What do you like best about ShopWired?
ShopWired isn't just good at helping new business owners set up their new company website they also go above and beyond to make sure that the after-sales experience is top tier.
Whenever I have a question about the website or its further development I never get the firm 'NO' response that I have found with other platforms over the years.
I just start a Live Chat from within my Account and there's always someone there to sort out any issue on the spot or it is quickly escalated to the whole team who have a vast amount of experience between them.
So far I haven't hit an obstacle that we couldn't clear. It feels more like a collaboration rather than a subscription if that makes sense?
I especially like that you can choose from a selection of pre-designed themes that can easily be adapted to your specific business type.
What first attracted me to ShopWired is that I had a business idea but couldn't afford the potentially high costs of a dedicated Web Developer to code a unique website for my business idea.
So using pre-designed themes that I could later develop a unique website from was a must. That process also saved a lot of time for me to focus on building good Supplier relationships.
So far I haven't felt like my business has had to adapt to a rigid, limiting platform. This platform is adaptive and doesn't feel restrictive and therefore has spared me the headaches of the past.
I feel free to grow my business how I see fit and focus on that rather than get distracted and bogged down with the nonconforming platforms of the past.
In previous years I've found out that Developers tend to want to manage 'My Expectations', this has always led to an uncompromising disappointment. So far I'm pleased to say that ShopWired is the complete opposite.
I've been selling online for over a decade and this has been the most pain-free experience by far.
The last thing to add is that Google Search DOES rank my ShopWired theme website and realistically it's now down to me to market it in a way to increase traffic as I build my brand.
Therefore it's heartening to know I can concentrate fully on the marketing of the website in the knowledge that there is a dedicated team to help me with the website should I need it.

What do you dislike about ShopWired?
I'm struggling to find something I've run into that has caused any problems so far. However just a bit of advice to you: You may look at other platforms and their price points but consider that for a few extra pounds per month you get a UK-based responsive customer service that I certainly think is worth that nominal fee. Ask yourself how many times you've had to raise a support ticket for someone who is on the other side of the world that gets back to you a few days later?
My Company is based in the UK so it's been essential to me that I have the support that operates in the same time zone as me. That said, ShopWired runs a Live Chat until 10 pm GMT Mon-Fri so even if you're in another country there's still that window of opportunity to catch someone in Support.
