Well you're not going to start a dropshiping bussiness with spotify I can tell you that. I guess you mean shopify.

Learn the basics first, like the difference between Spotify and shopify

May be you are wondering between Wordpress and Shopify. If you are OK with Wordpress then go for it.

Shopify yeah, i was opening Spotify on my phone and got confused hahahahah

Shopify is widely advertised but I think as I said if you are OK with Wordpress use it.

Shopify - Drag and drop. No development experience required. Good analytics. Payment method easy integration. Trusted.

WordPress - All the above with full control if you know how to develop a store.

So if you are developer then you should go definitely with word press ?

Even if you are not a developer, there is Woocomerce .

Personally I think the CDN and the free included SSL with shopify is hard to beat with a hosting plan. There are less options, but everything works. Faster development and I can get more products up without any hassle. That is why I do shopify.

PS the backend of shopify is always fast since its hosted on there servers.

There's a reason why shopify is highly used for ecom, it's designed especially to suit this area. Shopify IS NOT a drag and drop. I personally recommend shopify for anyone, even developers, starting a drop shipping store.

It's even better if you're a developer because changing bits and pieces is easy (I'm not a coder but have played around, moved, changed, and removed parts I didn't want.) The downside is the monthy cost.

Tl;dr go shopify, it's easy af to use. The monthy cost is well worth it once you get the hang of drop shipping.

I would prefer wordpress as it is more flexible.

 

[Lothric]

wordpress is for developers as i know

 

[daxdax89]

Thanks for the opinions guys, i see this two are kind of balanced so i guess i will need to decide it myself

 

[dullmeatloaf]

Just go with shopify, I use it and it's great for starting out.

FYI there is a free 60 day trial available for shopify, should you choose to go with them.

woocommerce for me. 30 a month is way too much
