Here’s an important announcement from WordPress.com. Ecommerce is now available with the business package…
We’re thrilled to announce that, starting today, WordPress.com Business users can connect their sites to their online stores. With three leading ecommerce partners to choose from — Ecwid, Shopify, and ShopLocket — you can showcase, promote, and sell products to your customers directly from your site.
If you’re already a WordPress.com Business user, or are thinking of becoming one, here’s how the ecommerce feature will power your WordPress.com site.
via WordPress.com Business Users: eCommerce Has Arrived! — Blog — WordPress.com.
I think this is a pretty significant announcement considering that I normally charge about $3,500 for an ecommerce website and this is only $300 per year and features direct tech support from WordPress. I think this is a game changer making online publishing and ecommerce more widely available for everyman [and everywoman]!
