$1.3 trillion! That's the amount of money spent on online shopping in 2014.
$1.6 trillion! That's the amount of money expected to be spent on online shopping in 2015.
Yes. E-commerce is that big!
And it's getting bigger. Every. Single. Year. Day.
That's why the best time to start selling your stuff online is yesterday.
The second best time is TODAY!
And it's never been easier to start. You can choose between variety of options:
1. WordPress eCommerce theme with integrated WooCommerce plugin.
2. Shopify
3. Magento
You can literally start today.
And to help you start (or grow) your eCommerce shop the right way, I've asked 11 eCommerce experts to share their tweet-long tips.
Here's what they said:
