You will have to choose a name for your website. Suppose I will choose Iloveshopping.com. Then you can buy the domain and host from various resources available on the internet. The domain is the website name or website address or the URL of the website whereas hosting means storing the website content on the servers. After doing that launch your website and you will see that your website is live on the internet. The next step is to log in to WordPress for which you can type /wp-admin at the end of your URL.

Example: Iloveshopping.com/wp-admin

This way you will be redirected to the page where you can log in to WordPress. After logging in, you will reach a page that will let you control your website. This is where the real work begins.

1. Now we will come to the next step that is website building. To build an e-commerce website easily you can import an already built site on WordPress and edit it.
2. Import the sample website or better said the theme whichever is most suitable to your website.

Go to Appearance then Themes then Add New Theme.

1. Search the theme ASTRA. Install and activate the theme. Now click on the Elementor option and you will be taken to a page where different designs of the website will appear to you. Select the E-commerce option on the left side, so that you get favourable themes. Choose your favourite one and import the full website.

Choose the website which has the store option which displays the list of products. Then the functionality that as soon as you click on the product you get the product details. Make sure you have the Add to cart option too. And, last but not least you can check out with various payment options.

1. Refresh your web address to see that now your website looks exactly like the website you imported.
2. Delete all the sample products and add your products by adding product name, description, image, and price (Remember to change the currency). Then, set up a payment method for the products by Stripe. 

Click on the Elementor option where you will see a lot of widgets such as text, video, audio, and images. You can choose any to change the look of your website.
