You don’t have to be a tech genius to start your own online store. In this article, I’ll show you step by step how to do it – in a relaxed way and without complicated technical jargon. Let’s get started!
Why have an online store at all?
It’s simple: more and more people are buying online. Whether you have your own products or want to do dropshipping – having your own store gives you freedom, visibility and above all: a real chance to earn money online.
What do you need to get started?
- An idea or a product – something you want to sell.
- A name + domain – e.g. www. mein-shop.de
- A platform – e.g. Shopify, WooCommerce or a marketplace such as LinkMarkt.eu
- A few hours of time and a desire to try things out
Step-by-step guide: How to create your store
Step 1: Make your idea clear
Think about what you want to sell, to whom, and how you can stand out. Write down 2-3 sentences – that’s enough to get you started!
Step 2: Choose the right platform
If you want it super simple, use LinkMarkt.eu. You don’t need to install anything technical – just register, create your store and you’re done.
Step 3: Set products
Take good photos, write short, honest texts – and don’t forget the prices.
Step 4: Legal & payments
Much is already regulated on platforms such as LinkMarkt.eu. Nevertheless: Imprint, privacy policy and payment methods (e.g. bank transfer, PayPal) are important.
Step 5: Tell the world
Post on Google, use ads (e.g. Google Ads) or tell your friends. Every click counts at the beginning!
Common mistakes – and how to avoid them
- Think too complicated: start simple. Perfection comes later.
