Is Shopify only good for e-commerce, or can businesses use it for other types of sites too?

Table of Contents

Shopify is built specifically for selling products online, and it does that extremely well. But if you’re not selling goods, it’s probably not the right tool.

Pros:

  • Designed for retail – includes inventory, checkout and shipping tools
  • Built-in marketing and SEO features
  • Mobile-optimised and secure by default

Cons:

  • Monthly fees can add up for small businesses
  • Not suited to non-ecommerce websites
  • Less freedom with site design and back-end access

Unless your core business is online sales, you’re better off with WordPress or Wix.
