Are Free Beginner E-commerce Video Courses Actually Worth Watching?

Conrad.S · Nov 6, 2026

Hey folks! I’m pretty new to ecommerce and currently trying to learn as much as I can before getting started. I’ve been checking out beginner guides, watching tutorials and webinars, and browsing different forums and communities to get a better idea of how everything works. And I came across a series of beginner videos by Sellvia. So it’s basically a full step-by-step guide to getting started, kind of like the educational content Shopify puts out, but completely free and this is the reason of my doughs... Has anyone here actually watched the videos and are they worth the time? Did you learn anything you could actually apply when starting an online business?Would love to hear some honest opinions from people who’ve checked them out

I have not watched any of the videos but I will like to say, since you like the contents, you should go ahead and glean as much as you can from the video. Even if you dont get everything you need, the knowledge will serve as you progress through your learning.

If you have the time, it’s still worth checking out those videos, as you might unexpectedly come across some new knowledge.

It can really be helpful. To be honest I have learned a bunch of things from YouTube courses related to my field and freelancing and I am currently generating a revenue from it so I would advise you to invest your time in it as it can be worth it.

I'd suggest you buy a structured course from either Udemy or Coursera. It will save you some time from trying to put all the pieces together from YT videos.

Yoo! I think free guides like these are worth checking out, especially if you're just starting out. The most useful thing is learning the basics, like how to choose products, set up a store, find customers and promote your business. I wouldn't expect videos alone to teach you everything but they can give you a good starting point and help you avoid some common beginner mistakes. What really matters is putting that knowledge into practice
