Starting a Shopify store in Germany?
Great idea. Germany is one of the biggest eCommerce markets in Europe, with over 62 million online shoppers.
But if you don’t set things up properly, you’ll run into legal issues, tax problems, and compliance headaches.
That’s why I’m breaking this down step by step—so you don’t waste time or money.

I’ll be honest, I’ve built my fair share of websites over the years – both for myself, and for clients. Over about a decade now, I’ve probably used virtually every easy website builder solution you can think of – Wix, Shopify – you name it.
Lately, I’ve experimented a lot with various AI-powered website builders – and I have to say, many are pretty impressive.
Squarespace Blueprint AI – the new updated AI website-building solution from Squarespace, caught my attention for a few reasons.
First, I’m already a big fan of Squarespace because of its amazing templates – even if I do think other platforms (like Shopify) have better sales tools.

I’ve tried out two options for having an online presence: Shopify and Elementor. Both are different beasts for building websites and ecommerce stores.
Shopify is a full on solution for those who want to sell products online. It has all the tools for ecommerce.
Elementor is a WordPress page builder that can be used for any type of website.
I’ve used both so I know their strengths and use cases.

When I first got into ecommerce over 10 years ago I quickly learned one thing: price matters.
No matter how good your product is or how nice your branding looks customers are going to compare your price to others. And if you’re not paying attention to price comparisons you’re leaving money on the table.

Art Storefronts vs Squarespace: Which is best? Ultimately, it all depends on the type of business you want to run.
Squarespace is a straightforward website builder, with beautiful templates, and plenty of handy tools if you want to sell things like courses, memberships, and subscriptions.
However, while Squarespace advertises itself as a website builder intended for creators it’s not focused exclusively on artists.
It’s also not the most robust ecommerce platform I’ve ever used. In fact, when you dive in and actually set up an account with Squarespace, you’ll find a lot of missing ecommerce capabilities.
There’s no “wish list” feature, the inventory management tools are very basic, and Squarespace doesn’t even have its own dedicated payment processor (though it integrates with others).

Quick answer:
CPG Marketing, or “Consumer Packaged Goods Marketing” refers to the methods companies use to advertise perishable goods which need to be frequently replenished. CPG products are the items consumers use on a daily basis, which require routine replacement.
If you’re one of countless retailers selling “consumable” products, like food, beverages, household cleaners and toiletries, you may have encountered this term before. CPG Marketing focuses on the activities and methodologies consumer packaged goods companies use to raise brand awareness, influence customer behavior, and increase sales.

Weebly vs BigCommerce: Which is best? Ultimately, it all depends on what you need from a website builder and ecommerce platform.
Based on my experience with both platforms, I’d say BigCommerce is definitely the better option for larger companies looking to scale their online presence. It offers advanced inventory management tools, state-of-the-art AI capabilities, and omnichannel selling options.

Overall, I’d definitely pick Shopify if you’re looking for a comprehensive ecommerce platform. While Hostinger has some basic ecommerce features, Shopify is a far more comprehensive solution, with more advanced inventory management tools, an integrated payment processor, and stronger reporting features.
Hostinger definitely shines in terms of simplicity if you’re looking for a basic website builder, however, with a variety of templates to choose from, and a drag-and-drop editor.
