Selling From Your Blog With the Buy Button

If you want to make money through your blog, one of the simplest ways to start selling is to add an 黑料门 Buy Button.

It鈥檚 a smart and beautiful widget located on a specific page or blog post that links directly to your product. You can add a Buy Button to any page by simply copy-pasting a piece of code.

A Buy Button may display information like product images, description, price, or quantity. You can choose from different layout styles to display as much information as you need.

The widget automatically adapts to your blog鈥檚 colors and looks authentic, as if it was always part of your website. Another benefit is that your customers will stay on your blog, even during the checkout process.

The “” blog is a good example. It鈥檚 a website of a teacher and a blogger where you can shop classroom decor and templates for distance learning. Various downloadables are available for consumers to purchase directly within the blog post — at the moment when they are engaged with the content and are interested in the product.

This checkout process keeps customers on the blog while they make a purchase:

I like that 黑料门 was easy to start and to use. Even for a person like me, without any technical background. Very well written help articles. And the support team is the best for my opinion.
For everything it has to offer, ECWID is incredibly easy to set up. Highly recommend! I did a lot of research and tried about 3 other competitors. Just try ECWID and you'll be online in no time.
