When it comes to ecommerce solutions, WooCommerce is a popular choice. In fact, they own as much as 28.18% of the market share! For years it's been a favorite with WordPress-lovers; however, there are plenty of other WooCommerce competitors out there…like Ecwid. If you haven't heard of them before, you'd be forgiven because not many people have. But, this doesn't mean they're not offering an excellent service. In light of this, we thought an Ecwid vs WooCommerce comparison would come in handy.

So, let's dive straight in!

Shopify vs Snipcart: My Verdict for 2025

Quick answer: If you want full control and already have a dev team (or you're technical), go with Snipcart. If you want to get selling fast with everything built-in, go Shopify.

After 10+ years building ecommerce stores for everything from indie merch shops to high-growth DTC brands, I’ve tested just about every platform out there.

Today, I’m putting Shopify and Snipcart head-to-head. These two tools cater to very different types of sellers — but most folks don’t realise the tradeoffs until they’re knee-deep in dev work or stuck paying for apps they didn’t budget for.

Let’s fix that.

The Battle of Titans: SEMrush vs Ahrefs vs SpyFu vs Majestic vs Moz

Online companies rise and fall depending on the quality of search engine optimization.

Let's say you start an online store. The idea rocks, your employees handle customer service like pros, and most of your shipments arrive ahead of schedule. Sounds like a pretty solid start, right?

The only problem lies in the SEO. This hypothetical company has failed to complete research on what it takes to beat out the competition on Google. Therefore, a far less competent company, with sub-par support and a mediocre product beats your company out.

In today’s review showdown, we pit Mad Mimi against Mailchimp to see which email provider will prevail. Mailchimp is the real OG, having been founded way back in 2001 one and gained a huge user base of over 9 million people. Mad Mini is slightly newer, having kicked off in 2008 and with only 125 000 customers, but may be a better fit than its more famous contender depending on your needs.

Shopify vs. Yahoo Ecommerce (2023) – Ecommerce Platform Comparison

Shopify is the heavy hitter in today's ecommerce world but at one point Yahoo! was the only reasonable option when it came to selling products online without much development experience. Therefore, it's time to match up Shopify vs. Yahoo Ecommerce and see which one comes out on top.

As the publisher of an ecommerce industry blog, I am somewhat nostalgic and emotionally charged to be reviewing the Yahoo Ecommerce ecommerce platform. Yahoo! happens to be the first company that brought an ecommerce store building platform out to the masses in a big way, back in 1998. They did this by way of acquiring a company called Viaweb that was founded in 1995 by Paul Graham, Robert Tuppen Morris, and Trevor Blackwell.

Viaweb was actually the first-ever web app that allowed users with little technical chops to create and host online storefronts.

Selz and Squarespace are two very different ecommerce solutions — one designed as a simple selling tool, the other as a full-featured website builder with integrated store capabilities.

But which one is the smarter choice for your online store?

I’ve tested both platforms and spent over 40 hours reviewing their pricing, features, usability, and marketing tools. Based on that testing, Squarespace is the clear winner for anyone starting or scaling an online business today.

Selz — while easy to use — has been in limbo since Amazon acquired it in 2021, and its future is uncertain. That makes it risky for new sellers.
