Hi Claire,
Thanks for getting in touch about shipping costs without a zip code.

I think the best thing to do is to try and reach out to the recipient for a zip code. It’s an important detail, so it shouldn’t surprise the buyer if they’re asked.

If that doesn’t work, you could always calculate a flat rate fee for the order. On some builders like Shopify or Squarespace, you can create shipping zones based on location. You can then select the locations you want, and set a rate for each one. This could also work as a solution!

I hope this helps! Take care. Holly.

Hi there T,

That’s a great question!

First off, since you’re a beginner, I’d recommend Squarespace over Wix because it has the easiest editor to use. With Squarespace, it’s easy to create the website you want even if you lack the technical skills.

You also said that you wanted a website that doesn’t look cookie cutter. Squarespace wins on that front too! The platform is known for having stunning, professional templates, so you’ll certainly find one that suits your needs and will make you look great online.

You can also showcase your before and after examples by adding great photos to your website.

I hope that answers your question. Thanks for reaching out. Holly.

Hi Charles,
Thanks for your question! Since they’re separate emails for different domains, you would have to register them separately. Most free options only allow for one email, although the final option featured on our list, GMX Mail, allows up to 10 alias addresses, in case that suits your needs? Hope this helps, take care! Lucy

Hi Jannatul,
Thanks so much for your comment! I’m so pleased you found the article helpful, best of luck with your own product page design! Take care, Lucy

Hi JP,
Thanks so much for your comment – that’s a great question!

Shopify is indeed a strong recommendation for ecommerce and large product bases. Here’s a few more reasons why:
– Thanks to Shopify Editions Winter ’24, there are more ways to manage a large inventory. You can add up to 2000 variants per product, while Shopify automatically applies standard categories or attributes to each product.
– You can also use the bulk editor tool to make changes to products and variants at the same time, saving you from any headaches along the way!
– Last of all, there is Shopify’s Plus Plan fit for multi-product ecommerce. Prices start from $2,300 per month billed annually and comes with a whopping 200 inventory locations, localized selling across 50 markets, and a checkout with 40x capacity.

I hope this has helped!
All the best, Holly.

Can you please list out the additional benefits you believe Shopify possess for a multi product e-commerce site vs Wix, and whether it is a strong recommendation to use Shopify for e-commerce channels with large product bases or just a soft recommendation?

Thanks in advance!
