Overlooked Shopify Features That Can Transform Your Business with Chris Singleton [Ep.160]

Shopify is a powerhouse in the eCommerce industry, with merchants running more than 1,000,000 businesses on the platform.

But Shopify is more than just a product listing tool. It offers thousands of apps and integrations to help you build a profitable eCommerce business.

In this episode, we're joined by Chris Singleton, the founder of Style Factory Productions, a site that provides in-depth reviews and comparisons of key business apps to hundreds of thousands of readers.

Chris reveals the 'hidden' Shopify features that many merchants overlook.

From Shopify's SEO tools and blogging features to its free email marketing tool and abandon cart feature, Shopify has a full toolkit to help you grow your business beyond a simple eCommerce store.

Chris also highlights the power of YouTube for eCommerce sellers. According to Chris,

"YouTube is a key SEO strategy for Shopify merchants. The benefit is that you're dealing with two search engines because your video appears in the Google search results and on YouTube. The quickest SEO win at the moment is publishing content on third-party platforms like YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn, etc, and using that platform to drive traffic back to your store."
