Hello, and welcome to the newsletter.
Online shopping, called e-commerce, is growing faster than ever. Physical products first come to mind. More broadly, business owners and independent professionals
can generate income online by selling services, digital content (ebooks, e-courses, art, music, apps), gift cards, subscriptions, and memberships.
I'm highlighting ways to add e-commerce to your WordPress website or have a stand-alone store. Consider launching or upgrading your e-commerce to advance your
business.
