I’ve been working on a website for a customer for the past month or so that is built on WordPress and WooCommerce. I have decided that I really like the WooCommerce plugins, and highly suggest it for anyone who wants a simple, quick way to take payments on their site.

The WooCommerce plugin makes payments extremely simple, even for the least technically inclined people. For example, a store-owner does not need to worry about credit card information security, SSL certifications or anything. If the store-owner links his/her PayPal account to their bank account, and inputs their PayPal address in the WooCommerce PayPal payment gateway settings, patrons can begin purchasing items through the site immediately! This is a huge plus for SMB (small to medium business) owners who don’t want to have a massive outlay of cash for setting up a storefront. WooCommerce is definitely my top choice for a storefront integration. In fact, I had to make only minimal changes to get the default WooCommerce layout to work with the theme as the customer desired.
