I didn’t know the local host was for testing ?? (that demonstrates how unexpert i am lol) that alone will help me a lot! Thank you!
You’re welcome. Many of us started as a newbie that knows nothing, including me! ??
So i imagine once you created your site on a local host platform you can “save” that and “upload” it on a hosting provider (?)
Yes, that can be achieved by using your localhost WordPress + WooCommerce installation as what we called as “staging” site. Once you have completed your store setup and customization, you can “migrate” the content and setup to your live site with the web hosting account. This can be achieved by using a plugin. Here’s a guide for this.
?Anyway what kind of knowledge do i need in order to use a hosting provider once the website is completed?
Depending on which hosting provider that you’re using, you may need to have basic knowledge on the control panels (e.g. cPanel) that you need to use to setup WordPress. Normally the hosting providers provide support documentation or user guide on how to access their control panels.
?WooCommerce is similar to WordPress or there is some coding needed behind?
For basic store setup like adding products, setting up shipping and payments, most of these can be done using WooCommerce alone or with plugins. Coding may not be necessary since there are tons of free and paid plugins available.
If you’re totally new to WordPress and WooCommerce, I would suggest to install WordPress on your computer (i.e. localhost) and familiarize yourself with the features before you dive into WooCommerce. Once you’re ready, you can simply install the WooCommerce plugin and setup your store.
