WooCommerce

WooCommerce is an open-source eCommerce plugin for WordPress that turns a standard WordPress site into a full online store, handling products, checkout, payments, and shipping through a plugin-based architecture rather than a standalone platform. It powers a large share of small and mid-sized online stores because it is free to start and highly customizable through its plugin ecosystem, though that same plugin flexibility is also the most common cause of slow, unstable stores when left unmanaged. This page covers WooCommerce performance tuning, scalability, checkout reliability, and plugin cleanup based on our own WordPress development work. If your store is struggling to keep up with traffic or checkout is dropping orders, our WordPress development services page covers how we diagnose and fix it.
