    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    Thanks for the information. I'll probably just stick to the free ones now.

    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    I have been using gtmetrix as you suggested and have been tweaking my website. It's more than just the hosting as I originally thought. I tried various plugins but the one which works for me is W3 Total Cache. I was able to cut down my loading speed using this plugin + cloudflare + a trial...

    Thanks for your comments. This is the link for the number - voip.ms I use it for my own home phone number. It's very cheap but setting it up is a bit complicated.

    Cutified Pets - Pet Themed Apparel and Pet Costumes

    While researching, I found this page which was able to do the free+shipping and regular shipping on the same store. The webstore was made with the WooCommerce version of AliDropship. It's quite easy to spot - all the team members in the about page are the same ( A lot of stores have the same...

    How to ship with good quality?

    Im also just starting but this is my game plan. You can follow-up with an email to thank the customer. You should have a Shipping page explaining the shipping times ( just mention 20-40 days to Germany). Not everybody knows AliExpress (but they know Amazon). My suggestion is just to use the...

    Where in the world is Samara Oblast?

    I got a hit from Google Analytics coming from Samara Oblast. It seems that it is a tiny region in Russia. Anybody with any insights?

    My Dropshipping Story

    After purchasing the AliDropship plugin exactly 1 month ago, my webstore is now in beta testing. I tried all 3 themes and even the WooCommerce version, but finally settled on the Michelangelo theme as it is the most "minimalist" of the 3 themes (with some code modification). I also settled on...

    New Dropshipping Store

    I'm not using the WooCommerce version, so I cannot comment on the layout. However, it seems that your price is lower than the cost on AliExpress. For this item, your selling price is 2.55, on Ali, it is 2.96 (some even more). On a Sh..fy site, it's selling for 12.99. If you use the...

    Cutified Pets - Pet Themed Apparel and Pet Costumes

    I'm just starting and seeing all the "gurus" on YouTube promoting it (I watch the "free" YouTube tutorials but take them with a grain of salt), I thought of using it. But in the end, I agree with you 100%. I gather it's easy to do on Sho...fy but hard to do on the AliDropship platform, which...

    Cutified Pets - Pet Themed Apparel and Pet Costumes

    Hi Fernand, thanks for sharing. I have one question about the "Free+Shipping offer" - how did you do it when all your other products are offered with free shipping? Does it matter if your buyer sees that all your other items are with free shipping? Did you just set the price to 0 and your...

    Trust Logo question

    Aren't the Trust Logos supposed to be clickable? Like the one in the right lower corner of this page - https://ssl.comodo.com/comodo-ssl-certificate.php?track=8172 How can we make the logos clickable on the AliDropship themes?

    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    Thanks for the tip. I guess I could start with the $5 month plan if I move (almost equivalent to my plan now). I'm only using a fraction of my plan (and it's already the end of the month).

    Issues with mail service providers

    Yes, I used a subdomain. I guess you need this if you get banned from spamming. But MailGun is just used for transactional emails, so should be no problem with spamming. MailGun is working smoothly so far.

    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    Thanks for the link. I only got an E 53% score. I'm doing my first e-commerce store, so probably have to upgrade sooner or later. My host has a VPS plan of 4 CPU/8GB ram/200GB space/3.5TB transfer for $180/month - I don't know if I will ever need that kind of power.

    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    So, you're using a VPS. It's relatively expensive. I use a shared hosting plan at $5.95/mo and very happy with it. I have been using it for the past 15 years for my other website. I found another site for testing which might be more useful as it gives suggestions on how to improve your site...

    My Path To Develop a Top Brand

    Hi @drluisbarrios, nice to see you started your own thread. BTW, I'm a urologist. The loading speed depends on the host. What host are you using? All the best.
