of e-commerce, it is equivalent to games, apps, and e-commerce. There are many similar ones. I think the database of SocialPeta is relatively large, so in addition to company cooperation, individuals also recognize it. Others, such as the more well-known AdPlexity, PowerAdSpy, etc., are also good, but they are more expensive, and the database does not seem to be that way. And I prefer SocialPeta's channel research and comparison, which can compare the differences in advertising types of various channels, which is quite smooth.
Search keywords/words of interest + audience: [AdTargeting](https://adtargeting.io/), Facebook Audience
Audience research is inevitable in the end of making products. Facebook is the main advertising platform of e-commerce, so it’s good to mainly consider Facebook audiences. AdTargeting is a relatively simple choice.
Estimated cost: [ADCostly](https://adcostly.com/)
It is omnipotent. Advertising is to calculate the cost. Recently, many friends have asked me questions about the audience. In the end, I have to return to how to control the cost. I feel that investing money in it has no effect. Audience keywords are part of the reason. In fact, keywords also have their own average CPC and CPM data. ADCostly has integrated some resource data and got an estimate. This is a budget that we can probably know in mind. There are also the CPC of the platform, which is the most basic estimate.
Advertising: Adespresso
It’s good to do Facebook advertising, but in fact, the process is not very difficult, you can do it yourself, but you can refer to the information on their website, which can help a lot.

@Will111Jun 18.2021 — #Every CMS has its own benefits, features, advantages, and disadvantages. Another thing is that it also depends on your requirement which type of website you want. WordPress provides better customizable options that make it the right choice for beginners. Shopify is specifically used for creating an online store and eCommerce sites to sell products and grow business. Wix also provides [custom website development](https://thecustomwebsites.com/) with a responsive layout by helping users through drag and drop options.
